politics @lemmy.world•Justice Department sues to block California's new House map in clash that could tip control of Congress
7·28 days agoIf a state receives a court order that their maps are illegal, they just have to throw up their hands and pretend there’s no time to change them until the election takes place. Then they can use the illegal maps and face no consequences. This precedent has been set in multiple legislatures controlled by the bastards.

26·1 month agoMakeMKV has worked well for me. I was using it on a 10 year old PC until I recently upgraded.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why don't cars have a way to contact nearby cars like fictional spaceships do?
16·1 month agoImagine the giant trucks road raging because you’re in the left lane and only going +20 the speed limit. Or the old creeps hitting on teenagers.
What if we instead imagine the truck drivers politely asking you to move over? What if the ability to communicate freely with other drivers made the experience closer to walking in a crowd. I’m imagining something that allows all vehicles within a certain radius to hear one another so you can communicate with courtesy. I think a lot of road rage stems from our frustrations with our inability to communicate (and be held accountable) by the people around us.

politics @lemmy.world•Republicans grapple with voter frustration over rising health care premiums
53·2 months agoI’d say apathy should be interpreted as a vote for the status quo (incumbent) but it’s flatly wrong to call it a vote at all.

21·2 months agoRealistically any deal should at a minimum require the president actually follow the law. If that is too high a bar for the conservatives to clear then what is the point of working with them?

9·2 months agoAlso, I think health insurance and all insurance is a scam, just be clear!
What even is her position here? She is against single payer and against insurance companies. Does she want us paying for everything out of pocket?

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•My first jellyfin setupEnglish
2·2 months agoYou’re correct. The Fire Stick would be a client. I currently use a Pi 4 as my server and it works great, but I use KODI instead of jellyfin. This means that nothing trys to transcode when I use it. However, my brother is able to connect to my server through Tailscale and he does some sort of GPU pass thru with a jellyfin container and as far as I know it works great.

3·2 months agoIf you’re looking for mini PC recommendations, I have been very happy with my Beelink Ser8. It was chosen specifically for handbrake encoding and is an order of magnitude faster than my underpowered decade old desktop.
Edit. I just reread your post saying that you don’t want to buy a mini PC so disregard that advice but if you want to stream to TVs on a budget, I am a big fan of the Fire Stick. If you get them on sale, they’re usually available for half the listed price (about $25 when I got them). You can get them on ebay if you don’t want to support Bozos. Currently they’re very easy to configure and they work great as long as you can get over the clunky menu design.

I’d say virtually all Hispanic people have some Native American ancestry. The number of Hispanic people living in the Americas with an exclusively European lineage is probably very small. But, that’s just like my opinion, man.
