Or maybe they want monthly/annual/whatever subscribers, not lifetime, and so they’re making the lifetime pass prohibitively expensive. I have a lifetime pass I purchased a few years ago but after running Jellyfin alongside Plex for a few months, I don’t think I could recommend Plex to anyone who simply wants to host their own media.
SearXNG. I will never understand why it doesn’t get used more. It is so easy to set up.
It’ll either hurt Samsung or employees will get their fair share. I’m fine with either outcome. But also, fuck AI.
Good! Fight for your rights! Fuck AI!
Purchasing is an opt in too. I use both but paid for a Plex lifetime pass almost 10 years ago. It was easier to set up remote access. Setting up a server was new to me at the time so anything I could find that made it easier was worth it. I also bought an unRAID lifetime pass for the same reason (among other reasons).
I’m not sure. I’ve always wanted something like Plex but for games.
What about Sunshine and Moonlight? This is something I’ve been mildly interested in for a while but never took a deep dive.
I didn’t see Orban mentioned in the article. What is his role in it all?
Must be what I’m thinking of.
For some reason, I thought this was already possible and it was something I was jealous of as an iPhone user.
I did. My router runs a version of OpenWRT and while I can blacklist certain domains, I can’t add lists of domains. They have to be added one by one. The pi-hole solution is much easier. I can add an entire list for social media. I can add a list that forces search engines to use safe search.
Thanks for this! I’m still relatively new to Pi-Hole. I’ll give it a look.
Are you telling me I can’t fire my kids if they find a way around? Seriously though, my kids are still relatively young so the pihole solution should work for a bit. Neither will figure out how to change DNS settings for a while.
Not surprised. War bro is sucking up to the AI bros.
As a parent, I wish someone would develop a cross platform, open source, parental control tool that preserves privacy while allowing for strong controls that are simple to use. The best I could come up with is a separate instance of Pihole that any device my kids use is linked to. It would be nice if there was a software option or something implemented in hardware that allowed parents to register the device with the user’s age (no identifying info). Laws could then be passed forcing certain websites and apps to reject any users under a certain age. The restrictions could automatically lift when the user reaches a predetermined age. I’m not an expert so there are probably aspects of this I haven’t thought through but it seems better than what has been implemented so far.
Of course you do hey do but millions of us keep eating the shit they put in front of us, me included.
Good! The fact that it isn’t being banned in more places is surprising to me. No government should allow their employees or contractors to use it. Any company who deals with sensitive info should ban it. It should never be allowed in schools.
Why can’t we just have better parental controls? I’m a parent and I do want to protect my kids but I will not upload a photo or anything else.
I have it set up on my own home server. Before that, I had it set up on individual PCs. It’s super easy. I guess you mean public instances. I’ve never used one because it is so easy to set up for yourself.
