Yeah, it took me about that long to get my regular websites working right too. And then i had to reinstall for unrelated reasons and all that customisation was gone.
The wife and I are getting older. We have been working for decades at this point. But we are too young to retire, and we had kids late.

Anything on usajobs.gov that you can message your resume into matching will do a good job of having good benefits, relatively low stress, and average pay.
Don't use the builder on the website; it breaks and makes your resume illegible sometimes. Do look into what a federal resume has to look like in order to work.
I think that this video has helped me develop some insight on how to spot high-masking autism, not just among women. I found a lot of the material covered in the video relatable even though I am male. Maybe that has something to do with our elevated rejection of established gender roles as a whole. Regardless, I like how...
Launching a program from cli is a basic first troubleshooting step, davinci resolve being such a big program means a bug will happen at some point.
Fat being a bitch to deal with is old news.
Flatpack password prompt problem was easily verified with google. So was popos missing a paint application by default. Same with rocky 9 kernal paremeters being changed in grub.
Ignoring the part of this where the context makes no sense for a satire post, why would you assume your experience, being a positive one, would be the same as everyone else?
So you're saying that using a desktop shortcut makes an app inherently less buggy? wtf
Obviously not. Now i'm wondering if you're fucking with me. Running a program through the console lets you see the debug log it spits out when it fails to run.
So in your mind I'm going to google a list of 10 random weird issues?
No, but I was hoping you'd put in a little more effort before jumping straight to conclusions.
That was a choice, an easily fixed one, and everyone's definition of "basic apps" will vary a bit so this was a stretch to list as a "problem".
Can't say i disagree, but i'm not in the habit of invalidating other people's gripes because i think theyre kinda petty either.
Well firstly, I tend to have a lot more weird issues than others. Secondly, I've tried a few different distros on two different graphics cards. And thirdly, I've been dealing with hardware and software issues for 25 years so when someone comes in hot like that with a bunch of rare issues/non-issues/issues I've never heard of, I tend to think that at best they are exaggerating because they are mad about something. And no, I don't assume everyone has the same experience.
I've got less experience than that, having started 15 years ago instead of 25. Clearly that makes your opinion inherently better than mine. /s
This list of problems was a direct answer to someone asking for a list of problems. Sometimes, people just need to vent about their favorite thing. No need to get onto them for it.
Nah. Dishwashers use about three gallons for a single wash. Im saving water when i run it with more than four dishes in it. That happens every other night.
I cannot stand google news any more, too much spam, clickbait and advertisement. So I decided to try to selfhost an RSS aggregator to make myself a news feed that I would be comfortable with. Being RSS such an "ancient" thing I thought there will be many mature systems, but I'm not sure that's the case.....
Both. How quickly a server can send a webpage with images (even if they're small) is directly proportional to the storage mediums seeks times. The worse the seek times, the less 'responsive' a website feels. Hard drives are a terrible location to keep your metadata.
The server scan will search for the files, look them up and grab metadata, and then store that metadata in the metadata location. If your metadata location is the same spot as your movie, it will cause some major thrashing, and will significantly increase the scan time for jellyfin. Essentially, it gets bogged down trying to read and write lots of tiny files on the same drive, the absolute worst case scenario for a hard drive to have.
If the movies are on a hard drive, and the metadata on an ssd (or even just a different hard drive) the pipeline will be a lot less problematic.
I have a collection of about ~110 4K Blu-Ray movies that I've ripped and I want to take the time to compress and store them for use on a future Jellyfin server....
God no. X264 is way worse than x265 is way worse than av1 for quality by size.
Yes, everything made in the past 15 years can do x264, but that does not mean it is a good idea. Only do x264 if you have a specific device that needs it. Otherwise, x265 is a better choice for long term storage.
I did a comparison trying to find where my personal "good enough" and techinically indistinguishable crf levels were at a little while ago. It may be worth looking into as a start. I've never really touched hdr before though.
Skipping the audio encode from a blu-ray will lose op out on a surprisingly large amount of space, especially with 110 source disks. I checked one of my two hour blu-ray backups. Audio will net you about nine audio tracks (english, french, etc). A single 5.1 448kbs audio track will take about 380MB of space per movie. Multiply that by nine (the number of different tracks in my sample choice) and you'll get 3420MB per disk. That means about 376GB of space is used on audio alone for ops collection. A third of a terabyte. You can save a lot of space by cutting out the languages you don't need, and also by compressing that source audio to ogg or similar.
By running the following ffmpeg command; ffmpeg -i out-audio.ac3 -codec:a libvorbis -qscale:a 3 small-audio.ogv
I got my 382MB source audio track down to 200MB. Combine that with only keeping the language you need, and you end up dropping from 376GB down to 22GB total.
You can likely save even more space by skimping on subtitles. They're stored as images, so they take up a chunk of space too.
Tl:dw; She's a social person and cobol is an antisocial type of job, there's nothing wrong with the cobol job industry as a whole, and it's generally an incredibly stable position to have.
microblog post by Callum Stephen, usernam @autistic_callum_: someone: *does something horrible* autistic me: no worries! its all good! autistic me to myself a few days later: woah, that was not ok. i cant beleive i let them get away with that. my delayed processing! is it too late, inconsistant and/or odd to revoke me "no worries"?
When you spend your formative years trying to 'fit in' (like most autistic people) you quickly learn that standing up for yourself is a failure in your attempts to not stand out. Those chidhood habits are incredibly hard to unlearn.
This meme isn't an exclusive trait for autistic people, just one that many autistic people struggle with.
