Yeah, what you call numerous and be all impressed by is for the rest of the world kind of a "meh"

In other countries they know how to protest, I guess the American population has been brainwashed or something? If you hear "best countrah evah!" all day every day you might indeed be tempted to think your own farts smell like roses.

I don't care that it was the largest protest ever in the country that doesn't know how to protest. Your country is fucking my country. Your country is fucking all other countries in the world. Do something about that, please

That's Poe's law in action right there.

Everyone can use it, use it all they want however they want

Having said that: Large corporations shouldn't be able to profit endlessly off of my work for free, fuck that shit

I want there to be a difference between actual discrimination and just software not working the way it should be, or sometimes even physics.

Again as the example: facial recognition on people with extremely dark skin. The camera gets less light, less detail, it's literally physics causing the issue, NOT discrimination.

If cour the that needs to be fixed but that might mean that the camera needs a small light to help, for example. Again, this is not discrimination, it's just a consequence of having darker skin, doesn't make anyone less or more, it is what it is.

I really get uncomfortable when people start throwing around "discrimination!!!" on things like this, because it means that in my job as a software developer now suddenly I can be called a nazi because a software method wasn't done quite right

Don't assume evil where plain stupidity suffices

I will, once trump is gone and the entire world can return to some form of normalcy

I think the original commenter simply doesn't know how wrong he is

[–] phoenixz@lemmy.ca 4 points 8 hours ago

That is my point yes. Open Source projects must stop using these permissive licenses, it's allowed companies to enrich themselves by screwing over all internet users and it cost them nothing because of these licenses.

At least invest in your own damned software, assholes

Well doh, of course. Bad publicity is still publicity and a little controversy never hurt anyone badly.

Everyone and their mother is talking about these jeans commercials now and I guarantee you that the brand is making bank right now thanks to all these dweebs needing to behave the exact fucking crazy way as the right was doing with their conspiracy theory bullshit.

Stop being dumb, just let it go. Its a marketing campaign where if you strong enough red cords, ooohhh, Nazis! They selected a white girl because they needed something blue, so blue eyes, so yeah, that is mostly white girls due to genetics.

Had they found a pretty black girl with blue eyes they could have gone with that. Did the final selection went for a blonde, white girl because of trump? Who fucking knows and who fucking cares.

There are bigger issues that are blatant and right in your face

For example, we could all be talking about the Epstein files but curiously every news organization is now talking about this bullshit.

Trump tried starting wars, threatened WWIII with Russia, nothing worked to distract from the evidence that he's a pedophile. If only he had known that all it would take is a fucking dumb jeans commercial....

And this is not it.

Nowhere is any reference or indication about Nazis, last time I checked, that Sweeny girl has nothing to do with white power, racism, or Nazis, she just happened to be white.

It's about jeans/genes making you look pretty.

Now unless you're trying to tell me that, say, black people or Latinas cannot be pretty because of their genes, there is literally nothing wrong.

If you ARE telling me that, though, then I'd say you're the racist. And a creep.

 

As the title says.

Saving pictures and videos worked since a long time but since about a month or two, it would freeze up connect and make it crash.

Then a next version fixed it, then a subsequent version broke it again and it has been broken ever since, even after multiple new versions

Any idea when this might be fixed?

Edit: this is on Android v1.0.275 but has been broken in many other versions before that for at least like 2 months now

 

The last update broke a number of features:

Saving images will make the app

Block community or instance no longer working

Subscribe will constantly give "unsubscribed from..."

 

249 would break image saving with some backtrace about the error, the new update I kust received make the entire app freeze and then it just crashes to Android

 

This is super annoying, as I try to pinch gesture zoom in on an image, and I'll go out of the media back to the list again instead.

I'd like to click to already zoom in somewhat, making punch zoom even easier

If I want to get out, I'll press the back button on my phone, or the back button of connect

So I'm back with Netflix and Amazon. I'm kind of done with jellyfin at this point. I've been recommending it to everyone and honestly I'm not sure that I still would.

Jellyfin as a product simply doesn't work. There, I said it.

For a media system I'd hope for the basics to be able to play a movie or show with subtitles, selecting audio channels, and scrubbing and it to remember where I was left. I wouldn't even need posters and all that, I'd get my own subtitles, etc.

I have multiple TVs, but let's go with the old one with a chrome cast. I use my Android phone to cast a show episode. Scrubbing sometimes works. it works better than before because before it would just break everything to the point of the app requiring a reinstall. At least that's fixed now but scrubbing still is SLOW, 10 seconds ahead takes 20-30 seconds to do. Worse though, it borks up subtitles by leaving the subtitles that were there when you started scrubbing, and places the new ones on top of that. The only way out is to exit casting completely, kill the app, restart all from scratch. Obviously JF doesn't continue where I stopped (seriously, requests on that timeframe were made, it can't be that hard to register that, can it?) and so I need to scrub again which, you know, borks up subtitles. So I'll start just from the beginning, I can rewatch the same 5 minutes twice but it annoys the hell out of my wife.

Then, subtitles is a mess. The above, but also switching subtitles will cause similar issues. Don't touch anything when having subtitles!

Then: it's slow. It's godunholy slow. I have a 16 core and Rhyzen 5 cpu, 64gb men @3200mhz, 1tb M2 Samsung Evo 989 pro, and ~60tb over 3 exos drives. An AMD rx7800 XT finishes up the config. It's not the best of the best, but my system, u believe, ranks in the higher ranks of jellyfin installations

Jellyfin cannot play a movie or show without stuttering at least a few times, flat out freezing for minutes during shows, especially in the second episode for that day... If I run transmission in parallel, it just freezes up so much that it's undoable.

Logs don't indicate any major issue, I saw a freeze and had all logs on tail and literally saw no messages whatsoever during that freeze. System utilization was near zero.

Wife isnt tolerating jellyfin anymore and now I have Netflix and Amazon accounts again.

I understand it's open source software, you do what you can, but right now it simply isn't a system that is for the general public. It can be used by nerds like me who have the patience to deal with all the issues.

Edit: Really? 17 downvotes? I'm trying to tell you that the thing doesn't work and that I've spent plenty of time trying to fix it, reading docs, posting questions, nothing has fixed anything so far but can't have people talk about that, or what's wrong?

 

Happy to see that fuckcars is one of the first Reddit communities to appear on Lemmy for me!
