It sounds like you’re trying to do too much manual stuff. Anything self-hosted is rather complex by default. But, it is designed to be simple to manage and install, as long as you use the tools intended for it. Jellyfin is packaged in all sorts of ways, and each way aims at different use cases. If it’s going to run on your daily driver, best use docker to keep your desktop and the server separated, else it might complain of that sort of library compatibility issues.

I also tried tailscale in a docker container as a subnet handler and realized I was out of my depth. Net engineering is abstract and hard. There’s a reason there are pros making bank just doing that for big corps.

Followed a way simpler setup. Now tailscale runs on the server bare metal and podman handles the routing automatically. I just use the magicDNS address given by tailscale and everything just works as intended. All my services are available, and apps run no issue, no matter where I am as long as I’m connected to tailscale. I will make the setup more complex as I learn more and acquire the need for more features. But so far this has met all my expectations.

It looked like they were mimicking cars to me, not mice. Not saying that it wouldn’t be a cool concept if it has an optical sensor. But they didn’t show any visual feedback to imply they were controlling any kind of cursor. If that was the implication, it’s obvious it was a rushed marketing piece.

Which mouse thing? they seem to be exactly all the same inputs the Switch 1 already had.

I’m not attacking your experience. Good for you, keep enjoying it. I’m just saying that it is not universally good for everyone, it would do us all good to avoid erasing other’s experiences or invalidating their emotions.

I also didn’t say it is creepy to see what your friends post. I’m saying that it is creepy that Facebook gets to see everything you do in your personal life. Remember that meta trains AI on what you post. At least with messaging you can use end to end encryption if you want to.

Maybe it’s just me, but that always struck me as a theater of connection, not actual connection. I know all my friends kids, even those who live abroad. Not because of an internet social network, but because we actually talk to each other on the regular, and share pictures and video calls, directly, personally. Not informally and creepily through a capricious algorithm. My good wishes to my friends and family on special occasions go directly to them, we don’t need a middle man to choose when and where they are going to see those things, and I don’t need to perform connection for people I barely talk to. Remember that the flip side of the coin is that social networks cause isolation by making all interactions feel impersonal and distant. Facebook literally caused a loneliness crisis amongst young people, who felt compelled to compete for attention and approval, distorting their expectations, altering their sense of self-worth, exposing them to abuse. Internet social networks have a very dark side.

It is proprietary, only the Authenticated Transfer protocol is open. Thus far saying it is decentralized is a controversial topic, depends on the definition of dencentralization. A regular user can only hope to host a Personal Data Server, without any real or consequential power over the network, though. Relays are not practical to be hosted by anyone but huge companies. And even then, the content and data is still under absolute power of Bluesky.

For example, if a Mastodon server decides to censor something and you don’t agree with said decision, you can change servers and still access the content and participate on the Activity Pub stream. But, if BlueSky decides to censor you or someone else, you are out of luck. Even if you host you own server, the canonical repository of the network activity is under absolute power of BlueSky.

You could host your own AT network, but it is not clear how or even if it will be able to interact with other AT networks or the canonical BlueSky network.

It also differentiates it from Bluesky. It was just Twitter’s endeavor to spearhead decentralization, just like Threads. Jay Graber has Bluesky’s users by the balls and at their whims just like Musk has Twitter. Anything proprietary and for profit will always eventually enshittify. Threads was born already enshittified and Bluesky is on the early part of the curve.

None since I don’t have access to my self-hosted server at the moment due to personal circumstances, so I shut it down. I miss my server.

I love this graph because of how succinctly it summarizes info. But I also hate this graph because it is missing like 10 or 15 other women he has dated of several ages that break the neat pattern. Also, it hides how only like two of those relationships were truly serious, the rest are gossip and tabloid speculation from having seen him “next to them”. It is all very speculative. He does have a weird thing for younger women, but I think that part of it is that most single women on his social circle are going to be aspiring and upcoming super models.

The buzz word is not aimed at the regular gaming nerd. It is aimed at gaming nerds who are also developers. Universal blue, the project behind Bazzite, Bluefin, and Aurora, aims to market to developers to use their systems first, on the basis of the tech backend. So then they make the cool FOSS things that the nerd public can use. Cloud native just means that something is engineered and made to make use of the container based devops pipeline.

For example, an atomic immutable OS that is meant to be developed and distributed via the container infrastructure (this is what Universal Blue is). So, instead of working on making an OS the regular way, collecting packages and manually connecting and tidying up absolutely every puzzle piece so it fits together, then pushing it through the installer packaging wizard, etc. This OSs are made by taking an already existing distribution, in this case Fedora atomic distros (but this is by no means mandatory), then customizing some things. Like installing libraries, applications, firmware, kernels and drivers. Then putting it all into a container image, like you would do with a docker or a podman server image. This way, on the user side, they don’t need to install the OS, instead they already have the minimal atomic system handling framework and just copy and boot into that OS image. This automates a lot of the efforts required for bundling and distributing an OS, and it makes new spins on existing distros really fast and efficient to make. It also means that users don’t need to be tech savvy about stuff like directory hierarchies or package management, and updates, installs, upgrades can all be automated to the point of the user barely even noticing them.

On a similar note, these distros, as development workstations, are usually pre-configured to make use of a container based dev pipeline. Everything is flatpacks and development is handled all via docker, pods, etc. Keeping the system clean from the usual development clutter that sediments over time on a traditional development cycle. As a happy coincidence, this makes the dreaded “works on my machine” issue less prevalent, making support of software a tad easier.

“I am being censored!” Screams man who owns media outlet and his every word gets covered by media and spread to every corner of the world.

You know, to make money in a gold rush, don’t dig, sell shovels.

Ok, I’ve actually debated with myself whether to post a comment on this question or not. There is a lot to unpack on this question, and as a matter of fact, Lemmy might not be the most appropriate space to talk about such a complex topic at length. I will try my best to answer in a balanced and rational manner. I’m a psychologist, have read all those experiments and papers, and I can say that maybe there are other points of view and deeper understanding you can approach from on these topics before casting such a wide negative opinion on a whole field of science.

Just to point something out of the gate, psychology is indeed one of the most misrepresented sciences in popular science communication. It is very difficult to explain in lay terms that what we know, experimentally, is from a really recent and young science. Psychology only really took off at the turn of the twentieth century, and just like most sciences, we have changed so much in the past 20 years alone that the public has had a very hard time keeping up with what happens in academia. If you were to scrutinize chemistry back when psychology was barely making its first steps, from today’s perspective, you would think they were all wackos. We didn’t even had a coherent model of the atom, radiation wasn’t even known as a phenomenon and Pluto hadn’t been dreamed, much less observed by the human eye. Look at medicine in the 19th century and by today’s standard they were all butchers. But the point is that, they weren’t malicious. Scientists were still trying to act in good faith with the limited knowledge available at the time, while still trying to expand said knowledge.

As a result, someone like Simon Whistle—who is not a psychologist but educated in business and law, and just a comedy media communicator—is probably working entirely on popular science’s musings of already old science papers. Because that’s what science does. We change what we affirm to be, probably, the truth as new experiences, ideas and theories are accrued in the collective understanding of reality. So, are there things that psychologist has been wrong about? Yes, absolutely. That’s what science is. But changing the general masses ideas about it is an entirely different matter, and it goes at its own rhythm and speed.

One of the barriers is that psychology and human behavior and conscious, as well as subconscious thought, are things everyone has their own experiences and opinions about. Thus processing scientific experiences that clash or contradict an individual’s anecdotal observations is challenging. Because, as with any science, nothing can be entirely deterministically predicted. Even physics, which we understand rather well, still has a margin of error and wide possibility for failure on predictions. Reality is simply too complex and has way too many variables for any single event to be predicted with absolute certainty. So, you will find experiences that seem to contradict scientific knowledge from psychology. But the truth is there are actually very few formal scientific laws in psychology.

Just to address your example, there is no prisoner’s dilemma rule. It is not even from psychology. It is a game theory thought experiment. As such, it doesn’t actually predict at all what people are going to do if placed on such circumstance, it’s just an exercise to reason about what would a rational person do on different circumstances. By definition, on a formal prisoner’s dilemma, the prisoners are defined to be guilty of some crime. So, I really doubt you were put in a prisoner’s dilemma by the cops.

Just to reiterate. No, psychology is not littered with false rules and expectations. The public’s perception about psychology is, indeed, littered with misrepresentations that claim that psychology has rules and expectations. Trust me, we don’t have none of those you claim that are rules.

Finally, as for diagnosis. There is no per country definitions of mental illness. There are two comprehensive bodies of diagnosis. One is the ICD (International Classification of Diseases) managed by the WHO (World Health Organization) that standardizes and defines criteria for all medical diagnosis internationally. Including neurological, and psychiatric illnesses. Then there’s the DSM (Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders) managed by the APA (American Psychiatric Association) that standardizes diagnosis criteria of only mental disorders that was, until recently, a US only academic endeavor. There is overlap, which may cause this confusion that you seem to have. But they have radically different purposes and uses. Mainly, the DSM does a greater effort to contain psychiatric specific information regarding mental disorders that are not and probably will never be part of the ICD. While the ICD is far more international, comprehensive and integrated standard.

But that said, diagnosis is a very personal thing, think back about the confusion the public had about COVID during the pandemic when we knew so little. Even something as common as the influenza, every person manifest and experiences wildly different levels of severity and combinations of symptoms. For a myriad of variables, factors and reasons, some people die of the flu, some people have a mild nose discomfort for a while and are never aware that they were infected. This is the challenge that doctors, psychologists and psychiatrists face every day. As a teacher of mine liked to say, “the difference between your anecdotal experience and science, is that your anecdotal experience gives you one data point, a scientists ideally works with millions of data points”. You had your one anecdote, a doctor (or any other science based health worker) sees the experience of thousands of patients, and would have read about millions of other’s experiences just by the time they finish their basic education.

It’s not all the French, mostly just Parisians.

The horrible implication by your previous comment’s logic and this link is that Europe should drop all languages except Russian. Or, if only EU countries apply, everyone should speak German, as it’s obviously the predominant language. Also, this link absolutely destroys your idea that “they aren’t unique cultures”, there are at least 120+ distinct cultures in Europe, just by languages alone. This is like looking at Japan and thinking that they must be Americans because they eat KFC on Christmas.

Where’s the “Apple is the only tech giant that respects your privacy” crowd? Just because your data isn’t being publicly auctioned doesn’t mean they aren’t harvesting it and infringing on your privacy.

You jest, but there are literal serial murderers who weren’t caught because they were friends with the police. There was one that was a manager of a fried chicken place and gifted free chicken to cops so much, that they were intimate friends and even had them over for social visits to the place where they buried the bodies and the cops kept him informed about insights about the investigation of his own crimes. They never suspected a damn thing.
