  • The worst part is when you go to a place you need to pay before service is rendered.

    If I go to the bagel shop and get a dozen I pay before I pick them out. TIP? Are you kidding me, what what, you have not served me yet.

    A tip is to reward good service at a sit down place. I still think it shouldn’t be and if we have it, it should be back to the 5-10% like most countries that have tipping.

    But if you ask for a tip before you render service i get a little angry.





  • I know I may come off bad with this question but I ran into it a while back and felt like a fool.

    What show were you trying to watch, and does that show come in UHD.

    When I had it I would stream to the TV so it may be different but not all shows and movies Netflix has comes in 4K.

    It may all not give you that option because the resolution of the M3 MacBook Air is 2560x1664 and not actually 4k (3840 x 2160) I understand the pixel density changes things but the native resolution is what I am referencing. Unfortunately Netflix is not going to stream a higher resolution than the display natively supports from my understanding. May not hurt to hit up support with Netflix to see they can do anything to get it to stream 4K. Maybe they’ll even refund your money.


  • We have Disney+ due to kids and nothing else. Did Netflix for a bit but eventually didn’t like the price and policy change.

    I had actually enjoyed it a lot since it wasn’t too $$ at first. The price increase and stupid lawsuits made me rethink. Still decided the shows we watched as a family were worth the price and convenience.

    However in the past week they started adding things that were only available with the espn and Hulu subscriptions. So now we are seeing tons of things we can’t watch.

    It’s now really pissing me off. So all the other shit bothered me but not to the point of canceling. This however is going to be the catalyst.




  • Since you are against using plex even with using it only locally I would suggest you look into the Jellyfin clients support. Specifically look at each client device documentation and take a look at what audio and video codex they natively support. If there is one they both support then I suggest you do some testing and stream a movie or show that is encoded with that specific format. This will let you know if it will work across both clients whether it’s a stream issue hardware issue or Wi-Fi issue.

    This will prevent transcoding that can cause audio sync issues.

    Edit - if that works then I suggest you convert you library to that format.


  • Your right. It was a little bit of a “what about”ism. If they did it then why shouldn’t I isn’t the best argument. I do agree that he is going back on his word and we should hold our leaders to a higher standard.

    I guess I get a little frustrated by most dems holding their leaders to a higher standard and then their leaders resigning for it. All while nothing comes of a Republican holding office and threatening people with violence and sexual assault.
