I try a lot of stuff that's a lot younger than Jellyfin but I respect your position on it. From what I've read the most serious identified issue will allow unauthorized playback, but one requirement for the exploit is knowing the local system path for the media. It forked from emby somewhere around 8 or so years back and I managed to trust emby back then so maybe I'm being a bit overly naive.

My main issue with Plex is that it only supports using its auth servers so when their having an outage, so am I; I'd rather control the media server and it's IdP.

Same here, I've had a lifetime pass for a bit over a decade but now I just keep it for coworkers and some family members. Jellyfin just runs better 99% of the time.

Which problems? The only one I know of requires the attacker to know the exact media path on the local server, even if they figure that out all they gain is the ability to view that file.

Seriously though, if there is a bigger vulnerability out there, I'd love to know about it (the only one I found would allow unauthorized viewing).

I suppose it was. The method is drive down dirt roads until you think you see a roof poking through the brush. Take the address to the courthouse and look up who owns the land, then call. We lived there for free, granted it was an old drafty house and was missing window panes here and there. Those we filled with cardboard or plywood (cut to fit the hole), and tapped into place. Our bathroom didn't have a door, sink (it had a sink, but it was never hooked up), or floor leading up to it (just step joist to joist and don't rush or you could fall into the dirt/mud under that end of the house).

I'm in my 40s now and just in the past decade or so did I realize how bad it looked from the outside looking in, but to a kid, that was just life. I thought everyone had multiple refrigerators because when one quits working, you just go to the auction and get another to put beside it, as kids we thought it was funny to tell guests to open the other one because it got insanely gross after a while (maggots, black slime that food eventually turned into, etc.).

I recently retired my old Pebble Steel, had to replace the leather band at one point, and break it free of the old dead infrastructure but it was great for a long time. Eventually the screen quit redrawing (battery was still good for most of the week), so I'm trying out being watchless.

American Gods is one that always trips me out, they just kind of left the main character hanging out on a limb so to speak.

His argument should be that nothing was on his phone and he was repeatedly asking for a lawyer so he could make sure it wasn't illegal to give out the PIN intended to be given when the user is under duress. To be fair, the guy was begging to be informed of what rights he had, he couldn't leave, and people with guns had him in a room and kept insisting he was a criminal.

As one of those kids, he'll probably turn out okay. As a juror, it's better to let a piece of shit go free than make an innocent person rot in jail.

When the kid grows up I would almost guarantee that he would make the same decision.
