It’s very mass market, not particularly well informed general news source and this is a specialist community where this is relevant to its specialist field

Thank you

Thanks, further information could be interesting. Do you know if it requests connectivity on every startup?

Because it’s not principally about privacy. I don’t want adverts or forced changes to the product I purchased made after sale.

Not sure what you mean by “seek access through open wifi”

Stuff like this

My reason for stipulating that is that lot of people saying it do so either from ignorance (they simply don’t believe/understand that you might not be able to opt out) or on the basis of outdated information, e.g. “I bought my TV ten years ago and never had to do this”. Your experience being in the recent past I guess I could try this as a sale stipulation point, thanks.

Thanks, don’t need touch and the price is a bit on the heavy side

Great! Could you link a 60" monitor?

Thanks, neither of these seem to go over 43"

I’m guessing those aren’t as big and you have to buy them by the hundred

Thanks!. Two posters suggesting I try here so I’ll try that first and maybe this forum if not because what I want to ask about is a TV so not audio!

I don’t think anyone is claiming otherwise are they? A large part of his appeal is accessibility- you don’t need any preparation or training to watch his videos- an excel file not so much

Side note for non UK Lemmings: Pickfords are still going

I’m sorry to say but it’s Windows. You never really know. Have you considered getting an old optiplex on Amazon Renewed and putting Debian and Jellyfin on that?

Update for the people downvoting:

I am a professional platform engineer. By ‘Windows. You never really know’ I mean that there are always ten thousand things running, you’re never going to have a full grasp of everything that’s happening in the way that you could with a stripped down linux environment. My own Jellyfin instance is running on

• Intel® Core™ i5-4590S CPU @ 3.00GHz
• 8GB RAM
• Integrated Graphics
• Shipped AUG 2014
• Ubuntu 22.04 with deb installation of Jellyfin

All clients connect via Wifi although server is cat5 to switch. Most of my video does not require transcoding. There are plenty of FLAC audio files in my library. I don’t see slowdowns as described here.

Your hardware is more than capable. I’m running on a ten year old dell optiplex and don’t have these issues. I suspect your issue is Windows, more specifically something else on windows, such as antivirus, updates etc. blocking disk I/O

OP you have some strange ideas. You think it’s better for workers to wait for their money? Why? If this were me and I wanted to paid at the end of the month I could just pay into a savings account daily and collect interest.

Yes daily pay is associated with casual work, like labouring. Some people struggle to turn up for work reliably. At least with this they get paid when they do. Better than zero hours contracts.

You should celebrate with some upside down cake

Err Windows xp launched in October 2001, not the 90’s. The ‘successor’ version, Vista, launched in 2007, really only for home use. Windows 7, the successor for schools, offices etc, released 2009.

It’s fine at work. Frankly it’s a problem socially: everyone wants to judge- if you earn more then they resent it, if you earn less, they sneer at you, if you earn ‘about the same’ then people want to calculate how you spend your money and criticise something about that.

The OpenBSD project maintains portable versions of many subsystems as packages for other operating systems. Because of the project’s preferred BSD license, which allows binary redistributions without the source code, many components are reused in proprietary and corporate-sponsored software projects. The firewall code in Apple’s macOS is based on OpenBSD’s PF firewall code,[6] Android’s Bionic C standard library is based on OpenBSD code,[7] LLVM uses OpenBSD’s regular expression library,[8] and Windows 10 uses OpenSSH (OpenBSD Secure Shell) with LibreSSL.[9]
