It’s definitely not as lightweight, but as I rely on subtitles a lot I have to run most stuff through Kodi unfortunately. I find it to work quite well though with the Jellyfin add-on. I don’t know if it’s because the development of Jellyfin is mostly done in the US, who often dislike subtitles, but this has been an ongoing issue for years at this point.

Hopefully people can now stop jumping to conclusions and raging over nothing, but I doubt it.

I’d recommend running Jellyfin server but using Kodi as your frontend, best of both worlds, especially if you use subtitles as subtitles still work really poorly on Jellyfin

The article points out that the problem exists in a literature class, where well, you’re expected to be able to read a complete book in some week in order to analyze it. That’s literally the course.

A reminder that Opera is owned by a Chinese public company. I wouldn’t trust the browser for privacy reasons.

Never heard of this. Cool to hear of an open-source voxelbased sandbox game

Yes, fair. I was just attracted by the no-hassle method of Tailscale.

Probably why this isn’t enabled in the EU. GDPR wouldn’t have allowed it.

I’d willingly want to move down to 4-day weeks in some year even with the reduced salary. I’m privileged enough to afford it, and the time regained is absolutely worth the loss in salary and future pension. I’d like alternating Mondays and Fridays, so every 2 weeks you get a 4-day weekend.

I’m just waiting for some FOSS purist to find fault in this.

I don’t know if this is a US thing. I have no large expectations of HR, but I’m also part of a union and like most places my company has signed a collective union agreement. If there’s a conflict the union will represent you as well. The HR people at my company seem completely OK though, I have dealings with them due to my role.

The answers in this thread are all over, but it’s towards this direction I’m leaning

I think it’s been proven that Google doesn’t listen in to your conversations. While there are a lot of real privacy issues, the microphone theory is just conspiracy fear-mongering

I’d wager he means something like the fediverse, reddit, various microblogging sites. There are plenty sharing experiences working for Google, Apple and what not.

I saw a comment expressing this ruling is only applicable to e-books where there already exists an e-book from the publisher, and that it won’t affect media preservation or books that have been scanned (e.g., old textbooks) and that do not have an e-book. Is this true? If so, it’s not all bad.

It’s generally really hard if you have no experience. But if you’re willing to pay, maybe. Check this out: https://hitchwiki.org/en/Hitchhiking_a_boat

And wasn’t that what we were promised by capitalism? That we could own our land, our homes and our lives. But even that, they’re turning back on, except for the privileged few. Back to feudalism it is.

Chick-fil-a starting a streaming service sounds like the worst idea ever.

For sure. And Libreoffice doesn’t constantly try to make you save your documents in OneDrive…

This is an interesting point as well. Before, if you weren’t happy with an update or whatnot, you could just keep running the older version. But nowadays that’s impossible in many cases.
