Isn’t not wasting food the default? You don’t have to eat the same meal all the time for that, you just buy what you intend to prepare/eat before it goes bad.

I think the official client might be a webapp, but other clients on iOS are mostly native apps. Honestly, maybe it’s better on other platforms, but since my gf and I do most of our watching on iPads we don’t see the full picture.

Thank you for your suggestion. That seems like a very nice JF client, but unfortunately it’s Android-only, and we do most of our watching on iPads.

I will definitely try it on my Android TV though.

I’m not talking about naming schemes. The subtitles are detected, but they either crash the client or render improperly or just don’t show up despite being selected. I guess I’m really waiting for a decent multi-platform client that just works.

Both will happen.

🤞. Hopefully it’s just JF getting better, of course, but that last app redesign on Plex was really rough. I had to downgrade the app to make it work well again.

Of course I can put extra work into formatting my subtitles to make them work everywhere. Sometimes they are embedded, sometimes they are an .srt file next to the video file. And I don’t want to spend time normalizing all of them. It already just works all the time on Plex, so I’ll simply wait until JF fixes the support.

Currently my biggest complain with Jellyfin and the reason I can’t switch to it completely is the bad subtitle support. There’s a bunch of clients and some subtitles work on one, but not the other and vise versa. It’s annoying to jump clients depending on what you watch. Sometimes subtitles just don’t want to load by default and you have turn them on for each episode. And even though I have Bazaar, sometimes I still need to download subtitles, and Plex has that built-in.

Either way, I already have lifetime subscription, there’s no point in switching. At this point I’ll only switch if JF becomes better or Plex becomes worse.

I always do that Neo dodge, but we all know how that ended.

Mostly, people with friends.

Wtf is “whatnot”? How is it amongst such well-known stuff (except Instructure, too, I guess)?

I wasn’t talking about LAN but playing online on public servers. And I wasn’t saying it as a bad thing, just tempering expectations. Iirc, you have to patch the game, then create an account for the GameSpy replacement. There were some stability issues, too, but if you find a decent server it was ok.

But after all of that the main issue was, of course, lack of players.

Warhead was like Crysis 1.5, actually. But I have tried playing the original Crysis online a couple years ago and it’s possible. Not super convenient, but possible.

I’m pretty sure most regular users will not even notice the charge, and find it useful down the line. Cause one day they will mess something up, complain to MS that they “lost their work”, will be pointed to the cloud where everything was synced, and rejoice. Most users don’t really care about the implications that their documents are in the cloud.

Daddy and Napal Baji are even better songs, IMO. But like all PSY songs, are better experienced as MVs.

I’m aware of slash commands. If it’s a /sarcasm command, why would it be at the end of the statement?
What’s your source for this? I’m pretty sure “/s” means “end of sarcasm”, borrowed from XML/HTML.

Just fyi, the slash in /s or /sarcasm isn’t some weird bracket, it’s meant as an XML style closing tag, meaning “end of sarcasm”. In full it would look as follows:

<sarcasm>Things are going great!</sarcasm>

But people drop the opening tag and the <> for convenience.

Thanks for that etymology bit. I wonder why I never bothered to check, but it makes perfect sense, as I know Turkish.

And yeah, I should have used “sometimes” not “usually”. Pan fried shawarma is a thing, while döner isn’t, so depending on the way it’s prepared it may technically not be kebab.

Btw, kebab doesn’t need to involve any bread element whatsoever. In fact, in places that use the term natively, it usually isn’t. Kebab is just any grilled meat on a stick, and often is just the equivalent of BBQ.

Fun fact for you: All döner is kebab, but not all kebab is döner. Because döner is just a type of kebab (grilled meat on a stick). Which also means that shawarma’s status as kebab is questionable, as it’s usually sometimes roasted or pan fried, as far as I know.

Dang, you’re still posting? I haven’t seen these for months.
Probably because I rarely scroll below 100 upvotes on Top…

I saw list item 1 more as “I want my phone to last for 5+ years, so I will want to replace my battery eventually”, rather than “I wanna wreck my battery fast, so it better be replaceable”. Being wasteful with your battery like that goes against the spirit of Fairphone, IMO.

2.5 years isn’t that long to evaluate battery degradation IMO, and as you said, you mostly don’t even push your battery that hard. And the article even seems to imply that faster charging does impact battery life, it’s just that manufacturers consider 100w a sweet-spot between charging speed and battery degradation.
