Yeah voting is largely useless. But the gallows don’t happen without a revolution, which doesn’t happen without people getting in the streets (protest).

I’ve always used claw grip. Just feels the best for FPS.

What opened your eyes to what's happening in Palestine?

We’re a group of activists in a Western country where most have been brought up with either “Israel = good, Hamas = bad” or “It’s a sad, but unsolvable conflict between two equal sides”. The media heavily skewed to the Israeli perspective, and our politicians want to condemn protests in support of Palestinians....

Hamas is a direct result of Israel’s actions. If Israel hadn’t carried out an apartheid for the last 70 years Hamas wouldn’t even exist. It doesn’t help that Israel directly funded Hamas in favor of secular liberation groups.

If you go the full Linux desktop route, I recommend installing a hypervisor like proxmox to make it easy to spin up and manage VM’s and containers off the bare metal.

A lot more work to setup than a NAS like Synology, but having some more control over the setup and tailoring it to your needs makes it worth it imo.

I’m not all that familiar with Debrid and you’re not exactly clear on what the issue is. But I will mention that I don’t think jellyseerr will work for you in this setup. Jellyseerr is meant to work with sonarr/radarr. It looks like to request content you have to add it to your watchlist in Plex instead.

As for VPN, isn’t the point of Debrid to avoid torrenting and direct download only? VPN probably isn’t necessary, but if you’re paranoid then just make sure only the Debrid rclone is going through the VPN, you don’t want Plex to go through the VPN as then you won’t be able to connect to it from your LAN.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

You don’t need jellyfin and Plex. They both do the same thing, so just pick one.

And per the torrenting; isn’t the point of using Debrid that you’re NOT torrenting? You’re letting the service provider do the torrenting for you and they just serve up the file to you via direct download over https. And in this case, your IP isn’t exposed in the same way it is when you torrent.

Soooo whats the point of this ? Is it supposed to stop you from pirating the content from their sites . If so how exatcly when you can just literaly record screen ? I honestly struggle to understand the purpose of this.

Well, it kind of depends on the exact type of DRM being used. But yeah, some types of streaming DRM can be circumvented with a screen capture, but these will always be worse quality. There are two types for movies and shows you’ll see online when the source is a streaming site, either WEB-DL or WEB-Rip. WEB-Rip is sourced via a screen capture, I’m not super familiar, but there exists a standard called HDCP which is supposed to protect the content at the hardware/HDMI level. My understanding is this is largely ineffective as the HDCP master encryption keys have been in the public for quite some time. WEB-DL is when the raw video/audio is downloaded from the streaming provider and decrypted through some means, this is where defeating the browser-based (often Widevine) DRM often comes into play.

Within the confines of capitalism I would probably agree. But under socialism, production happens independently of capital accumulation.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Even if we suppose that’s true, you’re still failing to illustrate how capital is necessary for production under socialism.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Given the context of the meme being a picture of Karl Marx, I was using the Marxist definition of capital. Marxists.org provides a pretty digestible definition: www.marxists.org/glossary/terms/c/a.htm

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

While certainly capitalist, Denmark and Sweden use the nordic model which tends to lean pretty social-democrat/welfare-state.

Not to mention, much of bribery under capitalist states is legalized and codified. For example, I’m guessing their study didn’t consider Super-PACs as a form of corruption or bribery. Even though that’s clearly what they are.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Lol, there’s plenty of opportunity to make money under socialism. You just have to do the labor. Under capitalism, however, there exists opportunity to derive money from other people’s surplus labor value, for example, I can pay a worker $4 to make a thing that requires $1 in supplies and sell that for $10. That difference of $5 is stolen surplus value from the laborer. Socialists seek to abolish this parasitic relationship.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Yes, that is how it works under capitalism.

Under socialism however, the state funds labor based on needs and/or desires for the output of that labor (the commodity). In this case, the money isn’t used for the goal of making more money, therefore, this isn’t capital at all. And yet, the labor happens and the commodity created. Therefore, the production is independent of the capital.

Lootboxes are legalized gambling for minors. So yeah, no shit it works. Just because a thing is profitable doesn’t make it good. The opioid epidemic proved very profitable, but just like gambling for kids, doesn’t make it a thing we should accept or want for our society.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Fair enough, I’m certainly not about to disagree on the profitability of gambling (for the house specifically).

The article opens with “what about America’s response to 9/11?”. JFC, what a shitty justification. America was clearly wrong to war crime all over Iraq just as Israel is in the wrong for warcriming all over Palestine. I refuse to “both sides” imperialists and their victims. Frankly, “both sides” is the trap one should avoid.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Yes, first was Afghanistan. But the Iraq invasion was still under the “war on terror”. Besides, I was simply referring to the author’s argument:

But he added that we had to consider what the US did when attacked on 9/11: it invaded Iraq, with 200,000 [his figures] killed in three years.

I don’t know for certain, but I think you’ll ultimately have to decide between either low power consumption or 4k transcoding. I doubt you’ll be able to achieve both.

DrJenkem, (edited )
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

And you’re able to transcode 4k with that? 1080p with hardware offload isn’t surprising, but 4k really requires some extra horsepower.

EDIT: Maybe I’m wrong, seems like quicksync even on a Celeron has gotten pretty good.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Yes it’s piracy. And it’s likely illegal depending on your country. But I don’t think it’s unethical.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Get a raspberrypi (or similar sbc), second hand computer, or a NAS and host it yourself. You’ll have to pay for hardware and power, but assuming you already have an Internet connection, that’s it.

Same, but I’m still eagerly waiting for someone to do the genre better then Tarkov. But so far, nothing has scratched the itch like Tarkov.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Marathon was a bit before my time, but I definitely agree, the art style on the trailer for the new marathon looks really cool. But between cod dmz, marauders, the cycle frontier; I’m just a bit skeptical that anyone can properly replicate what makes Tarkov such an interesting and addicting game style.

That being said, definitely hoping for some proper competition to Tarkov as it has some serious issues that I don’t see getting fixed anytime soon.

There can be some significant downside to a black market though. De-regulation could pose additional health risks to users as the product may be exposed to unknown and untested chemicals. Not to mention the additional violence and related crimes that always seem to accompany a black market. Prohibition didn’t work for alcohol. Prohibition isn’t working for Weed. Why do we think it will work for nicotine?

Tankie usually refers to Marxism-Leninism (as well the ideologies that derived from it such as Maoism). But there are communist ideologies that don’t derive from ML such as Orthodox Marxism, trotskyism, libertarian Marxism, bulshevism, etc.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

no it usually refers to whatever the fuck the person posting it seems to think it is, there is not a coherent label for it.

Why are you letting libs define everything? You and I both know they’re dumbasses and shouldn’t be taken seriously.

Oh cool, which societies use those?

Anyone could have said the same to Marx about communism at any point in his life, as he died before the October revolution.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Speculation and also not relevant.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

It’s speculation because you don’t know what the future holds. And just because you’re not interested in a particular ideology or don’t think it has merit doesn’t make it any less communist.

My only point is that words do in fact have meaning, Marxist-Leninism is not synonymous with communism. Therefore, one can be anti-tankie without being anti-communist.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

Nope, just trying to have a rational, good faith discussion.

DrJenkem,
@DrJenkem@lemmy.blugatch.tube avatar

I don’t see how acknowledging that other branches of communism and Marxism exist is idealism, bad faith, or irrational.

Pretty sure https is a requirement for federation. Not sure about non-standard port number, but I would try and move to 443. I know you mention in a comment port 443 is already in use, in which case, I recommend setting up a reverse proxy (I like nginx-proxy-manager), and configure a subdomain for the lemmy instance.

I have half a mind to start releasing cracks just so there’s 1 cracker who isn’t a fucking bigot.

EDIT: btw, didn’t Voksi get arrested back in 2018? And EMPRESS started releasing cracks in like 2019. So are we to believe that Voksi goes to jail for a year, and immediately comes out and starts cracking again, all without receiving another visit from the feds? Doubt.

EDIT2: lol here’s Voksi’s response: lemmy.dbzer0.com/post/2218172

Fuck EMPRESS and SKIDROW, SKIDROW for dragging Voksi into the petty bullshit and both of them for their childish, edgleord bullshit.
