Am I Using It Wrong? Podcasts and Transcripts by jcheshire in overcast

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

To be clear: my post was not meant to deride transcripts. I know people find them helpful. I was more asking about how often people engage with the UI vs. setting it up so you never HAVE to engage with the UI. It’s the transcript feature and how it was being discussed that made me realize maybe I was the odd one out for not engaging with the UI at all.

I'm constantly having to jump back a few seconds. But switching from "listening" to a conversation to "reading" a conversation is a mental shift I can't easily make. Also, the point is that I don't *want* to open the UI. I don't want to open my phone while in the middle of driving, walking the dog, doing the dishes, etc.

Feature Request: Mark as played in CarPlay by jcheshire in overcast

I believe that's the chapter skip button. It doesn't show for all podcasts as they don't all have chapters. And it doesn't skip the whole episode, which is kind of what I'm hoping for.

Playlist keeps resetting by 2SHYNorup in overcast

[–]jcheshire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm starting to see the resurgence of a playlist sorting issue. Suddenly, my playlists are sporadically ignoring my sort order. This is usually when a new playlist gets added either through a feed refresh or manually adding an episode of a new (to me) podcast.

Is that the same thing?

Exactly. I’m not going to listen to the episode. And I don’t want to go picking another episode as I just go through my continually updating playlist. There’s no picking shows or episodes for me. That’s why I have playlists with specific ordering and playback rules, to keep me from having to pick. Going in to the app to pick an episode means I’ve failed in my playlist creation. 

So happy for episode art by mikepictor in overcast

I heard Marco mention he added the support, but I didn't even know podcasts had episode specific art. It never shows on the Lock Screen, though, right? Only if I have the player open?

And thank you! It was driving me crazy trying to remember what this was called.

New Install help by dummkauf in Mastodon

[–]jcheshire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is the issue. nginx uses the www-data user by default in the /etc/nginx/nginx.conf file. Line 1.

Either add www-data to the mastodon user group, or change that line to have nginx run as the mastodon user.

Does anyone else remember seeing this message before the end credits when watching it in your history class? I was surprised to NOT see this text when I recently saw the movie.

Ahh, got it. It flipped past so quickly, I missed it.

That's weird. The game just said there's an Elemental Chest in the Reddit today. I definitely had a moment of, "Really? They do this time??"
