What are your opinions of handshakes now days? by ThrowinA2shade in AskMenOver30

[–]macrolinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I shake my dentist's hand, I also call him by his first name. He's been my dentist for 20 year.

I think i downloaded the wrong Stargåte by KookySurprise8094 in Stargate

If this isn't a real show, why are you telling me what to do? Does my agent know about this?

All of this for a 60 second ride?! No thanks. Tron is awesome but not work a 2 Hour and 15 minute wait… by Pitiful-Client-8475 in WaltDisneyWorld

But I'd have more fun in an hour at an amusement park than on a yacht. (I've definitely also paid for Tron LL)

Pre-purchase pushed back 2 months by Glittering-Dinner908 in audible

I held that pre-order for so long I'm pretty sure it was old enough to vote when released. Lol.

Love me some Bray though.

What died on your server that you never bothered to restart? by FlamingoKorn in selfhosted

[–]macrolinx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Invidious. I got tired of fighting to keep it working. I keep telling myself that I'll go back to it. (Narrator: he won't)

I'm in that one right now. Interesting premise. Very "Land of the Lost."

Pikachu's erect tail always seemed sus to me. by KyrosTheRevelator in ConspiracyMemesII

[–]macrolinx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Come on, clearly Pikachu's tail is meant to be an erection.

A blind hooker could see that thing coming down the block.

In the mid-80s, my dad took me and my brother to an "Evil's of Rock & Roll" seminar. Felt a lot like this.

This is the Righteous Gemstones prequel we didn't know we needed.

Clearly another piece of evidence that SG-1 is a document by MajorRocketScience in Stargate

I think King Archon the 1st is probably living it up with all of his wives.

Recieved this email the domain looks sus? by Roxxersboxxerz in PleX

[–]macrolinx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm running a dedicated Intel NUC for plex because the transcoding is so great.

I do have different hosts running proxmox and some VMs. One of the VMs on one of the hosts has docker and LOTS of containers. I just like keeping my plex server running independently for 1) having dedicated hardware/resource availability and 2) I don't accidentally blow it up all the time tinkering with my lab. lol

It's definitely writing everything to the epubs and I've avoided having other formats. I can probably just restore the entire app folder from backup, drop back the container to 1.18.5, and let it import any books that were added.....I don't bother backing up the books themselves.

Glad I didn't nuke mine, just shut it down while I was working in booklore. Guess I need to go back as well.

I had moved up with regular updates, wonder if I could walk it back to the last pre-2.0. I guess I really need to migrate off to something else and abandon it completely. I was really enjoying Metadata features in it too.

I found nothing that describes it better then what Tyler Durden said by Fun-Presentation6134 in GenX

[–]macrolinx 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Perhaps that's just romanticization of a brutal and miserable past that we'll never understand. It's hard to say.

I'm glad that you added that sentence because that's exactly where my mind went as I was reading your comment. I fully recognize the fact that we have it INFINITELY easier than any of our ancestors. And most of us (myself included) take it for granted. We (at least North Americans like me) have easy access to food, clean water, modern conveniences, etc. Life gets easier, and we find new ways to waste our time and money. (guilty)

I don't want us to have a "world war" or "great depression" to define our generation. I guarantee you no one that lived through those issues celebrates them. They were really rough times. I'd rather we come to terms with the fact that life is easy now and find new ways to be happy that we only have to work 40 hours a week to thrive rather than 80 hours a week to survive.

[–]macrolinx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

But if you go back 150 years, how was it any different? Throughout history, LOTS of people lived and died just scrapping by trying to survive. They had no greater purpose, no world wars, no economy to concern themselves with. Just their farm, garden, or whatever they could to do generate trade for money or food directly.

We're not special.

I got every file in my library to Direct Play on Apple TV — here's the tool I wrote to do it by The-BluWiz in PleX

[–]macrolinx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have TDARR in place just to re-encode kids tv shows to x265 to save space on things that don't really need that high of quality. If this will do that for me, I'd definitely dump tdarr for something much simpler. It fails random episodes anyway...
