The value of an art piece is always subjective. The price (closest thing we have to the objective value) is determined by the buyers.

What other mechanism would there be? A committee? That’s a bit nazi for my taste. A popular vote? Look at the election results to see why that might be a bad idea.

The theme is a bit touchy these days, especially in certain small country in eastern europe, where the new minister started to cut subsidies to the art she considers unworthy, obscene and politicized, in favor of art reflecting so called traditional values and national identity. The mere existence of the ministry of culture, established with the most noble goal of supporting art, creates this kind of potential vulnerability.

That’s because they’re not going to actually do it.

What are the capitalists doing to prevent you from expressing artistically?

So the native gnu userspace will become the third most used desktop linux runtime :P

Yes. Jellyfin will index the media files and push all the metadata along with the file paths on the network share they both can see to the local kodi database. That way browsing the library on kodi does not suffer any additional latency, but you also lose some advanced jellyfin functionality like on the fly re-encoding.

That’s strange. I’m using the old Jellyfin addon (not the JellyCon), and so far only encountered one bug in total, which, if you are familiar with kodi addon ecosystem, is basically unheard of. And even that one is related to my non-standard manual configuration that allows me to use WebDAV instead SMB or NFS. It’s using the wrong type of escaping for certain special characters, which is understandable, because who in their right mind uses WebDAV?

Kodi itself can act as a frontend for Jellyfin.

Native? Isnt it a web app?

But would the 2 pictures fit together? When you shorten the lens-display distance, you basically zoom in.

What else do you expect from a magnet based society?

You are right my brother in arms, let’s overthrow the cooks! Enough with their bullshit already! Free burgers for everyone! Burgers to the people! People’s burgers!

When thoughts like this trouble me, I simply realize how awesome it is that you can simply summon a burger using the magic box in your pocket. What a great time to be alive!

If my grandma wanted a burger at my age, she would have to wake up early in the morning to catch a good spot in queue in front of the butcher shop.

very same factories that produce consumer goods with a profit incentive today, can do the same for the benefit of the people tomorrow.

Yes. Until everyone ends up in poverty, because over time, nobody knows what to make and how much. The longer the supply chain the stronger the effect will be.

But there’s nobody to prepare the fries. The economy has transformed entirely to eating the rich…

The proof is in the pudding… we need more heroes like that.

govt owning shares, honestly. That way the public would get a voice

How would a public get a voice? The government would have a voice.

So what’s stopping them?

40 years ago civic planners decided pollen was easier to deal with than seed drop.

Well, screw those people! In both nostrils!

Sounds like a Babylon 5 character. I vote for Lemmier!
