The fact that something this extreme is actually required to enact political change is absolutely ridiculous, but much respect to him for what he’s doing.

On a practical note, I was thinking the same thing as you. I don’t think I could stand for 17 hours straight. I absolutely could not go 17 hours without a bathroom break.

Isn’t this kind of a roundabout way of saying “I’m a libertarian that isn’t into wearing tinfoil hats?”

Out of all the things this administration has done, this one almost seems somewhat logical.

I can understand not having a RealID or passport, since both are mainly for travel. Not everyone has a need or desire to travel.

Section D says a government-issued ID and proof of citizenship is okay. Doesn’t everyone at least have a state ID (probably a drivers license) and a birth certificate?

As an veteran, I’d just like to offer an emphatic “fuck you” to anyone who thinks this is a good idea. If you served your country with honor, you deserve the same recognition as any other member of the Armed Forces that served alongside you. I don’t care about your race, ethnicity, orientation, creed, religion, or anything else. We’re all part of the same team.

Even if everyone in the chat had a need-to-know, you do not use insecure 3rd-party software for classified communications. Secure networks already exist for this.

This is also true of Jellyfin, though. I have apps on my Windows PC, my Android phone, multiple Nvidia Shield boxes on my TVs, plus the web interface if I need it.

I switched over from Plex several years ago, and while it takes a bit more time to configure, compatibility for clients seems just as good for Jellyfin as it is for Plex.

Most importantly, Jellyfin is strictly client/server, no “cloud” bullshit and no remote account is required; I don’t want Plex phoning home with a list of the media on my file server.

C++ is just as “safe” as Rust if you use modern language features (std::unique_ptr, for instance). I would argue that anyone who says Rust provides better memory safety than C++ most likely is not familiar with modern C++ and still sees the language as “C with classes.”
