Sure they could. Will they be? Doubtful

You can simply lie. Same way we all get through a job interview

Peer to peer could solve the hosting/bandwidth issue. Just federate the network/index/front end for torrent-based streaming. Impose some ratio requirements for access and it’s infinitely scalable

Using satellite as their Internet fail over solution should rightfully hurt their business.

It hits harder as an insult in farendheit because it’s not hyperbolic

You must be having a wildly different experience than me then, because I don’t even understand how you can make that claim

That’s the opposite of my experience. Jellyfin just works and immediately exposes the content we’re looking for, plex tries overloading you with bullshit and burying your actual content

Their what now

2007scape is leaking

Skill issue. I had to learn how to do it

Or guessing it wrong, but now my train of thought is derailed and I forgot where I was going so now nobody gets to know

We have a winner

Some variant of “my house my rules” rant

Lmao I did the same thing today, trying to teach a particularly… ‘beginner’ user how to sign into outlook. I was going to have them sign in again in front of me, but without my help. It wouldn’t sign out so I just gave up

Yay toxic parenting

I wont cast a judgement one way or another on how to approach this, but just know that it is an incredibly common rule. Every girlfriend I had growing up had this same rule, or even more strict. For one I wasn’t allowed in her bedroom at all when I came over.

It sounds like your parents are perfectly including your identity in their decision. I know from experience that the rule sucks, especially when you aren’t even planning to do anything and just want to hang out in a comfortable space. But it is common, and quite reasonable considering how other parents might approach it.

TV’s are dirt cheap these days. Just sell and rebuy if you don’t want to move it

Does anyone stream directly from ffmpeg? I have a 24/7 music stream with a static background image and playlist, running headless off a raspberry pi, and I’d love to see what other people have come up with to expand the idea

Trust me bro

You mean one like the GPL?
