They don’t even mention applications for the blind. A tactile display would be game changing.

MakeMKV has worked well for me. I was using it on a 10 year old PC until I recently upgraded.

You’re correct. The Fire Stick would be a client. I currently use a Pi 4 as my server and it works great, but I use KODI instead of jellyfin. This means that nothing trys to transcode when I use it. However, my brother is able to connect to my server through Tailscale and he does some sort of GPU pass thru with a jellyfin container and as far as I know it works great.

If you’re looking for mini PC recommendations, I have been very happy with my Beelink Ser8. It was chosen specifically for handbrake encoding and is an order of magnitude faster than my underpowered decade old desktop.

Edit. I just reread your post saying that you don’t want to buy a mini PC so disregard that advice but if you want to stream to TVs on a budget, I am a big fan of the Fire Stick. If you get them on sale, they’re usually available for half the listed price (about $25 when I got them). You can get them on ebay if you don’t want to support Bozos. Currently they’re very easy to configure and they work great as long as you can get over the clunky menu design.

You may want to check out https://www.thewebernets.com/ blog posts. I use some of the recommend setups for my movies and most look great, but I do use subtitles which I think he mostly skips in his setups.

I am just some rando but I think this poster may have meant tinymediamanager as opposed to tinymusicmanager. I use tinymediamanager and it’s great.

Guess that makes Bill Maher the exception that proves the rule.

The report also found students were “reluctant to speak their minds, especially on controversial political issues”, with many admitting that “they self-censor regularly, avoid certain topics entirely, and doubt their administrators would defend free expression if controversy struck”.

I would be relectant to speak my mind in that situation too. Everything is recorded and uploaded now. Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.

I am pretty sure my Mom have me a copy of Dare to Discipline when my kids were preschool age. I never actually considered reading it though.

You could probably name any race from Trek and justify them as Gorn food.

I don’t see how any democratic government can force civilians to work if they’re unwilling to do so. The word for that is slavery.

This screws up the acronym I’m cooking up.

• Republicans
• Enable
• Pedophiles
• Undermine
• Basic
• Liberties
• Ignore
• Constitutional
• Accountability
• ??? I’d rather my acronym be discarded than those files, assuming the turds comply with the subpoena. What’s the penalty if they don’t?

Is this something that can be reversed in a subsequent administration or something we will be stuck with if the rebublicants dont steal the next election?

There was a time when I thought Gillibrand was good people but that was a long time ago.

You should have them really show their commitment by having them sign up for foster kids at the same time as registering this hot take.

I kinda like escape goat.

Why? A majority of people support doing more to address climate change but the powers that be don’t represent the interests of anyone except the people that are actively trying to make it worse.
