I'd post more, but then we'd be in 2024 territory and that's starting to go too far into the past. FYI Slashdot has posted over 75 Plex related stories. Maybe read this site more often?

Cool server app, but doesn't have a TV client, so the end result is just as broken for the people this Roku change affects. More so actually since most people's TVs are in the same network as their Roku server and thus aren't impacted.

I wanted to like Jellyfin, but there are downsides.

Looks good, but I can't find the app in my TV's store so it's a complete non-starter. There's far more to Plex than just storing and serving media into a web browser. This story is about Plex enforcing something on TV apps. Promoting a service that doesn't also have a TV app is non-solution.

Like even more expensive power bills? Is that good?

Give it up. No nuclear plant will be built within the next 20 years in the UK as a result of this decision. Even the ones that are underway are horrendously resource constrained and literally none will meet time and budget.

In 25 years when the first reactor comes online. It takes a great deal of effort to plan so far ahead to miss a boat. This is why America is better. The Second Amendment allows people to shoot themselves in the foot without waiting 2 decades.

No. At an order of magnitude you're running into serious health risks. 1000ppm actively affects you. There are plenty of studies to back this up. https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/a... there, note the decline in cognitive performance at 945ppm. Here's another one looking at performance at 1000-1500ppm https://www.sciencedirect.com/... In fact a CDC study during COVID found a weak link between performance and CO2 in as little as 650ppm https://stacks.cdc.gov/view/cd... So no, even the "we're not sure vaccines don't cause autism" idiots disagree that the 1000ppm number is off by an order of magnitude.

Here's a study saying 1000ppm CO2 levels impact your sleep: https://www.sciencedirect.com/...
The UK HSE actively recommend taking action if you exceed 1500ppm CO2 https://www.hse.gov.uk/ventila...
OSHA regulations say your 8 hour concentration in the workplace shall be below 5000ppm, and they generally aren't well known for good workplace health standards (the USA lags the EU, UK in this regard). By the way CCOHS recommends the STEL is only one order of magnitude higher recognising that even 15min at that exposure is extremely hazardous to your health and mandating that employers provide supplied air respiratory protection if you're in that order of magnitude. The Dutch RIVM mandate CO2 levels below 1200ppm in the workplace.

The idea that 10000ppm+ CO2 is required for any effect on people dates back to the 80s. Maybe update your knowledge to this side of the millennium bug.

Sometimes I say things quite profound XD

You say that as if BRICS hasn't dramatically reduced the dollar's use as a hub currency. Since the formation (and increasing strength and membership thanks to the USA's fuckups) of BRICS the remenbi has surged as a currency of choice for international trade. Argentina at one point was trading with China in predominantly renminbi instead of USD. Chille switched from USD to EUR when dealing with EU trade. India is buying Russian crude in renminbi with a few rubles tossed in for good measure. 10% of Chinese trade was settled in renminbi during Biden (dropping to this from a slightly higher amount from the previous Trump presidency), but that is not pushing 40%. Trump isn't exclusively to blame here. Since the sanctions on Russia under Biden the renminbi has gone from being 2% of international trade to 5% (and 2025 figures aren't out yet, but all indications point to it jumping several percent higher still this year).

China is also financing much of the 3rd world debt right now, again trading directly in renminbi. This would have been unheard of 10 years ago. The BRICS are very much having a significant impact on the dollar as a hub currency. You don't need to "remember" anything, you just need to look at the reality around you.

You should paste that into Notepad. It has a spell checker now too. You're welcome.

No it was just a feature in the ventilation I selected. But there are many air quality meters on the market including zigbee devices which measure VOC and formaldehyde, and use those as a proxy for CO2. Heck even the IKEA VINDSTYRKA measures tVOC. They are really common these days.

Normally SSDs do data cleanup utilities when idle so simply having it powered on would do the job. But if you want to do this as periodic maintenance then use the time to do something useful, run an extended SMART diagnostics. It's guaranteed to touch the entire drive and spit out a nice report at the end of it.

Seriously? Why not run extended SMART tests? It cycles through all the active areas *AND* gets and stores valuable diagnostic information and spits out a lovely report at the end of it.

Your comment sounds like the kind of person who threw away the manual to their car and simply changes oil every 6 months hoping for the best.

Yes and no. The concept of urban sprawl means eventually cities tend to grow into areas such as this due to no voluntary choice of anyone. In many cities (especially mega cities) there is no simple availability of housing that makes the choice completely optional. If it were no one would move their in the first place. In some cases the choice is made for you. I'm reminded of one municipality in Germany building social housing units within the blast radius of ammonia tanks on one of our facilities. The people who are queuing in line for a place to live aren't going to turn down a roof over their heads just because the government fucked up royally during the planning.

There's a term called environmental poverty and it is highly correlated with actual poverty. No one likes living in places like this. No one does so voluntarily. Claiming someone can move out if they aren't happy is an astounding display of privilege fuelled ignorance.

Boundaries aren't arbitrary. The population is defined as the "City Proper". The official boundary of Tokyo ends where the next municipality (prefecture) starts, and has for eons been the boundary of the 23 wards of the old city, and that has a population of 14million. I'm not sure if you've ever seen any government ever, but they don't take kindly to the neighbouring one suddenly reclassifying an area as theirs so these are clearly defined (people know who sends them a bill for taxes).

Maybe you're confusing the words "greater area" which is a non-official designation that usually includes connected surrounding municipalities and in some cases conurbations from a whole extra city. The only time "Tokyo" has ever had a population above 14million is when talking about "The Greater Tokyo Area" which in Japan is the region of Kant and includes 6 other prefectures, Chiba, Gunma, Ibaraki, Kanagawa, Saitama, and Tochigi which all have their own governments and their own official populations.

No, these boundaries are not arbitrarily redrawn. Redrawing city boundaries takes a lot of effort from official acts of government, yes even in the 3rd world. - Again people tend to know when someone different comes asking for money claiming "you are mine now". It is public and doesn't happen very often.

Nurburgring records are separated into production and non/production vehicles. The car in question is currently ranked 3rd in the *OFFICIAL* lap records. And the only reason it's listed in a non-street legal is that this model was a prototype and hasn't been released for production *yet*. Unlike the other cars that beat it, the SU7 actually looks like car that you see on the road... because it will be and it's built in the body of one that already is.
