Canada for me!
Canada for me!
I just choked on my drink. Fucking hilarious
This is the nicest way someone’s put it. I’ve tried to switch to Linux three or four times but until there is a distro that makes it plug and play like Windows or mac its going to be a tough sell. I consider myself tech savvy enough (I can google things, and for goodness sake at the bare minimum I can cut and paste into the terminal) but the barrier for getting Linux to work is too high right now for a very large part of the population.
I have W10 computer running the arrs and my plex server that I’m going to have to figure out as I can’t get W11 on it.
I want to do it so bad!.. but I think I’ll probably just end up getting a new, used computer that can run W11
I’m a teacher. I’m looking forward to summer vacation starting June 29th where I get to have 66 days off to be with my 3 kids. They’re now at a really fun age and I can’t wait
This is the craziest thing to me…
I live in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada. I put my boots or shoes on at the door before I go out, and I take them off when I get home. If I get cold feet, I may put on slippers.
Inside the house, I’m bare foot or in socks. If I take the trash out and it’s nice, I go out barefoot. If it’s snowy or frigid cold (I’ll leave the Winnipeg weather up to you for a fun google) I put on my boots.
I don’t know anyone who wears shoes indoors unless they are elderly and need the support. It’s a sign of middle age / senior age living here.

I use this on my Chromecast. It’s far prettier than the monstrosity that is that Google Chromecast home screen
4 years ago next week marks my mom’s diagnosis and the 10 months that followed. Watching your loved ones go slowly insane and become unable to speak and move in such a short time (she was mid 50s) when they should be healthy changes you. Everything I look at, everything I think about is now looked at under a different lense. And given my age, there just aren’t a lot of people around me who have any idea what it’s like and assume it’s just handling the pain.
Like… no. I’m different now.
Before the reddit api, I used to read around 24-28 books a year depending on length (Sanderson’s tomes will always change that number because it’s like reading 2 or 3 regular books)
Last year I hit 35. I didn’t really read books over 1000 pages much last year but I definitely know I’m reaching for a book when I would normally doomscroll reddit.
Thank you. I am seriously considering this instead as I think I minimum spend around $40usd buying 4tb blocks on sale. If I forget to grab during a sale, that bumps to $45 per tb
Thank you taking the time to respond with such a detailed response. I wasn’t too worried about it as I don’t do my shady stuff on mobile but figured it was worth the ask.
Other than a couple of bad faith actors here and there, I’ve found this community to be super tolerant and helpful - thanks!
I didn’t put anything in. But I went there (on mobile). Any real risk?
I’m kinda over this conversation. I posted asking for input, not someone being argumentative. If you had a stronger argument, maybe I’d change my ways and look into what you’re saying. I politely tried to say I hear you, but I’m good with what I do and you keep digging. At no point have you said anything that makes a strong case, helpful to what I asked or isn’t dismissive. Have a good night
I imagine it must be nice living in a place where your government doesn’t care. Enjoy your free torrents. I’m ok with a few bucks here and there
I’ll answer this one.
I tried it years ago, ran into issues. Posted on reddit, bunch of snobby assholes just shit on me for not being as tech literate
Two: I use Chromecasts on everything and there’s no Chromecast app.
I’d overlook number 1 because I don’t get that feeling here on lemmy. But I definitely need a Chromecast solution
I used to pay for a VPN and torrent everything but I’ll be honest, $ for $ it costs the same or less AND there is way more selection. I’m ok to pay a little for a better service. I don’t have to figure out what’s streaming on what and I get high quality tv and movies for pennies on the dollar. Even if I went the “free” route I still have to pay for a vpn
Are there any drawbacks to h. 265?
I mostly watch Plex on my home network, however I use a Chromecast to watch Plex remote from my location with slow internet. Would this be an issue? Would it make the experience better?
I’m running two external tens and I just bought an 18. I’d love to save some space and I’ll have to buy a drive for a long time.
This looks cool!
Unfortunately I don’t know anything about Python or docker… Thanks for the link, maybe I’ll try and figure this out on my next holiday.
They already send the tv’s out at cost to collect your data to sell.
They’re starting to ship them with chips in them to send the data away whether connected to WiFi or not
And they’re taking screenshots of what you watch, including when you plug in a laptop.
We’re almost there
