It needs access to the file system. But why would it need access to the whole thing? Just download to its own storage, no? Then use something else to copy elsewhere.

Unless this is to support saving to any folder, or built in smb support or something.

Wait, why would libretorrent require all files access?

ok but your comment isn’t related to this particular case

Because they weren’t selling 3000 a day. They were selling a huge number a minute, one day (maybe a couple).

sit on them until the stock gets like a 1-day 5% drop so they can misrepresent the situation

ok, but that didn’t happen here

It’s not fun from the inside (not Google).

Side-thing, but man am I very happy with Neon and where KDE is overall.

Finally went to Linux Desktop as my main, after trying off and on for 20 years.

Yeah those early ones - and the one I’m thinking of was like the first big-screen flatpanel they sold, sometime in the late 90s - were extra extra bad about power.

In theory, it would allow them to reduce costs to compete better with rivals and sell more.

But usually it’s the thing you said. Capitalism fundamentals are pretty broken in most markets.

Uh, ok

It’s your problem now. This is the kind of thing that happens.

Eh, I find Emby pretty close to on-par at this point.

I’m also not particularly happy with giving a bunch of people VPB access to my setup. Or other potential complications that come with that setup.

I know enough to be able to lock it down, but I dont want the hassle. And other people will want it less.

I’m pretty happy with Emby, which also lets me easily do remote streaming.

I assume they replied to you after someone downvoted you but before all the upvotes.

And how are you doing remote streaming from friends with Jellyfin?

I remember a 42" plasma TV that cost $12,000 at Best Buy.

324TB misc here for duty

I find it hard to believe because I work at an adjacent company who has made similar claims and it is complete bullshit.

I do think there is some about of “AI provided a smart complete and the developer hit ‘tab’ to take the changes” equalling “this code was written by AI” in some metrics that go to the execs. And since the execs mandated high AI use everyone is fine just saying they have high AI use regardless of how true it is.

Do you have a source?
