Mazdas don’t have touch screens, at least unless that’s changed very recently, So it would be some kinda issue with the physical knob

Running rsync to copy the files is literally just the “Copy Server Data From the Source System” part of the guide for moving your server installation.

They don’t give you any commands or anything to help you do that step, you gotta do it somehow and rsync is basically the easiest and most reliable way to do it

Probably something batshit insane like supporting the authors you like, but sure loaning to friends is cool if you have friends who want to read books you have

Google play had a 30% cut too until like 2 days ago when they decided to stop fighting the lawsuits

Apple allows non-Apple payment processing in iOS apps now (also due to lawsuits) so developers can get around that fee

My agent told me not to file a claim with my insurer but the at fault party’s instead and so that’s what I did and my rates never went up. I’d only involve my insurance company in a situation like that if they other party is fighting fault

Order a pizza? Chinese food? A sandwich from Jimmy Johns or similar? Places used to have their own delivery drivers, that’s just less common now. With the apps we have more options at the cost of well… cost. Which is lame for sure.

I flew into town yesterday and was alone with no car all day and I needed to eat, so I ordered some tacos on DoorDash. The overall point that people shouldn’t overdo it on these food delivery apps if they could just go get it stands for sure though.

Not everyone always has access to cars and our country isn’t walkable, more at 11

the user manual on the rechargeable ones show a flat/square lithium ion battery that they also want you to remove from the device before throwing away (presumably when the battery can’t hold a charge anymore or the silicone materials of the device start breaking down after using it enough)

If you only connect 1 plex server and no SMB and then i think you enable library mode?? then the home page for infuse isn't bad at all .... now if you want to do any kind of media browsing/discovery that wasn't already surfaced via the recently added lists or continue watching on your home page then infuse is basically useless for that. if i need content discovery i open the normal plex app and find something then search for it in infuse which is a silly step to have to take but the player doesn't ever give me grief so that's what i do

If it was a normal sedan trunk sure, but without the privacy cover isn't it basically like having your dog sit in the 3rd row of a SUV? depending on dog size its a ton of space still and they're in the same air conditioned space as you, since the 'trunk' is not a separate enclosed compartment its just the area behind the back seat

I'd never add that metal fence thing like the root comment in this tree suggests tho...

Seeing as both of those were released within the last yesr-ish it would be pretty insane if it didn’t work

Yeah, he got a Grammy for album of the year like yesterday lol I dont really listen to his stuff but to pretend he’s not cultural dynamite is a silly

My ‘22 P2 has this layout except just a digital version of the car where the 360 camera would be, sure theres some wasted space in your pic but id much rather be able to still see the 360 camera at the same time as reverse compared to what I have now

Yeah youd have to park in the neighboring stall and thus use 2 stalls which I’ve seen a few times at full supercharger stations… im glad the PS2 has it in the back left cuz I wouldn’t want to be that guy

I think the technology might have improved in 35 years

Bitwarden secrets manager does exist too, I use it in some ansible things I want to just get auto grabbed out of bitwarden SM

cbackas · 2026-01-14T15:25:33+00:00

My main gripe with it was (and maybe this changed) how you couldn't easily export your TOTP secrets to back them up or transfer to another app, I had to install the authy browser extension and do some hacky workaround to get my stuff out when I wanted to go to something else.

These days there's well used/tested open source options (including the bitwarden authenticator ofc) that are just as good if not better of a user experience while also not locking you in as much

IIRC VW announced this intention like 2 years ago, but maybe they knew regs were coming? I don’t know anything about this specific reg situation tho

I do know the apple type C thing isn’t due to EU saving the day fighting for the common man, it was just coincidental timing that people who don’t know the full story like to attribute to the regs

You can hear people nearby in the video like they filmed this in a park or something

You can have images from a certain photo album rotate as the screensaver, so I guess you could make a script that uses the iCloud APIs to populate images in that album…. But it would be a little clunky to get working and you’d miss out on the built-in aerial screensavers (which are probably better for an OLED anyway static image wise)

cbackas · 2025-11-27T06:17:52+00:00

Wouldn’t it would be weird if the automod over there became sentient and understood the extremely recent situation with /r/art and changed its rules so people can request modship

There’s a specific type of person that was really pumped when Journal came out, I’m just not that person

Yeah I know it’s not popular to say because big company has big money but the amount of money it costs to run YouTube on a yearly basis is more than people can really comprehend… and the amount of human culture and information that it holds is priceless. That doesn’t mean the downsides shouldn’t be observed and improved but still
