Hopefully the next one is permanent

I’ve been searching all over and haven’t found anything yet. The only answer seems to be to directly open up the Plex database in sqllite and navigate the schema myself and figure out how to export the specific tables and fields I want in some usable format. Once I have that, there are tools to generate .nfo files. 

I think they are great if it’s about 40% talk and 60% socialize. The point of talks should be to stimulate a conversation that happens in the hallway. If it’s just one way content absorption, that could’ve been done remotely. 

I desperately miss the networking and socializing and the people I met and the interesting conversations that I could not have planned for. I hope eventually my company starts sending us again.

I’ll have the chicken then.

Just started my switch last weekend! Jellyfin is amazing so far. Just need to figure out how to export all the Plex metadata and posters to .nfo files.

But I would definitely take a shit in that helmet

Right? Why is this news?

Duh, of course it’s not. Even the systems with Lidar and Radar are running into pedestrians. Tesla relies entirely on cameras that can’t see through fog or glare. It works only in ideal conditions and situations, and fails very quickly in all the situations a car would encounter in the real world. 

Missed opportunity to name these “energon cubes”

I adore this.

Always check your sources…

They literally gave an award to Charles Koch.

The Current is owned and operated by TradeDesk, the largest ad platform outside of Google. UID2 is their own initiative. So to say this article is biased is… mild.

There’s something problematic that underlies this that we as a society should all be worried about. It’s been a long time since you could really trust a corporation to be honest with you or to take care of you, maybe never. But you could at least trust the people you worked with and for to be good humans and do the right thing even if it wasn’t the profitable thing. It seems like those days may be gone, where human decisions still had room inside a company that is squeezing everyone for profit.  The human decency is gone from work. The managers that fought for their people have hung up their gloves. Anyone can be laid off, remotely, with no consideration for what it means to them and their family when they lose a job.

They will be told it wasn’t about their performance, which means there wasn’t anything they could have done about it. They are basically told they were powerless to keep their job. That the thing which is so fundamental to their survival on earth and their identity as a person is completely out of their hands and can be ruined on a whim by someone who doesn’t even know their name. By someone who refers to them as a “resource” or a “headcount.”

So we should not be surprised when workers have absolutely zero loyalty to the company, and that they are completely jaded about anyone they work with caring about them beyond what they deliver.

It’s not just that we have created a depressing, impersonal, immoral, spiral-of-death workforce. It’s that we have taught everyone not to trust the people in their professional lives and that kindness is no longer profitable.

How about no, ok YouTube?

Oh no! … Anyway…

How can they say it has worked when no one except the media and people that work there actually call it that? 

You’re right. Cause I deleted that app months ago.

“They must have sent one DM” - so any rando that has sent an unwelcome DM can follow it with a call?

Good. Jump in.

This is honestly a masterpiece

Stupid bastards. I hope Apple and WhatsApp and Signal all just turn off service in the EU. Let the users eat these assholes alive when their apps stop working.
