some_guy,

It’s posted here. You saw the content without needing to make another clone of a super-specific Reddit sub.

You do know that multiple kinds of content can exist in the same community right? This isn’t a sorting/content organization competition.

some_guy,

Pretty liberal use of the word “cool” there

some_guy,

Do you think articles should include all relevant information in the title?

“Man’s home burglarized by criminal organization” is clickbait?

“Popular hotel burns in suspected arson” < clickbait?

“Senator wasn’t involved in assault, staffer says” clickbait too?

some_guy,

Or just don’t cut your hair if you can’t take care of it.

some_guy,

so your issue is not that you can’t access the server offline, it’s that you can’t log in while offline?

i have never needed to log in locally since the initial setup. it can also broadcast as a DLNA server which would be trivial to access without authentication.

you’re very opinionated for someone who is totally clueless on the subject.

some_guy,

I’m not sure why you think that’s the case. I use Plex entirely locally and have never had an issue when the internet was out. In fact my modem went kaput last year and I had a solid 2 days without internet connection. Plex didn’t even blink. The only thing I couldn’t access was Actor/Crew individual pages, as those don’t store metadata locally and are fetched on demand by the client.

realcaseyrollins, to moviesandtv

Netflix and Best Buy said adieu to discs — but with streamers deleting titles to cut costs, could DVDs and Blu-rays mimic the revival of vinyl and CDs?

some_guy,

Titles that have never been released on bluray (but did have a DVD release) are still noticably better on disc than streamed. And that is a surprising number of older TV shows.

It’s not even a subjective preference thing. Any layman could identify the physical media as higher-quality in a blind test.

If you’re like watching on a phone or small tablet I can understand why you would think they’re equivalent, but in any kind of home-theater environment (even a cheap-ass one) physical media will be obviously higher-quality in every scenario.

some_guy,

you’re unlikely to see any increase in quality between streaming and… DVD/Blu-ray

tell me you dont care about video quality at all without telling me you dont care about video quality at all.

it is incredibly easy in a blind a/b test to pick put a streamed title vs a native bluray title. by video and by audio (provided you are using something that isnt your shitty built-in TV speakers). im not sure why youre confidently making this assertion that literally anyone can test at home with basic equipment.

some_guy,

yeah i’m impressed you can make full-sentence comments with emojis

Discord Now Explicitly Bans Misgendering and Deadnaming Transgender People on the Platform (www.advocate.com)

Discord has expanded its Hateful Conduct Policy to explicitly include prohibitions against misgendering and deadnaming in a policy update. Accompanying this policy update, Discord has also implemented a comprehensive warning system to enforce these guidelines effectively.

some_guy,

Cool story bro. Nobody cares for your casual bigotry here.

some_guy,

Because you need to be sure she’s reacting “correctly”?

College Problems - Need Help

My college professor told us on the first day of class that attendance was optional. The class is very simple so I decided no not attend the second day, at which they announced the class actually was attendance mandatory. I did not know this until over a month into missing classes. Now, the class ended early, and having a higher...

some_guy,

Lesson learned - follow the syllabus 100% of the time.

I wouldn’t appeal this personally (you do certainly have that right and you know the situation better than anyone). In the grand scheme of things a B instead of an A won’t make much of a difference if you aren’t competing for top-tier Law or Medical schools post-grad. It will be a lot of bureaucracy that will ultimately come down to he said/she said.

You might have the best luck just showing up to the prof’s office hours and asking (informed) questions about the missed material. Building some rapport with the professor might open them up to some leniency, especially if you’ve shown that you’re dedicated to making up the material.

some_guy,

I miss vehicle deathmatch games. Interstate 76, Twisted Metal, Vigitlante 8, probably a few more I don’t remember too.

They all kinda vanished.

some_guy,

You sound like you host fun parties.
