Fuck people who didn't vote over that. Like it or not, we have a two party system, and not voting was a vote for the current state of affairs.

I'm too lazy to be problematic, so yeah. Never doing laundry would be nice. Wear once. Recycle.

Here's an idea. Take out the pieces that inflate costs, provide no actual healthcare, and make ridiculous profits.

Borg for files. Proxmox snapshots for the VMs.

Tired of it being everybody else's job to "protect the children" rather than their parents.

Yes they did.

Is the era of body positivity over? Some experts worry about a return of ‘thinness’ as the norm in c/[email protected]

Body positivity used to be about actual disabilities or skin conditions out of a person's control. Then obese "healthy at every size" fuckwits hijacked the term.

Tidal Replacement (self.plex)
 

Now that tidal integration is dead, a good option I've used before is livexone (formerly slacker). While i loved having everything in one place, I prefer not having to buy/rip or download the huge catalogs available elsewhere. And now that music seems to be going away in plex clients in the roadmap as well, i decided to find another solution sooner.

The ui isnt the best, but is far from the worst. How I use it:

  • star an artist to add them to your list of artists
  • then immediately also add that artist to each custom station you want them to be a part of
  • while playing your custom stations, use the dot menu to fine tune how much outside of the station can be pulled in. This, imo, is live's killer feature. Similar music is based on the whole list of artists in the station, not just a single artist.
  • grow your artists and playlists by browsing related.

In addition to this, livex also has genres, curated lists, new music lists, and podcasts.

It also has apps that do not suck on android auto and android tv.

I'm already not missing plexamp + tidal, so I wanted to share.

Shout out to rclone (self.linuxadmin)

I needed to move a lot of stuff from dropbox to an AWS EFS today. The dbxcli tool does not do full directories, nor does it differentiate files from directories. Its 'ls' output is far from ideal for machine parsing as well.

I had resigned myself to spending most of my day writing something to parse and download recursively.

Then I stumbled on the fact that rclone supports dropbox as a remote. Hallelujah!!! Within minutes I was cloning things from dropbox to my EFS.

I will definitely keep this in mind the next time I am tasked to move things from a transfer-hostile cloud system.

Tidal integration going away (sh.itjust.works)
 

This royally sucks for me. I like having my own local library integrated with Tidal.

Android Auto won't connect with screen off (self.android)
 

I don't know if this is an android auto problem, or an android 14 (crdroid 10) problem. Wired usb connection. Have tried different cables with same effect. I did not have this problem before (Android 13). My phone has AA 10.9.634644.

If the phone is locked when connecting to the car, I get a connect/disconnect loop. This continues until I unlock the phone, and then things are fine after a few seconds, and I can then lock the phone again.

If I connect to the car with the phone unlocked until AA connects, and then lock the phone, everything is fine.

I have android auto configured to connect with the phone locked, and have disabled USB debugging.
