I know you didn’t want to, but I’ll bet two navidrome instances will be faster and lighter than JF or Plex.

I’ve seen one video on the subject that my wife showed me, then I had a conversation with my wife about it.
When you’re looking at statistics, women attacked by bears per year vs women attacked by men per year, it’s not taking into account the fact that 99% of women don’t get into situations where they are near bears. Most women (and men) don’t go hiking in bear populated woods frequently. Like how the overall odds of getting struck by lightning is low, but some people are struck 8 times are survive.
The better statistic for this argument is that a man is more likely going to kill you in an encounter, should it escalate. I didn’t fact check this, but I’ll take this video at it’s word.

- Comment on Funkwhale - A platform for all your audio 2 months ago:
You can disable downloading if your music is copyrighted. Or a layer for copy left of someone tries to take credit.

I don’t think you’re supposed to host music you don’t have the rights to. I think you’re supposed to post your own music

Sorta, but not quite.
This isn’t built to trap you into an ecosystem. It’s only built to give options. Each app is enforcing the activitypub protocol.

- Comment on Steam Workshop Has added support for paid mods 6 months ago:
No objections here.
These aren’t obligated paid mods. Anyone can still do free mods that rely on Nexus for downloads and stuff.
If anything, this is like FDroid / Google Play Store with FOSS apps. You’ll find dozens of paid foss apps on the play store that are free on fdroid. The play store is for donations and convenience. Auto updates without modding your phone, centralized store, etc.

3ds runs perfect, even at 2x or 3x resolution.
Switch will depend on your game a lot more.

- Comment on [VERGE] Proton’s password manager now lets you securely share logins 8 months ago:
I’ll admit, I don’t use Proton’s password manager. I use everything else they have. It’s my email, my calendar, and my VPN. It’s also my primary cloud, but I don’t use cloud very often.
I keep my proton email password in my current manager. I don’t want to lock myself out of my email and really screw myself.
Does anyone here use their passwords? Have you had any of the concerns I’ve had?

- Comment on How do you manage your music library? 8 months ago:
All my music is properly tagged. Navidrome can combine artists and albums across the folder.
Then it’s just down to Deemix to grab it properly tagged. Most of my music is artist/album/song, but plenty is loose or in just artist folders.

Because aligning to the temperature at which water boils is the objectively correct choice?
“Hey, how hot is it going to be today?”
“Well water is about 1/3rd the way to boiling, so about 30 degrees”

- Comment on Nintendo switch 2 akin to PS4/XBO power 9 months ago:
I played Wii bowling on my steam deck. Using Dolphin, a Wii mote connected through Bluetooth, and a USB sensor bar. Then just a dock to put it on the TV and charge it.
Only thing that gave me trouble was the speaker in the Wii mote.
