I’m not the most financially savvy person, but I’m wondering if they’ll pass based on fiduciary duty rules. It would be pretty tough to prove violation for something like this, but the question is whether or not they even want to open themselves up to the possibility. I guess it depends on how close they think the bubble is to bursting and if they think they can justify the risk with potential earnings

To be fair, the city itself hasn’t done much to encourage people to stick around. There’s lots of stuff to do here, especially if you’re just visiting, but I’ve not seen any real push to advertise anything

The wife and I just finished Brockmire. Honestly, I didn’t have much faith in the show premise (drug-and-booze-fueled misadventures of a washed up baseball announcer), and the last season was weird, but it was a surprisingly entertaining show if you just roll with it and don’t expect award-winning plot development. It was kind of like if Ted Lasso had been written by a 22 year old manchild. That said, the characters were fun, showed some growth, and even tackled a difficult issue or two, even if there wasn’t a ton of depth.

You can just keep stringing the additional terms that you want excluded. I’m sure there’s some limit but you probably won’t hit it

Edit: apparently either lemmy or boost doesn’t like percent signs. Or URL encoding for that matter. The first part should be (percent character)s, and the plus signs should be (percent character)20. Though the + will probably work as-is depending on how your browser does things

For a truly low-attention game, I suggest ProgressQuest. As a bonus, it runs great on Linux, too!

publishing children’s books is hard even if they’re not controversial, so, no that won’t be happening.

The absolute glut of ai slop books on Amazon would seem to indicate otherwise

Oh man, I hadn’t thought about Dragon’s Egg in years - thanks for the nostalgia bump

Yeah but even when you do that, the shuffle is still garbage. What i think is happening is that they’re loading the first X entries in the Playlist and passing that to the (bad) shuffle algorithm instead of passing the whole Playlist first. Then when it gets towards the end of X, it does the same thing with the next chunk. I can’t imagine that it saves that much money but it tracks with both what I see and the general trends of enshitification

Spotify shuffle has been awful for a very long time. I’ve had the same experience more times than I can count (shuffling the Playlist gives you the same order for the first 10-20 songs). I’ve also noticed in my case that if I have a very long Playlist (like 300+ songs), I never hear anything but the same 70 or so. I have my theories but I can’t prove anything

You specifically referenced the media pack, which in win 11 looks like it’s packaged as a pseudo Windows Store application. You also said Windows N, which is a different case (and the reason you even need it in the first place). I get the EU/GDPR thing, and yeah it’s probably a pain, but you said “doesn’t offer offline installers for anything relate to Windows 11 anymore”, without qualifying that is your specific niche case. Have you tried K-Lite? Do kids even use that anymore?

That’s a whole different story…UWP apps offline for an EU build is a “best of luck to you, pal” thing

I’m as anti-M$ as anyone, but this just isn’t true. The windows update catalog still exists for offline patches

The biggest thing to remember here is that sending FROM your linux.com vanity address probably won’t work well. Yes, you absolutely can set your “mail from:” address to anything you want, but without corresponding SPF or DKIM records in the linux.com DNS server (which you can’t control and they won’t do), most major email providers will either send your messages to spam or outright reject them.

As another KC resident, I’ll second this sentiment… there is nothing happening here worth the risk

Maybe? I guess it depends on which of his handlers wins out. Greenland is big in what’s left of his mind, and he’s got a warm fuzzy feeling right now towards Venezuela.

I could see an argument that it’s a very small price to pay to get Trumpkin to leave your country the fuck alone, though. I’m not super spun up on the topic, but if I could get the eye of Sauron off of me by giving a toddler a shiny medal and a piece of paper, I’d jump on that in a second

Doing the Lord’s work. BrightScript seems to exist only as a way to torment those of lesser constitution.

Looks like when you’re in a “mixed Playlist”, whatever that means, the shuffle and loop buttons are removed from the interface of the audio player (AudioPlayerView.bs:148-159). I’m not sure why that is, but it seems like it’s deliberate.

One of the most iconic bbq joints in one of the biggest bbq towns (Joe’s KC, formerly known as Oklahoma Joe’s) started in the back of a gas station and it’s still there today

Ya - or close enough (10.11.3). My LAN networks are my server and workstation subnets (both /24s) and my external NAT (my public ip). I also have my reverse proxy address (from jellyfin’s perspective) in my known proxies. From there, my external users are set to allow remote connections, have passwords set, and are set to “hide this user from login screens” and my internal users are set to NOT allow remote connections and to NOT hide from login screens. After that, i just use my public dns for every device whether it’s internal or external and call it a day
