Reddit Tries to Get Users to Pay by Making App Icon Ugly
I wonder whether the average person is really as retarded as they are made out to be by large corporations.

How do you guys cope with the fact that the world isn't getting any better?
I just don't expose myself to the 24h news cycle very much. My life is good, the life of the people around me is good, and nobody is helped by worrying about things I can't change.

would you write web app with this?
As a python developer and user of websites, please no. The web is already a slow mess and my laptop is already spinning up fans on some websites that really shouldn't do anything much more complicated than load text and images from a database and display them. CPython would make it exponentially worse. At least pick a sensible performance focused implementation.

How do you keep track of all apps you install and their configurations?
Git.
Keep all the config files of your tools in subdirectories of a git versioned directory and symlink them into their target location (e.g. with GNU stow). If installation of a tool is involved and you expect to have to revisit it, put the steps into an installation bash script and version it as well.

Now that Plex is dead, where to find servers/what platform?

Agreed, as long as you handle the HTTPS or VPN setup, and set up any automatic media downloading ( jellyseer, sonarr and radarr and jackett) the end product is certifiably wife approved and works nicely out of the box

Choose wisely
So I guess the concept of "death" is now politically incorrect, huh. What a time to be alive.

China says US military aid to Taiwan will not deter its will to unify the island
Reply in thread
The fact that you call it a civil war is all we need to know.
edit: my bad, looking at your home instance would have been an even better way of immediately knowing you're full of shit.
edit2: and yes, I am fully aware that both Taiwan and the PRC officially view themselves as the legitimate government of the whole of China but it's pretty fucking clear that in practice they are separate countries to anyone who is not snorting red propaganda like a champ.
