Thanks! Looks interesting. Might be a bit awkward to fit the data types, but I’m definitely curious to play with it and see how it compares to the other ERPs I’ve experienced, which were also clunky, even with more typical business data.
Thank you! This particular issue is something that I only started to become aware of a few days ago, so I’m still trying to learn more before pushing for any big changes. I don’t know that self hosting is even the right solution for our group, so I’m glad to see that they also offer a hosted option, although the self hosted option seems like a great way for me to test it out.
I have no clue yet if an open source solution exists, but I’m just getting started volunteering with a local animal rescue, and they definitely need a better solution for records management.
Hard disagree. If you ask people to make a temporary change that still feels achievable, they’re more likely to at least give it a shot, and many of those people will spend some time considering alternatives. Once the week is up, some people may even choose to continue boycotting Amazon, or at least reduce their spending there.
I randomly tried using Jellyfin today instead of Plex, but Jellyfin kept crashing my browser and logging me out, so I wasn’t in the mood to troubleshoot, so I just gave up and went back to Plex.
In the past, I’ve been annoyed that Jellyfin didn’t seem to have an option to sort media by “Last Episode Date Added”, nor did it seem to have a way to build a queue of episodes from multiple different shows. I think I was also having trouble figuring out how to add multiple sources… I have my “long term” library on a local hard drive, plus anything “new” on a seedbox.
I theoretically want to fully switch over eventually, but so far, Plex is still good enough for my use case.
That’s so weird. I’ve been using Plex for years and had never heard of “Passout Protection” until looking it up just now, nor does it ever stop playback on its own for me unless it reaches the end of the queue. I’m using the free version via web browser on my computer. Maybe it’s a setting that only affects apps? Continuous playback on Plex is one of the reasons why I’ve always preferred it over Netflix, etc.
I’ve recommended it to others, but none are interested, which is extra surprising considering how many of them work in tech or tech adjacent.
Thanks to divorce & remarriage, I used to have 8 living people that I considered grandparents, plus a few more that I guess could’ve also been considered grandparents, but they were estranged and I never met them. If everyone is divorced and remarried, I think you could claim up to 16 grandparents!
If I’m reading this correctly, the reported cases occured in May of 2024? So, 8-9 months ago? I understand testing, etc., does take some time, but it feels unreasonably long for this information to become public. Are my expectations out of line?
I’ve always gotten them for free, but through health insurance. I believe there are some resources available to help uninsured people to get them for free, but the added hassle often deters people.
No worries about “flue”, I understood what you meant, and that’s the primary goal of language. There’s definitely some other English words with regional spelling variations (grey/gray, tire/tyre, color/colour), and many other confusing, similarly spelled words (lose/loose, bowl/bowel, descent/decent 😉). Have you heard about spelling bees? Spelling vs. pronunciation in English is so inconsistent that it’s one of few languages where holding them makes much sense. I bet they’d be pretty silly to hold in German!
I used it because that’s what the instructions on the Linux Mint website for creating a bootable USB stick from Windows say to do.
I have no clue what “electron wrapper”, “dd”, or “rufus” are. I’m trying to learn more, but can’t learn it all in one day.
I’m in one of the more liberal areas of the US, and as far as I’m aware, the local hospitals recommend covid & flu shots for everyone in the fall, not just vulnerable populations. I’ve never had any trouble getting covid/flu shots in the fall, and they used to even come to our office to offer flu shots to everyone. I think by this time of year though, they may only be recommended for vulnerable populations due to supply issues.
I have a slightly off topic question of my own: is “flue” a regional spelling? I have always seen it as “flu”, and searching for “flu vs flue” is just giving me results like “cold vs flu”.
Yeah, I used to want to text a lot before meeting face to face, but have learned that almost always means I start to “fill in the blanks” and the person I meet never matches up with my expectations. By meeting face to face quickly, I don’t have a chance to build those expectations and am unlikely to feel “catfished” by anything other than blantant lies on their profile.
I think the bigger problem is that the apps really amplify the sense of “there’s always more fish in the sea.” So if that first date wasn’t full of sparks, people often prefer to see what other options are out there, rather than going on second dates to see if anything develops.
With the online approach, I know I’m very guilty of focusing on the other person’s “flaws”, and deciding they’re deal breakers. With people I meet via offline methods, we generally get to know each other a bit more organically and end up having multiple unofficial “dates” before the first official date.
My last actual date was over a year ago, with someone I met offline through mutual friends. There was definitely an initial spark, but it fizzled almost as quickly (mostly my own discomfort with emotional intimacy). We’re actually still friends though, and hang out with each other more often than I hang out with the friend who introduced us. If we had met via dating apps, I highly doubt we would still be friends because we just wouldn’t have any reason to cross paths organically.
I have most definitely seen higher effective suggestions at coffee shops. I ordered a single drip coffee (~$2.50) and the suggestions were $1, $2, or $3.
Per your original comment:
There hasn’t been an ad for alcohol on US TV for decades
Beer is alcohol. Beer is still advertised on US TV. Everything you’ve said just comes across as a bad faith attempt to redirect the argument.
I don’t usually watch live television, but I definitely saw a few beer ads during the Super Bowl.
JFC, what’s wrong with me? My first thought when reading that was, “Ooh! Maybe then I’ll finally be able to find a job again!”
I never really had trouble getting dates on Tinder, etc., but very few of those led to second dates. Of the people I’ve dated that I met without the help of apps, I probably would’ve “swiped left” on most of them. As another user said, general human interaction is my current route, focusing my energy on social interactions where I can meet people the old fashioned way: mostly friends of friends. That can range from get togethers at someone’s house, happy hours, general meetup groups, volunteering, hobbies and/or classes.
Blue cheese crumbles in ramen or pumpkin soup. Soft blue cheese on a water cracker, topped with a drizzle of spicy honey. Maybe not super weird, but a lot of people just don’t like blue cheese to begin with.
Oh yeah, I’m very much aware of where I asked. Haha. I see an opportunity where I can at least advocate for the FOSS options, so I’m trying to learn what those are and how they compare to other solutions before I make any suggestions to the decision makers.
I was recently laid off, and have been wanting to explore some personal self hosting projects, plus I’m hoping to make a bit of a career pivot, so my interest is coming from a variety of motivations.
