One night when we were driving home from a trip to South Carolina, my wife and I got pulled over for “having one taillight brighter than the other.” Absolutely pretextual bullshit.

Sell or get subpoena’d; tomayto, tomahto.

I have a vacuum sealer machine with dedicated counter space that I use for sealing things in bags pretty often, and a cabinet full of Mason jars that I use for everything (including drinking glasses). I just never think to put the two together!

I mean non-Free Software.

Well, maybe it’s less a “class” and more a “good ol’ boy’s club.”

When trying to explain that concept, I like showing people this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tc4ROCJYbm0&t=296

The one thing I’d add is to say don’t run a shell script from the Internet unless you’re damn sure that (a) you trust the entity providing it, and (b) you’re downloading via https and haven’t typo’d the URL.

He had added a Jellyfin repo to his apt sources.list file for some reason, which is weird and likely not the right way to do it these days. But it might have been in the past, so it could be OP was following some obsolete procedure (or one AI-hallucinated from an obsolete procedure).

We, The People.

It was headed for some important federal building in Washington DC

The US Capitol building (i.e. Congress), IIRC.

Apologies for misunderstanding your comment, that’s on me.

You weren’t the only one. Your comment and the other guy’s subsequent explanation helped me, too.

Labeling it as “SECURE” (implying the other option is insecure) is enough to make it seem underhanded to me.

In other words, it’s a dark pattern that tricks users into letting Plex MITM their connection.

Every non-Free Software will betray you eventually. It’s only a matter of time.

150,000 is 1.5 hundreds of thousands.

Daily reminder, Jimmy Carter willingly sold his peanut farm because his morality told him of his own viewpoints that it may be seen as unfair for a President to own business interests while serving the most important role of government. Which in his mind may come off as corrupt.

Well, that and he was complying with the Emoluments Clause. You know, that thing that should’ve seen Trump impeached on Inauguration Day – 2017, not even just 2025!
