Same. Nana Visitor could play one hell of a Space Siobhan.

Same - I don’t shame anyone for not doing it, but I do try to call out/praise when it’s done and/or done exceptionally well. Hopefully that helps.

Ah, gotcha. I wasn’t factoring in Soap Operas, just the prime-time stuff I grew up with. You’re probably correct.

I’m not quite as old as my old TV references make me out to be, but random thought: Was she TV’s first cougar?

Then join an instance where scores are disabled if you don’t like them. :shurg: Choosing an instance where downvotes are disabled is already a preference, so making the score aggregates optional is completely in line with that.

You’re already on .ml, so they’d have them disabled given it’s run by the devs who have removed the data from the API, so nothing would change for you.

The whole shtick of Lemmy is run your instance the way you want to run it. The removal of the scores from the API seems heavy-handed and feels like the devs are forcing their preferences/values on others.

Sure doesn’t seem like it. I went to a lot of effort to make the best of the mod API calls that are available and they go and remove a useful chunk of it. 😒

Not sure what’s going on with lemm.ee. The admin there used to be active in the admin chats but hasn’t been around much at all lately. I know he mentioned he got laid off from the startup company he was working for, and that’s when he mostly disappeared (he’s responded to @'s a few times so he’s still around). Maybe he’s just busy with job hunting or his new job doesn’t afford him much time for Lemmy?

    Depends on the UI.

    In the feed, or rather the API endpoint that populates the feed, it is up to the client to combine duplicate; there’s no cross post data attached to the post objects until you click into a post.

    Latency is low enough to not be noticeable when playing video on my laptop and streaming audio to the desktop.

    That’s basically my use case. Want to use my HTPC as the source and some RasPi’s or repurposed thin clients as the sinks - pretty much what I do now with MPD and Snapcast. I absolutely do not want to have to mess with audio offset settings in Emby to keep the dialog in sync. lol

    I’ve only skimmed the docs (holidays are a huge time sink haha), but do you know if it can do one-to-many or just one-to-one? Like, can I have one source and multiple receivers? The docs seemed to imply it could do one-to-many, but I didn’t get to dive into them deep enough.

    Ooh. I’ve been using Snapcast for my multi-room audio, but this seems more versatile. Going to check it out for sure.

    Have you used it? Curious about latency. Snapcast has about a 1 second buffer which makes it not ideal for anything beyond music casting.

    What? You didn’t like “Boot Scootin’ Moogie”? /s

    First time I checked back there since the schism, and yeah, you’re 100% right. lol

    I get most of mine from the grocery store. When they’re on sale, they’re usually almost half off, so I buy several and stock up.

    I’ll show you mine:

    Oh, I didn’t mean it was perfect, just acceptable. lol

    I’m still holding out for a streaming mini-series that is a 1:1 adaptation of the book. I just can’t let that dream go.

    I’ve seen Voyager 3 times and never noticed they had alt pips. Wow. 🤦🏻‍♂️

    If you’re looking to hire a private investigator, you should…call someone else. I’m not that observant apparently.

    Convoy by C.W. McCall is my go-to “fine if I have to karaoke” song. Fairly short, no long instrumental breaks, it’s fun, and absolutely no one sees it coming.

    “They should make more movies out of country songs”.

    [Earl, Joy, and Randy proceed to sing the chorus to Convoy]

    Probably the greatest gag in My Name is Earl.

    As someone who has been on both sides of a helpdesk interview, 99.5% of the time a tie is overkill. OP looks dressed for the job, and that’s usually what they’re looking for.

    ptz,
    @ptz@dubvee.org avatar

    Sounds about right. lol

    For my first helpdesk job interview, the recruiter sent the wrong information in the interview packet. The dress code she sent said “business formal” so I went in all suited and tied. Looked like I was interviewing for CEO. The managers interviewing me were wearing jeans and polo shirts.
