I’ve been using deemix, and for the most part it’s been pretty seamless. Stuff direct downloads instantly, but it’s all in 128kbps now unfortunately. Then I have lidarr monitor everything for a lossless version.

You should check out Plexamp while you bridge the gap. It has tidal support built in, and you can self-host your own collection as you build it up. Then when you’re done with tidal, you don’t have to learn or download a new app.

Thanks! It was a Python backend that the data science team at UCAR built and a Vue.js front end.

Damn that’s crazy. When I was just out of college I built the touchscreen web app that promoted this thing in the lobby of UCAR. Looks like it’s still running for now: https://hpctv.ucar.edu

The author obviously thought the value was worth it when he made the purchase. Now he’s sad that others think it’s worth less than he paid? So for him the perceived value of his purchase is based on what other people think, which is pretty sad. Then he does this self-depreciating write up about the experience, calling himself a fool.

Spend your money how you want, but don’t let other people’s opinions determine how you feel about it. You’ll get no sympathy from me, bud.

What an incoherent mess of an article.

Lucky - I’m just browsing on my generic-brand hypercube.

Aren’t they all still WebKit under the hood though? Until they allow other web engines this is still just the illusion of choice.

I’d rather give the ad revenue dollars to a small, independent company like Plex over a media giant like ViacomCBS if the content is similar. Just my 2¢.

has tons of free tv-like channels with a slew of content. Plus you can self-host your own media on there for free too if you that’s your thing.

Caravaggio - an absolute master of contrast and light. He manages to balance a painterly hand with realism in such a pleasing way. I’ve had the pleasure of seeing some of his works in person, and they’re all just so impossibly smooth and polished.

Apple repairs all hardware for 5 years after the last day they officially sell the hardware.

The oldest phone that still runs the newest version of iOS was released in 2018, so frankly I’m not sure what you’re talking about.

As nitefox said already, you can start the steam deck on desktop mode and it’s already running Linux with KDE. My first thought when I read your post was also that Steam Deck could be exactly what you need. Plus they just refreshed it with better thermals, battery life, and display. A usb c dock would get you a pretty decent dev machine on a budget. Plus it’s great for retro gaming.

whoami

Rockstar should absolutely just hire this kid as a whitehat instead.

You’re not wrong. According to the current scientific understanding of the universe, that’s exactly what it is. They just gave it a badass name.

And you don’t have to pay to remove ads because there are none. I have 2 Kobos and I love them

I did read it - what I meant is that I think the author of the article was mistaken.

The view-state sync feature and all the social stuff is def opt-in though. Of course they made it super easy to do the opt-in, they want to push that feature, but I remember I did have to actively choose both of those things after the update.

Obviously I don’t really want my “friends” getting weekly emails about what I’m watching, but I don’t know — If I were self-hosting my own porn, maybe I’d take 5 extra seconds to read the screen that says stuff about sharing activity.
