I think they were highlighting a different fact, which is that simply 5 people, not the 0.1%, have almost as much as the bottom 50%.

5 way, unless he's just watching the girls. Which, like, if that's his thing and they're into it, works too!

For me Jellyfin's strength is that it can keep track of my wife's place in her shows independent from mine, and also that the metadata and watched state and progress is synced between phone, tablet, and TV.

This city is actually in Canada, and July 4th isn't important here. July 1st is, though, but it seems they wanted to close out the week I guess and change policy on a Monday?

Alright, hear me out: You're washing your strap-on in the kitchen sink, and it's prominently drying on the counter when you get stuck trying to get something out of the dishwasher!

It'd be madness if no one took advantage of this opportunity!

Poopin' that D!

Thinking about Graphene right now. If you've got time, I'd be curious to know if you've had any downsides, regrets, or drawbacks. It sounds like maybe this transit one, but in another comment it sounded like actually there's already a solution to that? Why don't you like that solution? I'm not criticizing you, I actually don't know what the solution is or what its drawbacks might be. Have you had any other issues with proprietary apps? As much as I don't use them for most things, I do use them sometimes when I have to.

Ooohhh, it's a zipper! That's what the last panel is!

I literally had a sheet of paper with me that I'd update as things were revealed, showing the relationships between people. It ended up looking like a conspiracy board. And for some people that probably sounds like homework, but for me it felt like I was exploring a ruin or something and was making a map of my discoveries. It made me more of a participant in the show, like I was actively watching for clues, rather than passively letting it wash over me.

It worked for me at the time.

It is imperative that the tree not be harmed.

I'm a native English speaker, and still every time I write something I read it back and expand every "it's" into "it is" or "it has" in my head, just to make sure. And replace every "its" with "his" or "hers".

It's even worse with on screen keyboards, because sometimes even if I typed it right, the autocorrect will "fix it", so I have to reread.

Wait wait wait, you're telling me all the money that was gained not fixing problems was short-sighted? You're telling me there's downsides?

Why haven't people been talking about this for 20 years!!!

 

Hey folks! I know a while back there was a kerfuffle because syncthing-fork for Android went dark, and then a new person showed up and claimed everything was cool and they'd been privately given the keys or something, and people were concerned. I pinned my fdroid version to the at-that-time-current release until we got clarity.

Well, it's been a while and I just noticed I'm still on that old release. So... how'd it turn out? Do we like the new person yet? Is there a promising fork y'all are using? Or is the project dead? I'm sure I could just go look at the repo, but I'm also sure the repo would tell me "yeah, we're all cool" no matter what, so I'm curious what the community feelings are. Have there even been any useful new releases since then?

Thanks!

 

Hey folks! Back in the PS2 days I had Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, and besides the quests and stuff I also loved just driving around and going on little road trips and stealing planes.

And then in the PS3 era I had Just Cause 2, and the voice acting was terrible, and the quests were kinda dumb, but wow was it fun to just drive around and go on little road trips and steal planes. And your dumb little hookshot was nearly immersion breaking it was so unrealistic, but instead it was a ton of fun zipping through the air from 150 paces to kick a dude off his motorbike...

Anyway, I'm wondering what people's opinions are on these kinds of games these days! I know Cyberpunk has some driving, but I don't know if people enjoy cruising in it. I really liked Breath of the Wild, which is not really the same but had some screwing around times. I know there's a GTA 5 which I never played but it's probably good, I think there's a Just Cause 3 but I haven't looked into it. Some people love Red Dead 2, which I mostly bounced off of but maybe I was wrong.

Do you folks have any favourites in this "genre"? Things I should check out? Stories of worthless hijinks? Thoughts?

 

Hello! I've just started using StreetComplete, and I want to make sure I understand the answers before I go through and make a bunch of garbage data.

In this picture, is the kerb a ramp, or flush?

The sidewalk deflects downwards, but it's not a ramp ramp like the example picture.

How about this one?

The kerb itself dips, but the sidewalk on this one looks more flat and does simply run into the road. And then it has the texture, obviously. Is this one different from the last one?

Also, just to check, I marked both of these sidewalks as "concrete". That's correct, right? I wondered about "concrete plate", because they're segmented, but the picture made concrete plate look much more substantial.

My other question was based on the "lit" tag for a bus stop. This bus stop has a street light near it, but there's no light on the bus stop itself. It sounds like that means it is lit? Would a non-lit stop just be one that is fully dark at night, then, with no kind of lighting anywhere near it at all?

This one is further from the street light, but still has line of sight. Lit?

Thanks very much for any help you have!

 

Hello folks! I have these switches in my bathroom.

The rightmost is the lights, and the middle one is the bathroom fan, and I'd like to replace that middle one with something I could load tasmota on (or some other open source firmware), without replacing the other switch, the sockets, or the faceplate.

I haven't seen any smart switches that have a form factor that would fit through this faceplate, though; they seem to mostly want to be the entire electrical box.

If it weren't for the electrical plugs I could maybe replace this with some kind of 2-gang thing, which isn't really what I want but could be fine, but as it stands I'm not sure what my options here are.

I don't need the new switch to necessarily look like the old one, I just want it to fit in the same box and use the same faceplate. Do you folks have any recommendations?
