If you’re on mobile, the app Streamyfin for Android and iOS is fantastic. Handles downloads, transcoding, great UI, and it even integrates with additional third-party tools that enhance it further, like Jellyseer.

You’ll want to delete it from the CLI, then. Try the unlink command

My Lemmy instance, sdf.org, is a computer club founded in the 1980s

As a lefty, no I wouldn’t. If our government is a dictatorship, then this would hardly be an example of seizing the means of production, just a change of hands from one unelected dictator to another.

Still, funny mental image.

Unfortunately they’ve become immune to irony

I quite agree, but it doesn’t reduce the irony even an iota.

For some background, I grew up in a rural farming community filled to the brim with highly religious conservatives who all claimed to be oppressed

Dude is so thick that he used an example of a time when he was a minority within his department and discriminated against as a way to argue that businesses should be allowed to discriminate against minorities.

Like bro. Do you not understand that this scenario is insanely more common for racial and ethnic minorities to encounter in our society at large and that’s why we have DEI programs to begin with?

That was the stuff you needed to do to do things like: play video games on your computer, get online and chat with people, hell even use your PC to write an essay and print it out (or even setup your printer to begin with). You didn’t necessarily have to go as far as they described to do that stuff, but you had to do some of it.

Nowadays there’s no equivalent. You don’t have to at least kinda understand the filesystem to play minecraft on your iPad.

It’s also real scary to think since I’d assume most of us Gen Z-ers aren’t properly able to object to privacy eroding tech bills because we’re too tech illiterate to understand the impacts.

Millennial here, putting my tinfoil hat on for a minute:

This is exactly what the big tech corpos wanted all along. They’ve been curving the arc of history towards people at large being digitally dependent but incapable of self-service. They want addicts, not citizens. Serfs, not an educated populace.

In the 70s, 80s, 90s, and into the early 00s there was this “hacker culture” which was centered on the idea that as long as we keep our wits about us we could use computers as a great equalizer. The common person was empowered. Any and all software would be distributed for free so anyone who couldn’t afford it could get it. Bill Gates was painted as a villain because he was overtly capitalistic. The corpos were kept in check by a diverse, rapidly evolving market and a ton of savvy users who knew what they wanted.

Giant corporations pretty much caught on that they needed there to be fewer tech savvy people who could get one over on them. When politicians needed to ask experts what to include in school curriculums, guess who had lobbyists ready to go? Microsoft and Apple. Eventually Google too.

And now that there are fewer tech savvy people? Everything got shittier. Shinier, faster, dumber, more locked down and shittier. And the enshittification is just going to accelerate until people straight up reject it, then it’ll pause for 6 months to a year and start up again.
