  • I have been out of the loop for over a decade, where do I begin?

  • Setting up Sonarr and Radar with docker isn't all that complex. If you set up Prowlarr as well then you can still get the instant search and download aspect you mention except you can search ALL the good websites at once and (most importantly for my stress level) avoid all the bullshit ads and malware you've got to worry about blocking while browsing those sites through the web. Sonarr is perfect for following any show, not just those you might binge watch. Topical shows like SNL and last week tonight get picked up automatically. Long term favorites with unpredictable release cycles (looking at you Doctor Who) get snapped up when they're most popular and download super fast. Cleaning up old seasons to clear out space is as simple as navigating a web page. Both radarr and sonarr can connect to other services like that.tv so less tech savvy household members can add a show or movie to their watchlist and it will automatically get added, searched, downloaded, and hosted without any extra interaction from me. You can even set up profiles so that certain lists meet quality standards, so for example the kids cartoons aren't downloaded at the same high a quality as the adult shows.

    My point is this, make the switch to automating the searching and downloading, not so that you can hoarde everything, but so that you can't stop spending as much time being the home video librarian and more time enjoying it. On more than one occasion I've been out with friends and somebody mentions a movie they liked, I've taken a minute to add it to my list, and the movie is ready and waiting on my Plex (and/or Jellyfin) before I get home.

  • [Question] Recipes for 12 egg YOLKS?

    Jump

  • Am I the fool for just going to the store and buying a carton of egg whites for this? I suppose it's possible the yolks got wasted anyway for the egg whites I bought in a carton.

  • Hurricane Katrina vs. Hurricane Helene

  • Worse is a hard metric to analyze when comparing 2 different storms. One may have higher winds. Another might dump more rain. Another might have brought a high storm surge to an area that couldn't handle it. Another might come in kinda mild and just stall, battering one area for a long time. One storm might do massively more damage if it hits Atlanta vs. Miami. I'll forgive people for getting a little hyperbolic when describing a storm that has personally impacted them. Storms may hit a broad region, but the impact of a storm is always hyper local.

  • I mean, that's fucked up and hilarious. I'm a dirty omnivore and those places are no more appetizing to me. Those cuts at the all you can eat Brazilian places SUCK.

    But surprisingly, when I want a predictable vegetable side while I'm traveling, I go to a steakhouse. Every other place seems to serve either microwaved bag veggies, fried bullshit, or something sad smothered in sauce. Go to a steakhouse and I can get a rare well seasoned aged filet and two steamed fresh vegetable sides plus a salad. The only reliable vegan places I've found are Indian, which isn't bad, but is often not really to my taste. Obviously I'm no vegan, but I think it's fair to say I love plant based foods even more as long as they're not fake meat, fake cheese, or overly spiced mush. In a meat centric region that's a hard palette to satisfy sometimes.

  • and medieval Masons built stuff without math. https://youtu.be/_ivqWN4L3zU?si=2N_iyZiBD8eDpltR

    That video shows that all of those ancient engineers relied heavy on math. What do think math is, if not all of the engineering principles laid out in that video?

  • Beware Hollywood’s digital demolition: it’s as if your favourite films and TV shows never existed

  • Don't blame Plex for that, they're just aggregating streams from other sources.

  • TIL about the reverse boustrophedon writing style used by the Easter island people

    Jump

  • There is a certain elegance to this kind of writing. I was surprised how easy it is to read. Maybe I have an advantage because I've always made it a little mental game to read mirrored text when I see it either in an actual mirror or from the wrong side of a clear pane of glass. The utility of the ox turn method seems to shine when the inscription is on a tablet that can be held and turned in one's hands.

  • Ford targets EV ‘fence-sitters’ with offer of free home charger and installation

    Jump

  • Further complicating matters for many Americans are HOAs, especially those with communal parking separated from the homes. Not only would I have to upgrade my panel, I'd have to pay to install a feed to my parking spaces. Thankfully for my region the law gives me the right to install this even if the HOA doesn't cooperate, but laws vary and some people will have a very uphill battle.

  • Why?

  • A word about systemd

    Jump

  • Then maybe you can tell me what "attempting to do more" means, because the author of the article certainly didn't. Or why that's bad. My only take away is that the author thinks the system should facilitate the running of applications and just get out of their way already. But that sounds a lot like building a road network and then failing to install traffic controls because the DOT should just stay out of the way of traffic.

  • Don’t ever hand your phone to the cops

    Jump

  • This is why I set up tasker to lockdown my phone under certain conditions, such as: getting disconnected from Bluetooth (like when my phone is separated from me and my watch, my headphones, or the car), getting disconnected from WiFi (like when it's taken from where it's supposed to be), getting a slight jolt from the accelerometer (like getting thrown to the ground or even just a swift tap). My phone may get locked down a bunch during day to day stuff, but at least I know it will lockdown automatically when it matters.

  • Mentioning anatomy isn't substantially different than photos of anatomy in a classroom setting unless you're a troll looking for a knit to pick.

  • Ok, the title comes from the linked article, but they aren't banned from "mentioning anatomy". They are banned from showing pictures of reproductive organs.

    How is that any better? Next your going to rationalize having no books in a literature class, showing no pictures of cells in a biology class, or having a trigonometry class without using the devil's radians.

    I don't know why some people seem compelled to ignore all context and rationalize state sponored religious persecution in the name of "protecting the children". It's not post-truth just because you've decided to willfully ignore all the context.

  • Yeah, they got the sudo placement inside out. You "sudo crontab -e" and put your commands there that need sudo, you don't sudo the individual commands in the regular user's crontab.

  • I know the Hogwarts Legacy game got a lot of hate from Rowling being a monster, but the game mechanics really let you optimize stealthing. I've snuck into many a goblin stronghold and just sneaky sneak murder-hobo'd like 20 or more of them, one at a time, looting the bodies before they even hit the floor. They even show the little ! icon. I feel like I'm playing Solid Snake goes to Hogwarts sometimes.
