Yes, but of that many people are already paying and they are still burning through billions, it's even more of a bubble than I thought. The chance of.profitability with direct to consumer is less likely.

So clearly it will be mainly corporate and enshittified versions going forward.

I thought he doesn't own any of them. Just leases his name.

Radiohead - in rainbows

They tried to go outside the existing studio release system before the rise of streaming. It was a pay what you want release.

Nirvana - unplugged in new York

Took a backlash to overproduced music at the time and started a still going strong tradition of publishing live albums.

Air - moon safari

Took electronic music and added a soul with otherworldly sounds and production to make chill out music that could be played in a club or on the beach or in a park with friends.

Dusty Springfield - Dusty in memphis Dusty brought back music to white people. There is a long tradition of white artists taking black music and presenting it palatably to white audiences. From elvis to P!nk. however, the UK as a more melting pot society without segregation, doesn't see it as cultural appropriation, but just another style for anyone to sing. That tradition continues with Amy winehouse and adele today.

I'm surprised so many people were paying for it. Seems like more people want less ai not more these days.

I found the set up only ok.ninthought some of the character introductions stepped too much into cliché. The part about the merging of worlds with music didn't really go anywhere apart from showing different music cultures through the years in the dancing montage.

Michael b Jordan wasn't awful, but the part was no different to any horror movie lead where the hero is an antihero.

I like horror movies. I like movies with a historical southern flair. I like music. As, you say, it seemed mashed together rather than coherent and unique. I also loved scream, but I'd be shocked if it was up for an Oscar for best picture.

I found sinners disappointing. It was fun horror movie stuff done well, but I expected more given all the buzz and reviews. I felt the same about the black panther films, so maybe I’m just not a Ryan cooler, or Michael b Jordan fan. Perhaps it’s the racism subtleties I miss, as a non American. It didn’t seem subtle, though.

Does that count? Or is the family home still the primary place of residence?

Solar plus battery is much cheaper than nuclear. And it adds immediately. Nuclear takes years and doesn’t come online til the project is finished. Solar comes online incrementally and can be anywhere.

Impacted teeth can get infected which is painful. Being impacted does not always cause problems. Wisdom teeth that come through normally can also cause problems and get infected and need removal.

Most people need them out, but not all. Too early to tell here.

Google takeout for Google Photos. If you have the space, add it to drive for downloading as the links expire if you request it for download instead. Choose the largest file size as otherwise it’s a pain to download. Be aware the meta data is not useful. If you are going to use Immich, Immich-go can help import direct from the zip files you creat.

Not all wisdom teeth need to be removed. Thes ones are still growing. The second molars roots are still growing too, so this is likely a young teen.

In much the same way that the west did not protect Ukraine despite them voluntarily giving up their nukes. Iran likely sees that and makes it even more desirable to have nukes. Whether they are actively developing them, or that’s a pretext for an invasion that’s once again about oil is yet to be seen.

 

When I go to a post with video media, on iPad, there doesn't seem to be a way to exit. For images, they can be swiped away or touch outside to exit. For videos, ice tried different gestures and there is no back button or X.

I use Android daily, with a back swipe gesture, but there is no such gesture I'm aware of on iPad. Does anyone know how or should I submit a bug or feature request?

 

I’m trying to set containers for some websites on a shared windows terminal with multiple users under the same login. We use some cloud software and each user has their own log in. Manually opening websites in container manager allows this, but I’m struggling to do so for opening in container for the home page.

Each log in just launches in the default container (unassigned). I’ve tried using bookmark tree, which seems to support containers, but I can’t get it to work. Assigning a site to always open in a container doesn’t seem to work either as it’s the same site for multiple users (which seems to be the purpose of multi account container), so if it always opens in container A, person B still needs to manually open in their container.

 

I just recently got the 190 update pushed. It mentioned lots of fixes. One was image handling.

I have found that now exiting an image is a bit slow or glitchy. A single gesture to go back does not exit and instead it needs two. Tapping an image instead still closes it but there is a delay that wasnt there before.

I'm on a pixel 7pro with gesture navigation.

 

My phone coverage stopped for a period. I was using connect at the time and a comment failed. I initially thought it was a big but noted after restarting, it still was out. Then I checked with a test search to find it was all internet.

A few minutes later internet was back. Went back into Lemmy and refreshed. No data showing. I checked down-for-me for my instance and it was up. Refreshed again. No data.

Again restarted app and it was fine then. So, it seems he connection outage did not allow refresh after it came back, despite a restart during the outage.
