  • Telemetry is one reason.

    Not having to worry about the service shutting down (Google Reader) is another.

    Synced read status is a common one as well.

    You may also use it in combination with another service to create RSS feeds for sites that dont have one.

    Honestly having it not just get killed like Google Reader is a big chunk of the userbase.


  • Edit: Completely misread things, I thought you had 192.168.10.0 and 192.168.20.0. Yes it would be the whole subnet for a /24, if you wanted less you’d go higher as mentioned.

    192.168.0.0/29 would include 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.7.

    /28 would get you up to 192.168.0.15.


    No, /24 is just 256 IPs.

    192.168.0.0/24 = 192.168.0.0 mask 255.255.255.0, or 192.168.0.1-192.168.0.254.

    If you want 192.168.0.0 through, say, 192.168.7.254, you need to cover 2k ip’s, which is a /21. The mask would be 255.255.248.0.

    A /24 would only be the last octet.









  • If you waited long enough to get past the account duration requirement and it was open source, where people could evaluate and comment on what they see, yes.

    If it were paid/closed source, then no, not without using that alt constantly to meet the requirements.

    The point in the first place was the large influx in promo postings that were made, as well as create filterable tags for users who are or are not interested in seeing AIT or AIP. It also means for those who create an AI involved project, no matter the level, aren’t being bombarded with low effort, one word disparaging comments.

    If you have another idea, or some way you believe a third person can have any realistic insight to provide a disclosure, you are welcome to create a meta discussion on it as there were for rules 7 & 8 already.







  • Its no different than when GarageBand was a thing - it was really accessible, so musicians who couldn’t figure out the tech side before (or didn’t want to pay money out for something) started using it heavily and really liked it. You also got an outsized influx of people who didn’t understand music who created a whole bunch of stuff that had… issues. You’d see people ask for feedback, and get constructive criticism, and they would just get pissed off at the lack of praise.

    Which led to every time someone newer posted something they made, a bunch of comments about how horrible it was that people were pumping out garbage with GarageBand. The scale was much smaller obviously, but the results are the same as now imo.

    I think some will start to us LLMs as a tool to get answers (instead of a stackoverflow link that is marked duplicate and the old post is gone or uses horribly outdated libraries), some will get lost thinking they are geniuses with unique prompt mastery, and others will move on. Time will tell though.


  • Eh, I think it depends.

    In terms of display and content management, even how the client apps work, I’d say Jellyfin is far, far ahead.

    Plex’s only advantage (to me) would be remote access, and even then I’d say its just how accounts are handled. Which is only good when Plex auth is working properly, and an absolutely awful experience when its not.

    I like having SSO in front of JF, I think its a much better experience. Now I just need to figure out how to get my kids to use SSO without a device… Which I’m leaning toward an NFC reader and a tag for each of them, maybe in a toy or something they can tap to a reader. TBD.
