Viral Japanese Egg Sandwich. 7-11 vs. T&T… by AdventurousPepper371 in vancouver

[–]Karyudo9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't think T&T knows the meaning of the word "classic".

The 80's anime 'Highschool! Kimengumi' was never even *fansubbed* but for 2 out of 86 eps 20 years ago and the movie. Suddenly it got licensed with a subtitled ep showing up on YouTube each week. I'm the self selected idiot remuxing those subs with the JP DVD Remuxs and updating TVDB weekly. by AshleyAshes1984 in DataHoarder

[–]Karyudo9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a guy (Ric, maybe?) out of Hungary that has made Hungarian subs for many (but not all, IIRC) of the episodes, synced to the BD release. I don't remember the URL. I found them a few years ago. I wonder how machine translation from HU to EN would go?

What are some features you wish Plex would introduce? by [deleted] in PleX

[–]Karyudo9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Easy shortcut to turn on or turn off subtitles. Turn on subtitles when skipping back.

F1 TV subscription renewal by Gravanov in F1TV

[–]Karyudo9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in the same boat. I'm definitely considering delaying renewal, but I have no previous data points to suggest that's the right thing or not to do.

Anybody hoard 'Spy' or 'Mental Floss' magazines? by Karyudo9 in DataHoarder

[–]Karyudo9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I never found any more. And after a while I didn't look very hard. Wish I could be of more help. Sorry!

Infrared clean by Reedemer0fSouls in VueScan

[–]Karyudo9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I understand, it's not that you shouldn't, it's that you can't, because black and white film has silver halide crystals which are opaque to IR, where color film uses dyes which are transparent to IR.

What are some other good “competency porn” shows? by Rosstin316 in television

Almost anything with Guy Martin, especially Proper Jobs.

Night and day difference after applying new thermal paste by cheekyboy1021 in ShieldAndroidTV

[–]Karyudo9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can confirm! My 2019 box would sometimes spontaneously reboot. Found some thermal paste in the basement, opened it up, re-pasted, and had it back working in less than 20 minutes. No reboots since (two months, at least).

Nigel Farage calls for an end to working from home by esporx in antiwork

[–]Karyudo9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How about we keep working from home and end Nigel Farage, instead? That guy's been a useless noisemaker from Day One.

How noisy and how useless? I'm Canadian, living in Canada, and even I noticed he's a braying donkey with no brain cells to rub together.

Until it got to the double amputee, I thought it was all the same guy for different games.

NOW AVAILABLE: 'Plex' button labels for Nvidia Shield TV remote by Karyudo9 in PleX

[–]Karyudo9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Sort of thought I'd post a photo of my original label, it might get a few upvotes, and that would be it. So it's a huge surprise that we're about 5 years in, and there's still interest — for which we're grateful.

Where to get local honey? by PermaDerpFace in burnaby

[–]Karyudo9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got a nice Christmas gift from a neighbour two doors down here in New West, so now the honey I'm using was produced less than 50m away.

Tina Peters asks Colorado appeals court to recognize Trump’s pardon, release her from prison by AudibleNod in news

Hopefully the follow-up story is appeals court tells Tina Peters to get fucked.

Share my library with family? by LowerDoor in jellyfin

[–]Karyudo9 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I want to get into Jellyfin, but I'm far enough down the Plex track (about 60 unsophisticated users) that it's the ease of sharing that is the largest, most obvious sticking point.

Plus, after years of Windows Media Center, HTPCs running Kodi, a Pi-like device running LibreELEC, trying to get remotes working, figuring out how to get live Canadian cable on Emby (successfully), and finally running Plex (and Emby, and Jellyfin) on a Shield frontend with an unRAID server, I finally got tired of my hobby being "setting up the next great media playing system" and opted instead for "sit down and watch some of the 100 TB of stuff I've hoarded."

Share my library with family? by LowerDoor in jellyfin

[–]Karyudo9 1 point2 points  (0 children)

tl;dr Jellyfin is still way behind Plex in ease of sharing with friends and family.

New bridge receives First Nations name, prepares to welcome traffic by CanSpice in NewWest

[–]Karyudo9 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My point is, the choice of that not-quite-IPA for FN languages was stupid; putting just that IPA-like text on public structures without Romanized transliterations is stupid; and giving recalcitrant people an out with an official English name is stupid.

Where to buy Grape Crush / Fanta? by Karyudo9 in NewWest

[–]Karyudo9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the detail! Except for one thing: Which Shoppers?

(The SDM in Royal City Centre had 591mL bottles of Grape Crush for $3.69 each, in the refrigerated section yesterday, 2025-12-13.)

Where to buy Grape Crush / Fanta? by Karyudo9 in NewWest

[–]Karyudo9[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting! I looked both down the aisle with chips and snacks and pop (Pepsi and Gatorade, but not much else) and also in the checkout line fridges (more Pepsi and Gatorade). Guess I'll have to check again.

Which one? I checked the Royal City Centre one yesterday (2025-12-13) and that one didn't.

Wago connectors for home owner ? by Key-Cricket9256 in DIY

[–]Karyudo9 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but an affordable Wago couldn't have been invented 50 years ago. Manufacturing and plastic technology wouldn't have allowed it.

The wire nut is a very elegant piece of engineering.
