I think I can see where they’re going with it, but it is a bit hard to write out

Say I set up my favorite service in house, and said service has a client app. If I create my own DNS at home and point the client to the entry, and the service is running an encrypted connection with a self signed cert it can give the client app fits for being untrusted.

Compare that to putting NPM in front of the app, using it to get a LetsEncrypt cert using the DNS record option (no need to have LE reach the service publicly) and now you have a trusted cert signed by a public CA for the client app to connect to.

I actually do the same for a couple internal things that I want the local traffic secured because I don’t want creds to be sniffable on the wire, but they’re not public facing. I already have a domain for other public things so it doesn’t cost anything extra to do it this way.

Epstein’s buddy said what?

This settlement might help because Trump has directed one $22 million payment YouTube will make to the body overseeing his pet project – construction of a ballroom at the White House. Another $2.5 million payment will go to plaintiffs who joined the case and also felt YouTube infringed their rights.

A true man of the people, a couple scraps for however many may have felt their ‘rights’ to spout their conspiracies in YouTube where infringed, and 10X that for a fancy room for rich people to party in and plan how to become richer.

You know, this calls for some snarky comment, but I’m pretty sure my Idiocracy meter blew a fuse in there…

I was probably using Emby already by then, had bought a lifetime license since it didn’t require bouncing things off and outside server like Plex did (or was it that Plex was a renewing subscription, I forget) , so it just stayed out of inertia.

I can’t say I’ve given Jellyfin a proper try (as in using it and the clients exclusively for a long period) but we have been using Emby for quite a while before I knew it existed.

If I’m not mistaken Jellyfin is actually a fork of Emby so they’re pretty similar, but one is a bit older.

Of course we can fully believe information pushed by the current Tylenol=Autism administration too. Not to say everyone did great then, but I’d bet that the next report will show MASSIVE growth and prosperity (for the 0.001%) to claim we’re all great again.

Edit: also notable, the article cited how it got so much worse after 2022, guess what also happened then?

Trump doesn’t have major shifts, he has momentary whims based on what he thinks will gain him praise and/or money.

Hadn’t said anyone should give them what they want, but I see them using as a pretext to try a power grab.

Likely will try and pull some ‘because congress is absent’ emergency rule bullshit to grab for full dictator powers.

He’ll get about $3.50

Many places refer to secure email when they mean a portal that function is more like a private chat app. A lot of them are even sold as ‘secure mail’ but don’t use anything resembling SMTP.

Instead you log into a page, and send a message to the specified recipient who might have an email style address on it, or maybe on the backend it uses their email system for authentication even.
