FWIW, I’ve been using Music Assistant with my Sonos speakers without issue.

HOWEVER, I’m using MA as part of Home Assistant, and have the speakers configured through HA, not MA. MA just sees the speakers as HA Media Players. That works really well.

Tails I think

Isn’t this about fake trailers for movies that do not exist? It’s not reinterpreting art, it’s producing slop and trying to bait people into giving you views.

Yep. They changed her pretty drastically from the way she is in the books (which was probably a good idea), but way, WAY overcorrected. I also don’t really like the actor for the role, but that is secondary.

Fair. Don’t take this as pressure to watch this. But for what it’s worth, “Harry Potter but horny” is exactly what I grew tired of after S1, and they drop that hook pretty thoroughly.

S2-5 is more like “there’s no such thing as a chosen one. We’re all just fucked up in different ways, and the only way to get meaningful change done is if we try to be better, together - regardless of if we ever manage to grow past that damage”.

Except Alice. Fuck Alice, she never not sucks.

The Magicians? Do yourself a favor and continue on (well… Depending on where you stopped, I guess.) To me, Season 1 is a difficult sell. It’s all over the place, and some of the characters are… Not super likeable, ahem. Season 2 gets much better, and season 3+ are my favorite seasons of television, ever.

Almost 9k lunes of python in a bash script. Lmao. No.

nixpkgs is the largest repo, period.

Don’t forget the almighty:

journalctl -fu <servicename>

And yes, I am always reading that as “fuck you, service”.

Yeah, but unfortunately, the keyboard does not look promising.

I’m sure we will get there, eventually. Just an uphill battle… As always.

Hardware wise, we’re basically there. Especially since there’s multiple recently-ist mainstream phones on which you can install Linux.

UI/UX seems to be a nightmare though, plus missing software

Company went “here’s your budget for ordering a laptop. Put on it whatever you want”, and so there’s NixOS running on it :)

(To be fair though: small-ish, tech focused company)

Awesome haha. ALmost exact same setup here, incl. OpnSense with an isolation vlan in which (brother) printer and TV are.

Came here for this

You had me cracking up at

parses HTML with regex

I only use the Nvidia Shield remote. It obviously does everything on the Shield, plus tv on/off, and volume. Then I remapped the Netflix button on it to open a little quick actions menu to select brightness/picture mode levels.

Haven’t touched the lg remote since

Incredible. What a shit idea.

Anyways, kids, remember: never let your smart devices talk to the internet. We actually love our LG OLED - it’s fantastic hardware. But it has not once, and never will, get the chance to phone home.

My favorite math joke to this day is:

How many math professors does it take to change a lightbulb?

The answer is trivial and left as an exercise to the reader.

Have fun! I moved to nix on my personal laptop 2 years ago, and now my config is 21k lines long and manages ~35 devices :)

The diagram very clearly shows there’s another Alternative…
