    Does jellyfin do untranscoded video/audio?

    Haven’t used it in years but finally building up my media server again and I remember it had some funky settings for hardware encoding back then which I didn’t need because I was connecting to it via a repurposed gaming laptop that could easily handle 4k content and surround sound by itself.







  • Pakistan is the other lone stander that absolutely refuses to recognize Israel and also happens to have nukes that can reach Israel, yet they’ve done jack on that sentiment, despite the ISI having a history of outplaying Mossad.

    Iran wants nukes for the same reason everyone else has nukes. It’s just a gg ez ace up your sleeve that can be utilized to prevent this exact conventional warfare escalation by threatening to use your nukes, which is exactly what Israel does to the other surrounding arab states. Moreover it would be dumb to nuke Israel when they keep daydreaming about reconquering the holy land, which would be impossible if its covered in radiation.

    Pakistan and India’s LoC is a massive militarized flashpoint that imo suprasses the DMZ, yet overtime they have a fight, it over after a few days when they nuke threat comes out and everyone signs a ceasefire agreement no questions asked.

    Iran wants the same deal so they can be left alone to run their authoritarian regime in peace lol.


  • I honestly think Iran is too defanged to make a difference with escalation. Israel flexed their capability heavily and eliminated part of Iran’s C&C and a lot of their military and nuclear assets in one go, and they’re still continuing with strikes for any mop up.

    It’s a win-win situation for them because they’ve got the US to defend them and they can go almost full force on whatever they deem a threat.

    It might technically backfire for Netanyahu if Iran fails to mount any serious counteroffensive, at which point he won’t have any escalation path to stay in power, but it’s still a big win for Israel’s interests.

    Also not related to the question, but this proves HTS in Syria is just another CIA project that will follow Washington’s demands no questions asked since they clearly allowed Israel to operate within their airspace.








  • Lol nah, they might be generally well designed, but they’ve been making it all in China (until now for tariff bypass) for decades now, so you don’t get the Japanese OEM quality shine you usually get out of other electronics.

    Most of the repair will be for damaged consoles. Switch 1 battery lasted pretty well considering most phone batteries begin to deteriorate around 4 years.

    Aside from that though, I expect the joycon drift issue to be unfixed which will be the real issue, especially as warranties expire.






  • I mean, it’s still quite the elephant in the room that hasn’t really been talked about.

    Judaism is a restricted affair, you have to be born into it to be considered a part of the group that God has chosen to be saved. To them, almost everyone else is permanently non qualified, therefore they are not in the group. If you do want to convert, you have to jump through a bunch of hoops, and put up with a ritual of rejection until you’re accepted. By definition it’s an ethno-relegious group.

    From that viewpoint, it’s only a skip away from ethno-nationalism, which is what Zionism is.

    Unlike Christianity and Islam which offer the ability to join, and actively convince you to join. (Also Hinduism, Buddhism, etc).

    There are only about 15 million Jews compared to 2.6 billion Christian and 1.9 billion Muslims.

    Food for thought.
