Boink! Right into the pillar, again

I open the series folder from the mounted network share and watch it in VLC.

Similar, but I have a RPI by the TV running LibreELEC and Kodi.

The unstable part is just compared to other versions of Debian. Every now and then a package dependency breaks, but usually nothing serious and you can still use the system until it is fixed within hours. It is not like the system will constantly crash, it is still linux.

I have used sid for years without any major problems. Usually only on desktop though.

security none existsnt. Aws security tools used to scream at you every time you open the aws console. Solution at the company was to restrict views to those pages so (most) people don’t see the security/vuln reports. To get reports, you’d have to ask cybersec.

Not going to lie, that is hilarious. And forget red flags, you have a whole squadron of semaphores right there.

It should be doable to so some audio analysis of the episodes. They “always” (I am sure some forget every now and then), have an outro and intro around the ad block. With a clearly defined jingle per podcast. You should be able to make a program that analyses the audio and listens for that block and cuts it out for you.

Nice rack!

That exact same phrase is used in a very different context in other communities!

One problem with that use case is that you as the creator doesn’t control where (screen position) and how (font face, size, etc) the subtitles are rendered. The browser and user control that, so I doubt they would be widely used for meme because of this.

However, I do agree that it would be nice to have support for it for other reasons.

Personally I think mandatory voting is a bad idea. It will not make then suddenly care, they will just vote for lolrolfcopter party.

The US does a lot of bad things around voting, but it being on a workday is probably the biggest hurdle. Most other countries have it on a weekend or holiday. That means that most people can go vote and not have to chose between potentially getting fired and vote. Which, to no surprise mostly affects lower income voters.

Also combined with the witch hunt on mail in voting makes it very hard for lower income people to vote. Which is by design.

Yepp. Started using Debian around the Ham/Slink releases, haven’t found any reason to change yet.

Re-binding caps lock is such a nice thing. I am a Perl programmer (yes, really), though not in emacs (vim all the way!)

I changed caps locks to $ and @ with shift decades ago. Especially since in my native layout they are awkward to reach.

And then there are things like strcmp() that uses 0 as true. At least it is for a good reason, but still confusing.

Also the storage is the cost for the user, and google in the case of play store. So the developers have no incentive to reduce the size.

I just started skipping the first 1-2 pages of all ads, they usually just talk about what a fantastic company they are, etc. Just noise that no one is interested in, not even the ones lying about it.

At the end after all the fluff there is usually a description of what you are supposed to know and do. And if there isn’t, well I am not wasting my time with them.

Also, describing salary range seems very different in different countries

More often than not that is corporate speak for “we fired the old team and replaced them with cheaper workers. And we didn’t want to pay them to learn the old code/they tried but failed, so we are dumping features now”

I think the last two seasons were very much hit or miss. Some really good eps but also some really awful ones.

Eh, git is good but it is not like he invented source control. Before git there were subversion and before that CVS, along with a lot of others (mostly pay to use).

Git does some things really good and has become more or less the de-facto standard, it does other things not so good (like binary files). But it is not unique.

Good advice.

Also, work on your form and not to increase weights. So many are doing some weird sort of back swing exercise when doing curls for, example

Does this “Security Theater” actually scare away a would-be terrorist?

I very much doubt it. Also it would be a lot easier to just bribe/threaten/blackmail an airport employee to “forget” to lock a gate or similar and get anything you want in that way.

Nah, just don’t play the AAA bullshit. It is not worth your time to pirate

Yepp, and no one really listens to the others, just trying to remember what you did and make sure no one dumps more work on you.
