  • Enable Wireless debugging

    not everyone has wifi at home, and this doesn’t work without one. It’s also very complicated for people. it is basically a wall around a garden.

    also you either have to set adb over wifi to automatically turn on when connecting to that wifi, which is not that safe, or turn it on manually every time you want to install apps or updates. with that, the recent android feature to allow 3rd party stores to update their apps without a prompt goes out the window.





  • At a minimum I would want them to display in my gallery app (currently Nextcloud memories), display in a browser,

    there’s a new push to support JPEG-XL in Firefox. it got a labs toggle recently so you can enable it for yourself. I think chrome has done something too.

    and have native support at an OS level (i.e thumbnail previews). Neither format comes close to this.

    what OS do you use? KDE flavoured linux handles it fine. probably not KDE specific though.





  • LTO-8 is 12TB native per cartridge. A used LTO can be as little as $300 USD with a 12TB cart $65ish. Ancient LTO-3 can be had for like…$5…and stores upto 800GB per tape.

    how do you find so cheap LTO drives?

    how do I carry RF remote signal from each room back to main unit…oh, I don’t need to, could I make a web ui that controls the shuffler via a Pi to RS-232, that you access on your phone?..Shit…i could do this.

    you could also do an RF IR remote bridge with two minimal Pis










  • I mean… I don’t disagree but you’re arguing against somebody who is not here.

    I thought it was obvious. I was arguing with you, because it seemed you were sympathizing with the user that regularly deletes their post. I was arguing that the reasons given are not good reasons. also this is not a DM, others are reading it too. evidence is you got a downvote on this comment, and it was not me. and most people lurking rarely vote.

    a) Say they’re stupid and change nothing and continue to bitch about the problem or

    why, what can I change?

    apparently it was already fixed a year or two ago in a yet unreleased version of lemmy. so it seems a software change will not help in a reasonable amount of time.

    b) Understand why they’re doing what they do and try to address it.

    tried, and it makes not much sense to me. nobody is receiving live notifications from lemmy, or if they do, that’s because they use a niche client where they didn’t turn them off.

    but also… starting a discussion and then not wanting to participate, so dropping a bomb… that makes no sense.
