I graduated high school in 03, a few months/years into the “no child left behind” bullshit. The last week of school, meathead asks, out loud, “why do people read”.

Almost ten years later and that dude has never had a job longer than three months. This. This is why people read…

Edit: i had a friend in highschool who passed away a few years ago, so I only know his employment status from highschool, up to the funeral. Deleted Facebook soon after

“I can end it in a day”

Fair, don’t even try playing on anything but normal speed :/

I’ll throw in Oxygen Not Included.

I’ve heard rumors that they do play well together, but that’s people running it in docker with a “read-only” flag set for the content folder, with metadata saved in the config folder

I’ve used the Jellyfin app to listen to audio books, but for my purposes, it’s easier to run the separate client/server Audiobookshelf.

I remember playing Blue so much as a kid, I would hear the MIDI based music whenever I closed my eyes.

So glad we finally have the room on the carts for different music for each region/dungeon/route, but there something quaint about only having a half-dozen musical bits per game.

I’ve noticed lately that I have to tick a “I trust this app” check box and hit “Accept” in order for the password manager to auto-fill my timesheet app. Why add two extra clicks, with no ability to permanently say “I trust this fucking app, you bastards”…

Dang, I just realized I didn’t explain the setup well enough:

An old laptop runs the Jellyfin server, but the Pi runs the reverse proxy. For some reason, trying to use the reverse proxied address causes problems, but connecting directly to the laptop via IP address and port runs fine.

I tried a Jellyfin server with a pi 2 or 3 and it couldn’t serve more than one client at a time. So i imagine a zero wouldn’t even be able to load the app, much less serve anything :/

My main reason for running my DNS/ad block/nginx through the zero, sometimes the laptop goes down, freezes, or fails to clear the transcodes folder, so having that stuff separate keeps at least part of the network running.

If I trusted the battery tech more, I would use an old phone. But I’ve had one of those white plastic Mac books hooked up to power so long, the battery swelled out of its enclosure :/

Maybe there’s a way to disconnect the battery, or an app that switches off charging, so it drains enough to keep that from happening

Oh nice! I’d love to run an ad blocker/dns/reverse proxy on something with a little more beef than the Pi zero I’ve got now.

Jellyfin and or Pi zero does not like streaming through the video.local address I’ve got setup, so i have to use IP address to get anything without stuttering.

Damn, didn’t know he died. The headline should be:

Omega factor artist Tomoharu Saito lost a leg, and then his life, due to working on the game

“Just Jeeves it” doesn’t quite roll off the tongue…

Should’ve prayed harder.

“freedom of speech” means the government can’t arrest you for your views. It doesn’t mean the rest of us have to listen…

Same.

Bought a Blu-ray burner and “archive grade” disks for third location backups.

I made a list of files that is just a text document (3MB!) that sits on the root of the Blu-ray. There’s probably a better way of doing that, but it works for me.

I’m imagining an LA noir style section involving the lasso of truth (?). And i haven’t seen the movies, but watched reviews, and there seems there might need enough upgrade paths to ramp up the combat elements. Maybe she gets with Batman to upgrade her suit?

Hell, even a tomb raider style origin story might work, if they don’t skimp on the writing team.

Thanks, i just had it stuffed!

When i add a Bluetooth device to my phone, i use an emoji to show what type of device it is. 🖥️📱🎮🎧

I use the hearing aid emoji for earbuds: 🦻

When i had home assistant working, i used emojis to name all my devices, then when you sort by name, it groups the emojis together.

When I beat Grim Fandango.
