I run a UNIVAC 1219B. It’s AWESOME!

SirShanova,

But imagine the controversy a government would receive broadcasting various kinds of content. People deride the BBC as a mouthpiece of whichever party is in power despite immense work making it as impartial as possible

SirShanova,

And then we get into the weeds of how do we decide who gets grants? I’m a fairly enthusiastic watcher of Linus Tech Tips, and he discusses that the entertainment tax grants the Canadian Government gives out are so complex that only the largest companies (the ones who do not need the grants) can hire people to navigate the bureaucracy for the tax breaks. Is choosing artists going to be an America’s Got Talent competition? A random draw? What source do we get viewer/listener numbers from?

I would love to resume the federal government’s artist programs like under the New Deal, but the reality is that our culture is more niche and divided than ever. Rather than swing and jazz being unquestionably dominant for music in the days of yore, now we’d have to check and verify every SoundCloud rapper, YouTube artist, and pop-megastar.

SirShanova,

I’m unfortunately not very familiar with the BBC other than Top Gear and some of their fabulous documentaries. Thank you for the insight!

SirShanova,

Really interesting information! It’s a shame that they’re not as trusted as I thought in Europe, I revere their short-wave long range news broadcast worldwide. It’s an absolute tragedy Associated Press doesn’t do the same

SirShanova,

No Windows server solutions? Synapse has Docker but I’ve had a hell of a time getting it up on my Win Server 2016 install.

SirShanova,

Looks pretty good, would be perfect if the fries were slightly crispier but c’est la vie

SirShanova,

Finally, someone who gets me! My windows installs turn into such gargling abominations with all the customization I force into them that I could never relearn (before I retire) how to do all the stuff I can on windows in Linux.

Any alternatives to Google Photos?

I’m starting my degoogling journey (mostly looking into the various options at hand) and I was wondering what hood alternatives to Goohle Photos is there? I’m specifically wondering about a service that would double both as a cloud storage and a gallery with a timeline and such. But currently it’s only cloud storage backup...

SirShanova,

How does it compare to Photoprism when it comes to image recognition?

SirShanova,

Before Apple went ARM, they weren’t perfect, but they weren’t the worst. You could swap RAM on iMacs, change out storage on Mac Minis. But as they adopted ARM, RAM was incorporated into the SoC. And while poor for interoperability, there are notable performance improvements in this system-in-a-package design. More so, they do allow for some storage upgrades with the current Mac Mini and Mac Studio, even if it’s still somewhat user-hostile.

As for the charging question at hand, yeah…they probably WANTED something stupid like they did with MFi certification on lightning cables, but it seems as though the EU has already warned them about that. Hopefully we’ll end up with a pretty nice usb-c experience!

SirShanova,

My dude, “”””enriching”””” is a strong word

SirShanova,

Bro this sauce is something to everyday carry. I could eat anything with it!

SirShanova,

I was originally skeptical that a Barbie could melt in the sun, but then I saw the word Arizona in the caption and am now fully convinced this is realistic

SirShanova,

Yeah like, cmon, what do you think the pyramid sits on. On the floor??? No, on the holiest of of foosball tables!

SirShanova,

I don’t know if the visually impaired know what the me at a wedding meme looks like.

Alt text: A man in pajamas, looking disheveled and unkempt, captioned “any important occasion ever”, while the same man smiling and well groomed in a suit captioned “ethoslab mcc day”

SirShanova,

All good mate, I could have been clearer.

Cheers!

SirShanova,

20 hours later, I hope you had a great sleep and are having a fantastic evening!

SirShanova,

Bro, this is AWESOME. I’ll look into them more and inevitably come back and ask you some more stuff!
