Some people have extensive libraries there. I have over 1k books, and probably half that in audiobooks. I do have them all DeDRM’d but still it would be an annoying loss

I think it really depends on the user and how you communicate with the AI. People are different, and we communicate differently. But if you’re precise and you tell it what you want, and what your expected result should be it’s pretty good at filling in the blanks.

I can pull really useful code out of Claude, but ask me to think up a prompt to feed into Gemini for video creation and they look like shit.

Having used both Gemini and Claude… I use Gemini when I need to quickly find something I don’t want to waste time searching for, or I need a recipe found and then modified to fit what I have on hand.

Everytime I used Gemini for coding has ended in failure. It constantly forgets things, forgets what version of a package you’re using so it tells you to do something that is deprecated, it was hell. I had to hold its hand the entire time and talk to it like it’s a stupid child.

Claude just works. I use Claude for so many things both chat and API. I didn’t care for AI until I tried Claude. There’s a whole whack of novels by a Russian author I like but they stopped translating the series. Claude vibe coded an app to read the Russian ebooks, translate them by chapter in a way that prevented context bleed. I can read any book in any language for about $2.50 in API tokens.

I don’t know how that happens, I regularly use Claude code and it’s constantly reminding me to push to git.

This was my issue but one day I found out about LinOffice a project that will run office in a container and the windows appear on my KDE desktop as apps. So I looked into it deeper and it says it works alongside something called WimApps (https://github.com/winapps-org/winapps) that lets you also run office but more importantly will work with Creative Cloud. It’s seamless, it’s like I’m running Photoshop on windows. Closing apps can sometimes be wonky but it runs everything I’ve thrown at it.

Most likely they’re not logged in with a paid Plex account. When I head to the web version of the Plex app it’s a shitshow until I login. Then I have all that shit disabled server side.

Nah, I bought it years ago, and have enjoyed the experience for the better part of a decade.

Don’t get me wrong, I’m not shitting on jellyfin. But Plex is just the superior experience. I’ve used jellyfin alongside Plex for a couple years and while it’s very useful for sharing content I don’t want my family to see in my Plex libraries. It just doesn’t have the polish that Plex has. There’s definitely potential, and I look forward to where it goes as the project matures. Like all companies, Plex will goto shit eventually, we all know it. The past couple of months have brought annoying changes and I expect them to continue to enshittify the service. But until that time comes I will continue to prefer Plex.

I honestly haven’t opened the android app for awhile. But I just did and the content from my server was right there on load. Near the bottom was trailers and things from Apple TV. I had to scroll pretty far down to see this and if anything it gave me an overview of what was coming up so I could add them to radarr.

I see no Plex content, I have it disabled on my account. So if it was there I’d be pretty annoyed, but it wasn’t. So whatever.

I know Lemmy is obsessed with Jellyfin, but alot of us have lifetime memberships to Plex, and will switch when hell freezes over.

I’ll just leave this here… https://massgrave.dev/

It was indeed. My apologies. I guess the article walking back the ban didn’t get as much traction as the one banning it.

Canada already banned it. Wish I’d got one sooner

I have kleinfelter syndrome, my body doesn’t produce testosterone. I have to take estrogen blockers to prevent my body from making estrogen.

So I’ll be taking TRT injections for the rest of my life. The only real downside to that is knowing prostate cancer is likely, 2 years in and it’s already elevating my PSA levels. Right now my doctor feels I’m too young to worry about it, they only check it on the off chance that my levels spike into dangerous territory.
