My TCL has been going strong for 8 years now. I’ll stand behind supporting That Cheap Life.

Yeah! I’ve loved watching Gothem Chess’ videos on these. Always have been good for a laugh.

Lmao! 🤣 that made me spit!!

I will never forgive Fitbit. I had one of their watches some years back that shit the bed about 1 week after the warranty was up. Their customer service suggested I just buy a new watch.

And that I did but it certainly wasn’t a Fitbit.

Looks are deceiving lol. This was a rare tender moment.

Dang. I thought Twitter was bigger than Reddit for some reason.

Am I weird to think that the fediverse will eventually succumb to enshitification in its own ways? As in, if it does pick up then any easy to sign up and popular instances will have a certain concentration of power and if they try to cater to the masses, they might just end up becoming their own silos if defederated from other instances en masse.

I’m just kinda posting here to air some thoughts. I’m sure I’m not the first to think about this and of course I understand this is a feature not a bug.

Yeah I never truly resolved the proper permission settings - tried to understand and research and figure it out even though I’m a complete Linux newb.

My workaround was figuring out that I can mount the drive in the Plex directory and it finally could see the media. I had to override the default behavior when Unbuntu auto mounts it to a specific directory when you plug the HDD in while the OS is running.

I’m just now getting into it. Set up a laptop with Ubuntu running Plex media server. Been taking some real baby steps watching basic Linux tutorials.

It did take me about 4 hours to figure out how to mount an ext HDD so that Plex would have proper permissions to find the media. It was very rewarding to finally frickin resolve that! I’m still gonna keep pecking away and learn as I go while watching I keep watching tutorials.

The exercise is only fun if you don’t know the snails location IMO

Very thoughtful and agreeable comment. Fuck any greedy landlords and corps for buying up properties and driving up housing costs, but landlords and rentals do need to exist for people who need temporary housing or aren’t in the position to buy.

Exploding heads I don’t even think exists on lemmy anymore. They moved to another platform.

No doubt but I find it strange there was no acknowledgment of their protest ending. They were very vocal and one of the biggest sub hold outs but now they just flipped the switch with no communication.

I can see it from my desktop when I am logged in.

Yeah I just checked as well and was about to post here about it. The pinned post that had been up for 20+ days is completely gone. Seems like things have been quietly shifted back to normal…

Well the join lemmy ad made it until the end at least

@over_clox@lemmy.world shared a link in this thread!

Very cool! Exactly what I was looking for! Thank you 🙏
