  • even if you’re already logged in, apps do not find and recognize your local server without internet access.

    You set your server in those app’s settings to not use direct connect and thus they are being routed through Plex’s servers

    When you select your Plex libraries from the drop-down there are usually 2 options, one will be the local IP and say (direct), that’s always the best choice if you’re able

    I just turned off my Internet connection to my Chromecast and tested, no issues with accessing my media







  • who are familiar with technical terminology and several concepts and steps are left out and implied rather than explained.

    Said it before and I’ll say it again: had to manually install some software to make Steam tinker launch work, and the instructions for installing it were to download and prepare the GitHub folder, then “do the usual and move the completed file to …”

    Ive used git in the past and it still took me multiple minutes to figure out they meant the “make && build” command. Why was that so hard to fucking write??

    There’s also been an upsetting trend of smash burgers taking over every fucking restaurant. Ridiculously wide and flat patties that have a lot of flavor but it feels like you’re eating a fried piece of cheese rather than a good burger.

    I didn’t say that wasn’t true, but if it’s the go-to phrase of the masses then it’s accurate to put it in an NPC meme. People who dislike AI but don’t understand the tech enough to actually understand why usually give that answer, whereas people with actual knowledge on the subject tend to put more nuance into even their shorter replies on the topic
