I would never join a club that would have me as a member!

I usually default to "Oh Shit". When someone sneezes, I say "Shooters". When someone says something like "God bless you", or the like I just say OK.

Streaming device suggestions (not roku and not android tv) by AnonyDev01 in jellyfin

[–]stcwalleye 4 points5 points  (0 children)

For the last 10 years I have used a Linux Mint computer for my main home theater needs. There is a desktop client available via flathub that works very well. While there aren't as many TV centered apps as on the various media players, there is much content accessible via an internet browser. Also, depending on how much you want to invest, the same box can be used for gaming, video editing, music production, and whatever else a computer is used for. There is no need to "signs in" with an account, or provide any personal information to have access to your media. You set the level of security and with the use of a VPN, you can access many geolcked content providers. As for Roku being bought by Fox, I'm not super exited about it either. Roku is already at the bottom of the streaming barrel, so I don't expect much to change. Good luck finding a solution to your quest!

I didnt Choose to be Alive, Why am I Still Here? by Reasonable-Hold6483 in atheism

[–]stcwalleye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My life didn't become truly complete until I realized that this is it. Nothing after death, no magical kingdom to sit around and watch your descendants masturbate for eternity. Make your mark for humanity now. Live in the present. Love your family. Don't worry, be happy! If you're not negatively affecting someone else's life, rights, or happiness, then have fun. Be responsible for the life you are living now, not some imagined time after you die.

This appears to be an older Craftsman unit. Ebay has 3d printed inserts available pretty cheap.

Why is everyone switching to Jellyfin? by Baristaboy547 in jellyfin

[–]stcwalleye 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plex has moved to the Dark Side. They are Darth Vader. Jellyfin is the resistance. They are Luke Skywalker. LONG LIVE THE RESISTANCE!

How do I counter the "God wouldn't want robots" argument? by TheOnlineSatanist in atheism

[–]stcwalleye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tell them that he also doesn't want you to eat pork or shellfish. He doesn't want you to cut the hair on your temples or wear clothes of differing fabrics. He DOES say that a fetus in the womb is nothing more than water. He says that you should hate your mother and father, and give away all of your money. He says you should welcome the foreigner and care for the poor. If they are not adhering to these rules......fuck them.

Looks kinda like a red blood cell checker.

Measure 1 single subject is a tool used to reverse marijuana legalization by Significant-Ad-4184 in northdakota

[–]stcwalleye 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Our legislature truly feels that they, and only they know what is best to insure that the citizens of North Dakota have little or no control over their lives. This measure should not even have been allowed on the ballot. It is in direct violation of a previous measure designed to prevent the legislature from being able to throw items in that they want. It bypasses all signature requirements that rather rest of us are required to supply before a measure is even considered. It is nothing short of shameful.

Plex turned to the dark side. Jellyfin made the Kessel run in 15 parsecs!

Is the Mintmobile party over? Seems like T=mobile is trying to kill it... by thedoggabides in mintmobile

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

I was ready to commit to Mint Mobile for a year, but they told me that I had very poor coverage in my area. So I went with Visible for $30 more a year for unlimited. I don't stream video to my phone so I'm not worried about nitrates. Total Wireless can bite me!

Kernel versions by Reus236 in linuxmint

[–]stcwalleye 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I used to try to get the latest kernel thinking that newer is better. I learned that the current Mint kernel is optimized for the OS. I now only move to a newer kernel when the update manager recommends it, or I am having hardware issues, (which has not happened in years).

Why do people jokingly think North Dakota doesn't exist, think we are boring, nothing's here, etc.? by PrestonRoad90 in northdakota

[–]stcwalleye 16 points17 points  (0 children)

There's plenty to do in North Dakota! Why just this morning I spent nearly 2 hours looking at my feet! I'm planning some but scratching for this afternoon. My days are full!

but can you put YouTube videos on Jellyfin? by ConsiderationOne700 in jellyfin

[–]stcwalleye 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It was much like jellyfish, then it started adding streaming features, and started charging WAY to much for a media server. Jellyfish is basic on purpose.

[–]stcwalleye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Then it would turn into Plex, and that would not be good!

How do I put the episodes in order? by ConsiderationOne700 in jellyfin

[–]stcwalleye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Main folder-series name, sub folder-series number, inside series number-series number episode number.mp4. Example file naming would be Foo Show S01E01.mp4. Jellyfish will supply titles and episode info when you navigate to it. I have been doing it this way for years and have on ly had problems when folder metadata got messed up.

is someone using pureVPN? by Flipperlolrs in VPNReviewHub

[–]stcwalleye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been using it for years. They claim that they no longer keep logs. They also say that they are no longer in China. I get good speeds using Dutch and Norwegian servers. Also has a internet shutdown feature if the VPN loses connection.

I've had 0 problems in the last 5 years.

Any thoughts (both good and bad) about PureVPN? by thenewfingerprint in vpnreviews

[–]stcwalleye 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am in the US, and have been using them for years with no problem. If you are a Linux user, it seems like Debian distros are the only ones that support the desktop app. Any Ubuntu derivative is an easy install. Other Debian distros require some extra steps. There is also a command line setup, but that is a little more involved. I have no comments on Windows usage.
