I literally got a tech support call last week asking, “How do I legally get MP3s to put on this new MP3 player I just got?” I was kinda stumped. “Umm… Rip a CD?”

Huh. Today I learned. I avoided snaps because Firefox snap took so dang long to load, and Firefox flatpak just launched…
Flatpaks: NOT Ubuntu’s containerized deliverable. They use snaps. Flatpaks are more Fedora’s thing. I know Mint uses flatpaks, and Silver blue relies heavily on them. Snaps v Flatpaks are like Coke v Pepsi. It’s all just sugar water, but people care, for reasons.
Tailscale: a VPN -esque service that lets you connect networks together in fun and interesting ways. For instance: I can use tailscale to access my home network from my phone!
Thank you, that was very nice! But I do love my car, too.
Prisencolinensinainciusol! That song rocks.
VROOOoooOOOMMM! Hee hee! I got a hybrid standard, and I will drive it until it literally falls apart (or I do.)
Feel free to ask questions if you have them. I am no expert, but I am willing to try to help if you get stuck.
I’ve got 10 hours in a little ultralight. Pre-diagnosis. I’m not looking to fly a jet fighter. I get more G’s in a hang glider.
See, and this is why… Except, again, I only faint standing up. Ever.
I will never be able to get a small engine private pilot license due to fainting, despite it literally never happening unless I’m standing up…
Guys… “sudo.” Four characters.
I have a Tiny connected to a startech dual USB drive dock. The drives get warm, but not deadly hot. Moving big files is a bit slow, but for streaming on Plex and Jellyfin it works fine.
I didn’t know anything about docker when I set up my NC years ago, so I ran it as a snap on bare metal. Man, it’s gotten so much better! It used to really suck. Like, simple file transfers just didn’t work half the time, so I’d be retrying the same thing over and over… A few years ago, I literally migrated it from bare metal to a VM, but kept the exact same install. I have so much crap on it now, I think I’ll never bother switching it out to docker, just because of the inconvenience. I know the snap version can just run using a local hostname, you just have to set it in trusted domains setting. Might be the same in the docker image?
When you said mechanical friend, I automatically thought of Johnny 5. I think I’m too old to be Internetting right now.
I use Gpoddersync to keep my phone and tablet in sync, but I have one podcast that keeps glitching out and redownloading over and over. Not sure why.
That article had 891 “partners”. Holy hell.
I would ask Randall Munroe!
Good to know! Legal, non-DRM? Do they have popular artists?
