It’s not publicly accessible, though. An account is clearly needed.

Possibly some ISP interference with the OpenVPN protocol. Apparently that can happen sometimes

Hacking, even on an insecure system, would be illegal. Any copyright troll trying to sue a single user for having a private jellyfin instance which they hacked to find out about would probably have a hard time actually making a case.

“Yeah, this one guy was distributing films to himself and a few friends. I know because I hacked him” doesn’t seem like a good case.

Doesn’t have a sync play feature like Jellyfin does

So what’s the alternative? VPNs are unreliable

Or even if you must, store the names locally

Nope. The servant begged for mercy.

So the servant fell on his knees, imploring him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.’ And out of pity for him, the master of that servant released him and forgave him the debt.

The parable also comes with a stark warning:

So also my heavenly Father will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.”

What counts as animal cruelty?

Never.

Matthew 18:21-35

Then Peter came up and said to him, “Lord, how often will my brother sin against me, and I forgive him? As many as seven times?” Jesus said to him, “I do not say to you seven times, but seventy-seven times. “Therefore the kingdom of heaven may be compared to a king who wished to settle accounts with his servants. When he began to settle, one was brought to him who owed him ten thousand talents. And since he could not pay, his master ordered him to be sold, with his wife and children and all that he had, and payment to be made. So the servant fell on his knees, imploring him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you everything.’ And out of pity for him, the master of that servant released him and forgave him the debt. But when that same servant went out, he found one of his fellow servants who owed him a hundred denarii, and seizing him, he began to choke him, saying, ‘Pay what you owe.’ So his fellow servant fell down and pleaded with him, ‘Have patience with me, and I will pay you.’ He refused and went and put him in prison until he should pay the debt. When his fellow servants saw what had taken place, they were greatly distressed, and they went and reported to their master all that had taken place. Then his master summoned him and said to him, ‘You wicked servant! I forgave you all that debt because you pleaded with me. And should not you have had mercy on your fellow servant, as I had mercy on you?’ And in anger his master delivered him to the jailers,until he should pay all his debt. So also my heavenly Father will do to every one of you, if you do not forgive your brother from your heart.”

Do you reckon this app could have been vibecoded/a product of AI? Or massive use of AI in development? I’d know not to do this as a teenager when I was beginning to tinker with making apps, nevermind an actual business.

That cost an exorbitant amount of money?

Depends on what it’s used for. Looks tacky when used by big businesses, but looks fine if used by small independent people. Like dbzer0.com just uses them for blog thumbnails. But coca cola AI adverts? Ai bots spouting stuff on Facebook? Entirely AI generated websites (although that’s moreso text)? Awful.

What a massive jump to conclusions

The problem with the statistic you cited is that it counts second, third, etc marriages as well. Second marriages are more likely to fail as it is clear people who have already had a divorce are just bad at being married. Which is proof in itself that changing partners isn’t good.

No, it is weird. As long as you don’t disown your daughter or something over her poor decisions.

Every decade before the late 2000’s smelled like indoor cigarette smoke

opposite of me I guess

Of course, the Chinese flag has to be in the article thumbnail.

Throwing somebody straight into lava in a volcano. Would be interesting to see what happens.
