It still functions as a thermostat. You simply can’t access the smart features like presence sensing (to automatically turn your system off when you’re not home) or cloud control, (so you can’t adjust the temperature from your phone anymore). But it’ll still continue to function as a dumb thermostat. You set the temperature at the unit, and it holds said temperature until you change it.

Jellyfin can use .m3u playlists for live TV. It’s a bit of work to get it going, but it is possible.

It's a rest/do shit at home/Dr appt day.

In other words, you’re using your vacation time to sleep. Which means the headline is accurate. Americans are in a weird limbo where they have juuuuust enough vacation time to feel like they have enough. But not enough to actually plan any big trips, and not enough money to actually afford it. So they just end up using it to get an extra day off once or twice a month, to be able to catch up on all the shit they are behind on in their personal lives.

Because the 40 hour work week was made with the intent of having one adult working to support the household, while the other adult took care of the errands and chores. But since wages have stagnated, families can’t afford to live off of just one income anymore. So both adults end up working, which means the household suffers.

Just make serifs for the I standard, even with sans-serif fonts.

Yeah, “we’ve spared no expense” is a dramatically ironic line in the book, because the reader sees Hammond cutting costs at every single opportunity. Every single time Hammond drops that line, it’s almost immediately preceded or followed by an example of him cutting corners to save money.

Book Hammond is sort of a cross between Trump and Musk. He takes all of the worst techbro “I want to sound smart by telling people I’m an engineer, but I’m actually an idiot with zero engineering education. But I hold the purse strings so I can tell the engineers how to do their jobs” aspects of Musk, and combines it with Trump’s infamous “do it my way (as cheaply as possible; we won’t even pay a lot of the people who worked on it) or you’re fired” business attitude. The man is a bully who threatens to ruin anyone that doesn’t go along with him.

Nedry was a good example of that. Nedry had to bid on the contract basically blind, because they wouldn’t tell him anything about the project until after he won the contract and signed an NDA. They just told him it was a basic database management program, so he bid the job as such. All of the park automation stuff was revealed after he won the contract. And Hammond basically pulled a Vader “I am altering the deal. Pray I don’t alter it further.”

Yeah, plenty of indie games do really well on mobile formats. Slay the Spire, Balatro, Vampire Survivors, etc… All of those have really basic click-and-drag controls, which means they translate to touchscreen really well. Or if you’re willing to use a Bluetooth controller, (I keep one in my bag), then games like Dead Cells or emulators.

Every single statement they have made about the topic should be admissible as evidence to be used against them in court during sentencing. Every single time they have suggested stricter punishments should be compiled into a list and tacked onto their sentence.

Even MAGA isn’t safe. There have been a lot of faces eaten by leopards, and they haven’t all been left of MAGA. If anything, this really just proves that being the token friend doesn’t protect you. Being “one of the good ones” isn’t good enough. The only thing that matters is conformity, and things like non-conforming race, gender, or sexuality will be punished regardless of who you voted for.

Also fairly common with cops to not live inside of their own precinct. Because nobody wants to be the neighbor who hands out tickets. I know a cop who does stand up comedy, but she specifically avoids doing any comedy inside of her own jurisdiction. Because her interactions are her standup content, and there’s a non-zero chance that the person she’s telling a story about could be in (or have friends in) the audience.

Yes. You only need to pay if you’re connecting via their relay or trying to use the remote hosting functionality. But since a VPN would land you inside of the network, you’d be fine. You’d probably need to dig into the plex settings to specify that the VPN subnet is LAN traffic. But after that, you should be good.

I mean, you just listed the most insecure way to host Jellyfin. Poking a hole in your firewall will technically work, but that doesn’t mean it’s the correct way to do things. A good setup would use a reverse proxy, and some sort of authentication wall like Authentik or Authelia.

All of that would only take about 15 minutes for someone who knows what they’re doing. But the vast majority of people setting up Jellyfin for the first time won’t know what they’re doing. And seeing the inevitable “lol just open your firewall” comments only serves to scare them away, because even the noobs have heads that’s the wrong way to do things.
