Ah yes, thanks, edited. Using a new keyboard and the autocorrect is still learning.

You already have Jellyfin, maybe test out adding a music library and using Finamp or Fintunes to access it?

I don't think those speakers are capable of voice. They can handle a few different beep tones and that's about it. The song was not like listening to Spotify, it was played using beep tones.

I mean I guess you are supposed to take it to your computer repair shop and tell them it won't stop playing Für Elise, and the shop is supposed to recognise it as a failure of CPU fan signal. If it just beeped a few times on startup then people would ignore it, and if it beeped constantly then well maybe Für Elise is nicer.

Super impressive since we used to play Quake 2 all day on it!

Are you trying to make me feel old?

Haha I remember the days of downloading random EXEs off the internet and running them to see what they do (also the days of CD-rom drives).

My auntie somehow managed to get a virus that played Für Elise through the motherboard speaker and never stopped so long as the thing was on. I don't think they ever solved it, in the end they just got a new PC.

And I think this video is talking about scrum implemented poorly. But admittedly that's the only way I've seen it done 😐

Lemmy has algorithms, it's just that they aren't designed to maximise profit.

If you have the sort type set to Hot, posts are ranked based on score (upvotes minus down votes) with a decay based on post time. Active is the same but based on the last comment time.

If you are on the website, there is a ? next to the sort option that will take you to a page explaining how the different options work.

But long story short, most sorting options are affected by down votes.

Would it be actual wax paper? These days it could just as likely be coated with plastic rather than wax, as the plastic coatings do the same thing and are cheaper.

I've just spent a while searching and can't find any reliable way to tell whether paper is wax coated, oil coated, plastic coated, or silicone coated.

How come the apps are controlling your keyboard? Shouldn't it use your phone's selected keyboard?

Dave , to Lemmy.world Support in Why does deleting a post not actually delete it?
@Dave@lemmy.nz avatar

If a post is marked as deleted, it's only visible to you. You can undelete it if you want to.

When your account is deleted, it is removed permanently (as permanently as it can be when federation is involved).

@Dave@lemmy.nz avatar

If you go on the web ui and look where the sort option is, there's a little ?. Click it and it will explain the sorting options.

Many instances use Active as the default, which is based on latest comment. However, it's also based on the score, so if you are spamming or people don't like your post you'll get down voted (or no one will upvote) and then it won't hit the front page even when sorted by Active.

Does the solar power the speaker and the turbine is the power generation? Does this turbine produce more power than the solar powering the speaker?
