And even when it's allowed in, it doesn't mean allowing people to just do whatever. There's plenty of places around the world where you can have a drink outdoors, but there's still laws against loitering, being a nuisance, picking fights, etc.

There's a whole wide world between "nobody can do drugs ever" and "we must tolerate fucked up people fucking up everything everywhere."

Those poor, lonely Alaskans.

This one seemed more Owen Hart

Once this law passes, I think you're in the clear as long as you get the abortion on your own property and claim self defense.

Being able to download from my Plex library made this an easy pick for me.

This is still a hardware limitation, just at scale.

Common Vulnerabilities and Exposures, it's a system for cataloging security issues. For instance, the vulnerability in Plex that caused the leak in the link above was CVE-2020-5741.

When I called the version of Plex out-of-date, it's because it had an unpatched security vulnerability. Because you called Soulseek out of date, I'm asking you which vulnerability makes you say that.

using a client that could see and vote in the poll in the 8 minutes that they had it open

The irony being that the ones upset by the API changes wouldn't be using the first party client, so if anything this would have filtered out the people in favor of closing down. I say "would have" because that would require this having actually being what happened. All of those polls I saw were open for days, and the people whining about the closures in the comments just didn't notice because they didn't actually use the site much or were just oblivious as shit.

I use Tidal instead of Spotify. It's not perfect, but it integrates with Plex, which I use to host local files as well.

I use Plex's app Plexamp for daily driver listening, but also will sometimes flip over to Tidal, which has really good stations including a daily one for discovering new artists. I use this when I feel like something new.

My local files are a mix of ripped CDs from when owning those was a thing, Bandcamp purchases (which are still my default way to obtain music if it's possible), and Tidal files pulled via Tidal-DL (when there's not a quick/easy way to purchase the music permanently).

Over time, I've moved from streaming full time from Tidal with local files to fill the gap of more obscure stuff to streaming full-time from my own collection while occasionally using Tidal directly just for discovery.

I setup Radarr/Sonarr/Overseer and shared my Plex server with some friends. They do the heavy lifting, and know when something's probably good when several of them are watching the same thing.

I'd be content extending that to include all social media "influencers," not that anybody cares what I think.
