with beet and hookers

I work on Jellyfin, but don’t like beets. Do I need to fork again?

“Software will be built by machines, directed by people.”

Oh my lord. Is this a delayed April Fools post?

Our lives are in the hands of product managers driving programming decisions.

Oh, sorry. I just realized I repeated what you said.

Hey, I know this software 😆

I love reading feel good news stories. 🤗

🤔 Technically, #1 could mean buy a new, other type of, device.

Nice!

🤘 Glad it was useful.

1. Listenbrainz isn’t owned by David Ellison.
2. Do I need a #2?

😆 That’s a good one!

😞 He doesn’t like our Roku client.

👋I personally find AI amoral, so I don’t use it.

Models trained on open source software, contribute nothing back to those software repos, give zero authorship to those original authors, and packaged up to sell back to us programmers.

Not to mention the resource impact of their massive data centers.

I don’t want anything to do with it.

And after 25 years of professional programming, this is increasingly looking like the hill I’m going to die on.

Ok, Cokie the Clown.

“works OK”

🤘 I’ll take it!

Roku provides us no method to know you exited the app. If you don’t press stop, pause, or back out of the video player and instead simply press Home, the server will think you’ve watched up to the end of your buffered amount of the video.

A mixed playlist is a playlist of mixed media. Movies, shows, audio, etc. all mixed together in a single playlist.

Once you get into it, it’s not that bad.

I liken it to the love child of Classic ASP and JavaScript.

🤔 …ok, maybe it is that bad.

🤘Enjoy

Roku only offers me shuffle in shows. Is there a way I can enable it in music

Want to shuffle play your entire music library?

On the home screen, move the cursor over the music library and press PLAY on your remote. It’ll play 2000 random songs.

What to shuffle play all songs by an artist?

Go to your music library and switch to one of the Artist views. Find the artist you want and press PLAY on your remote. It’ll play their songs in random order.

What to shuffle play a single album?

Go to your music library and switch to “Albums” view. Find the album you want and press * on your remote. Choose “Shuffle Play Album”

You can also do this with any album listed on the home screen.

Or, in the upcoming 3.1.0 release, I’ve added a Shuffle Play button as part of the redesign of the album screen.

and/or is there somewhere I could donate something small to your time to add a shuffle button to roku’s music client?

If you feel so inclined, donation links are at the top of my GH profile: https://github.com/1hitsong but money isn’t why I do this.

Which client were you using? Android? Roku? etc.
