But is the option to filter by plane model itself new?

If you're adding a filter so people can avoid a certain plane, it makes sense to add more than one model of plane.

I was just thinking about this lastnight; I don't fly often, but next time I do, I'll be paying attention to which plane is actually used and avoiding the max.

I've never paid any attention to the plane model before.

Boeing fucked up pretty big with this plane if even those that pretty much never fly are thinking this way.

I'd rather a vehicle that can actually move, but has a lower range vs one that wont start to move at all.

Yeah, that's a fantastic way to start a fire. Lithium really doesn't like being treated like lead acid...

Are they supporting FOSS, or looking to buy out the project to make it a closed in-house solution and avoid the bad publicity they created this last week?

Nope. Take your rootkit and go fuck yourself with it.

There's absolutely 0 reason a game should ever have kernel access. Ie unrestricted access to every piece of data on the system.

Yeah, but relying on peoples generosity is less than ideal unfortunately...

On the other hand; when you've got to pay to use a product, you're a bit more entitled to its use and support than a free project that gets worked on at the devs leisure. Especially when the developers maintain that same view.

It's a fine line between securing stable income for your efforts while not limiting the usage of your products. I think Embys developers have done a pretty good job keeping that balance. I've certainly never had an issue with the activation and use of premium features, and the licence I bought 7 years ago has held excellent value. I've just been waiting on some funds to donate ontop as I feel I've gotten more than I've paid for.

For some reason the attendant at the gas station wouldn't accept my pension managers phone number as payment... Maybe the cashier at wallmart will be more understanding.

I originally setup Plex and was immediately unhapy with their always online model as well as really poor support on their forums.

Pretty quickly moved to Emby and have been happy since (7 years). It's not FOSS but it's not locked down nearly as much as Plex, and they have a focus on keeping your info within your own systems. No telemetry.

I don't mind paying a bit to support development, especially when they offer lifetime options instead of being stuck with a monthly subscription.

Jellyfin has branched out more into niche features like watch parties, leaaving some stability to be desired. Especially with apps like smart TVs. Emby has focused more on its core reliability across all platforms, comming up with a product that's nice and stable pretty much everywhere.

Jellyfin was a fork of Emby when Emby went closed source as users kept removing the paywalls for premium features. Development time isn't free; that's not sustainable for a fulltime dev. Since, Jellyfin has barely kept up, lacking the resources/funding to really flesh out their code. (hell, ~75% is still embys code AFAIK)

There's always the software Jellyfin was forked from: Emby.

It does have a paid model to support development, but with single-purchase lifetime options instead of requiring a monthly subscription.

I've been quite happy with it for the last 7 years. Their apps are pretty stable, hardware accelerated transcoding works great, it does a great job identifying content then managing/fetching metadata, and the developers and their community are responsive and helpful.

Ah; then host the OpenVPN server from hetzner, the pi as a client, then configure the server to route traffic out through the pi client into your LAN. Your own little vpn tunnel, instead of using something like cloudflare tunnels.

Wan client > Hetzner > pi client > lan service

OpenVPN host to keep mobile devices behind pihole and able to access non-public lan services.
