This seems like a pointless article, any country can cut an undersea cable if they wanted to, Russia does it regularly. Just because they made a purpose built machine to do it doesn’t really “shake up” anything, it just makes it easier/ quicker for them to do it instead of dragging an anchor or using explosives.

Of course now, if the cable is perfectly severed we’ll know exactly who did it.

Stick it to the man! Stop learning! /s

Of course, we could all be living in the matrix and nothing is real.

What is “zero” exactly? Scientists CAN prove unequivocally that the earth is a globe, there is no uncertainty and it is not an hypothesis.

Assuming “zero” is the number of people who don’t believe in an hypothesis, then I agree with you. Despite the overwhelming evidence there are people that believe the world is flat.

The beauty of science is you don’t have to believe in it for it to be real or true.

If it’s not provable by science, then I don’t believe it.

Run Home Assistant, add the integration, create a dashboard for your phone/tablet, never use the app again.

One of the layers of heck, you are stuck in a car park full of people who are trying to reverse in, but can’t do it on the first try.

Reasons you ended up there:

You work at McDonalds and you didn’t get the drive-thru order right.

You left when it was your turn to buy a round at the bar.

You change lanes into a gap just big enough for your car, then brake.

It’s the middle of summer and it’s hot, but you won’t let people turn on the A/C.

There isn’t going to be a document written by either organisation that says “we did it.” Even if they did, it would’ve been a tight group that decided it had to happen and nothing would’ve been written down.

I remember the fear mongering of the Cold War, the ozone layer depleting, and the AIDS epidemic.

Times were simpler back then, but I don’t think they were necessarily better.

No, Jellyfin has a server backend which manages the media and serves it up to the client frontends which support most modern operating systems like Windows, Linux and Android. See https://jellyfin.org/ for details.

I’d ditch the HTPC, and go for an Android based media player like the Shield, no moving parts, no keyboard/mouse and rarely requires an update. Had a HTPC for many years and anytime I wanted to watch something I had to mess about with it first before it would play.

I was a long time Kodi user from back when it was called XBMC.

About 5 years ago I got tired of messing about with managing media, editing config files and installing addons. Moved to Emby first, and now I am on Jellyfin. No media management required, the backend server does it all for me and the front end is great, never gives me any problems and plays everything. I run the front end on multiple Nvidia Shields with no performance issues.

I’d manage your media better with movies and TV in separate parent folders and not all mixed together. When you setup Jellyfin, you point it at a folder and tell it what media type it is. Mixing up different media types in the same folder structure just makes things harder than they need to be for no gain.

“You’re a wizard, Harry!”

All jokes aside, they look great.

I think we are past the tipping point now, it’s downhill from here and what we do to reduce carbon emissions will only determine how fast we go down that hill.

I’m pretty sure this was in the book of revelations.

Shit, I’ve thrown out stuff several generations newer than that because it was too old.

We can all throw shit at Reddit together.

I’ve got an iPhone 13.

I used to upgrade about every 2 years because that’s how long my contract was and there was usually some killer feature I wanted. Now, new releases only have incremental improvements so I’m not in any hurry to buy a new phone.

I’ll probably keep this phone for another year or 2 as there is nothing wrong with it, even the battery life is still great.

So I’d say iPhone sales are “collapsing” because of a lack of innovation in the market, cost of living pressures, and handset durability, they just last longer.

Ludicrous. If we were in a simulation we’d be erased by now because they would’ve done a factory reset and started again.
