Yeah, an IP range totally works. Figure out the subnet info and add that to a whitelist. It’s a pain, but it should keep the script kiddies at bay.

It saves the comment/post, and you can find them later by going to your profile.

Here it is in the mobile version of the web app, it’s the star. Click that, and then you’ll see then under your profile -> saved.

Yeah, that’s disappointing, and the maximum payload/tow capacity significantly under a ton is also a bummer. I may still need to rent a truck if I get this, but it could handle a lot of my local hauling needs.

What’s wrong with an EV pickup? Pickups are incredibly useful, and if it’s an EV, it could also be a commuter. I don’t need a truck very often, so I tend to rent when I need one, because they’re so terrible on fuel. But if it’s an EV, there’s a chance it’s reasonably efficient, so I could use it as my commuter and occasional dump/furniture store/hardware store/nursury run vehicle.

This isn’t going to attract those dudes who like to lift their trucks and piss off everyone on the road, this is too small for those egos. This is going to appeal to people who need a truck for local use, like small business owners and DIY types.

Have you tried the “star” feature? That does exactly what you’re looking for, but without useless posts.

I have my smart TV access it over my local network. If you’re using a friend’s instance, you could set up a WiFi SSID that tunnels everything over your VPN.

If that’s onerous, you can make it publicly accessible, but only for whitelisted client IPs.

I love Jellyfin and use it. I also think the security issues are very serious and it’s irresponsible to not fix them. At the very least they can make a new API and give users the option to enable or disable the insecure one until clients get updated. But they don’t.

I’ve decided to remove public access to my Jellyfin server until it’s resolved, though it’s still accessible behind my VPN.

My understanding is that the current design is merely an evolution of regular human-controlled machines, and they still need to be able to operate w/ a human inside. Once you remove the human from the equation, the design space opens up quite a bit, and you optimize for different things. Since things would likely be battery powered, maybe you’d want more, smaller devices so they don’t take as long to charge.

I don’t know, I’m not a farmer. My point, however, is that once we trust machines to operate w/o humans in control, things are likely to change a lot.

Exactly. And my understanding is that they pay something close to the retail rate, whereas they get a discounted rate from Microsoft, so they’re getting shafted multiple ways.

Gym exercise bikes tend to have really wide seats, so that’s a good option. Or you can get a wider seat for your regular bike as well.

The important thing is to get active, and ideally vary your exercises a bit.

In the US, I asked before buying, and they gave me a $50 or so discount. It was better than nothing, so I took it.

Yeah, they only gave me like $50 or so off when I told them I didn’t want the Windows license. Granted, it shipped w/ Linux, so they likely still paid for the license, but still.

It’s hard to guess the future, but I imagine once we have automated farming, things like tractors will look a lot different. Right now, farmers need versatile equipment for a variety of tasks (plow, till, plant, etc), whereas an automated farm would probably prefer dedicated machines for each. The farmer would become more of a mechanic/planner than the one directly running the equipment.

I don’t know how far out that is, but I imagine once we get reasonable self-driving cars, farming will be the next up.

Agreed. Whether everyone should be driving everywhere is a completely separate problem. In the short term, people need replacements for current ICE vehicles, and an inexpensive truck that runs on electricity is fantastic while we figure out the rest of the issues.

I’m guessing eventually farmers won’t need trucks, they’ll need bots that fulfill that need instead.

Yeah, if it’s working, put it on maintenance mode and move on to the next project.

Yeah, mine would say, “what you talkin’ 'bout Willis?”:

This feels like a good metaphor for US vs EU culture.

Well, obviously… you’re missing the flour and eggs!

Makes sense.

My point is that a little bit of deduction should lead someone to the conclusion that the dim light was an intentional feature going “wrong” or a bad bulb.

As long as it gets 50+ miles range reliably in winter, it’s perfect as a commuter/weekend project truck. I generally look for 150 miles range for this, since winter can cut effective range in half. I don’t care about charge speed since I’ll just plug it in at night.
