It needs more of the feature that makes it a networked player for the media I already have (which works great -- once a person gets to it), and less of the misfeature that is the sideshow also-ran ad-supported and rental live streaming and

It got stuck on desktop. It worked fine until it got to the point where it showed me how many tax dollars I contributed in 2025, and had a little popup fade in (and disappear again) that said "Swipe to continue" That was the end o

They do. But the things from that bakery are made as the product of a soulless megacorp. The process may occur in-store, but it is prescribed from on-high, not invented or tweaked locally. And bread from the Kroger bakery costs more to bu

Interestingly, the Nakamichi Dragon is/was a cassette deck that can do automatic azimuth adjustment on playback -- without having recorded tones to work with. In loose terms: It does this with a special read head that splits one of th

Perhaps. If it's free (libre) software, then it is shared freely. Others are free to take and use it. They can also change it; they don't have to accept it as it is. The existing code can be molded to be something different, or

There's a Kroger grocery store near my house. It's very convenient -- I'm near it almost every day I'm alive. They have all kinds of things there, including factory-made bread and factory-made eggs. There's also a

It's only complicated once, though -- at initial setup. And that setup part can be largely automated: https://github.com/pgj/freebsd-wifibox (The computer itself doesn't care much about the complexity. It&#x

Nobody rationally expects a detailed trip report in exchange for some tickets. But nobody wants to hear that they gave those tickets to their pimp, either.

At first, they had no plan. They tried to imprison their most competent person for being an outsider and being unable to pay their hospital bill at Carl's Jr, before making a public spectacle of working to kill him. They also consumed

Yeah, good point. I'll just forget about the fact that I'd spent thousands of dollars there over the course of decades, and they knew what I liked and would order inventory hoping that I'd buy it, and hold onto some of the tc

It's also important to remember that chargebacks aren't under our control. As cardholders, we can't issue them directly. All we can do is submit a dispute to the bank. The bank will then investigate (however they do that),

There are rich people who charter private jets instead of own them. Their personal whereabouts aren't being tracked in the air. (They get to skip the entirety of TSA screening for these charters, too.) But Flock tracks them on the gr

Eh, it's probably OK either way. People have been saying since day 1 that Raspberry Pis are not low-power devices and they're probably right. Everything is relative, though. In terms of maximums, a Pi 4 (for example) can use up

I like that idea. Belt and suspenders. Alerting on an unexpectedly high rate-of-change, as some others have suggested, also seems good for some workloads.

50% is probably unrealistic. Nobody really wants to diminish their storage by 50%. Let's set a fixed threshold -- 100GB, say -- and play out both methods. Method A: One or more ballast files are created, totalling 100GB. The machine

Indeed. I've been doing that for a quite a number of years now. I just put food waste and some other compostable stuff outside -- in a pile, on the ground. Currently, that pile is in a place where autumn leaves tend to gather natural

Here's one anecdotal datapoint: About a decade ago, I discovered that the HD 530 iGPU included with my budget-oriented i3-6300 CPU was better-performing than the physically-impressive SLI pair of 9800GTs I had been using, at something

Perhaps. To me, this present-day noise is indistinguishable from the pre-bot noise. It's the same noise, in that both things are just noise of that shape. "How beautiful!" "I really feel this one!" "I love

I've been in deader crowds than that with a live band on a stage: At least they didn't scatter. (I'll do it again, too.)

People were responding with period-correct, insipid “wow beautiful <emojis>” replies for decades before we had bots to do it. It was noise when it was only people; it's still just noise when it also includes bots.

It's not great in that way. The mastering -- if there is any -- is definitely kind of shit. But that's a relatively easy thing for a human with the right combination of toolchain, ears, and experience to fix. It tends to be a sl
