I’ll switch to jellyfin as soon as it works nearly as well.
But for the moment it’s missing a lot of features compared to Plex.

Christ, not exactly a model of power efficiency is it?
Also, if it’s drawing that much power, how could it possibly dissipate all the heat? It must sound like an F-16.
I expect this card will be a hard pass from me…
I don’t think anyone needs to worry about “missing it” when AI becomes conscious. Given the rate of acceleration of computer technology, we’ll have just a few years between the first general intelligence AI, something that equals in intelligence to a human and a superintelligence many times “smarter” than any human in history.
But how far away are we from that point? I couldn’t guess. 2 years? 200 years?
Woah… I’d say it’s time for a major modification… I wouldn’t be able to deal with owning something so dumb.
Well, currently it’s available on the dashboard. So no, no quite. But eventually, yeah it’s pretty easy to predict it’s heading the way you were thinking, just give it time.
Yeah, imagine a network backup system that could actually back up your 20 TB media center in a few hours rather than several days.
It’s pretty clear what he wants. He wants WW3.
He wants to consolidate manufacturing to make the US more self sufficient. The tariffs are simply a tool to designed to encourage local manufacturing.
He wants to start dominating smaller countries just like Russia and China. As well as annexing neighbors. He wants to do what Hitler couldn’t. He wants to use the most powerful military in the world.
If he wants to go to war, then he’s probably going about things the right way. Historically, being reliant on other countries for your supply chain can be a huge liability in war. For example, we were in danger of losing WW2 because of a lack of access to rubber. We need it for boots and tires, and we got it all from South East Asia, our access to rubber was completely cut off by Japan, it was a huge problem until we developed synthetic (plastic) rubber. We literally wouldn’t have been able to put boots on the ground or vehicles on the road.
If we were to end up in a conflict with China for instance, we would lose access to a lot of high tech manufacturing, we suddenly wouldn’t be able to make new computers. That could be bad.
Anyway, the signs are all here, Hitler V2 wants to mobilize soon.
I wish I could argue with this.
I never understood its usecase.
I used to use it when I was browsing the web at work. If I was reading something at the end of the day, or if it was something I didn’t want to read at work, I’d give it a pocket bookmark. Then I could pull out my phone and finish right where I left off during my train commute.
I just think banning them outright is bad for needing to contact parents, especially for kids like me who had after school activities often.
Ok, well that’s completely ridiculous.
Look, 25 years ago nobody had cell phones in school. Kids had just as many after school activities, this wasn’t a problem. It was sometimes inconvenient, but not a problem. It’s also worth remembering, many rooms in every high school have phones, you’ll be able to use one if you need to.
I get wanting to have your phone throughout the day, I do. But on the other hand… no.
but people here in Lemmy (same on Reddit years ago) completely lose their shit with that idea
I’ve practically never seen anyone over 19 who was opposed to this idea. It’s obviously the right move. Phones don’t belong in school.
If you want to get all fussy about the “danger” of being without a phone, they can be allowed to keep it in their lockers until the last bell rings. There’s literally no down side to this and a whole lot of up sides.
Yeah, I’m well aware. But how much of my time would it take to get a bunch of windows software running smoothly on Linux?
I do appreciate the offer of personal help, that’s an extremely generous offer to an internet stranger. Sincerely, thank you!
I’m a bit depressed that I finally need to upgrade my last windows 7 machine. It looks like it’s 10 for me now :-(
Oh no, I can see exactly why you’d want cloud storage in a business… But why as part of your office suite? If nothing else, it seems foolish to tie your storage solution to your office suite. It means your locking yourself into an ecosystem and reducing your options in the future.
Adding all these unrelated features is like saying “check it out! This car has a toaster oven!”. I mean, cool. And sure other cars don’t, so that’s something I guess, but why?
Why would you want multifactor authentication for your word documents? Hell, why do you need authentication? If you’re logged into the machine I think you get to use the word processor. But hey, if all this stuff really belongs in an office suite, why not throw in an aquarium screensaver, a cobal compiler and a drive formatter, that would really round the package out.
Yeah that’s fair, I’ve seen how Office business integrates with the OS and a bunch of network services, so I’m not surprised by that. Well, for those corporate environments I expect MS will continue to be the norm. But for small businesses and home use, Libra is really fantastic.
And honestly, for personal use I could do without all that email and calendar integration, good riddance.
Edit: Also storage? MFA? MDM? Why would you want that in an office suite? like maybe MDM is useful, but it doesn’t belong in the office suite. And the rest of the acronyms I didn’t even recognize… So I’m guessing they also don’t really belong.
Yeah it does. I’ll be honest, I don’t use spreadsheets much so I don’t have personal experience with it, but yeah it does support that.
I was curious, so I followed up on this. Here’s what a quick Google search turned up:
To open an XLSM file in LibreOffice Calc, you can generally open it directly. However, you might need to save it in a different format (like ODS) to ensure compatibility, especially if you’re dealing with macros. LibreOffice Basic is not directly compatible with Excel VBA macros, so you may need to rewrite the macros to use LibreOffice Basic.
In other words, you may need to save your Excel documents as open document files, but after that their macros should work just as they did. Either way, macros are supported and in fact there are a few different scripting languages you can use.
Sometimes I find myself annoyed by Lemmy users. We love to tout foss alternatives, even when they don’t work as well, or aren’t nearly as polished.
Libre office is a different story, it has everything you’ll need, it’s really complete, it does everything you want and it can read any format you throw at it and save its output in any format you need. It launches faster than Microsoft office, it’s more stable, I really have absolutely no complaints, everyone should be using it.
Hey, thanks for the reply. Yeah I ran memtest at some point, but I’ve also used the memory in a different machine and had no trouble with it.
I’ve done several bios updates hoping for some fix, but no beans.
It does feel like a hardware defect, but the unfortunate bit is that the machine ran great for over a year, then suddenly started giving me trouble at some point, so I’m probably outside of any warranty period. That’s basically the only reason I haven’t RMA’d it already.
Installing mint is a pretty good idea, I could try that. But yeah, a new AM4 mobo is probably my best bet, I can’t tell you how frustrating it is though…
Thanks for the ideas, I appreciate it!
Frequent crashing/freezing, especially at idle. Once the processor is under heavier load it’s fine, it’ll keep going smooth for hours. but at lower energy states the CPU is super unstable. It often takes me about a half hour just to get the thing up and running steady, very frustrating. Sometimes it likes to crash right as it’s changing load levels/c-State, so just as it finishes loading files for a game just as the first 3d frame is rendered. Or vice versa, it’ll crash about 15 seconds after the computer returns to mostly idle when you exit an application.
I’ve tried a bunch of things, disabling c-states, manually setting dram timings, manually increasing power to various parts, enabling/disabling just about every relevant feature I can find. And of course looking for help online. I’m actually pretty sure the problem is in the motherboard, as one of the “fixes” I tried was going from a Ryzen 3600 to a 3800X, and the problem was the same.
I’ve looked around and it’s an issue I have seen other people having, though it’s not very common. But there’s no consensus in the root of the problem. It does seem to be that it’s some interaction between the motherboard and cpu. It could plausibly be the power supply, but I think that’s pretty unlikely. The ram is fine.
The exactly.
You want something from me, fine. But nothing is free and you may not like my price, and in that case you’re simply out of luck.
