  • How to Rip from a DVD on old Hardware

    Jump

  • MakeMKV has worked well for me. I was using it on a 10 year old PC until I recently upgraded.

  • Why don't cars have a way to contact nearby cars like fictional spaceships do?

  • This guy gets it.

  • Imagine the giant trucks road raging because you’re in the left lane and only going +20 the speed limit. Or the old creeps hitting on teenagers.

    What if we instead imagine the truck drivers politely asking you to move over? What if the ability to communicate freely with other drivers made the experience closer to walking in a crowd. I'm imagining something that allows all vehicles within a certain radius to hear one another so you can communicate with courtesy. I think a lot of road rage stems from our frustrations with our inability to communicate (and be held accountable) by the people around us.

  • Are there good Movies, TV Shows, Anime, with wholesome family (particularly parent-child) relations?

    Jump

  • Netflix's Lost in Space.

  • Tell me there are no women in your life without saying there are no women in your life.

  • It seems the only data provided about the demographics and political leanings of the fandom are anecdotal accounts from social media. Do you think it ever occurred to the author that they might just have an algorithm that recognizes their preference for shitty content?

    does Reddit block my connection because i use a VPN?

  • If you use the browser extension on Firefox it will do this automatically.

    It's only a matter of time until Ozempic buys the naming rights to the Olympics.

  • My first jellyfin setup

    Jump

  • You're correct. The Fire Stick would be a client. I currently use a Pi 4 as my server and it works great, but I use KODI instead of jellyfin. This means that nothing trys to transcode when I use it. However, my brother is able to connect to my server through Tailscale and he does some sort of GPU pass thru with a jellyfin container and as far as I know it works great.

  • If you're looking for mini PC recommendations, I have been very happy with my Beelink Ser8. It was chosen specifically for handbrake encoding and is an order of magnitude faster than my underpowered decade old desktop.

    Edit. I just reread your post saying that you don't want to buy a mini PC so disregard that advice but if you want to stream to TVs on a budget, I am a big fan of the Fire Stick. If you get them on sale, they're usually available for half the listed price (about $25 when I got them). You can get them on ebay if you don't want to support Bozos. Currently they're very easy to configure and they work great as long as you can get over the clunky menu design.

  • You may want to check out https://www.thewebernets.com/ blog posts. I use some of the recommend setups for my movies and most look great, but I do use subtitles which I think he mostly skips in his setups.

  • I am just some rando but I think this poster may have meant tinymediamanager as opposed to tinymusicmanager. I use tinymediamanager and it's great.

  • Mm hmm

  • The Daily Beast uses "Hot Mic" in a headline to describe someone saying things with a microphone in a known public place into known records

    Jump

  • This guy thinks they had 100 FBI agents scrub diaper's name from the files because he was a whistle blower? Surely the best way to prove his valiant role in this ordeal is to release the unredacted files, right?

  • [UPDATE: Fake] They made his car "cease & desist"

    Jump

  • Totally reasonable. I wish every electronic device would brick itself if it heard you talking shit about it. People are too rude to toasters.

  • Microplastics will be the "boomers all have lead poisoning" of millennials

  • I'm crazy. Mark My Words. In 20 years, we'll have so many microbes capable of consuming plastic people will be bitching about their packages not being able to effectively protect their goods from spoiling. The goldfish has spoken.

  • Both District of Columbus and Colombia are named after Cristobal Colon (Christopher Columbus) Does anyone know why they're spelled differently?

    Jump

  • It's because people associate colons with butt holes.

  • Can anyone recommend an extraordinarily comfortable reclining couch, in a mid-range price. It doesn't have to last me a lifetime but if I could get 10 years out of it, I think that would be fine

    Jump

  • Lay-z-boy might be worth a look. I don't have a couch but I have several reclining chairs. They've all held up well for 10 years and then some.

  • What is your favorite episode of Bill Nye the Science Guy?

  • People that do this are inviting you to join the call. Announce yourself and ask what the caller is wearing.

  • Supposing Stargate technology exists, you could conceivably control an entire galaxy, but that is proposing the existence of technology incompatible with our best understanding of the universe. Realistically the solar system will probably be the limit of my empire.
