  • My TV doesn't have a Jellyfin app, only a Plex app. I'm not buying a new TV just to use my preferred media server, sadly :-(

  • I for one can't wait until Saruman can see my every move, watch me shower Isendaddy

  • ...Why must every single news story about anything happening anywhere in the world somehow be about the USA?

    I tire of constantly having America thrown in my face at every juncture, even when they're not relevant.

  • It'll be the same flat, cheap prescription price as all prescribed medication is though, so it doesn't really matter what it is or how it was produced.

    It's only countries like the USA that somehow get duped into paying wildly obese financial sums for cheap medicine. I feel for them.

  • Okay, going off the title to start with you're building a WiFi network, that's very cool (I'm guessing it's a mesh network), but will you connect it to the Internet too?

    That'd be more of a headline if so, then just building a WiFi network.

  • I've got her book by my bed, such a good read :-)

  • It bugs me that it's not sorted in order of most to least, but it's a very cool page regardless :-D

  • Damn,...you get responses?

  • oi turn that tap off

  • When was it banned?

    When I lived in the European Union we had surveillance cameras and microphones in all of our office spaces in the company I worked at.

  • I'm curious how they would convert this to be a functional Air Force One plane.

    That aircraft is disassembled and reassembled almost entirely on a regular basis to keep it in tip top shape and find sabotage and issues, etc.

    It's also equipped specially with military defences, and of course has an onboard suite of equipment and personnel to run a war from the sky, in air refuelling, etc etc.

    It's an EXTREMELY specialised version of that very reliable aircraft, is what I'm saying.

    How would they bring this new plane up to that standard, and why should they waste tax money on doing so? What's the benefit to the nation?

    It all seems ridiculous from the outside looking in. It seems that they're just trying to appease a stupid man who thinks like a dodgy car salesman, and thus is happy to accept big dumb bribes, always getting the worst end of a deal, when the smarter people play him over and over.

    ...no?

  • That road is huuuge!

    With lanes that wide it's amazing cars ever hit each other haha.

  • Hmm, can real users be tagged as bots? Surely they'd complain and have it fixed quite quickly?

    I saw this bot reply and just instinctively downvoted and blocked it, can't stand Reddit/Lemmy bots that don't serve a useful purpose (like unit conversion or haiku's) haha.

  • Yeah it's normal, it's one of the first things I ask or get asked when I meet new people online.

    It's cool to meet new people from all around the world, so knowing where someone's from is really interesting and gives people stuff to talk about too!

    Plus, it's very helpful, because once you know where someone's from you know their timezone, what sort of weather they deal with, you might have some insight into their culture etc to better ensure you don't offend them, or maybe you've visited or love something about their country so again you now have new things to talk about :-D

    Anyway yeah, similarly with wanting to know someone's age, location is often one of the first questions we as strangers ask each other in online conversation.

    Age is also super useful to know, are we talking to a 12 year old? A 20 year old? A 60 year old? Knowing their age will better inform us of how to have a positive and respectful conversation, it'll inform us of what part of their life there in and thus we can take guesses to their generational cultural norms and interests, if they're likely to have a career, or be married, or if they're likely still in education studying for their masters, etc etc.

    You don't need to know an EXACT age, just as you don't need to know an EXACT location, but "I'm in my 20s from England" is a more than appropriate response :-)

    Bottom line: Always trust your gut if someone seems weird online (especially if they're pushy for info you're unwilling to share), but don't assume they're weird just because they want to know some basic details like A/S/L 👍

  • Nano nano!

    drinks water with finger

  • Okay but how do u center a div in 2025

  • I dunno, that looks like the USA and their butter sucks, man. It's not even yellow, and they sell it in "sticks". I was so glad to find Kerrygold there.

    That's decent stuff that I use on the regular.
