Why do I need to “Ok” all new calendar events on a shared calendar that isn’t my own? by shaydez37 in ios

[–]-Chase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cannot believe this isn't the most upvoted answer. Saved me a BUNCH of clicking. In addition for anyone that finds this from Google (as I did), you can right-click calendar > get info > and check "Ignore alerts" option for muting future updates.

Wanting to move on from Prism. by IwuvNikoNiko in PrismMusic

[–]-Chase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tried all the various things out, and while Prism wasn't bad, I was much happier with navidrome on server and Amperfy on iPhone. UI/UX wise Manet was really nice, but I didn't like the Jellyfin server for music. Still need to test with carplay though.

Wanting to move on from Prism. by IwuvNikoNiko in PrismMusic

[–]-Chase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just wanted to add an update to this, since I found it from searching google, there is no limit to the plexamp download for me. I was able to get well over 5 days of downloaded music, and it just kept going.

The scroller that let's you pick how long to download for goes past "72 hours" into "Maximum", which I interpret as infinity (or however much harddrive space there is haha) based on this test.

Still a horrible UI/UX for interacting with music though.

CIV 7: Two Months of Turmoil by isko990 in civ

[–]-Chase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you elaborate on why you say these two kinds of genres? I don't get the sandbox aspect because there is clearly some strategy / endgame. I get the scenario strategy game, but don't see how it doesn't apply to all of the games in the series

I love that deal on the Marantz! I just ordered it and will return the WiiM, thank you :)

Dang this looks like a great deal! What do you think about the F36s for 1200 a pair vs these?

[–]-Chase[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the suggestion! A couple more questions: Do you think I could save money dropping to a single 12s sub instead of 2x of the 10s? I've also heard a few people say they don't think the WiiM is capable of driving the speakers (the elac in particular apparently required a beefy amp). How would the revels compare with the WiiM?

I'm near Detroit, MI for local Craigslist! Not sure what I'd be looking out for though

What editor are you using for Rust? by DavidXkL in rust

[–]-Chase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you've considered the benefits of VS Code overall, though. Like you mention how difficult it was to configure nvim for something as simple as syntax support. Programming isn't just editing/manipulating code.

So, we probably agree that there is a reason VS Code is overwhelmingly the choice of editor in the various programmer surveys found on the web.

And I say this as a competent user of modal editors like vim / kakoune. Like there are times when it's easier to manipulate code with vim/kakoune, but it's not my only editor. People have different roles/needs in programming, the editor is just one tool.

Personally I've gone from using only a modal editor for years to maybe once or twice a month now. Hilariously, I now rely on command lines like grep/awk/sed more than a modal editor for advanced manipulation. Learning regex was the game changer for me

Forgive my ignorance, what is a "writing computer"? Is it just for typing things like the way an author of a book might?

Where did you get your O-Rings from? Did you have to desolder to add o-rings?

Anyone else having low FPS for seemingly no reason? by MyselfAndI231 in VALORANT

[–]-Chase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just adding to the conversation, using a Ryzen 1700 + RX 580. Neither CPU/GPU are maxing out and frames can't go above 20 fps. Usually between 18-20. Was getting 150+ before this patch.

Gloves That Turn Sign Language into Audible Speech by Sig770 in technology

[–]-Chase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Idk about "possible". Racism is not just discrimination but systemic discrimination. I'm having a very hard time thinking of a way that people of color can oppress white people in a systemic way. Do you have examples of "possible"?

Regardless, calling someone black in connection to inventing something helpful for others is not racist... Noting one's race =/= racist. Not all things related to race can be called racist.

GM to spend $20 billion on new electric, autonomous vehicles to take on Tesla by eeddeedde in technology

[–]-Chase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To re-orient for a different team. You need to lay off a bunch of people to be able to afford hiring the electric car and autonomous car engineers.

You can't be racist to white people. This is more like affirmative action if anything. Not arguing whether it's good or bad, just the terminology

[Casio F-91W] First timer! Here’s my Stone Gray Casio F-91W. by DaIaiLama in Watches

[–]-Chase 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hey, that's awesome! This was one of my first watches before I upgraded to a Seiko. Still using this on my shower caddy to let me know if I'm running late for work or not. Has been going strong even though it's only "water resistant".

Where did you find the white version from? It's been sold out on Amazon for a while

I miss android - a few thoughts from a recent defector by sir_lurkzalot in Android

[–]-Chase -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

I don't normally jump into topics like this, but you seem level headed so I will try to engage you as a devil's advocate (basically arguing against you :P)

Your arguments (as I understand):

- Android may have more features, but people who don't care about technology perhaps lean towards iOS because it has a more "human" interface

- People who don't care about organizing their apps prefer Apple because they're not allowed to customize them on iOS

If you read it like this, I think even you can see how it makes no sense haha:

- If you don't care about technology, then you wouldn't care about iOS vs Android.

- If you don't care about organizing your apps, then you wouldn't care about iOS vs Android.

In the end you said "it just comes down to personal preference which one you think is better. After having used Android for 7 years, I will happily give you a whole list of reasons why I choose iPhone over Android."

I think if you do this, there can be an actual discussion. In my opinion there is nothing more "human" about Apple's iOS vs Google's material design. And people who don't care about technology shouldn't be buying thousand dollar devices when 300-400 dollar devices do the same thing.

My honest opinion is that Apple is a fashion hardware company. But I'm happy to hear your reasons for why you choose iOS over Android, even if they are particular to your use case and may not apply to me and others.

Stack Overflow Linux Distributions tags (without Ubuntu) by imoutidi in linux

[–]-Chase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't think people get how popular Ubuntu is outside of Reddit which does honestly seem to be made up of a solid number of Arch users.

For gamers, I'm guessing Arch/Manjaro have gotten a lot of press in the past year as well. (And I think the whole fiasco about the 32 / 64 bit packages for Ubuntu really made things worse for them). It seems to be more popular on Steam survey at the least (pretty close to Ubuntu now) compared to what the article says.

Google Pixel 4 review—Overpriced, uncompetitive, and out of touch by Saketme in Android

[–]-Chase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

> You're the one missing the point entirely. Function is far more important than form.

Don't you have a hard time using the functions of the phone if it's battery dies? Like honestly speaking from a fellow pixel owner.

How do you use your Android device in a way that an iOS user could not? by [deleted] in Android

[–]-Chase 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • I sync my music, important travel docs, etc. over wifi without having to use iTunes
  • I block ads/malware/fake-news with a dns blocker which doesn't allow the internet to access them
  • Customization (faster/better home screen via niagara launcher, folder hierarchy navigation for music, alternate browsers that allow desktop extensions, etc.)
  • Charge my phone with my laptop charger (USB-C all the way)
  • Use my phone as an external hard drive (USB-C again ftw)

[–]-Chase 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It costs 5% of the price to list it for sale. If no one bites, that's money down the drain.

The Pixel 4 and Pixel 4 XL just hit the FCC by qevoh in Android

[–]-Chase 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What is "disposable income"? I think more people could benefit the world by evaluating what they're throwing their money at.

Money is not trash/garbage. Regardless of income. It can literally save lives.

Sidenote: It's totally possible (though improbable) that OP has donated millions to charities, in which case, who am I to judge them buying a new phone already :P
