Explain this to me more thoroughly? Does this mean physically going to the library and using their Wi-Fi? Or are you talking about something else?

Came here expecting to see Nord. Glad I didn't.

I littoral-ly thought it was a typo

Cool thanks. Does everyone already know this and I'm the only one who has never heard of this before?

She seems nice.

Look at those ferns though!

I'm old, so keep that in mind.

I saw 2001: A Space Odyssey in the theater when I was 7. I wasn't even with my family, I was with a friend and his parents. It freaked me the freak out. That space baby at the end. The dreams I had.

But I NEED to break the law.

Well, alright then. As long as it's for business.

Games - alive at least as long as Empress is.

Edit: I expect controversy

 

The same way it does in Google maps, and in Waze. But I can't seem to find a setting on the phone that will do that for any other apps, and I can't find any information through internet searches that leave me that direction.

As usual, they show me what they think I ought to be looking for, which is how to lock an app. Not the question I asked, Google (or anybody else).

Is it impossible or does anybody have a tip? Not looking to go down the unlocking my phone root access path either. It's not that big a deal, I could turn on trusted devices, or extend unlock, but those aren't the solutions I'm looking for.

 

It seems like something new asking me to enable DRM in order to play the content on my Plex? That doesn't seem like a good idea to me.

Is there something I should do to make this message go away and make my system safer?

 

...on the good things and ruin it for everyone. How would one go about letting people know, in a responsible manner.

Hypothetically.

 

I am the older male head of household.

Edit: It's over now. Thank you all for your kindness. It has definitely helped me.

 

In unrelated news, music piracy is on the rise.

PS. I am sorry that my wording of this rubbed so many people the wrong way. This is a truly a nasty update of terms and agreements, and it's going to hurt a lot of people financially.

If it's all fine with you stay in. But if it's not you have a little over 30 days to get out.

 

I guess it's just the way my brain doesn't assimilate information well, but I went at it assuming that when I was done I would have a product that would show up in Plex and allow me to use as a browser within the Plex system. Now that I'm done I realize it's just a single device install that that results in something that looks like a web page, and will need to be repeated on any other device that I want to use it on. Pretty underwhelming, and a s*** ton of work for what I end up with.

Anyway as I said I'm not very good at processing large chunks of information, so if I'm underusing it please let me know how I should properly be doing things.

I am requesting comments.

Edit: okay, I set it up on my wife's iPad easily using Safari and it seems to work fine. Thank you all, I truly didn't know what I was doing and I still don't, but so far so good.

 

I trust the provider, and it's a small amount I'm willing to risk. Just don't want to throw it away, be frustrated, or get involved with shady people.

Android/Windows user, btw.

Late Edit: for those people who are wondering why I would ask Lemmy strangers about my money decisions, let me tell you my thinking.

I am in the decision making process. One of the things I do when making decisions is gather information from a variety of sources. I then weigh that information as to how useful I find it, research any possible leads, and use it as a launching point for my own investigation. I find that beats the hell out of googling whatever I can think up on my own in a field where I have no experience whatsoever.

For clarification, I'm not telling anyone else how to do anything. You humans live your life however you want, and I respect you as individuals with opinions of your own. Live how you want to live, choose how you want to choose, be how you want to be.

Much peace to all ✌️

 

or even pseudo-incriminated for attempting to maintain our own life.

It seems so stupid that I'm like a suspect for wanting an exchange of information without dropping my pants and bending over. No, I don't want cookies. Yes I want to read the article but no, I don't want to "sign up."

It makes me feel like being a f*cking hermit. But I prefer to pirate. Even though I'm not that good at it. Screw them. I got two private trackers, a VPN, and I hope that's enough.

 

...I just accidentally downloaded my entire watch history from the beginning of time. Stopped it by hitting airplane mode. It was at 1750+ and growing.

Oops.

This is probably a ridiculous question, but I usually stream from my laptop to my LG tv or my phone to any other tv, and I find that using my VPN keeps the casting output option from working. Like in Popcorntime, the Watch Now doesn't show my tv, only the laptop app or VLC. On my daughter's fire stick I can't even cast to it unless I turn my VPN off.

I don't have any problem streaming Plex or Emby from my laptop to the tv. Is there a way to cast without compromising my privacy?

 

A buck an ear.
