Skimmed comments, but if you download and manage your music on your own on a machine you can have a super simple setup like I do. All music is synced using Syncthing to my phone. So my phone gets local storage, and then I use Poweramp (android) to play it.

I pretty much have a folder for all the music though. But I assume you can sort music into folders to have them as playlists. But perhaps not as practical as desired.

If I had a cent every time an artist on patron had their computer die on them and lost works in progress or all their old stuff… I’d afford a few coffees.

It’s a link to an image on github not sure why it doesn’t work for you. Try just looking at the repo then:

(Windows only warning, unless someone wants to add Linux support)

I didn’t really search around for GUIs way back, but ended up making a basic GUI because I wanted to learn programming.

With just having options as checkboxes for YouTube-dl. It has served me well all these years. It was literally the thing I made while learning programming so the code is pretty janky when I look back at it though…

Buldak is a bit too spicy for me to enjoy. But Nongshim Shin Ramyun is much better tasting, and highly recommend for those that like spicy noodles that aren’t pure fire.

Completely true, but also compression can make anything bad. I’ve seen 480p better 1080p simply because the 480p was using more bitrate, where the 1080p is encoded without enough relatively speaking.

It is not a defense of the manufacturers, but EVs are still damn expensive to make. And they are completely at fault for that too, because everyone except Tesla dragged their feet about making the EV transition.

I use phone every day at office so I don’t need to get the wallet out of my jacket when going to the canteen to buy lunch. It’s literally the reason I started using my phone to pay. Too many times I forgot my card…

A lot of external drives are just internal devices with another controller and casing around. I had a 4TB I used with my laptop, and tore apart the casing and just plugged it into my desktop when I built one. Unless you start hammering the external case around, the drive will be fine.

Pretty sure that site is satire, iirc with some right leaning bias but my memory is vague.

So it’s political ads, but at least fake politics :P

The simplicity of Google Photos has me still rolling with that.

But for all my music, syncthing is the best. In my case it’s synced to my phone though, and also backuped up from that to the cloud.

I’m in the MPC-HC gang on Windows. Just so much more practical than other players. The main selling point was that full-screen the controls go away once you move the cursor off them, it was amazing. And no waiting for subs to be processed like VLC had to back then, never turned back so don’t know if that is still a thing.

I got a Peugeot 208. It’s small, and ok in all aspects except the software. Typical bad car UI. It works with cabled Android Auto, so for long drives that’s more than fine. But touch screen is still old, and the app/site hasn’t let me log in for a few weeks now… So I can’t remote start heating.

But it’s a great car that I bought used, for driving to and from work. Looks good, yellow color, parking sensors and rear camera for my blind ass. But is also probably not available in America for all I know, I live in Europe.

Our company did a thing like this, focusing on the manager and above. They got password and authenticator codes out of them and admin access to the slack…

Good method to have users learn about critical thinking.

I love discord for small communities, not that I have that many I’m in though. But friend groups, and niche topics. Places where the chat generally is a single discussion or two at a single point in time. And the voice chat is superb. Just drop in and out is convenient.

But it sure as fuck doesn’t compete with what reddit and Lemmy is doing.

I would say, just see how much shit Hunter x Hunter can do in 100 episodes compared to One Piece. Maybe it’s just me but every time I tried one piece the first few episodes were to painfully slow. So I tried an abridged version but it didn’t have all the arcs done in order last I remember. Now both shows are different so it’s not exactly apples to apples but HxH manages to make each episode good on its own, and throws in a cliffhanger like ending each time to keep you going, especially during longer sequences.

If One Piece just drops all fillers, that too is good. But One Piece also does what Fairy tail does (well, I read at least 600 chapters of one piece manga for this view) and that is having arcs where 90% isn’t that important with sporadic information drops and then the big showdown. And the anime mimics that. Some detours are fine, but One Piece often feels like it’s filled with detours until the important characters manage to get their asses to the final showdown. And it’s why I eventually fell off the manga. I lost interest in going through so many chapters to get the meat of the arc.

Well. Assuming the cost of splitting water is lower than the energy produced from the same amount of hydrogen.

Been a while since I used the new thing, immediately hated it. All on mobile.

First of a, the bottom scroll thing on my phone to select a server or whatever it was just ain’t it. I didn’t use it much, but it seemed extremely annoying to move between dm and servers, especially if they weren’t the top ones. You can get lists and such by swiping.

Second was that server channels turned into a huge mess. Showing the last message makes absolutely no sense on any server I use. Especially on bigger game server like destiny group finding one’s already long lists turned into miles long lists. Absolutely unusable. I need things compact and clean personally, having the channels big and wide wastes so much space, and again long lists.

Being in a server hides any notifications and dms too.

Everything that was close at hand before is now far away. And that sucks for me.

It’s fairly common, you’ll see plenty of Tesla in Norway at least.

I could have ended up with Tesla if I could earn a car before Elon ruined his public persona. Now I’m definitely not getting one. But I do think anyone will get much negative feedback. I’d probably advice them to avoid one, but they are still better then it comes to software, most cars are shit at that.

I do hope a potential strike helps change their image more though.

I don’t have this issue, except once when I got my first desktop connected with wired internet. Turns out, yeah the wired internet (or the adapter/driver) can actually wake the computer… Turned it off and been mostly problem free from wakeups.
