Every bourbon I’ve tried just tastes like corn flakes to me

If I’m ever in Scotland I might just take a bite out of the ground to see if I like it

Gimme a nice peaty Laphroaig. Something that tastes like a tire fire on a football pitch

(Though he’s probably responsible for an equal amount of wasted bourbon and whiskey)

Humans are filthy, disgusting, germ ridden animals.

Makes sense. I’m fully dockerized so I’ve got that going for me

Plex stores its metadata in a special folder, and I’ve got the *arr stack managing the actual media files, so I think I can run them in parallel.

Looks like I’ve got a project for the weekend! Jebediah’s just gonna have to wait to go to Jool.

This might be what it takes to at least get me to install it.

Do they live well together with the same shared media library?

Also, are there audiobook clients for Jellyfin?

It’s just fun that it’s happening here. Feels like the platform is maturing.

Sadly yes

One feature I liked about Kbin was that my own comments weren’t upvoted automatically

Yep! Now you’ve got me all excited for them to return this April. :)

I learned to trust the birds for rain forecasts. Not only will they all land a few minutes before the rain starts, but some species have unique calls for when it’s going to rain.

The catbirds who live in my rhododendron make this beautiful call that sounds like drops falling into water before it rains.

I’m also from that era of the Internet and you’re so right about smaller communities being better. One great example was Wil Wheaton’s phpBB forum. Probably a hundred active users including Wil and we all got along and more or less policed ourselves.

(Plus I helped him out with some car trouble. Let me repeat that: I helped Wesley Crusher with an engineering problem. One of my proudest moments.)

One of the interesting decisions that they do is that rulebreaking posts are rarely ever deleted. If a person is probated (temp ban) or banned, their comment stays up with a “(User was Probated/Banned for this post)” edited into the post so you can see, and hopefully learn, from the bad behavior. In addition, there’s a ‘Wall of Shame’ section where you can see everyone who’s been actioned against, who the moderator was and the moderation reason.

That’s a really great feature.

Okay, that makes more sense. Though the amount of trouble I’ve heard Linux folks have with Nvidia stuff shouldn’t mean that it’s not Linux. Just that Nvidia sucks.

Also, Vulkan seems to have a ton of support for Apple Silicon.

And finally, Mac OS has been certified Unix 03 since 2009 except for version 10.7

Are Linux users really working in the kernel all that much? I’ve been doing support for Linux sysadmins for a decade and not once have I needed to touch the kernel.

Based on some of their arguments it feels like they’ve never actually used a Mac. “It’s for babies and old people” they cry, like there’s not an entire Unix system under the hood.

My car has standard bulbs but with lenses that pivot to achieve the same effect, but I’m dreading the day that one of the servos breaks and my car starts looking like Forest Whitaker

Enhancing your productivity without an increase in your wage is just bending over even more for the people stealing your labor value.

If you do get more efficient be sure to take longer breaks to offset it.
