Every… Tool… Song… Sounds… Like… This…

Because it’s “too hard” for websites to have proper relationships with advertisers vs just signing onto an ad network.

I’m pissed that even non-ev vehicles make it impossible/expensive to swap out the head unit for something you like.

Before I discovered tidal integration with Plex, I liked slacker (now live one). Maybe I’ll move back to that or pandora. Slacker is nice that you can build a radio station based on multiple artists or albums.

Tidal on AA crashes. The UI is generally garbage too. And I assume that when the integration goes away, so does the ability to use plexamp, even if selecting tidal as the library rather than my own that has tidal integrated. I’m not paying for something that not only doesn’t work the way that I want it to, but doesn’t work at all. Plexamp and local integration is the ONLY reason I even bother with Tidal in the first place. Bye Bye.

Not as easy to get everything as it is with TV/Movies, unfortunately. That’s the whole reason I jumped onto Tidal in the first place. It offered a far better service. Now it’s going away. I will definitely be voting with my wallet and letting them know why I’m cancelling though.

Rack mount server class machines at home generally aren’t great options. Definitely stick with tower/mini designs.

That said, for a home server a general workstation may be best. I personally have a System 76 Thelio. I added a second drive and installed proxmox with a ZFS mirrored pool.

Dunno if it is a viable new phone choice these days, but my op7 pro is still going strong with crdroid.

Self documenting systems ftw.

Or stop mucking about with toys and use protectli running opnsense.

I got tired of fighting with GPay on crdroid every other week. Got a card that works with my Garmin watch instead. No more nonsense.

I loved audacious and it was my xmms replacement. I don’t really use local media players these days as everything is on my plex server.

Meanwhile https://github.com/XMMS2 has been open source from the start.

How about putting all app data in storage0 so it can be easily backed up. The thing I care about most if my phone is stolen is being able to build a new one and not have to spend the next day reconfiguring every damned app.

The music industry figured it out. Now the video streaming industry needs to. Until then, arrrrrr.

If these fuckwits really wanted to ‘protect the children’ they’d have a .kids tld with regulation. Then parents and schools can choose to filter everything but that tld, or not.

A ton more fun once you flash rockbox onto it.

I mean, that’s what Ford did. They had the tech to generate power for the factory, so were the city’s electric company.

Nice coincidence I deleted my LinkedIn account today.

Huh. This is how I feel about LNPs who think they are doctors too. I think in most cases I’d prefer the ai.
