  • TIL there are multiple episodes of Caillou where his behavior was so awful that PBS Kids banned them from being re-aired.

    Jump

  • If it's an official decree, then it must be in writing somewhere. The fanwiki is very short on references. One could assume it's all speculation. Probably just self-censureship rather than a ban.

  • Chosing not to air is not the same as a ban.

  • *arr language settings

    Jump

  • I feel your pain. It seems these apps have been built by monolinguists, and the language preference/requirement you mentioned are more of an afterthought than, for example, quality/resolution preferences.

    For subtitles, at least, a bilingual family needs to have two separate instances of bazaar.

    Of course, that's less than ideal when you start talking about two entire video files when all you want is an additional audio stream.

    I'll be checking back here hoping you'll find a solution.

  • People under 25, how many of you are aware that you can get 1080p HD TV programming (and many live sports) for free over the air with no app sign-in or susbscription fee?

    Jump

  • Ditto. We went from having five channels, one snowy on a bad day, plus a bonus 6th channel when the stars aligned, to two channels at best.

    The broadcasters and regulators took a basic fact about digital signals "We can get a better quality signal with less transmission power" and saw it as a challenge to set up their digital transmitters with the most conservative estimate of minimum power required. I haven't studied well enough for my amateur radio exam to know if I'm comparing apples to oranges, but I'm still shocked to see descriptions of transmitter power go from 100kW in one case to below 20kW.

  • 17 subtitle languages, none of them the one I'm looking for

  • Too bad Hindi isn't listed. I've found many a "Hearing Impaired" subtitle stream listed as such.

  • clergy must obey civil reporting requirements where they live, and that their obligation to report to the church in no way interferes with that.

  • I don't understand what's wholesome about a single household needing to pay for multiple accounts to simultaneously stream, but all the more power to you.

  • Probably people who have heard of these scientists being recently credited for their work.

    The phrase "all the credit" is a bit sensationalist, and it's too easy to poke holes in, although I do concede that "Most of the credit" is vague and "All of the Nobel Prize recognition and prize money / peer accolades" is a bit too wordy.

    It's important that we don't weaken the cause by easily disprovable exaggeration. These scientists did not get nearly enough credit; true.

  • What comes to mind?

    Jump

  • They all have their quirks, but until airsonic-advanced catches up with the latest opensubsonic API, I've been trying out Audinaut, DSub, and Ultrasonic. I had to reorganize my whole library, though.

    I'm not a fan of these album-based apps. most of my music falls under "Various Artists". As such, I've been playing around with Musicbrainz Picard to try different tagging in an attempt to try to find something that works across both at the server and client end.

    Subsonic doesn't work for me, I'm guessing because it refuses to fall back to earlier versions of their API. I could be wrong.

  • There are many examples of this, but one that comes immediately to mind is the evolution of my favourite LDAP-enabled music player, airsonic-advanced

    Subsonic begat libresonic

    Libresonic begat airsonic as well as a whole bunch of other projects.

    Airsonic begat airsonic-advanced

    Airsonic-advanced begat kagemomiji/airsonic-advanced, however the maintainer of the parent codebase, randomnicode, wants to do the right thing and get their code up to snuff with the opensubsonic API (not sure where that fits in to thr history) so kagemomji can take over.
