  • I agree with this. Self-hosting requires the user to understand their network, their software, how it all interacts.

    If you provide a hardware product and call it a solution, people are going to expect a turn-key solution like a plug-and-play router.

    You’re going to end up supporting a bunch of newbies who, by no fault of their own, can’t tell you an error code in the console let alone whatever UI you give them.

    I think a better solution would be a course that walks newbies through self hosting.








  • On December 11, 1939, the U.S. Government sued the Ball Brothers, the Hazel-Atlas Glass Co., and the Owens-Illinois Glass Co. under monopoly charges based on the Hartford-Empire and Owens licensing agreements. The plaintiff claimed that small producers were being frozen out of business or prohibited from entering manufacture by the nature of the licenses. Almost a decade later, in 1947, the justices rendered a final verdict. The court prohibited the Ball Brothers from purchasing or otherwise controlling any other businesses engaged in the same manufacturing processes – in other words, the small jar producers. In addition, Ball had to divest itself of the Three Rivers Glass Co. (already closed for almost a decade) that Ball had acquired in 1936. Ball sold the property


  • I really don’t know the architecture of fmovies but my guess is that it works similarly to sudo-lol but with specific providers instead of a long list of available providers.

    Even still, I’ve wondered how those providers load new content since I’ve never seen a way for end users to upload new files.

    Shows like Last Week Tonight get uploaded almost the same day.

    Anyway, to answer your question, I think fmovies is back with their .lol tld though I’ve moved over to sudo.

    There’s always going to be a replacement because clearly there’s a market for it. If only the people who actually hold the rights would realize that.
