For sure, I took no offense, and I can totally understand how anyone might assume that AI would be good at producing a map, so, until it’s possible I feel like I have to keep showing my job’s still relevant! Pretty fucked up actually.

Yeah, but that’s the thing, the experts (GIS people and cartographers in general) would immediately tell you that AI can’t make accurate maps. As someone who makes maps as a chunk of my job, I’m not at all surprised.
Which, like you said, is telling about LLMs in general, but it should also remind all of us that for the most part, people get paid for their job because they have cultivated their skills over the course of their career.
I can make a really good data-driven map from scratch in minutes. That’s a skill I have devoted years to, and I get paid because my employer likes the quality of the maps I make and how fast I can make them.
It’s exhausting to see people try to take my job by generating the shittiest potato-quality crap, and thinking it’s acceptable.


Really interesting that you’ve encountered this, I have no trouble at all watching super-high bitrate media in Infuse. I may be spoiled with my gigabit internet, but the Apple TV caches entire 4K Blu-rays in minutes on my local network (you can watch the seek bar fill up, it’s really satisfying) so I never thought about this. I’m curious why this hits some users and not others.


As others have said, Jellyfin server with Infuse as the player on Apple TV is the best experience, especially for Dolby Vision, which works flawlessly. Anyone in your house should find the interface super-easy to navigate. But if the price of Infuse turns you off (which I get), the native Jellyfin app on Apple TV isn’t terrible (Swiftfin), and there are some other less-polished apps for way cheaper than Infuse (MrMc I think?). The native Jellyfin app struggles with Dolby Vision, otherwise you’ll have no trouble with it, but definitely a slightly clunkier experience than with Infuse. I personally find the price of Infuse way too high, but I can’t argue with the stability and slick UI.
The Apple TV also caches content really well, so you won’t run into any issues with high bitrates over streaming. I regularly watch full 4K Dolby Vision Blu-rays (50-70 GB files) with buttery smooth playback, no issues at all.


You’ve just unlocked the Empathy skill tree, congrats!
I wish my neighbors acted like they knew other people lived here…


I came across this post after checking the rules to see if there was a “must credit original artist” rule, and was frankly shocked to find out there isn’t, which means Beep isn’t breaking any rules by plagiarizing other people’s comics.
So yeah, we need a place to discuss this type of thing, and hopefully the mod will be responsive and add the new rule.
It shouldn’t be controversial, I’m sick of seeing uncredited art.


I frankly don’t have the patience to explain why you’re so wrong, but I can’t let this kind of comment go unanswered, so here’s an article that links to a number of studies about the benefits of diversity:


Haaretz, the Israeli newspaper, is the source of that poll. Here’s the original link to the article that discusses it (it’s paywalled, which is probably why it’s so hard to find).
The poll was conducted in May, so the numbers have probably changed a bit, but I totally understand your skepticism. Unfortunately, as an American Jew who is the grandchild of Holocaust survivors, I’ve spent a lot of time in Israel, have Israeli family, and I have no trouble believing these numbers. It’s difficult not to generalize, but based on my personal experiences with my family, as well as talking with Israeli Jews, Israeli Arabs, and Palestinians who live in the occupied territories, there is disgusting widespread hatred against Palestinians and Muslims in general that has been completely normalized across Israeli society. It’s by no means every single person, there are still loads of lefty anti-establishment and anti-Zionist movements, but I have no trouble saying that the majority of Israelis hold abhorrent views about Palestinians. It’s definitely not antisemitic to describe the hatred I’ve witnessed coming from Jews against Palestinians. I can’t even count the number of horrendous things I’ve seen.
Racial slurs are the norm, racial profiling is legal and expected at the entry to every public business, segregation is expected and accepted, Jewish children are taught to hate Palestinians, and every Israeli (with some exceptions) is conscripted into the military, so they are all indoctrinated into a system of state violence.
The person you were responding to seems to think that murder is acceptable in service of a just cause, and I couldn’t disagree more. Murder and violence are never justified, even against those committing them.
I have a couple suggestions, the first may be obvious, but Jellyfin settings can be pretty convoluted so you never know.
What you may be looking for is the difference between “Up Next” and “Latest” (or “Recently Added?” can’t remember exactly, I already powered down for the night). You can add one or both as sections to your home page, which should keep all your latest additions front and center, while also keeping track of the stuff you’re currently watching, if you want.
My more advanced suggestion is to check out the SmartPlaylists plugin. It may not do exactly what you’re imagining, but it’s surprisingly powerful once you get used to the slightly weird UI and rules setup. You can build playlists based on very specific fine-tuned rules, so you could pretty easily set up playlists to only show what you want to see, and they automatically update as your library changes, which is pretty cool.
