Do people really have issues with HDR? I calibrated my TV once when I bought it and it's been incredible since.

rizoid , 27 days ago

I use Linux daily but honestly I don't game on it and I watch movies on my proper hdr10+ dolby display so HDR on Linux was never even a thought in my head.

Would this affect PorkBun if it were to be implemented?

Damn it man. I want arm laptops to be good. I can't justify buying anything apple even with Asahi as good as it is now.

Did you set up recurring searches for new episodes? Idk what it is set to be default but you have to set each show to do episode searches at a given interval.

Yeah but have you tried actually playing the PS4 version on a PS5. It hurts to look at that frame rate.

Personally I have no foxes for you, but these are issues I've never seen myself. Perhaps there's simply something wrong with your install and a clean reinstall would fix things.

I have the same configuration running on all my devices, my kids and my wife's too, it's wonderful.

I'm one of the crazy people who spent 4 grand on a 85 inch dumb display meant for stores to use as digital signage. Honestly a great decision. It's no home theater display but damn if it isn't just as good as any smart tv I've seen. I just have it hooked to a raspberry pi running librelec.

That was kinda the idea. We just moved and I wanted to get something set up that I wouldn't have to worry about for at least a decade.

I've got a wife and a kid and I will say that I live in butt-fuck nowhere where everything is cheaper than anywhere else, however groceries are still getting way too expensive.

I personally use fluent reader on my PC and phone. It's the best one I've found so far.

Gnome. I'm a Mac refugee from a decade ago. I've been using gnome with dash2dock and dash2panel together to make a sudo Mac os.

Lol yeah I'm dumb and tired

I truly don't have a problem with ads being in a free service. My anger will be based on how annoying they are when they roll out.

Nextcloud is technically a solid product if your goal is to replace all the Google services. Personally I think it's too heavy and I've had issues with using it vs using specialized apps for each service I'm replacing.

Stop blaming devs and start blaming the corporate asshats that run the companies.

rizoid , 2 months ago

Here to say Seafile. I also don't like nextcloud. I used pydio cells for a while but the windows sync client absolutely never worked for me. Seafile has been flawless for 2 months for me.

I'll give a kidney for AMD ARM laptops.

AntennaPod is great and Audiobookshelf is my preferred app, if you're into self hosting services.

The epub reader needs work imo, however it's more than usable and its what I use myself. Once the reader gets a few qol updates I'll always recommend it over Cal-web or kavita.

I've got an order out for a digital signage display to replace my living room tv. It was more than I would've spent on a "smart" tv but it's a dumb box that I can plug anything I want into. If they sold dumb TV's still I'd probably upgrade some of the other TV's my family has, but fuck smart TV's.

Sharp NEC is the brand I bought from. They have models you can put a raspberry pi directly inside of it. I've got a pi with librelec waiting for the screen to show up. However they're really expensive. Sceptre makes more affordable dumb TV's but they don't make very large ones.

rizoid , 2 months ago

The 85 inch display I've got coming is listed as 4k HDR with full array local dimming. As far as actual accuracy is concerned, I've heard good things about Sharp NEC specifically but I won't know until my unit eventually arrives.

Docker is a great choice with lots of good tutorials. I personally use podman since all my servers are now running Fedora server and podman is installed by default.

I use Firefox cause it's easier to get people to switch to something that's already in every app store.

My in-laws have all Roku tvs. I had to go over and "fix" the TV's for them cause they didn't understand what the hell this was. I straight up just gave them my modded Nvidia shields and bought myself some more. Fuck that shit. We need a better open source tv like interface. I've used plasma big screen but it's not ready for normal people with not Linux but fixing experience.

rizoid , 2 months ago

Maybe modded is the wrong word. They're rooted with a different launcher and my pihole does it's best to block telemetry. Getting rid of the Google launcher with ads on it is a major improvement.

I'm putting together a parts list for a new living room set up. We're getting a giant digital signage display and connecting it to my htpc.

Shame. I remember when they were one of my favorite tech sites.

I moved to Antennapod then ended up using Audiobookshelf since I was already hosting it for my wife's audiobooks.

rizoid , 3 months ago

So for antennapod I used gpodder Sync. It's not really ideal imo but hosting audiobookshelf has been perfect for me. It's all on the server so no matter what device I'm on, everything is the same.

In my personal experience the jellyfin clients just aren't as good. I play my whole jellyfin library through Kodi and everything direct plays without issue.

The sad part is, a few years ago I gladly paid for the Disney Hulu bundle along with HBO. Now it's all gone to shit and they never even improved the Disney Plus app. My subscription payments are long gone and I'm better off for it.

rizoid , 3 months ago

Ok but actually what does this do?

rizoid , 3 months ago

This is the main reason why I buy the a series pixel phones. Generally they are smaller. Not small enough IMO, but smaller than the major flagships for sure.

I'm using a 6a. I used graphene for like a week but didn't like it. The only downside I have is no wireless charging. I'll be getting an 8a as soon as it comes out for that reason. My wife is using a 7a and I'd say it's perfect.

Support for ebooks is honestly pretty good. The reader is mid tier at best but it'll only get better, hopefully.

What is cutefish, and how do I use it?

rizoid , 4 months ago

I went to the GitHub for it and I love the look but it appears abandoned as far as I can tell. Very sad. Maybe I'll reach out to the old maintainer and fork it. I spend a lot of time making gnome look like Mac OS so this looks fun.

There's a point where wanting privacy crosses a line into not wanting to live in reality.

Fluent Reader. I use it with freshrss myself but it is just as good using it fully local.

rizoid , 4 months ago

How is this working for you? The ui for it is completely busted on the newest version of nextcloud for me. I've been slowly moving most of my stuff to nextcloud but the news just isn't working so I've kept my freshrss instance up and running.

rizoid , 4 months ago

I voluntarily use gnome. I spent years on Mac os and I make gnome look like osx.

rizoid , 4 months ago

That's a feature that I've personally learned to live without. Never really tried on gnome to make anything similar so idk what's out there.

Even the people I know who aren't all in on the fediverse are off of Twitter. Why are we still talking about it? The more news coverage the more it continues to exist. Stop covering Elon and let it die.
