We spend more on health care per person and have worse outcomes than any country in the global north.

That has a lot to do with privatizing all our medical facilities and wasting a ton of money through private insurance.

Agreed. I much prefer listening to full albums. Even stuff I bought a long time ago as a teenager for one song, I’ve enjoyed going back and listening to the complete album.

I burned a cd for niece a few months back. She was in awe. Surprisingly that spindle of CDRs that have been sitting in my attic for 20 something years still record just fine!

I also have ripped all my CDs as flacs and stream them with navidrome. Convenience is nice and beats syncing to an mp3 player.

I also have a raspberry pi hooked up to my stereo with an nfid reader and print out cards with album art. Just select the one you want, drop it on the reader, and the album plays.

Instead of disowning use exec or xdg-open

I thought it was Larry Ellison’s son that is about to own this?

Go to your local library. Many have a great selection on blu-ray and dvds. Having to select something from a shelf is way more enjoyable than the endless scroll of junk streaming services give you. I am now actually purposefully selecting movies and shows to watch and making time and effort to finish them instead of just streaming random stuff.

Plus you get commentaries and bonus features.

Well, Wayland forces client side decorations which I’ve never agreed with.

Surprisingly safari does, but you should still use Firefox (maybe there is an extension?)

The time on my phone changed.

At least give them a zip or jazz drive!

And in my library I actually know what version I have not some 2018 “remix”.

Same with my movie library. I can have theatrical and directors or unrated extended version.

Last year’s murder rate in Birmingham was caused by a single person known as the enforcer for a gang. He was finally caught and is being charged with 23 murders over an 18 month period! There are quite a few more he is suspected of!

Edit: fixed autocorrect changing murders to borders and nurses

During the Civil Rights movement, it wasn’t until TV started showing live the treatment from Bull Connor in Birmingham against African Americans that the mood of the nation started to change to be in favor of Civil Rights.

So yeah, more people need to see people being abducted harshly every damn day until this country finally says enough.

This is very, very early, and I am sure I will introduce breaking changes along the way that will require your music to be re-indexed (I’m not sure I’m happy with how I am normalizing all dimensions).

The server, boldaric, is available on github. This requires navidrome (or other subsonic compatible server). It will take a LONG time to index all your music, as it is doing heavy machine learning on it.

There is also early work on an iOS client, called Tor Jolan, also available on github. You can register for the beta on apple’s test flight

It just seems to me that we should require data centers to pay for new capacity on the grid using 100% renewable energy.

That would keep regular citizens for having to pay for the grid expansion, would help clean up the grid and move it forward, and all that investment in wind and solar would help bring the cost of renewables down. It would be a win for everyone.
