  I checked the source and I can’t find their full report or even their methodology.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are some FOSS programs that are objectively better than their proprietary counterparts?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Wino Mail is the closest drop-in replacement I’ve found for the old Windows 10 Mail app. It feels pretty similar.

  Am I mistaken that docker creates temporary volumes with a nondescript name and you can potentially dig up the volumes that were being used in /var/lib/docker/volumes?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft's many Outlooks are confusing users and employees⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I imagine Microsoft has the same problem as Google, which is internally prioritizing flashy new things over maintaining useful old things. That’s why Google comes out with so many new things and kills so many old things.

  If you want a raise/promotion/etc., you have a better shot at it by bragging about the new feature/service you launched than bragging about maintaining the relatively stable project that’s been running for years but could use some improvements.

  It’s a really bad structure imo and I hate that Google and other companies prioritize like that :/

  My server pc is just my old computer parts. Ryzen 3 2200G with with 6Gb of RAM. It gets the job done!

  Me when I didn’t read and comprehend the piece of writing I’m commenting on. The author literally talks about this and why essays specifically are an important tool that can’t be replaced with arguing your point in the classroom.

  I had a few metadata issues with Jellyfin until I changed the primary metadata source to be the same as what Radarr/Sonarr use so they all the file names match up and I’ve had no issues since.

  I also don’t have a notable issues with subtitles in Jellyfin, but maybe your requirements have more friction. Have you tried the (iirc included by default) Jellyfin plugin to automatically download subtitles for your stuff? Or the *arr program that handles subtitles (I forget its name)?
