Alright I’ll admit that it’s generalized.

I’ll amend my statement. Those are the things we do because they’re respectful to the people we care about. OP, if you don’t want a relationship with your family in the future, then absolutely go for it and sever ties with them.

I’ve cut off family before, you just sever ties if they bring you no joy. What you don’t do though is act sulky and try to blame it on religion ( which they did, because if it wasn’t relevant they wouldn’t have mentioned it). That is not a mature way to handle it.

I have both a loving and caring side of the family and one who sucks all joy and happiness. I severed one off, the other I put on my good clothes and suffer through them telling me stories of things I don’t care about. That’s what you do when you care about people.

Its the same thing if your best friend goes out/marries someone you don’t like. You can cut off your friend, or you can do something immature like demanding they spend time with only you, or you can be a grown up and put up with their SO because you love your friend and know they make them happy, and you know your friend would be hurt if you made them choose. The spoiler though is that only one of those three options allows you to keep the friendship.

This isn’t about religion, even if you’re trying to make it about religion. You want to get out of your father’s funeral because it makes you uncomfortable.

Life is full of uncomfortable things, you’ll need to get used to it. There’s thousands of times you’ll need to suck it up and be around people you don’t like because it’s the respectful thing to do.

I’m agnostic, used to be atheist. I thought the same thing. Your fathers funeral, family dinners, respectful times, you’re not “making a stand” you’re being whiney and immature. Atheists celebrate Christmas, go to weddings and funerals. We just sit there silently and respectfully. That’s how we actually want to be viewed outside of a religious context.

Figure out the reason you don’t actually want to go and then learn from it. That’s what growing up is.

Yeah I hate saying “use something else” but jellyfin really is not the right tool for audiobooks. OP is seeing the frustration now. Audiobookshelf is the way to go.

Same as White Lives Matter.

Yeah, everyone already knows that, that’s kind of the point of why BLM exists

I think so too. Maybe it will turn out fine, maybe not. Personally I’ve been looking at git histories and waiting a month or so before getting excited, just to see if it will pan out.

Correct, and again, I’m someone who uses AI, I’m not one of the ones who are purely against it. The definition what what I’ve both done and seen:

• Using LLMs to code - fine. It’s a tool, use it as you’re saying. This is not what I’m talking about.
• Using LLMs to vomit out all of your code into one commit is vibecoding. It’s clearly vibecoding when there weren’t even multiple commits. No trial and error, no refinement, just one giant dump.

I do care how it’s coded because it shows how well it will be maintained into the future. If someone uses LLMs over months to build something it will probably be maintained. If someone vomited out all of that code in one vibecoded session, it’s very likely they’ll be bored and in a month it’ll be abandoned. That’s what I’m looking at, because tests can be automated now.

Maybe I’ll be wrong and in a month they’ll have committed hundreds of times and are trying to mature it. I have no evidence of that though, so there is no reason I’d risk trying it out.

Making your own and creating it is great. Maintaining it for years its great. Its why there is so much respect for other projects. You can see the months and years of dedication right in the git history.

Vibe coding something and trying to be on par with the other projects is hubris. It’s assuming you can do a better job than the groups and maintainers with an AI tool. Then to make it worse, it will probably never be updated or maintained. That’s why I and I assume others dislike it. It’s minimal effort with the arrogance on top.

Like I said. I enjoy vibe coding things. I’ve done a few. However I don’t go and pitch them as alternatives to well known OSS projects, because I know my vibe coding could never compare.

What immich, ente, and the others weren’t enough? Had to still vibe code your own?

And I’m saying this as someone who enjoys vibe coding a few projects. I’m not against it. But it’s arrogance to assume you can vibe code something better than proven OSS alternatives

What a totally fun, spontaneous, unscripted video!

I was going to make the joke that we can barely watch them here, but honestly you may have better luck outside the us than we do here

We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We’re going to live on! We’re going to survive! Today we celebrate our Independence Day!

Your first one is this one: https://tacticalbabygear.com/products/tactical-baby-carrier, which looks maybe like it, but in the “Coyote Brown”, but I swear the one I saw had big tacticool pockets on it

Tan military style coloring, padding simulating “armor”, tactical bulky pockets mimicking pockets on military gear, it was pretty obvious if you saw it.

Telling your child almost immediately after birth that you’re embarrassed to be seen carrying/being around them. Not a great look for a new dad.

Oh, it’s simply something for men who are super worried about other men thinking they’re manly enough. They think having a child makes them weak, and so they have to macho it up to super prove to other men that just because they’re… tough? Super manly tough. Like really macho awesome bicep manly.

Yeah I think this wins.

Saw a guy in the airport with a freaking tactical baby carrier. Ultimate poser move.

Yes that was the joke

Huh, why is nvidia saying we should all be using it all the time again?

Stupid movies, think Will Farrell and movies like Anchorman and Step Brothers.

I thought I was top shit in high school and college, that I was so much smarter than the average person and that my tastes were above the general public. Turns out I was just a douche.

Now I know that humans are not binary, that you can like two things for two different reasons. I can enjoy something serious like The Brutalist or The Whale, and then I can also enjoy something silly like Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga (Seriously, you should go watch that, Rachel McAdams is amazing in it). It really simply depends on my mood and my emotions in the moment and what I want to watch.

I’ve also learned that the rating system is broken, because it pits movies that are polar opposites like that in direct competition, and there is no way to compare them. Apples and Oranges. But that’s a separate topic.

Thank you!
