Yeah, no fucking shit. Could have told you that without the need to spend 100's of millions of dollars on the investigation. Here's a free one for you. Google, Apple, Microsoft, Amazon, listen to phone calls and ease drop on conversations near home assistants too. The fact that you get an ad for the thing you just talked about 10 min ago should prove that to even the dumbest asshole.

You nailed it. I left Twitter the day he took over, haven't looked back once. Anyone still using it is perfectly fine with the dumpster fire and can burn in it.

Yeah same. Myself and at least a dozen friends have been using them for at least a decade with zero issues. Guess we are just lucky.

I've seen some people don't like them, not 100% why, but I have had pretty good luck with IPTorrents. I also use Blutopia sometimes.

Is there a way to enable mouse Copy/Paste in Google Docs in FireFox? (lemm.ee)

As title says. I used Chrome for years, but last year switched to Firefox instead. I still use Google Docs a lot, and while I can Copy & Paste using keyboard shortcuts, I'd like the option to use the mouse as well. But for greedy reasons, Google thinks that's just too much power for Firefox to have. Does anyone know how to give Firefox the ability?

With PLEX blocking Hetzner Hosting, I'm thinking of Moving to Jellyfin, but I have some questions. (lemm.ee)

I use Hetzner as a seedbox and then have PLEX as my media server ran on the same hardware. It's worked perfectly fine for years. But recently PLEX says they will be blocking Hetzner hosting in the next few weeks. I've been considering moving to Jellyfin for a while, but I'm worried they will do the same thing in future.

Does anyone know if that's a real possibility?

Also, if I setup a VPN and just download stuff I torrent from my seedbox to a local PLEX server, would I be in any more risk of legal issues then I am now?

Am I looking at this completely wrong, and I should do something completely different?

To clarify what I am thinking of doing:

Keep my Hetzner as my seedbox and continue to download using my IPTorrents account. Setup a Local Plex or Jellyfin server and download from my seedbox to that local server that will be ran behind a VPN.

UPDATE: So this past weekend I did some testing and JellyFin is now my new Media Streaming software on my server. Going to take some time to learn how it works compared to PLEX, but so far things have been nearly 1 to 1. Thanks everyone for the help, I'm very grateful.
