Yeah, I had/have problems with Jellyfin transcoding too.

Basically transcoding things that didn’t need it and wouldn’t transcode things that did need it.

I really like this one.

Just like I never called french fries freedom fries, I will never call the gulf of mexico the gulf of america

A lot (if not most) of vr games can be played seated though.

Sure you might technically still be moving around but it’s easy enough on you that most people - even grandma, could play.

So I don’t see that as a barrier to mainstream.

Any disposable I’ve bought that doesnt have a recharge port the battery was dead with at least 20% ejuice remaining.

At best they are pretty much useless for employees, at worst they are as dangerous as managment.

No it doesn’t, at least not everwhere.

If you wanna be an idoitic asshat, and get all pissy because someone points out a flaw in your argument, thats not my problem.

“Don’t buy games with invasive user-side anti-cheats that hamper performance, and demand refunds on any game…”

1st point: AC Wasn’t there at purchase

2nd point: AC was added decades later so how can one return the game?

So sorta like the imaginarium of Dr. parnissius? ( its called something along those lines lol)

It’s just like every other ‘sandbox’ game out there.

About the only substance is in the early game. Then there isnt much to do but grind out a checklist to collect everything.

It gets repetitive too fast.

It would all depend on the hired killer. Even the most horrible of people tend to have a ‘code’ they will follow.

Yes, but no at the same time.

New testing methods, new ‘ingredients’ to test interactions with and so on require reconfirmation of ‘known’ science.

Yeah, I think microplatics are whats gonna kill us (well besides climate change).

It’s just gonna keep building up in our systems and the environment until critacal mass.

If you want another good example of positive ‘capitalism’ check out Sam Reich and Dropout.

His father is Robert Reich (Former Secretary of Labor).

Sam is expanding Dropout at a sustainable rate. since its founding it’s had only one or 2 price hikes bringing the cost from like 3.99 to 5.99.

And they weren’t just arbitrary hikes. We got a lot of new content as a result.

He takes care of his employees. And more importantly he cares about his employees as people.

In regards to another reply, there are multiple options of dealing with duplicates in calibre. From merging to deleting them.

It’s been a while since I had to do any library setup with calibre and Im kinda confused by what you are saying with “but it duplicates files when importing in a different drive where I don’t want ebooks”

Do you have multiple libraries in calibre?

Are you using multiple library managers?

Why not just use calibres folder structure?

And also if you don’t know about it - mobileread forums has been around a long time and has a whole section on calibre where you could probably get more specific help.

Shhhhhh

The eating issue is less evolution and more societal.

Society is the one who says we should eat 3 meals a day, not evolution.

Evolution would rather we ate more often throughout the day.

Think of it like a gas tank. Currently people fill it up and wait for it to get empty before filling up again.

When the reality is its better to always keep a half a tank for emergencies.

I’d argue we should be ‘grazing’ more. Not just accept feeling bad.

I think we eat too much in one sitting. It should be spread out more.

Every couple hours we should be adding energy to our reserves not waiting 6+ hours.

Pretty easy honestly. Pick the frames you like, enter in your prescription, choose lens options like transitions/anti glare then pay and you get em in a couple days to a couple weeks depending.

Just like anything else shop around - some of the “cheap” online places still charge a ridiculous amount.

Name brand doesn’t mean much either - for example - generic transition lens coating works just as well as the name brand stuff for most applications for a fraction of the price.

I buy my glasses cheap off the internet and wear em till they are broken. They last me years and I’ve never had any coatings come off like this.

I am now super curious if it’s something OP did, or if it’s a processing error (maybe technician put the coatings on in the wrong order) or what.
