And better hardware means there is no longer a requirement to optimise.

What was "if we don't make this code more efficient, it won't run on modern computers", turned into "we don't need to make this code efficient because modern computers will be able to run it"

Was that a ccna certification? I've heard they are quite strict on home exam conditions

They are providing extra service. Using Plex on mobile is now free for everyone, which is a huge step forward. It's not a bad trade off for server owners to require Plex pass for remote viewing (which is only necessary if you're not using a VPN like tailscale for free remote viewing).

I don't get why people are freaking out over a one off fee to unlock something that has running costs for Plex, which itself isn't necessary if you just opt for a free VPN client like tailscale.

OP couldn't comprehend an email, and when everyone tried to reassure them that nothing for them has changed they doubled down. The closest thing to justification I can figure is "all my clients are borderline illiterate as well and it upset them".

How in the world could you be upset that a product you already paid for is not providing that specific feature for free anymore. They've even made the phone software free!

How many people with a folder full of media also know how to safety expose a home server to the internet? It would be less than 1%.

Meanwhile, you don't need network engineer levels of knowledge to run Plex for remote access. You download the software, choose the folder, and send your friends a share link.

Fishburne was very diplomatic when asked for his opinion on the finished Matrix 4: "it was better than I expected, but not as good as I had hoped".

Hugo weaving, the actor for Smith, didn't appear in the film due to alleged scheduling conflicts, but I suspect he took a look at the script and noped out of it.

It's a shame, it could've been good.

No, it is imperative that they keep retreading the existing formula and include lots of call backs that fans will remember /s

After looking at the list, I get the feeling that most stories if historical intrigue are PT Barnum style hoaxes. Life is much more boring than we were led to believe.

So, it doesn't affect existing models, just the new ranges of NAS that will be released soon. And if you own an old one you can use it to format non supported drives and migrate to the newer models.

Pretty shit, but at least it's not going to majorly affect existing set ups.

I wonder if Synology will realise how bad of a move this is and one day roll it back. This will kill their consumer level market share, do they have enough of an enterprise market for this to make up the difference?

Two different shows

Which version of the series is better to watch? The American version or the Chinese version?

Oh, I see.

I just saw the subscription costs and the free tier as limited to 10 recipes. I didn't realise the self hosted version was fully functional

I suppose, but what's the worth of self hosting when the functionality is locked behind a subscription fee. If the company goes down you still lose the software.

Paprika recipe manager seems like an equivalent, and it's not subscription based. Just a one time purchase per OS

I've got that. Very useful for looking unaffected by pressure changes, which is to say, not that useful.

I'd convert to induction straight away if it were easy and cheap, but you need to have an electrician run a separate mains voltage cable to the cooktop. Having single brick walls inside basically means you wait until you're ready to remodel the whole kitchen.

Inside all of us there are two hippos...

There's a great episode of Derren Brown with this scam, but related to horse race betting

Why isn't it an exit? There could be a ladder or a tunnel or a portal.

Isn't it amazing how birds reverse engineered airplanes?
