What a real shame, the red faction franchise would have been great this generation. We have ample power to really show off some cool destruction physics, but no

The engine Can of Duty uses is effectively a heavily modified quake 3 engine.

By this point it’s so modified it may as well be a different thing, but make no mistake it has evolved from the quake 3 engine.

Wait, What’s this about corned beef? I am Irish (as in actually from Ireland) and I have no idea what that has to do with St Patrick’s day?

I used OSMC for years going back to when it was still raspbmc, got the first Vero and then the 4k model.

They were never perfect and hassle free, a lot of which I put down to Kodi itself. I love the idea of Kodi, but the base interface is lacking (especially when you have a big collection) and most of the fancy front-ends / skins I tried would run too slow and once again bring back the shoddy TV experience I was trying to avoid. It also does not support streaming services like Netflix or Disney+ in any usable capacity. Kodi has a rich add-on ecosystem, which usually means you can plug some gaps but the add-ons have a habit of just breaking out of the blue or during major upgrades. I’ve had to have Kodi index my library so many times that I got sick of it ruining film night.

Eventually I bought an Nvidia shield, still using Kodi at first but switching between Plex, jellyfin and emby until I settled on emby for my local content. Being able to use other streaming services was a bonus and the hardware was good enough that it doesn’t feel sluggish.

You can also install 3rd party apps like smart tube for an excellent YouTube experience (and now my preferred way to watch YouTube).

The shield is starting to show it’s age big time (it doesn’t support HDR on YouTube, for example) but sadly outside of the USA there isn’t really any devices that match or beat it - you keep hearing about that Wal-Mart device being brilliant but that’s US only.

So in short, get a good android TV box for the best experience and the most options.

But they’re not wrong either, there’s plenty of precedent for the conservatives getting a higher vote share than polls have predicted. We sometimes call it “the shy Tory” effect and revolt there’s likely lots of reasons behind it, the fact remains that polls are not a guarantee of anything.

It’s also worth pointing out that OLED’s solve many of the drawbacks of LCD’s, particularly around latency and response times.

We just don’t talk about burn in.

In fairness, that scene with the destroyers was fucking awesome. Fuck the canon, it looked cool as fuck.

He likes his coffee how he likes his women.

This is exactly what will happen.

Diff the same video a few times and you’ll be able to figure out which is injected content and which isn’t.

Separate out the injected content and you can fingerprint that content like how Plex or Emby fingerprints intros to TV shows (i.e. it’s a solved and known problem).

Then you can reliably identify the injected and content, you know how long it is and can just tell the client to skip it.

This won’t be easy, it’ll require more than folks indexing ad content but it’s feasible.

More context is needed to understand this post

But it’s the best tractor…

…In the world

Open collective can let you specify where you want that donated money to go, so if the jellyfin admins wanted to they could have set OC up in such a way that donations could go to specific areas - not just clients, but specific feature development even.

If you’re concerned that your donation to the project wouldn’t go to something you value or your wanted to ensure a client you cared about had support, that would have been a better way to manage it.

I really think jellyfin is making a mistake by not centralising development costs for all the various clients and such out there, especially for those that require some developer account or certification to get on a storefront.

Mate, I have been seeing these comics in my feeds for months if not years and I just don’t get them either. They’re like …a little bit weird, but that’s it. I do not understand why people seem to like them.

Not hating, I just really don’t understand.

In the UK we’re mostly using metric with the odd exception (we still love a pint of beer), one of which is that speeds are measured in MPH. It’s not really a big deal, there aren’t many customers between miles and kilometres and anything less than a km is still usually measured in metres.

I didn’t say it was good, but it is easy to use compared to a terminal. It won’t help you find your file, but it’s somewhat intuitive to a novice user - you click around and open folders until you find something that looks like what you’re after. It’s not efficient, it’s downright tedious, but it’s at least easy to do.

It’s all about the barrier to entry to novice users. Most users are novices, they’re the majority of the market so they’ll decide what the market leader is.

There’s weirdly a lot of fractures within the LGBTQ+ community, there’s a joke that the letters are “in order of preference” and quite a lot of the gay community doesn’t recognise trans people, or thinks Bi folks are just gay but won’t admit it and things like that.

An ex of mine was bi and I got exposed to a lot of this shit because of the amount of shit she got from some of her lesbian friends over dating a man. It really shocked me because it’s completely against your own interests to become the very thing that’s opressed you and your kin, yet here we are - gay republicans.

No, neither is easy to use. The second you have to use a terminal or command line you have completely lost the vast majority of people.

You uhhh…you might have missed the sarcasm on that one.
