He uses Arch BTW

I recommend Jellyfin as well. Open source, local accounts, and no features locked behind a pass. The Jellyfin TV clients are a little more bare bones but the server software itself is pretty much equal nowadays. I have the lifetime Plex Pass but I have moved away from Plex completely now after the direction they’ve been heading in the last couple of years.

Theoretically they could take those two characters + a salt and then also store that hash. So there it is technically a way to do it although it’d be incredibly redundant, just ask for the actual password at that point.

Theoretically they could hash the the two characters with a salt and store it that way, but extremely unlikely they’d actually do that. And also fairly pointless. But still technically possible.

It is impossible for an AI to cite its sources, at least in the current way of doing things. The AI itself doesn’t even know where any particular text comes from. Large language models are essentially really complex word predictors, they look at the previous words and then predict the word that comes next.

When it’s training it’s putting weights on different words and phrases in relation to each other. If one source makes a certain weight go up by 0.0001% and then another does the same, and then a third makes it go down a bit, and so on-- how do you determine which ones affected the outcome? Multiply this over billions if not trillions of words and there’s no realistic way to track where any particular text is coming from unless it happens to quote something exactly.

And if it did happen to quote something exactly, which is basically just random chance, the AI wouldn’t even be aware it was quoting anything. When it’s running it doesn’t have access to the data it was trained on, it only has the weights on its “neurons.” All it knows are that certain words and phrases either do or don’t show up together often.

Is it just me, or is that “cinematic” postprocessing effect more intense now? It feels “shakier” than S1 and I was kind of hoping that they would only use it during sidestory episodes…

I didn’t remember it being like this either, but I rewatched season 1 before this and the effect has been there since the very first episode. At least in the blu-ray release. It’s possible it wasn’t originally there in the TV release but now that they’ve added it they’re sticking with it.

I don’t necessarily hate Manjaro, but I do think people shouldn’t use it. Besides the things people have already said, Manjaro goes against the spirit of what Arch is supposed to be. Arch has everything you want and nothing you don’t. You set everything up for yourself so you know exactly how your system works and why X package is installed. You tailor the experience for yourself rather than having someone else tailor it for you. If you wanted that you could just use a distro meant for that in the first place like Fedora.

But even if you really, really, want preconfigured Arch you could just use EndeavourOS. It uses the normal Arch repos and has basically none of the issues Manjaro has in terms of security and stability. There is not really any good reason to use Manjaro over it.

That’s quite a wait but if Studio Bind keeps up the quality it is worth waiting for.

I more meant along the lines of building an HTPC then putting Android on it, so that wouldn’t have ads. But yeah an Apple TV is definitely an easier plug-and-play solution. I am more of a DIY type of person.

Firesticks are also full of ads and tracking. It’d be more ideal to use something like a Raspberry Pi or building an Android TV box instead as a media client.

I didn’t know it was possible for me to hate a character voiced by Ayaneru but here we are. This is the best first episode of the season so far. Looking forward to episode 2.

If you are rooted the magisk module is even easier to use. When I tried compiling myself it would always crash but the module works perfectly and super easy to update.

Yeah I’m so confused at the production/directorial choices. I came here to complain about similar things but you pretty much said everything I wanted to. I would prefer low budget regular animation (like Angel Next Door) over how distracting some of the shots in this were.

This was really cute albeit a bit generic. The teasing dynamic has been done quite a lot now so it’s gonna take some extra oomph to make this one stand out. I’ll give it a couple more episodes but even as a slice of life connoisseur I wasn’t really feeling episode 1.

While I can’t offer a solution, it’s not that the rips are quiet. It’s most likely it’s multi-channel audio and your player/headphones is doing a bad job of downmixing it to stereo. It is probably easier to just make sure you are grabbing releases with 2.0 tracks from the beginning.

If you are on Android there is Finamp, which isn’t quite as nice but it is clean and free. If you’re willing to pay a couple bucks there’s also Symfonium which IMO is even better than Plexamp. It has way more customization and I love that it uses Material You.

If you are on Android there is Finamp for Jellyfin. It’s not quite as nice but it is clean and free. There is also Symfonium which is I think $3 but it is even nicer than Plexamp IMO. The great thing about Jellyfin is there are many options.
