Mine started as a gamer tag. I wanted something that sounded cute and unassuming, it was fun to see scrolling text announcements like "Ninja_AssassinX was killed by Coco Puff's rail gun".

I've played a lot of post apocalyptic video games, lately those experiences are beginning to feel more relevant than I ever wanted... But across all of them, one constant has always remained true: slavers are kill on sight.

Well my users are my family and close friends, so I just do care about them... Some of them use a smart TV app to access Plex, which is pretty convenient as it doesn't even require additional devices or remote controls.

The fact is, as the family tech guy I spend a lot of my effort trying to make tech as easy to use for everyone as possible. And more than anything else, making things intuitive and simple is what eliminates the most amount of hassle for me.

I gotta be honest, when I look at the problem pragmatically, it'll be a lot easier to pay $20 a year than to switch to jellyfin and get all my users to figure out how to install clients and make it work for them.

I'm already at the point in my life where my primary concern is making things work smoothly, and if I need to throw money at something to make it work smoothly, the choice is a no brainer. (At least for some values of "money")

Yeah, that second lawyer took one hell of a gamble. I see where they were coming from, but those are extremely risky dice to roll... And now their client is in more trouble than ever... Critical failure.

And the first lawyer... I have nothing to say, what a dumbass.

The article says she's a "legal permanent us resident". It's a little weird that she's been living in the US for 37 years and never got her citizenship. I wonder what that's about.

Does anyone know what other nations fall into this "sensitive" classification?

Edit: I did some googling myself and here's the list below. (The short version is: Russia and their allies, China and their allies, and broadly the middle east. Weirdly, also Taiwan)

  • Algeria
    
  • Armenia
    
  • Azerbajan
    
  • Belarus
    
  • China (PRC)
    
  • Cuba
    
  • Georgia
    
  • Hong Kong
    
  • India
    
  • Iran
    
  • Iraq
    
  • Israel
    
  • Kazakhstan
    
  • Korea (North)
    
  • Kyrgyzstan
    
  • Libya
    
  • Macau
    
  • Moldova
    
  • Pakistan
    
  • Russia
    
  • Sudan
    
  • Syria
    
  • Taiwan
    
  • Tajikistan
    
  • Turkmenistan
    
  • Ukraine
    
  • Uzbekistan
    

I realize that's a long list, I don't know, should I put that in a or code block or spoiler tag?

I've been playing a lot of terraria with my son recently, it's been a lot of fun going back to it. Coincidentally, I just saw the trailer for Noita for the first time last night, and thought "woah, that looks cool as hell..."

I'm going to develop a new AI designed to remove watermarks from AI generated content. I'm still looking for investors if you're interested! You could get in on the ground floor!

You could use it as the logic board for a micro drone, something the size of a dime perhaps. Or other applications where weight or space are extremely limited. Another example might be a medical implant of some sort, this is small enough that it could be a part of a device that is meant to be placed inside an artery, or an eyeball, or an ear canal.

To be fair, it is really hot...
