Good news, but that it went up so quickly in the first place is the problem. Same with the east wing, etc.

It's a "package manager" that has zero integrity checks built in. Web devs also love it. Nice combination.

Trump team looking to cut aid to college majors that don’t result in high paying jobs in c/news@lemmings.world

I didn't realize college is just a trade school.

Can I replace Lead-Acid batteries with LiFePo4 or equivalent in my UPS? in c/selfhosted@lemmy.world

Different charge controllers are needed. If the ups manual doesn't specifically support LiFePO4 the answer is no. You'd likely also need to configure it for that charge cycle if supported.

There's already a classification system. Here's a hint: resort bathrooms are not the proper place to store TS/SCI. Maybe start to get that and other opsec right like not using signal chats first?

It's been raining. Taking the kayak to the local class III creek. Did that yesterday too. Gotta play while there is water.

Lenovo LOQ 15AHP10 I just purchased for my son. Bought new in Australia and paid $1500 in c/pcmasterrace@lemmy.world
[–] knobbysideup@sh.itjust.works 2 points 1 week ago

I picked up a loq over black Friday sales last year for $800. Very happy with it. Linux mint. A separate account that runs steam when connected to the living room entertainment center.

When I skydived I always wanted to do a balloon jump but never had the opportunity.

Lots of aircraft I've never landed in though.

Has there ever been an industry that's been "enshittified" and then un-"enshittified"? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.world

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.

Delete unused instance accounts? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Is there a way to do this?
