The reason I believe sequels are doing good is:

1. movie theaters have been perverted into massive and expensive hype fests
2. in strong opposition, past movie theaters were not expensive to go to and got you entertained in a social setting
3. due to the rise of large chains, small and cheaper theaters have died out.
4. assumption: the price to rent a movie for your theater will probably be horrendous by now
5. sequels have kind of a known quality which lowers the hurdle
6. that means new movies could be watched in smaller theaters and would have to be sustainable for those

Hi there! I see you‘re spitting thruth again.

I have since gone with the programme for a couple months and developed some foss software, helped make foss software and tested some foss software.

The general impression I got from it was: most of it is used without any reciprocity of any kind. The bigger projects get some donations and some also get code.

But stomping new projects out of the ground is pretty much impossible that way because you will have to invest 100s of hours to test and program. Nothing you can do in a reasonable timeframe while having a day job and a life.

So yes, I think especially for projects south of a certain size, companies should pay. Dual licensing was mentioned once. Something like agpl + commercial license if someone wants to use it closed source. I dont think it covers general profit seeking intent though.

Have a good one.

The right cant meme

Thanks for mentioning this. I recently switched to kodi for my tv setup and it works well with plex. I wonder if jellyfin would work with it. I might try it.

Plex is pretty awesome, ngl. I always wanted to try jellyfin since paywall and all but since most people wont donate to open source to save their own lives, I really cant blame them.

Walled garden or die

Thats how i read azure

I wish they got sanctioned into oblivion.

Btw are you people seeing autocorrect decline on iphones before the launch of AI iphones? Pretty sure thats also illegal.

Apple is getting their butt handed to them in china. Very nice.

You‘d be invited as catering.

Sounds good to me. :)

You‘re doing important work against misinformation. Thank you.

Oh man… that article is very long but the first 10 or 20 paragraphs make me nauseous.

It can block words, people, communities and instances. Not sure about domains but if you try and use the word filter for the news domain it should work. Not sure though.

Voyager does exactly that if I‘m not totally understanding you wrong.

It has a plex addon. I watch plex on it every day, same as twitch and youtube.

Yeah no. 20 bucks for a pi zero and libreelec. No ads, you can play retro games on it and did I mention, NO ADS!

„What is the USA?“

Oh wow! Thats gnarly. On that note, have you looked at rustdesk? Tried it this week and it runs great. Its also open source.

The „maya“ convo strongly reminded me of green hell.

Otherwise it looks cool. The synced wolves need some work I guess. I wishlisted it. Good luck!

Btw. What engine?
