Getting a cease and desist from Sony for finding the master key is pretty impressive. Except he also jailbroke the first iPhone. Doing it twice is beyond impressive and proves he's the real deal.

You use Plex because you think it's easier to use than Emby/Jellyfin. It would behoove you to recognize where you have been successfully marketed to. It's odd to reply to a thread about a piece of software that has always bee

College burned me out. The solution was, as another commenter suggested, to drop the baggage and move on. I had a semester left and my career in front of me. Which do you think I picked? Waiting another semester wouldn't have helped me
