Your entire post sounds like user-problem? I’ve only experienced one false-alarm in my entire life… and that was because I had a guest who assumed I’d be okay with her smoking in my living room.

Keep in mind that the car-stealing device reportedly costs around $20,000, so the likelihood of it being in the ownership of a thief isn’t extremely high.

What is this magic device that costs so much?

I’ve got a license to drive heavy-weight vehicles, I should be allowed to ride my ebike at 90km/h, pretty please?

You mean with their antitheism?

She should discuss that with a doctor instead of self-medicating with addictive substances.

You mean suicide lines, right?

Being married is gift as well.

Hmm, that’s maybe also why American toilets get clogged all the time if they release the water so slowly? Mine empties the entire tank and stops filling the bowl after like a second or two, regardless if it got blocked or not. I can’t even reach any kind of “stopper” in the tank without opening the entire thing

That’s Russia’s naval ensign.

“apparently it was a total mess, the driver won’t share the dashcam footage for that very reason” nonsense.

Great build quality though, can’t even open the driver’s door anymore!!!

I don’t know all the numbers, but the point isn’t to make money from people paying for API access, but to force people to use their official applications – which meets their goals of farming more data/advertising money/engagement/whatever.

Meh, I guess I’ve been at much more humane workplaces, where it feels nicer to get my work done efficiently and then no one cares if I leave much earlier.

What a horrible pipeline you have. There’s surely some way you could speed up that process?

an approximate location based on cell tower triangulation (which is kind of hit or miss, sometimes it’s really accurate, other times it’s basically useless)

I thought it was some kind of law that newer phones have to send accurate GPS coordinates?

wtf, what’s so special about it?

Freely learn about many subjects, just as long as you aren’t wondering what happened on the 4th of June 1989.

I assume the people in the picture were “melanin enriched”? There you have your answer.

It’s a shame that you can’t know when seeing such posts if the person resharing it has good intentions or not. “Don’t open your door for strangers” is often good advice after all.

“TILLSKANSNING”?

Unless you have somehow managed to get the source code, no, Plex is not free software unfortunately!

Plex Inc has a central auth server, and your media server automatically creates a dynamic hostname for connecting to your server’s IP. And if the user can’t reach the server directly for some reason (NAT for example), Plex has a “relay server” that works as a proxy, but your quality gets reduced to like 320p or something.

So if Plex Inc shut down their auth servers suddenly (or have downtime, which happened a couple years ago), you won’t be able to do much. It’s possible to bypass the central auth, but no one does it, because such auto-discovery is one of Plex’s benefits – user logs in on their app, and it shows all their possible servers. But otherwise, it’s self-hosted.
