How exactly do you fuck up pizza, let alone this badly?

Ad others have said, nextcloud won't rescan or reindex on a reboot. no idea why sync thing does, and surely there must be some way to disable that, too. I'm still hesitant to recommend NC as it's somewhat fragile, needs way more babying than I'm willing to keep up with and just does too many things, none of them anywhere close to "well". File sync on real computers works solidly if you have a reliable connection (don't get me started on Android).

Have you considered using a real media-hoster, like Jellyfin (or like a dozen others)? Jellyfin works fine for music (the are other music-only solutions though). There are plenty of clients that can stream, and have offline support (download a subset/albums/playlists) for things like laptops, phones, ... The server can usually transcode audio formats that a client can't play, in real-time, if needed.

Edit: I realize I wasn't clear as to what this means in practice. You essentially get a self-hosted Spotify. Your library, run from your server, optionally you can connect to it from anywhere.

Hey I got the same precision scale. Neat.

I actually have it installed on my desktops. It doesn't work on mobile and it doesn't work on thumbnail previews in lemmy either. Also the number of videos that actually have an alternative thumbnail is like 10%, at best.

I've also "gotten over it" by just not watching videos like this.

That thumbnail alone means "no, thanks".

Kinda wanted to pick the game up at some point. Weird, I seem to have suddenly lost all interest. Huh.

While I fully agree with the SSD side, you seem to ignore that HDDs are also getting cheaper per TB (always have, and usually quite noticeably). Also the reliability of large to huge SSDs remains to be seen as well. Obviously a breakthrough in HDD technology would have an influence as well, as you mentioned.

I'm not saying SSDs aren't here to take over, they surely will eventually (preferably sooner), but I think it'll be a few more years until we got actual price parity per TB. Even when ignoring other aspects like reliability.

Usually the information has to be public is the registering entity is a company, and can be private (and I think it's by default) if it's by an individual. It shouldn't be possible to have private company registrations. This of course depends on the TLD, but might have implications on some jurisdictions independent of that (like when using a site of any TLD inside the EU).

Is it feasible that there interceptor systems saw they weren't a threat from the trajectory and prioritized those that were? I mean the article states that they might have prioritized defending the city over the airbase, but I don't know how much manual decision making is likely to be involved as I don't know the flight/travel times. Or Maybe the defense system is has target areas pre-prioritized?

I mean a hole in a runway is somewhat inconvenient, but overall an easy fix. A destroyed hangar less so (but also depends on what's in it, if anything). Casualties in a city are a different category, obviously.

I've used windows since the 90s. Not once have I intentionally used WordPad.

It did open by default for some file types for a long time (.doc), usually mangling the content cause it couldn't actually handle them properly. I think it was also the default for .txt files at some point, causing many curse words when editing plain text files, that invisibly weren't so plain any more after... Programs expecting a configuration fine really don't like that sort of thing.

So: I'm very ok with this. Just install LibreOffice or something if you needa Word-like experience. Install notepad++ for anything "plain".

Scroll down a bit in this article. There's a list of what each of the available keys are required to provide. A "key" in this context is basically a notch in a certain location, which then defines the meaning of the various pins of the connector. Some devices have multiple keys, as some of the specifications have a common subset. Like key A+E is common, because E provides almost everything that A does, so a device that only requires the common interfaces can work in both. Cars that rely on one of the exclusive interfaces will have the specific key of course. This A+E communication is often used for WiFi cards.

Sockets always only have one key though, for obvious reasons.

Edit: correction/clarification

I actually have it on my wishlist. One of those games I wanted to play eventually. Had it on my wishlist now. Certain actions by companies make me lose interest.

There's enough good games out there. Can skip some based on company actions just fine.
