Can’t everyone just run as Republican? Then vote whatever you actually want.

Maybe if you’re stupid and don’t go directly for the billionaires

Now guide your parents through installing Jellyfin on their TV so they can connect to your instance.

That’s why people get Plex.

Step 1: lying to congress should be punishable immediately.

Also refusing to answer a clear question directly.

And even if you decide to go for modal editors, Helix is a lot better out of the box

My view is that it’s 50-50

50% they know it’s a political (and maybe actual) suicide to go against Dear Leader

50% is that they get insider tips for polymarket etc before major Donny T announcements and make MAD money with safe bets on the market

I always put 1:1 beef and black beans in my chili.

Basically the local models don’t (and can’t) contain the full knowledge of the universe.

BUT they can call tools pretty well and if you give the harness the capability to search Wikipedia for example, it becomes a lot smarter

Qwen3.5 and Gemma4 are the best ones for tool calling that don’t need massive amounts of memory

Nothing you can run with affordable hardware. The SOTA stuff requires hundreds of gigabytes of memory - and not RAM, GPU memory.

But you can try with stuff like gpt-oss or qwen coder

Republicans.

It’s not just Donny, the Republicans in congress could stop him the second they wanted to. But they don’t want to and we must not forget it - ever

His star was just rising and the way he died was so fucking stupid and preventable.

No drugs or partying, just a piece of shit American car…

I do run Jellyfin too, it’s pretty handy at getting metadata for stuff locally so I have something outside of Plex’s internal databases.

And IIRC I have used Jellyfin in the past to watch some more esoteric stuff that Plex (and its official clients) couldn’t play.

But there’s no way in hell I’m opening it to the outside world.

I paid 79€ or something for Plex Lifetime well over a decade ago and it’s by far the best bang for buck I’ve ever got.

It’s also dead simple to share it with friends and acquaintances safely. I know how to manage VPN tunnels and all that shit. I’m not setting that up for my aunt who lives 4 hours away. We did manage to get Plex running on her TV over the phone though.

A 20€ plan of Claude Code for a month will teach you all of it.

It’s pretty much just scripting ffmpeg and feeding the screenshots to a local model via an API (or use a CLIP model)

I have a script that uses yt-dlp to get subtitles off a YouTube video and summarises the main points for me with a language model so that I don’t have to watch a 20 minute top10 list video that could’ve been a buzzfeed article.

The whole thing is fully vibe engineered too.

A HIPAA violation is a death sentence to a company, along with massive fines.

There’s no incentive for them to fuck around

I built a system that translates subtitles from English to my native language and it beats cheap-ass “official” translations 9/10

It even gets colloquial terms and phrases right, adapting to the correct song for example - something a human translator working for minimum pay usually won’t bother
