I switched over to Emby a while back for video, but kept plex in a limited capacity for music since I really like Plexamp. The thing I really like about plex was that 99% of the time, it would scan and match up my…
Right? I came back just to comment on it... haven't even read the article. I got distracted by the shiny dangly thing and it took a little while to figure out it was a pull chain.

One is a toy. Created on a whim, it will end up in the bin with other toys. They might pick it up and paw at it later, stir up some memories, and then put it back. One is art. When completed, they can look at it and be…
The issue lies not with the individual billionaires, but the system that allowed them to thrive. They were allowed to exploit every resource they could without accountability. Eventually, they will be held to account.…
I wish we were still in the "haha funny" era of AI, and we could laugh at the absurdity it came up with. Fun times. One of my favorites: https://www.reddit.com/r/DC_Cinematic/comments/i3kr2z/humor_...
I have this as well, and all my kids seem to as well. Never knew that it was part of fighter pilot screening, that is interesting.
I would get that as well - I ended up at the urgent care a few times just because it was so painful and unsettling. It was never diagnosed but I'm pretty sure it was costochondritis - something in my sternum area was…
The best times were chilling out with my grandmother watching Roadrunner and other looney tunes. She always felt bad for the coyote... not in a root-for-the-bad-guy kind of way, but because it was always stacked against…
His character in Legend is a core childhood memory for me. Also his voice role as Hexxus in Fern Gully!
Holy crap that's my desk too, bought about 24 years ago. It's been a great desk. Gray frame with black work area/shelves. I guess at the time the name was funny too but I had forgotten it.
We could do all of that before the most recent datacenter build outs. Existing datacenters at the scale we were used to were just fine for what was expected of them.
As a kid in the early 90s, I remember staying up late to watch the news and there were specials about upcoming technology. I think it was close to the end of the year and they were going over what was in the works for…
Only if they grew up near a BBQ joint

Yes. That would the point of democracy, if ours wasn't in shambles.

Don't worry, it's all worth it so long as we can get braindead summaries we didn't ask for, pretend to be the 10x engineer we always wanted to be, and generate fake videos for internet points! (sarcastic rant over) Most…
I like those but am wary since it was reported to be prone to rollover when getting frisky with it. Was that much of a concern for you?
My favorite bike was an early aluminum framed Trek that I upgraded practically every part of myself. The bonded frame creaked but it rode great for thousands of miles. It got stolen and I haven't felt the same about…
I wonder how many sysadmin or adjacent careers that scene helped to foster. As a kid JP was a favorite of mine, and eventually I got into Linux as an older teen. That sequence cemented Unix as this mythical thing in my…
That would be nice! The ones I get stuck on are so obvious once the word is revealed that just a reshuffle of the letters would help. Maybe give the player 3 chances to re-scramble the letters.
I have a few containers at home and switched to podman, it was a pleasant surprise to see how how easy it was to drop it in as a replacement.
Yeah 9 times out of 10 I'd rather go to Popeyes. It is greasy but it's spiced well and I can't think of a single bland thing on their menu. I'll say though that the customer experience at Chick-fil-a is top notch, and…
Menu prices in the restaurant are ridiculous now. The only way I can stomach buying fast food is through deals on their apps, which I find very anti-consumer and predatory. It's also super annoying when you just want a…
