South Korea’s National Security Act outlaws the praise and promotion of “anti-government” organisations.
Yikes. I’m not a fan of North Korea and I can get it if there’s some desire to prevent a fascist movement growing in SK, but this seems waaaay too broad.
in the u.s you don’t have to file if your income is under a certain threshold
You don’t have to but also if you’re under that threshold you would almost certainly be getting a refund of all of the taxes you paid that year. So I highly recommend filing even if you don’t need to
Oil in your pasta water does literally nothing, just skip it.
Ani.social user chiming in, lovely little instance. No drama and the local page is just cute art and episode discussions (admittedly most of the episode discussions are empty though).
It was a bug in that version of the distro IIRC, trying to install Steam would instead try to install the SteamOS desktop environment (or something along those lines). It has since been fixed to actually install the Steam client.
Obviously it was a bit silly he typed “Yes, do as I say” after seeing the message, but he was also literally following exactly what all the online guides said to do (other than the “Yes do as I say” part). Luckily it’s fixed now but I do think it was a really good demonstration of what the video wanted to see: “What might the average non-techie gamer face using Linux?”
Almost always this is a player issue as mentioned. I’ve had similar issues with some files where audio just doesn’t work on one player but works fine for another. Same with subtitles. Set to an external player like VLC and see if that fixes it. (For what it’s worth, I mostly access Jellyfin from my Chromecast and I have it set to prompt me for a player each time I start watching something, one of them always works but for my files it isn’t consistent which)
Pretending ChatGPT isn’t the biggest development in the history of commerce
Let’s not get ahead of ourselves here. Is it neat? Yes. Is it a useful tool? Yes (when they haven’t put a million restrictions and performance limitations on it).
Is it the biggest development in the history of commerce? Almost certainly not. LLMs are a highly-sophisticated game of mad libs, they work even better than many would expect (as Google learned when they bet against them) but they are not general AI or world-changing. It’ll have to be combined with a lot of other tech before it reaches the level we can say “biggest development in the history of commerce”
That explains a lot, then. When I was on Vlemmy before it was deleted “All” seemed a lot more populated, now I moved to a smaller instance and it seems a lot more repetitive.
It’s a shame it works that way since everyone says the “ideal” is a ton of small instances rather than big ones.
Thanks for the clarification!
Until someone subscribes, it doesn’t exist locally and posts don’t start to flow unless there is a subscriber.
So does this mean that if I’m browsing “All” I’m not actually seeing “All” but “All from the communities/instances members of my instance subscribe to”?
I found what really helps Jellyfin on my Chromecast is setting the player manually. There’s a setting to make it ask which player to use when starting a show and if one doesn’t work, 99% of the time the other one works fine.
Sometimes switching players doesn’t fix subtitles for me, in those situations I usually have to toggle subs a few times or restart the stream and they actually work.
In my opinion it’s a minor enough inconvenience given Jellyfin is 100% free and open source, whereas Plex is tracking you and charging you. But of course maybe your media is in some more difficult format than mine.
I’m not arguing one way or another but I want to clear up some very common misconceptions about US gun laws.
This is just blatantly untrue and I wish people would stop parroting it. If you go to any shop you need to pass a federal background check to buy any non-vintage firearm (pre-1899…not exactly a ton of those floating around). The exception here is private firearm sales, i.e. I go to Craigslist and sell a rifle or handgun. The law states the seller has to have no reasonable cause to believe they would be an unlawful possessor (weak, yes). With that said, almost half of the states (22 per Wikipedia) have implemented state-level laws requiring a background check for private sales.
Again, objectively untrue. You are not buying a firearm from any legal, licensed dealer in the US without going through a background check. And a violent criminal offense will get you barred from purchasing. For the 28 states without laws around private sales, the seller can be federally legally liable if they sell to someone that is not legally allowed to have a gun and they use it to commit crimes.
No, a child cannot legally own a firearm. The parent can purchase and own a firearm that they are allowed to use, but they do not own it. In many states if the child hurts themselves or others with such a firearm the parents will be held liable, many states have laws around safely storing firearms when children are around.
In most states if you don’t have a license to conceal carry and you do you are breaking the law and can be charged. I’ll say this one isn’t entirely false but heavily depends on your state.
A large part of why this issue gets nowhere is that neither side can even agree on what is true today, rather than what should be true to bring down the issue of violent crime. If one side says “They’re totally unregulated you can just buy one off Amazon and start blasting. We have to do something!” The other side is gonna think “Well they obviously have no idea what they’re talking about, no point in listening to what they have to say”
