Doing these things with the OS window manager makes more sense than per application. This is just grouped windows from compiz over a decade ago. I wish we'd stop starting over.

Perhaps the problem is the swat teams doing this shit with zero verification.

Shocking Scale of New Trump Grift Is Revealed in c/news@lemmings.world

The only shocking thing is those with the power to stop it doing nothing. But that's not shocking either. The whole thing needs to burn.

White House East Wing debris dumped at nearby golf course has toxic metals, report says in c/news@lemmy.world

I'd rather toxic waste be dumped at a golf course than in wildlife habitat. Am I supposed to feel bad for these bougie assholes who already destroyed said habitat for their stupid game?

ICANN is Accepting Suggestions for new TLDs (for $227k) - what would you pick? in c/technology@lemmy.world

I believe more Tlds is generally stupid. But instead of all the protect the children bullshit, I'd be good with a .kids tld that requires certification to own. Then you can just whitelist that for your precious crotch goblins and leave the rest of us alone.

For camping out of signal range or Halloween I still rock a SanDisk sansa with a rockbox rom.

Except he can't do it alone. Our whole system of government is apparently just smoke and mirrors for the owner class to get their way.

God dammit. All the whining they do about needing donations to keep developing and this is what they come up with.

Boo hoo. Farmers are some of the biggest corporate welfare there is.

Trailers for movies and shows on Plex "Content is unavailable in your country" (sh.itjust.works)

See title. Trailers for my local content all play fine. If I want to play a trailer to see if interested in stuff on plex's own streaming service, I get that error.

The movie itself will play fine. The trailers will not.

My Plex server bypasses my pihole.

This is US. Comcast business class line with static IPs.

Happens on all of my clients. Phone. Shield. Onn Android TV.

I have a Plex pass.

WTF?

Tidal Replacement (sh.itjust.works)
 

Now that tidal integration is dead, a good option I've used before is livexone (formerly slacker). While i loved having everything in one place, I prefer not having to buy/rip or download the huge catalogs available elsewhere. And now that music seems to be going away in plex clients in the roadmap as well, i decided to find another solution sooner.

The ui isnt the best, but is far from the worst. How I use it:

  • star an artist to add them to your list of artists
  • then immediately also add that artist to each custom station you want them to be a part of
  • while playing your custom stations, use the dot menu to fine tune how much outside of the station can be pulled in. This, imo, is live's killer feature. Similar music is based on the whole list of artists in the station, not just a single artist.
  • grow your artists and playlists by browsing related.

In addition to this, livex also has genres, curated lists, new music lists, and podcasts.

It also has apps that do not suck on android auto and android tv.

I'm already not missing plexamp + tidal, so I wanted to share.

Tidal integration going away (sh.itjust.works)
 

This royally sucks for me. I like having my own local library integrated with Tidal.

Android Auto won't connect with screen off (sh.itjust.works)
 

I don't know if this is an android auto problem, or an android 14 (crdroid 10) problem. Wired usb connection. Have tried different cables with same effect. I did not have this problem before (Android 13). My phone has AA 10.9.634644.

If the phone is locked when connecting to the car, I get a connect/disconnect loop. This continues until I unlock the phone, and then things are fine after a few seconds, and I can then lock the phone again.

If I connect to the car with the phone unlocked until AA connects, and then lock the phone, everything is fine.

I have android auto configured to connect with the phone locked, and have disabled USB debugging.
