  • Totally agree. It sounds like something was lost in translation here by the final edit of potentially some run though a llm for proof reading to dumb it down enough to either just make it more consumable, more clickbait or realistic both.

    My guess is the actual research reported that it was 100s of packets per second (not screenshots) which is still a lot more than you would expect even for spyware. Either way it’s been well known that smart tvs are spyware ridden, I don’t need a paywalled service to tell me that.


  • Aaaaand

    Pop goes the AI bubble.

    Last stages of capitalism for tech is usually in the form of an ipo of some sort which is what this will lead to.

    There will be other cool shit obviously with integrations and tools that will hopefully trickle down to open source models but the writing is on the wall. This is a cash out and enshittify move.

    The best news out of it is we will start to see less and less “our company is Ai and we shoved Ai into said thing” as the companies late to the game will continue to shoot their shot until OpenAI has completely dominated the market and investors stop caring.


  • Honestly this sounds like a bit of a pickle. If I were in your situation I would just use one of the cellular carriers 5g internets. I personally use a T-Mobile 5g internet hotspot with a fresh tomato flashed nether 6700 plugged into it. Then I basically do all of my networking from that. Latency is a fair bit higher (usually about 30-50ms) but upload is significantly better than spectrum.


    1. Install watch on odysee extension.
    2. Make a odysee account
    3. Continue your normal habits of watching YouTube but being redirected to odysee when creators have posted there.
    4. hurt YouTube just a little bit.

    I’m so sick of hearing that odysee is only a nazi crypto scam. That content exists on every platform but by shitting all over every option that comes out and then whining when YouTube does more anti user crap is just ridiculous.

    You don’t need to just use odysee. You can use YouTube for your recommendations then be redirected for the content. Eventually when recommendations are there it will be an easy transition for the majority of people but until then, at the very least don’t step on the face of a working competitor that has good intentions.

    P.s. You don’t need to use the token, it was mostly just given to viewers and creators for free.




  • I wouldn’t say it particularly sucks. It could be used as a powerhouse hosting server. Docker makes it very easy to do no matter the os now a days. Really though I’d say its competition is more along the lines of ampere systems in terms of power to performance. It even beats amperes 128 core arm cpu at a power to performance ratio which is extremely impressive in the server/enterprise world. Not to say you’re gonna see them in data centers because price to performance is a thing as well. I just feel like it fits right into the niche it was designed for.


  • You make good points here for the beginner however there are better alternatives and solutions for basically everything you mentioned here. The biggest I want to address is conflicts on your system. Generally running servers on metal is just outright bad practice. Containerize. Always containerize. There are lots of great options. Docker, podman, Lxc, helm, flatpak… hell. Snap if you must. Running servers on metal is generally is just asking for trouble unless the system’s entire purpose is for that. Also the cg-nat situation. Personally been behind it for a few years but it’s not a problem as long as you have a reverse proxy tunnel in place. Not a hard fix at all.




  • Just to elaborate here. You are describing one implementation of a blockchain that provides a cryptocurrency. Blockchain is literally just another form of a database. It’s just that it can contain traits that would allow the database to be shared and distributed unlike typical databases. Currently there are some companies that are utilizing blockchain for their inventory systems. They aren’t using any more energy than they would with a typical system. They are just doing it to keep an unchanging record of past transactions which helps with fraud and loss prevention.

    P.S. Money laundering using a system that is publicly distributed and has every transaction involving usd paired with an ID, social security number and enough pictures of your face to make a 3D model is genuinely idiotic.





  • To add to this. Both parties told all other creators that all music that was made in this dispute would not be subject to copyright claims. So far all claims made from Kendrick’s label have been dropped which has allowed critics to listen freely and even remix and make work from the original work. Drake said the same was going to be the case for what he put out however in typical fashion Ovo/umg has claimed all content that contains any of drakes source material. I’m generally not into this kind of public beef but in basically every regard Kendrick is right and Drake is pretty much the most pure example of everything that is wrong with the music scene today.






  • Tons of good responses here. I’m surprised that nobody has brought up Tailscale though. It’s def the easiest vpn solution I have found. It’s got some great documentation and how to projects to get a home lab running and it’s got its own domain system baked in most of it being zero configuration. You can access mullvad vpn exit nodes straight from it, and set up those domains with ssl super easy e.g.

    sudo tailscale serve —https=443 localhost:8096

    That single command would allow any other devices connected to your Tailscale account to reach your Jellyfin using the domain “{serverhostname}.[tail-scale].ts.net” complete with a private reverse proxy and ssl cert.

    There are a few things to click around in tailscale on but it’s a extremely easy to use free application that has made my self hosted life significantly easier due to my system living behind multiple firewalls that I sadly have no control over.
