Major version changes for any software from the OS right down to a simple notepad app should update as sequentially as possible (11>12>13>etc). Skipping over versions is just asking for trouble, as it’s rarely tested throughly.

It might work, but why risk it.

An example: if 12 makes a big database change but you skip over that version, 13 may not recognize the databases left by 11 because 12 had the code to recognize and reformat the old database while that code was seen as unnecessary and removed from 13.

Stuff like this is also why you can’t always revert to an older version while keeping the data/databases from the newer software.

That’s very subjective.

Both platforms have the option for mods to tell you exactly what you did wrong; and on both, sometimes they utilize that option sometimes they don’t.

It’s entirely up to the individual mods in each specific community.

Lemmy does generally tend to be a bit more open; just because it’s a growing platform looking to expand its userbase, so the mods make a bit more of an effort to create peace/understanding vs just ban hammering any problems into oblivion.

Reddits grown big enough that it can throw its weight around a bit carelessly and have less worry of the userbase collapsing.

That’s terrible, sorry to hear you have disturbing dreams like that regularly.

I don’t really remember much of these, but I do occasionally get dreams that mix a bunch of odd details from my life in semi-plausible ways. These usually fade pretty fast though.

Things like family+friends that have never met having dinner together, or working with new coworkers at some old job they don’t/haven’t worked at.

For a while I was having dreams with one common theme; I could fly, by holding my breath. Kind of like controlling your buoyancy while swimming; hold a deep breath and you float/rise more, breath out and you sink.

In all sorts of different settings; flying around the planet, flying around my city/town, flying around inside a store or warehouse.

Lateral movement varied; sometimes I’d have to push off of things, othertimes I just sort of leaned and willed myself in a direction and I’d move that way. Just always that common theme; hold breath to float up, breath out to sink. It didn’t feel like I was swimming either; no drag like pushing yourself through water, paddling/swinging my arms as if to swim is the same as swinging your arms around in normal air.

Dreams are strange places.

Lol, good of him to mow your lawn for you I guess

I had a cat pass away from a fight with a neighbour cat when I was a kid.

It happened late at night, nobody found him until morning and by then there was nothing you could do. :(

Last time we allowed a family cat outdoors.

I haven’t had one in a while (actually, since I broke up with my ex a couple months ago… funny that realization I just had.)

It’s always interesting the connections we make.

I’ve been trying to think of anything in my life the last month or two that would trigger something like odd dreams, but I haven’t been able to come up with much. They seem random. It’s especially wierd that I still remember them days/weeks later, that just doesn’t happen with me.

I appreciate you sharing :)

I’ve definitely noticed my attention span is rather slim in recent years.

I quite frequently start a youtube video, then move to Picture-in-Picture so I can scroll lemmy or browse forums at the same time. It’s like one thing at a time isn’t enough anymore.

That’s not a simple question to answer.

The electrician will have to fish wire through the walls between the new outlet and the panel.

Depending on the construction and the specific path, they may only have to cut a couple small holes and feed wire between them, or they may have to cut several to get past studs and navigate obstacles; but generally they shouldn’t need to open the entire wall/path*. There will definitely be some cutting, it just depends on the job how much exactly.

Retrofitting new circuits can be super quick and easy, or it can be a massive headache. It’s varies quite a bit.

* Specifically with stud+drywall construction. These types of walls have a cavity inside where you can feed wires through easily. The UK for example uses a lot of masonry and plaster to make solid interior walls. With these types of walls there’s not much choice but to carve a channel in the wall, then plaster over it later.

Typical piracy requires you to search sources/indexers yourself, decide on the best search result for what you’re trying to download, pass that to your download client, then manually name and sort the downloaded files into media folders once the download completes.

The arr’s automate this entre process for several media types (movies, tv, music, etc), combining search results from dozens of indexers to make its decision on what to download.

Now, I open a webpage, search for a movie/show (results from imdb) and select an item I want to watch. ~15min later, that item has been found, downloaded, and sorted into my media folders where Emby/Jellyfin can display it to myself or friends.

Add on to this with Ombi, a requests platform that allows my friends+family to request media and have the arrs automatically grab it. Since setting that up a little over a year ago, it’s filled almost 400 requests (not including media I’ve grabbed/requested myself) without me having to manually manage requests ever.

Ontop of grabbing media on request, the arr’s also monitor the sources you’ve configured, watching for new uploads, and grabbing content that’s missing from your library but monitored for, such as: newly aired episodes, media that couldn’t be found earlier, or upgrades in quality for existing media (if configured/allowed to upgrade existing media).

Every time a new episode airs for a show I’ve added, it automatically grabs it for me. (currently 486 series monitored here)

That’s a neat little tool that seems to work pretty well. Turns out the files I thought I’d need it for already have embedded OCR data, so I didn’t end up needing it. Definitely one I’ll keep in mind for the future though.

That works magnificently. I added -l so it spits out a list of files instead of listing each matching line in each file, then set it up with an alias. Now I can ssh in from my phone and search the whole collection for any string with a single command.

Thanks again!

Interesting; that would be much simpler. I’ll give that a shot in the morning, thanks!

Yeah, your home server is still able to reach plex.tv so there’s no problem there.

It’s people actually hosting there that got screwed over.

Plex blocked Hetzner IPs, so servers hosted there can’t reach plex.tv to auth users or validate plex pass.

DNS-01 is in the pipeline at least, so hopefully we’ll see that bring wildcard certs along with it.

It’s nice to see this being integrated into nginx. I’ve been using ACME.sh for around a decade instead. It just triggers through a script on a crontab schedule grabbing a new cert via DNS-01 if necessary, then refreshing nginx to recognize the new file.

Did anyone call him out for this during the meeting?

There’s a public comment section, right? Straight up ask why he feels it’s appropriate be deciding matters of public saftey while actively endangering the public himself by distracted driving during this very meeting.

They work great until someone drops it and bends the frame. As soon as there’s misalignment it’s becomes frustrating garbage.

Working warehousing, I bought my own and tethered it to my push cart because every one in the building kept getting destroyed by other employees.

Marketing for the rapper, not for Tesla.

Until this; I’d never heard of that rapper, and this drove lots of people to at least find the song that supposedly led to the C&D/stranding(real or not).

And everyone is just like “that’s totally something they would do! Lol”… What?

Keep in mind pretty much everyone on this platform already hates Tesla and does not nor would they own a Tesla vehicle. There’s also a certain ‘you got what you deserve by buying that’ kind of attitude towards Tesla owners.

This is behaviour we expect from this shit company and it doesn’t directly effect any of us commenting on it. We just get to point and laugh (for now).

The discussion might be a little different if it was a less expected brand like IKD, Audi. But who’s to say for sure; there’s been a lot of ‘cattle’ behaviour lately.

almost nothing else…? Cmon OP, you’ve gotta elaborate there. What ended up taking a swim with the turd stick?
