you certainly won’t regret being bitten by 50 asps

Fixed.

Yes but what about the horrible things Biden is doing that Trump will also do plus a fuckton more?

Yes. That’ll be $152, please.

With desperation, shouldn’t that really be $10 by now?

This just reminded me how much I miss simpsonsshitposting :(

Wouldn’t the better move be the exact opposite? If you really want to move go for it, but barrier to entry only gets lower as time goes on, not higher.

I don’t know what “scramble” you would need if you did move to Jellyfin. If your library and setup is already working on Plex, why wouldn’t it just be a matter of installing Jellyfin, adding the library folders you already use with Plex and letting everything scan in? Ask your users to create accounts and add them?

And if it’s not that simple, then it’s hard to argue that it’s on the same level as Plex, isn’t it? Who even knows what the future holds? If Plex eventually collapses, Jellyfin might not even be the best solution. More time allows them to continue to improve it, or other solutions to emerge.

Plex literally has no purpose outside of the core library product. The other revenue streams exist to fund the core product, and it’s not a public company. AFAIK, Elan is still the creator, founder and CTO of Plex. If he leaves or they make moves to go public, then I’ll begin the arduous task of clicking on an installer 5 times and adding some folders to a new service.

For now, I think I’m good.

Windows Phone 7 was 2010 and Windows 8 was 2012. iOS 7 was 2013, with macOS 10.10 Yosemite in 2014, and Material Design coming a few months later.

I know it’s fashionable to hate on Apple here on Lemmy but those of us with memories know that Apple was chided on being late to the party, and iOS 6 & Mountain Lion were mocked as being behind the times and overly skeuomorphic.

I remember the felt tables in Game Centre, the tape deck in Podcasts and the linen background in the multitasking switcher and Notification Centre being frequently cited as dated and over-the-top.

You could argue that their influence or trendsetting may have helped to lock in the flat design trend for the next decade, but they under no circumstances “started” it. That’s blatant rewriting of history.

To the contrary they were actually one of the biggest pushers of skeuomorphic interfaces up until Forstall was ousted and Ive took the reins of Software UX. A change that was made because people were mocking the dated skeuomorphic iOS UI and the lack of consistent design language through the OS.

To be fair the jacket could have also been from one of her brothers. She had 15 brothers so she knows how to handle herself.

We’re just warming ourselves by the fire.

With the worst controls imaginable to boot :)

That’s not the reason, it’s because the constant removal & reinsertion of the cartridge across attempts to get it working causes the pins on the inside of the console to scrape against the contacts on the cartridge enough to remove some corrosion and form a proper connection. Saliva and the blowing had little or nothing to do with it.

The proper method is to use contact cleaner, rubbing alcohol or an eraser to remove the corrosion from the contacts on the cartridge. This is basically the same thing but instead of scraping off the corrosion with the console cartridge slot pins, you’re removing it evenly and cleanly.

Obviously this won’t be 100% in every area in the world, but even in your own example you listed another cheaper franchise right nearby, therefore it is not the only option.

I haven’t been everywhere but I live in Canada and I’ve been to the US, UK and Southeast Asia and in all of those places this is true. There are towns that will literally just have a Subway or similar cheap franchise, but places with a McDonalds will almost always have another option.

This is just categorically untrue. People go to McDonalds because they want to, even if they may not want to admit it.

A McDonalds franchise is, by far, one of the most expensive franchises to own and operate. They have strict rules on where you are allowed to open one and startup costs are in the millions, most are owned by investment groups and people who own multiple franchises.

If you have a McDonald’s, you have a market. So you most certainly also have a Subway, Pizza Hut, Wendy’s, etc. Some of those franchises literally just plant themselves wherever a McDonalds is placed because it’s cheaper to do that then it is to do the market research yourself.

Yeah but the difference is there is no dictionary definition that supports that definition of feminism. It’s just an interpretation. You could say the same thing about veganism as being a philosophy that animals are superior to people. That’s a more direct metaphor and you would be just as wrong, and no dictionary would agree with you.

Any “ism” will have multiple ways to define it, and those who coin a term don’t get to define its evolution. If you want to take the “GNU/Linux” approach and insist everyone else is using the word wrong then go for it. But in modern parlance, “vegan” is frequently if not almost always used to refer to the diet, whereas “veganism” does evoke the stricter definition you’re touting.

The dictionary disagrees with you: https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/vegan

Being vegan is a lot of things to a lot of people. It’s not only about animal suffering. This is true for some people but plenty of people are vegan for health reasons.

We can exchange them for a wobbly CD rack and some of those rancid meatballs.
