Yeah Netflix has to pay for edge connections in major ISPs, and host cash is in places.

Yeah that’s kind of the direction I was thinking. I really want to have access to the screen and the touch controls on the shows though. It’ll all come in time.

There’s another really wicked side project I saw running on pis. You put a Bluetooth enabled device in every room and it tracks where your items are. So you could ask where your keys aren’t to triangulate which room in your house they were in.

Filebot a piece of software, it looks up your files on TMDB and themoviedb and renamese your files based on those lookups. Plex takes that naming very very well. We really need jellyfin to work with it too.

I assume their motherboard is a write-off. The form factor in speaker are probably all we have to start with. For a few bucks you could turn it into a decent Bluetooth speaker. Want to get a little more intense if you want to do anything interesting like voice control.

I’d really like to find a way to drive the display and touch screen on the shows

How long till there’s a solid project to gut Alexa devices and run them from pis arduinos and pico’s?

I’m trying to switch to Jellyfin I really am. With Plex I could just throw a file bot at my files normalize the names and it was fine. I can’t mark things watched or unwatched from the Roku client. I’ve now tried three separate times to get the Doctor who specials to show up with names. Plex is by no means perfect but it’s so much easier to keep Plex goomed

Threw away the branding, threw away the user base, threw away the advertisers, throw away the staff.

What exactly does he have left?

Might be more life to serving just potatoes on St Pats from that perspective.

Unfortunately way too many companies and people.

It’s pretty easy to get in there and throw a couple of bots around. People have created entire help desk ticketing systems inside of it. They integrate payment systems. You don’t see any of this until you have a certain specific set of needs and then it’s everywhere.

There’s a lot of plug-in support for corporate apps and people that create themes for things for corporate.

Yeah that’s seriously like a super power, just reading names on social media feels so good

I started Russian Duolingo a while back. You can make English sentences that would take five or six words in two words under first impressions the language doesn’t f*** around it gets right to the point.

But then I started getting to conjugations and it turns into a dumpster fire real quick.

That’s how religion keeps power. Only our group are righteous and are doing it right.

They added in some anti-cheat stuff that doesn’t play well.

We’re close. We just need a couple of vendors to step up and take some responsibility.

Steam already picked up all the hard stuff.

Adobe products, Outlook, and of all fucking things Roblox.

I probably also really wouldn’t hurt if somebody could manage to make Nvidia background removal working OBS Linux.

Antivirus won’t do s*** for you, if a good exploit comes through they don’t need a virus they just do whatever they want. Even the best EDR packages out there have their limits if you don’t keep updates.

Why’d you pick me up?

Why’d you take me out of my house

and kill my parents with me? Ain’t you committed to me?

Where are we fuckin’ goin’?

Though Yolanda AKA Honey Bunny from Pulp Fiction it a close second.

Find a job where you’re never without something to do.

It is absolutely not necessarily… But the odds aren’t great.

So there are 43+ NixOS users and noone switched away for another OS?

Woot!

I keep pondering switching back to Debbie and every time I get in a fight with … well everything I try to install … And I look at my configuration.nix and sunk cost fallacy sits in.

I don’t really need Splashtop, NinjaRMM, Parsec Server right?

Hold on, let them check their bank accounts first.
