Most can detect traffic. Content itself, I do t know. Certainly some can.

Probably will remove you. Ban you. And pass on any data they may have to authorities.

It’s the main reason I don’t do it. Even if it’s extremely unlikely.

That’s what my homelab is for. But even then, it has its own problems.

Luckily, I have children to do this for me haha

Plex is preinstalled on most smart tvs’s. And in ones with very limited app stores.

Also easy for others to make their own plex account, and you just give access to that user through the UI.

jellyfin requires more on the client side. Beyond what my mum can do on her own.

Plex for sharing with others. Jellyfin for personal use only.

Here’s our ex prime minister, smuggling a budgie.

I feel like I am the same. I love worry about my hearing in ten years time.

Growing up, my bedroom faced a main road (even though it was a decent way aways), always want the bedroom window open. Doesn’t bother me in the slightest.

I am a wild over thinker. Problem I have with audio books and podcasts, is i miss too much of them by falling asleep. Haha. Even with the sleep time on like only 30min.

 

If during sexual intercourse, instead of moaning, people could only express themselves using famous tv and movie quotes, which quote do you think would become the most common line used?

 

Imagine if our pets could suddenly speak human languages. What’s the most embarrassing thing they could reveal about you?

 

Think back to a pivotal moment in your life where you had to choose one path over another. If in an alternate universe you took the other path, how do you imagine your life might be different now?

 

If you could experience the world from the perspective of any other living creature for one day, what creature would you choose and why? What insights do you think this new perspective might give you?

 

Hello, everyone.

I'm looking to kickstart my community, realcompetitions, with a fun, recurring challenge. I'm eager to hear your ideas on what it should entail. The best idea will be rewarded with a humble but exciting 0.02 ETH.(excl fees)

Here’s what I’d like the concept to include:

- Recurring Nature: The challenge should be designed to run either weekly or monthly. If the prize isn't won during one round, it will roll over and add to the jackpot for the next.

- Fair Play: The concept should inherently discourage any form of rigging, ensuring a fair and engaging experience for all players.

- Unique and Engaging: The idea should be original, captivating, and should drive players to return and play again.

I can't wait to see the innovative concepts you'll come up with! And how big we can grow the community/challenges.

Additionally, I could use some assistance with moderating the community if it grows. If you're interested, please let me know.

Just so everyone is aware, all prizes come directly from my own pocket. While they may not be huge, my aim is simply to encourage and boost community engagement.

Looking forward to hearing your ideas. Peace and love! ✌️💛

 

I'd like to discuss an intriguing, somewhat fringe idea – the Consciousness Field Theory. This hypothesis postulates that our minds are interlinked, forming part of a vast, interconnected 'field' of consciousness that transcends physical boundaries and linear time.

What brings me to discuss this are the numerous accounts of experiences, often dismissed as paranormal, which defy our conventional understanding of consciousness. One such phenomenon that resonates with this theory is 'crisis apparitions.' This term refers to situations where individuals sense, see, or hear a loved one at the exact moment of the loved one's distress or death, regardless of physical distance.

A classic example comes from the sinking of the Titanic in 1912. There were several documented instances of family members and friends, thousands of miles away, experiencing visions or sensations connected with the victims at the time of the disaster.

One such case is of a woman named Mrs. Logan Marshall. She reported waking from sleep feeling the sensation of icy water around her ankles and hearing a voice saying, "I am alright; it is only my feet that are wet." She later learned that her brother-in-law, a Titanic passenger, had perished when the ship sunk.

Such experiences are common enough to suggest they're not simply coincidences or the result of overactive imaginations. Could this be indicative of the Consciousness Field Theory at work?

From a scientific standpoint, these phenomena represent a challenging frontier. While our understanding of consciousness is still evolving, there are researchers venturing into this territory. The field of Noetic Sciences, for instance, has conducted experiments on the idea of extended consciousness.

A key figure in this research, Dr. Dean Radin, has conducted several studies on phenomena such as telepathy and precognition, often yielding statistically significant results. While these studies remain controversial and aren't universally accepted, they do add to the growing body of evidence suggesting that consciousness might extend beyond the individual.

I invite you to share your thoughts, experiences, and knowledge on this profound topic. As we amalgamate our collective experiences and emerging research, we may inch closer to understanding the potential interconnectedness of our consciousness.

 

So I have some space on my server rack, but not a lot of money lying around.

What I’m trying to achieve is a nas setup for my security camera system. It has 30 cameras, and 4 drives fill up in 3 months. 3X3TB drives.

Looking on eBay for a second hand rack mounted NaS is pretty expensive. Could I build one? From a jbod or something? I’ve got a nice big space in my rack doing nothing.

(I know I could buy bigger drives, but I kinda like the idea of experimenting with something g different) ✌️💛

 

Venture into the remote reaches of South Australia, to a place etched with a dark and controversial history: Maralinga. This area, which may appear tranquil and desolate, bears the scars of a time when nuclear power and political alliances disrupted lives and tainted lands.

From 1956 to 1963, Maralinga was at the epicentre of seven nuclear tests executed by the British government, with the explicit approval of the Australian administration at that time. 'Operation Totem,' as it was labelled, marked a drastic turn for Maralinga, as the land was transformed from an area of indigenous cultural significance into the ground zero of nuclear experiments.

However, the full-scale detonations were merely one facet of the nuclear activity at Maralinga. Alongside these tests, a series of 'minor trials' took place to investigate the effects of fire on plutonium weapons. These tests, less publicized but equally harmful, further contributed to the spread of radioactive particles, intensifying the contamination of the area.

These nuclear operations were conducted under a shroud of secrecy. The full scope of these trials was kept hidden from public scrutiny. More distressingly, the Maralinga Tjarutja, the Indigenous custodians of this land, were never informed about the horrifying transformation of their ancestral home.

With the deadly radioactive threat invisible to the naked eye, the Maralinga Tjarutja people returned to their ancestral lands. The exposure to radioactive contamination significantly impacted their health and livelihood, marking a grim chapter of violation of Indigenous rights in Australia's history.

It was not until 1995 that the British and Australian governments formally acknowledged the nuclear tests and the devastating impact they had on the Indigenous inhabitants and the environment. A decontamination initiative was undertaken, although doubts remain about its effectiveness and the level of transparency maintained by the governments involved.

The narrative of Maralinga serves as a stark reminder of the potential consequences when pursuit of military prowess, scientific curiosity, and political alliances are prioritized over human rights and environmental protection. It leaves us with unsettling questions about how such disregard for Indigenous rights and environmental safety was permitted and how we can ensure it never happens again.

TL;DR: Maralinga, a location in South Australia, was subjected to a series of nuclear tests by the British government in the 1950s and 60s, resulting in extensive radioactive contamination. The damaging effects on the Indigenous population and the environment shed light on a tragic period of disregard for human rights and environmental safety in Australia's history.

 

The Philadelphia Experiment is one of the most controversial conspiracy theories out there, touching on sensitive areas like human experimentation and military secrets. I’ve compiled some research to explore this further:

1. Invisibility and Teleportation:* The central claim of the Philadelphia Experiment is that in 1943, the U.S. Navy conducted a secret experiment (codename: “Project Rainbow”) on the USS Eldridge, a naval destroyer escort, in Philadelphia. The goal was reportedly to render the ship invisible or cloaked to radar detection, and potentially even achieve teleportation. The Navy has consistently denied these claims

2. Unusual Eyewitness Accounts: The story primarily spread due to alleged eyewitness accounts and anecdotal evidence. One notable individual is Carlos Allende, who claimed to have observed the experiment from a nearby ship. He described seeing the Eldridge disappear and reappear, and he also claimed that sailors were physically fused to the ship when it returned, suggesting a teleportation experiment gone wrong.

3. Alleged Government Cover-Up: Proponents of the theory argue that the lack of official documentation and the quick dismissal by the government points to a cover-up. They argue that given the secretive nature of military operations during World War II, it is plausible that the experiment could have been conducted without public knowledge.

4. Connections to Quantum Physics: Some theorists link the Philadelphia Experiment to theories of quantum teleportation and unified field theory, suggesting that the Navy might have been exploring advanced physics concepts.

TL;DR: The Philadelphia Experiment conspiracy theory suggests a clandestine military experiment involving invisibility and teleportation.

 

More Reddit circlejerky. 🥩

In light of the admins comments I. The attached photo, I have made a subreddit, r/subsquatting, to bring attention to those who bypass Reddit's Rule 4: "Camping or sitting on a community is not encouraged." I invite you to join me in posting images of users sitting, squatting, or camping on subreddits.

Did you spot someone sharing a picture of themselves lounging on a chair in r/cozyplaces? Or setting up a camp in r/natureisfuckinglit? Seize these moments and share them here! We welcome all photographic evidence of Rule 4 transgressions.

(For those who find the image hard to read as I did: Thanks for bringing this up; it's an important conversation. Mods have a right to take a break from moderating, or decide that you don't want to be a mod anymore. But active communities are relied upon by thousands or even millions of users, and we have a duty to keep these spaces active. Subreddits belong to the community of users who come to them for support and conversation. Moderators are stewards of these spaces and in a position of trust. Redditors rely on these spaces for information, support, entertainment, and connection. We regularly enforce our subreddit and moderator-level rules. As you point out, this means that we have policies and processes in place that address inactive moderation (Rule 4), mods vandalizing communities (Rule 2), and subreddit squatters (also Rule 4). When rules like these are broken, we remove the mods in violation of the Moderator Code of Conduct!, and add new, active mods to the subreddits. We also step in to rearrange mod teams, so active mods are empowered to make decisions for their community. The Moderator Code of Conduct was launched in September 2022, and you'll notice via post and comment history that this account has been used extensively to source new mod teams. Leaving a community you deeply care for and have nurtured for years is a hard choice, but it is a choice some may need to make if they are no longer interested in moderating that community. If a moderator team unanimously decides to stop moderating, we will invite new, active moderators to keep these spaces open and accessible to users. If there is no consensus, but at least one mod who wants to keep the community going, we will respect their decisions and remove those who no longer want to moderate from the mod team.)

Has there been any indication that reddit may pay creators and moderators, like youtube and meta and other platforms do? or are they just expecting to pocket all the cash?

 

With the new Reddit policies, when a sub protests and goes private, could re-edit just step in, oust a moderator and switch it back to public?
