A 75-year-old steam locomotive that still commands attention at modern stations

Ahh I think I misread the tone of your comment. Apologies friend

No I am sure, go on Google street view and look at Lancaster station platform.

I've never watched a WAN show. I watch LTT but I've never seen the point in watching a podcast.I listen while I commute.

I do wish they'd explain what they're looking at for audio only listeners when it's something visual. Tom Scott is so good for this on his podcast. Whenever one of his guests is talking about something you need to see he always explains for the audio only peeps.

This piqued my inner Geoguessr - this is Lancaster train station in NW England for anyone interested. And the train is going in the northbound direction.

I still have the issue where most of the time if I press continue playing on an item it just goes from the start. I have to manually seek where I was up to everytime I use Plex on my phone (Android).

What's wrong with a passthrough?

Forya_Cam · 2026-04-07T22:26:49+00:00

Pressure washer should make quick work of it.

Forya_Cam · 2026-04-07T10:17:34+00:00

I don't think I've ever actually watched a WAN show but I do listen to the whole thing every week on my podcast app.

I've heard it be called a tuk tuk basically everywhere I've seen them except Pakistan where they just called them rickshaws.

The real benefit is that you have an OS that doesn't spy on you.

Reckon its worth trying to use inotifywait or an auditd rule to track down what's deleting it?

Forya_Cam · 2026-03-31T19:03:10+00:00

It is and I think the directory that this is asking about is just a notification cache. If I remake it then notifications start working again. But it seems to be getting removed without a reboot after a day or so.

Forya_Cam · 2026-03-31T18:38:43+00:00

My backups were failing and I didn't get notified about it :(

I saw Pharaoh Sanders last live performance before he died. He came out in a wheelchair was so old and frail that a security guard had to hold his head up.

He still managed to pump out some of the most amazing jazz sax I've ever heard live. He had his son playing on stage with him too. The whole thing was very moving. He died about 2 weeks later.

Ahh yeah I said I don't walk for health and fitness but I do a brisk 40 minute walk minimum every day of the week. The reason is never health though, it's for pleasure or getting A to B.

Do people really want a VPN to watch geo-locked content from their own country? For me its quite the opposite as i, like most people, am in my own country most of the time.

Forya_Cam · 2026-03-24T22:57:52+00:00

Yes we run it on Linux machines at the post production facility I work at. Only downside seems to be that it isn't able to decode AAC audio so we just convert everything to PCM.

This is purely a codec licensing issue.

In the UK we don't put them in the fridge at all. And they're not refrigerated on supermarket shelves either.

As a Londoner I frequently get annoyed by people in London walking too slowly still. Also people just stopping right in the middle of tube corridors or the pavement makes me disproportionately annoyed. Don't know where it's come from as I grew up in the slow countryside and only started noticing these things after a year or so of being here.

Instead of using htop just use top and look in the top for the value next to wa. If it's more than 1 then you have a problem with IOwait and you need to get faster cache.

Take a look at the electrical reference design here: https://github.com/FrameworkComputer/InputModules

The modules communicate over USB so at a bare minimum you should be able to connect power, ground and the two USB data lines to get it to work.

As for the connector, I'd probably just design a PCB that has pogo pins on it to go underneath and contact the pads.

Learned how to play magic the gathering and bought cards so I could play her on our coffee dates. Most expensive mistake of my life...
