- Comment on Stupid question, but are there free VPS/VM instances for a jobless girl who wants to run her own instance? 19 hours ago:
Oracle does it.
- Comment on Just an FYI, but ErsatzTV is no longer maintained if you use it. 19 hours ago:
why isn’t keeping it community maintained an option & it was just archived?
Hm…I sure wonder why-
Anyone want to take over forking the repo?
Ah yeah, that’s why: Can anybody else do this? I don’t want to maintain it myself.

Please share how
- Comment on Spotify playing ads for paid subscribers 2 days ago:
Depends on how you use it.
I like it and it works for what I need from it. - Comment on We hardly remember how our parents raised us when we were newborn/infants. How can we be expected to raise our own kids after they are born ? 2 days ago:
The same way they did.
Just give your best and try to not repeat the worst offenders. - Comment on ReFS is better than NTFS, but Microsoft refuses to let regular users have it 3 days ago:
Because 4GB file limit?
- Comment on ReFS is better than NTFS, but Microsoft refuses to let regular users have it 3 days ago:
Why change it if it works?
What is so bad about NTFS? - Comment on Spotify playing ads for paid subscribers 4 days ago:
No.
It was literally an ad break done into the stream.
The WAN show does not speak German. And they have their own sponsor section. So no way for anyone other than the creator deciding to insert a ad-break during upload of an episode (or getting it suggested by Spotify).
This is assumedly exactly as YT does it. - Comment on Spotify playing ads for paid subscribers 4 days ago:
1.: I divide the payment of Family across 3 members.
2.: I listen to so many songs individually, it would bankrupt me to buy every single song individually or the full album.
3.: I’ll buy an album (2nd hand discogs (so good)/ebay, digitally on wherever or bandcamp). If I don’t like the music as much or the buying process is annoying, I’ll pirate the song.So yeah. It depends.

Can’t talk about navidrome, but jellyfin has a listenbrainz plugin :)
- Comment on Spotify playing ads for paid subscribers 4 days ago:
Nope. Had it happen to me: lemmy.dbzer0.com/comment/25040771
TLDR: I know it because the ads were German but the podcast is in English.

Now I have a peoblem with this statement in a vacuum.
Zero: I am based in Germany. So not as many dystopian laws and decisions as in the USA
First: Yes, Spotify bad, Hooray Jellyfin, ripping CDs and owning the media you have. Also good for the artists.
Second: I had ads played to me. But it only happened on podcasts.
Third: I had talked to the Spotify support: imgur.com/a/Ulis7Oe
(TLDR: Podcast publishers (e.g. LTT with their WANshow or Dallas Taylor with 20 Thousand Hertz) can decide if they want to play ads. They happened to me inbetween episodes)So yeah. Now it would be very interesting what this random person encountered where.
- Comment on YSK that Joseph Stalin created the Great Terror. He started killing people randomly including artists, generals, doctors, scientists, government officials. Everyone was terrified. 4 days ago:
If I remember it correctly, it was quute funny

Didnt know Pewds killed someone to get the money.
At worst he sold his soul for partnerships with brands (and sold out his morals) - Comment on 4 days ago:
I feel it’s reasonable to recognize the wealth he has collected, and to conclude he is not my ally.
Weird take. But hey: It’s a free world and you choose your own battles.
I don’t fucking care who it is, wealth hoarding causes immeasurable harm, not to mention requires a sociopathic mindset. So…yeah, I’m not even giving him a chance.
I- I guess?
I got better shit to waste my time on…
Now that’s a mindset I can get behind!

(Scrobbled by Spotify and Jellyfin) - Comment on If we organised highly-publicised world-wide funerals for each animal that goes extinct because of our behaviour, maybe it would help sway people to take environmental issues more seriously 4 days ago:
No it wont (sadly)
- Comment on Tech hobbyist makes shoulder-mounted guided missile prototype with $96 in parts and a 3D printer — DIY MANPADS includes Wi-Fi guidance, ballistics calculations, optional camera for tracking 4 days ago:
Claymore or so, sure.
But aint this essentially shoulder mortars (or RPGs?)? I don’t think we had achieved this level yet. - Comment on Is it possible to have a usable domain without a VPS or a static IP address? 4 days ago:
This is usual in Germanx on DSL.

While yes, I agree there is one issue: If Ukraine can have it, everyone will get it.
Which (in this case) is not so good - Comment on Is it possible to have a usable domain without a VPS or a static IP address? 5 days ago:
Daily around 3 or 4 am (I can sort of control it by doing it within a timeframe.)

If there is a plugin, everything is (sort of) supported.
Jellyfin has a listenbrainz plugin. - Comment on ListenBrainz about to hit 100k users 5 days ago:
Depends on the app.
If it caches the plays and syncs it back to the scrobble service?
Probably possible.
Afaik it’s not possible for Jellyfin. - Comment on ListenBrainz about to hit 100k users 5 days ago:
Such a great service.
Both it and musicbrainz. - Comment on 5 days ago:
Pihole, then Jellyfin here.
I now have way too much IT stuff on my room :D
- Comment on 5 days ago:
Didnt know pewds is breaching into the tech sphere (from gaming).
Do I need to sub him now? :p
