Opus 5.5 blocks any biology research that even remotely looks like this. I guess that the "safeguards" are for peasants only.

Not all crap is created equal, some needs censoring.

It was fairly impossible to find a restaurant in Paris that had an AC not so long time ago. It’s totally not an issue in states.

Play Integrity checks if app was tampered with. Hardware attestations can only guarantee key's source and cannot be used to check app integrity.

It’s hard to justify the UI rant when there is annoying snowflakes animation on top of it.

If you split all the changes for a feature this way not only you hide the way all changes interact with each other but also make the development at least 10x longer because an average approval time is often more than a day.

It's because an average Apple engineer has to enter his password at least 10 times a day and it's kind of no big deal for them. Source: I was an Apple eng.

Actually after reading it more carefully I probably see why it didn't work for me, but the notes in the page are bizarre:

* Avoid special characters such as * in M*A*S*H, use MASH instead.

Since when a common ASCII character is a special one? What about more common unicode characters I use?

* Do not abbreviate the Season folder with S01 or SE01 or alike.

I.e. if I put anything not in the folder named "Season XX" it won't work? Ugh... really?

* Season folders shouldn't contain the series name, otherwise Jellyfin can in certain cases (Stargate SG-1 due to the dash and one, for instance) misdetect your episodes and put them all under the same season.

Well, how about to fix it?

* Episode numbering for specials may vary from metadata provider to metadata provider.

Very helpful, so the "Series XX" required above won't always work.

And even if everything above fails why not to sort by name? It should not be hard for any engineer, right?

I have the series in their own folders. I tried to do a more nested structure to no avail. After a day of attempts to fix it I switched to Plex and it despite having its own quirks just worked fine.

Thanks, I can google. For some reason Jellyfin totally ignores folder structures for me.

I have one folder with movies and series. It shows as a randomized mix, maybe it uses something like modification time by default? It's definitely not by name.
