Ooh this is great to see!

Plex kind of has to advertise itself as that because it’s real product is sort of in the grey area, legally speaking.

Essentially, a Plex server allows you to stream locally stored files from your computer to any clients running the Plex app. A lot of people use this as a way to watch pirated media.

For example, I run my server (desktop) in my home office and have several drives attached to it and in one of those drives is “Pride.and.Prejudice.2005.mp4” and because I have my Plex server attached to that file, I can go to my TV and watch Pride and Prejudice (2005) on my sofa. The movie file “moves” through my hard drive into my desktop, then goes through my router and gets streamed into my TV. (A bit of a simplification but it gets the point across.)

So, no payment necessary to stream media you own through Plex. There is a paid tier but the features it enables are nothing someone wanting to watch movies on their sofa should worry about, all the essential stuff is in the free option.

No idea on Lemmy tbh because my interaction with tech community is “something broke and I don’t know how to fix it”/// I don’t lurk because I have nothing to useful contribute lol

I’d look into the HTPC (home theater PC) community. Many of your problems have already been addressed. “htpc keyboard” on Amazon pulls of plenty of options for you to consider

E: If you’ve got the money to spend, there’s no reason to do something as unsightly as external HDDs>laptop>>HDMI>monitor when Plex exists and is plug-and-play. Throw your laptop and drives in a closet or a backroom and put a Roku (or Shield) on the “TV.” Much neater and you can navigate with the remote too.

I won’t lol

Cope and seethe lmao

Definitely, but if I was trying to make a sales pitch to an average person, that’s what I’d lead with. Add-ons on FF Mobile make something like YouTube Premium completely redundant

I honestly don’t know why this guy doesn’t just hire a couple ghostwriters to finish things, proofread them himself, publish them and be done with it

Makes no sense. Why would a girl even need toilet paper in the first place?

for a week long trip i buy a whole 12 pack of those shitty (heh) hanes tighty whiteys just for that week. Then I burn three tires in my back yard just to make sure the earth knows that i dont give a f-word about my carbon footprint.

every time i ever pack for a trip i pack like im anticipating shitting my pants 2x a day.

I’d say so, or at the very least move it to the bottom third of your resume and stress your team working experience. That’s probably the most relevant acquired skill here

Disclaimer: I can only speak from the perspective of someone whose undergrad studies involved proofreading resumes. I know next to nothing about tech support

Remove the “Fast Food” part from the experience section entirely. Your experience list doesn’t need to be chronological, nor does it need to be all-inclusive. Putting that as your first bullet point under your “Experience” header is a good way to have your resume discarded immediately.

Edit for a few other things:

I’d move your “Certifications” section to be below your “Education” and to combine the “Education” and “Relevant Coursework” sections to just fall under “Education.”

• Both statements can be true without contradicting each other.

Looks to be only on the west coast. Shame. Nuovo Testamento are great live, I saw them open for Molchat Doma last year

Every day I’m hoping for more music. I’ve seen them live in the US three times now and they’ve killed it every time

Why is anyone using X in 2024?

This is hilarious. If I had some spare cash (and a lot of spare time), I’d absolutely love to do something like this. I’d love to do some modern blockbuster movies.
