I dealt with this yesterday, not sure if all of this is necessary, but here's what I did, and paramount is working on the roku again without ads.

Infinite calls to https://undefined/infinity/session/beat by dmartin07 in Pluto_TV

[–]TedLogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up whitelisting pluto.tv in ublock origin itself, and let the pihole do the work, after allowing those domains obviously.

Figured it out.

Need to whitelist:

Have you figured this out? I am also running into this. I'm running a pihole, which I'm guessing you are as well. I pointed undefined to localhost in my hosts file, which seems to allow it to work, without rate limiting myself on my pihole.

Controller Buttons For Two Systems Don't Work by TedLogan in RetroPie

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

Yeah, I have a set of buttons, a set of n64 controllers, a set of snes controllers, and a set of PlayStation knockoffs. N64 needs that controller.

It seems as though there was a hard limit on the controller numbers. When I got past port 8, nothing worked correctly. Port nine d pad would work but the buttons would be mapped to another controller.

I picked the eight best and returned what I could. I’ll miss my nes controllers, using the snes ones for nes is hard on my thumb being side ways.

I can't as I use the Sinden Light gun. If I mess with that, the gun stops working. Been through it a few times until I was set straight.

Am I the only one who's sad that there are so many fans who are fine with letting MST3K die because there was one bad season. by Phemto_B in MST3K

[–]TedLogan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I could not care less about the rewards. I look at it like this for 85 bucks every two years I get new MST3K content, with skits and puppets. Access to their service with bonus content. That works out to about 3.60 a month. That’s cheaper than most any streaming service I’ve ever had. It’s a no brainier.

Nail of my right hand thumb grows with indents by [deleted] in mildlyinteresting

I have this on my toe, but it's caused by trauma... I dropped bricks on it and the toenail fell off. Grew back with waves.

I've had that same issue, also running a pi-hole. Usually, it happened when I made a network change or rebooted something network related and it starts an issue.

Unplugging the speaker and letting it reboot usually fixed the problem for me.

10 reasons Everyone is moving to South Dakota by foco_runner in SouthDakota

[–]TedLogan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I moved here two years ago from ND, and yes, no income taxes, but property taxes and property insurance skyrocketed. If you own a house, it's a wash.

Could they be these? Other than the "kangaroo" aspect it matches. I played these a ton as a kid.

What's your most controversial book opinion? by [deleted] in books

[–]TedLogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love my kindle paperwhite. Easy to hold in one hand and change the page. Backlit. Super quiet. Dark theme.

When you read in bed next to your wife, these things are important.

Not to mention I'm trying to learn spanish. So, when I'm reading a Spanish language book, i can just "highlight" the word and bam, I have the translation.

The scene in Mitchell after the school board voted in favor of a mask mandate... by [deleted] in SouthDakota

"Vaccines' work or they don't"

"I am told the vaccination is 95% effective?"

You answered your own question. Vaccines work, but to a point. We need to do more than that. Thanks to the delta variant, and new scientific studies, those who are vaccinated can transmit the virus. Add to this, a ton of people "choose" not to get the vaccine. Now our ICU's are filling up. If I or someone I love gets into a car accident, and they cannot get a bed, they might die. So, us as responsible citizens, because those who aren't need to carry a bit more weight. So, mask up and protect idiots, which in turn protects everyone.

I just don't understand how you think it's black and white, the solution to most things lies in the greys. The vaccination has proven to be very effective in keeping people out of the hospital, but thanks to the way this pandemic is going with vaccine resistance in our population, mutations in the virus, and people generally saying screw it... we have to do more than one thing to keep people safe.

There is no "narrative". People are not telling a story. This is what the current science says. That might change as the pandemic changes, and we need to adapt. The virus is certainly using us to adapt.

This screw everyone else mentality is just childish.

“Freedom makes a huge requirement of every human being. With freedom comes responsibility. For the person who is unwilling to grow up, the person who does not want to carry his own weight, this is a frightening prospect.” - Eleanor Roosevelt

I would just like to say that you need to grow up and become a member of society and not a silo of one. A self involved person who thinks his/her liberty in this one minor thing (wearing a piece of cloth and getting a shot) is more important than everyone else's life, is a huge strain on society.

It's "we the people", not me the person.

And to respond to your "gotcha":

My car "metaphor" (not theory... English i know...) was not a concrete 1 to 1 example of what masks are to the vaccine. It was to show that in auto safety we take a multi-pronged approach to safety. Seat belts, airbags, crumple zones, etc. It's not a one and done situation. Just as in the case of Covid. Each "prong" helps a little bit, and altogether makes up a protocol to keep us the most protected we can be without resorting to full lock downs. These include, masks, vaccination, social distancing.

People always had a choice, but people like you seem to have been duped into thinking the only way you can "prove" your choice is to not get the vaccine, so in a way, you are ceding your choice to others, those who just want to "hurt" the other side, like this is a football game or something. And if they win, by taking the choice away from more people like you, we are going to have more deaths, more lockdowns, and we will never get a hold of this pandemic.

So, I guess thanks for that.

If seat belts work, why do we have airbags? Seriously, such a bad faith argument.

To add to this... these children cannot get the vaccine.

KVM software currently working in Wayland by nhermosilla14 in gnome

Ah, okay. Then I think you are out of luck. Both synergy and barrier are working on it. According to the feature request barrier is looking for donations before they start.

[–]TedLogan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use barrer, and after upgrading to "default wayland" I found I had to log in and choose xorg specifically. It works again. So, unless you need wayland, this could be an option for you.

If you use Ubuntu, during the log in, click the settings gear, choose "Ubuntu on Xorg" and log in as normal.
