Your son is smart.
Album@lemmy.cato Selfhosted@lemmy.world•That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharingEnglish20·11 days agoThis email is talking to you as a user of other libraries not yours, not as a server owner.
“Alternatively, server owners can purchase a Plex Pass, which will grant you continued remote streaming of libraries that you have been given access to.”
As communicated previously, Plex pass users also get the benefit of the “Remote watch pass.”
Album@lemmy.cato World News@lemmy.world•US Visa Applications From Japan Now Require Disclosing 5 Years of Social Media HistoryEnglish18·17 days agoThey’re not, and it’s not new (it even says this in the article). They’re the last to report it, its news bait because it’s a hot topic. Now everyones clicked and they got their ad dollars.

Album@lemmy.cato Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•Weekly Episode Releases Are an Outdated, Frustrating Way to Watch TVEnglish13·20 days agoI feel like you didn’t watch much classic TV because you’ve really misrepresented how it actually was. Not to say that releasing a whole season at a time isn’t objectively better… It definitely is.
Album@lemmy.cato Technology@lemmy.world•Airbnb will now show users the total cost of their stay right awayEnglish18·21 days agoYep instead of lowering rent because your unit is unaffordable you just buy up and rent them all out creating housing scarcity and prices will increase right up until the point ppl can’t afford to vacation anymore… Which is pretty much now anyway. Queue up all the BS stories. “Millennials/zoomers don’t ‘want’ to vacation anymore”
The Snake is going to eat it’s tail.
Album@lemmy.cato Enough Musk Spam@lemmy.world•The world's richest man wants to shorten your lifespan and make sure you are never able to retire.8·25 days agoNo he’s right. They want you living longer so you can work longer and consume longer.
Number only goes bigger if you have more workers and consumers. Once either of those things stops being true you can’t have “infinite growth”.
There’s no way they want you living a shorter life. Not to mention all the money in old people care. It’s a massive industry.
Album@lemmy.cato Android@lemmy.world•Android phones will soon reboot if they’re locked for a few daysEnglish29·27 days agoYet another excuse to keep checking our phones.
What? You think Google cares to wait 3 days to make you check your phone? No if that was their objective you’d be checking earlier.
The point here is to keep encryption keys out of memory on a device you haven’t used so that someone with physical access to your phone can’t pull the keys.
Album@lemmy.cato Dull Men's Club@lemmy.world•Ran an ethernet cord in my house the proper way10·1 month agoCan you help me to learn? I need to do this for my place. I want to go straight up from my basement which has an unfinished/exposed area I can probably head upwards with to an attic I can access fully, and then preferably down into my office which is directly above the basement starting area.
Any tips or guides?
Different areas have different lightning bugs too. The ones in southern ontario are not the same as the ones in the midwest US.

It happens. I see four eyes or maker checker processes fail all the time.
Album@lemmy.cato conservative@lemmy.world•Conservatives and selfishness, like 2 peas in a pod27·3 months ago“If we don’t cater to the billionaires they will leave and take their money”
Oh no… Please… Don’t go. Noooooo…
It’s relevant in that it’s entirely misleading. If profits are low they aren’t actually able to just “coast along” making less revenue.
Crowdstrike posted a GAAP Net Loss of 20 million for 2025. So a 30-50M cost savings is the difference in continuing on at all or not. There’s more to it than that, obviously.
Your point is (probably) valid once you fix your words which is what I assume you mean by saying it’s not relevant. But, instead of telling people their rebuttal is irrelevant you should try to adjust your own words to convey your message more accurately.
The quarterly profit motive where CEOs are incentivized through bonus structures to focus on short term profit goals leads to situations where the companies product or service is substandard and they make bad long term decisions that affect the lives of many including their own employees when they over hire and then can no longer afford to pay them.
