For nerdy nerds like us a torrent client isn’t anything complicated. Regulating up and downstream bandwidth to personal preference isn’t complicated. Managing torrents to seed and not isn’t complicated. For your Average Joe though…

I haven’t watched Mad Max one in twenty years, but I’m pretty sure the backdrop is rising international political tensions and the ending suggests a global nuclear war.

Not daydreams but I have scenarios that I explore in different narratives I make up to ease myself into sleep. Currently it’s a sci-fi one. They are not intended to be stories for anybody else and I have no ambition to write anything down.

And the traditional beverage of choice is the carbonated soft drink Julmust, despite a certain international soda company upping their efforts every year to be associated with Christmas. (Their Christmas ads are not very popular in Sweden because hey it’s once a year something is outselling your product, you greedy ghoul. Let us have our own traditions.)

Sweden. Some people are having decorations up already but normal is from advent. Christmas is celebrated the eve of the 24th with dinner and Santa visiting in person. Dinner is commonly a Christmas ham and other regional or family traditional dishes. 25th is a slow day when kids are playing with their new toys and the adults are relaxing after the build up until Christmas eve. The evening of the 25th is quite common for young adults that are visiting their family home in a town where they no longer live to go out to the local bars and get shitfaced with people they used to know, possibly air their teenage grudges or crushes and get in a fight or laid depending on the scenario and outcome.

Same here with ml and I got banned from subs and by mods because I am just a filthy leftist and not a full on totalitarian cultist. Signed up on some different other ones. Learned some time ago that it is possible to filter everything and everyone from ml and my Fediverse experience has improved bigly.

It’s not funny and sad, it’s hilarious and deeply depressing.

My understanding of space engineering is that getting rid of heat is a bigger problem. Makes me wonder how much of efficiency of Stirling engines are lost due to extra weight and complexity for heat exchangers and radiators.

My dog is very happy about cold weather and crispy frozen leaves on the ground. I’m happy about my dog being happy about cold weather and crispy frozen leaves on the ground.

If this post is intended as discussion material; No, not as long that I have my stationary computer that fills my gaming needs.

I think that’s the same game I queued up for like 90 mins at a computer fair to have a few minutes of very confused playtime and that was it.

I remember trying the first VR headset game 1990 that ran on a Commodore Amiga in like 7 fps and was terrible in every way.

Back in the day scanners were not the table model that is obsolete today but were drum scanners or hand scanners of which the latter was a hammerhead mouse with a horizontal optical sensor and regular computer mice used balls for tracking.

Xennial here. I’m glad to stay out of this manufactured generational conflict drama.

I’ve been called boomer and merrily laugh in the face of the kids that think they are just as clever that I thought I was in their age.

I support this and have their EU passports shredded when they leave.

Well, you don’t wear shoes indoors in any of the Nordic countries.

We have pineapple and banana and kebab and salad on pizza¹. Apparently it is considered weird.

¹ not the same pizza, obviously. That would be weird.

Thanks! Do you know if it possible to run Qobuz headless or in a docker container or some of the sort? I did some searching but couldn’t find anything.

I’ve been on Tidal for some time but noticed that Qobuz has released a connect service that seems to work like Sp*tify Connect so that you can remote control one instance from another. Like, playing music on computer connected to amp can be controlled through the phone.

I’d appreciate if somebody using Qobuz could confirm?

Don’t go looking for dates where everybody is looking for a hook up.
