Okay, but aren’t there more than 1 copy of the books they get their hands on? Or do they steal from museums?

Good

I just built a PC with 64GB Ram Corsair Vengeance 2 months ago. Paid 250€, quite expensive IMO (was used to more like 50€ ten years ago). But who pays 1000€???

For most Europeans, America includes north and south.

Then don’t call me European :o

Which potentially confuses everyone who isn’t US American.

Such a confusing headline. They don’t want to live in America, yet they stay in Canada?

And nothing of value was lost

You can use Jellyfin with wireguard and still have what Plex does. Unless you want to run an open streaming service (which would probably be illegal in most countries anyway).

90% of Plex users probably don’t need what Plex does and would be happy with Jellyfin.

Don’t expose jellyfin to the internet and it won’t be hacked. But you are forced to make a Plex account, if you want to use Plex.

Late stage capitalism of course

I’ve started using AI on my CTOs request. ChaptGPT business licence. My experience so far: it gives me working results really quick, but the devil lies in the details. It takes so much time fine tuning, debugging and refactoring, that I’m not really faster. The code works, but I would have never implemented it that way, if I had done it myself.

Looking forward for the hype dying, so I can pick up real software engineering again.

I once tried to walk to the Rome airport Ciampino. There was a metro station behind it, you could see the airfield but had to circle it to get to the entrance (1h walk). Walked south until I reached the highway. Had to turn back and walked north until another highway. Had to get the bus and nearly missed my flight. Will never go there again.

Good thing is, you don’t need to use it. Bad thing is, it affects reality.

I don’t get it. AI is a tool. My CEO didn’t care about what tools I use, as long as I got the job done. Why do they suddenly think they have to force us to use a certain tool to get the job done? They are clueless, yet they think they know what we need.

Sounds like my homelab which lives as a docker compose file in a git repo.

And much easier to implement than self driving cars

Stuff like this doesn’t shock me anymore. I just assume the worst case for everything and I’ve already accepted that we are fucked. I’m just hoping to die without pain.

5.5 wizards of oz?

But isn’t Taj Mahal located there?
