This should keep you entertained in the meantime: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/My_Girlf
You can even get into abusive relationship with Pooteen 😅

Wasn't this one of the early 4chan memes though?

I don't even recall it being perceived as something sexually arousing back in the day, more like a joke 🤔

Это точно! Но ведь человек может мечтать? 😩
Когда-нибудь я обязательно куплю себе телефон, на который влеплю PostmarketOS с SWMO и даже позвонить с него смогу… свалившись перед этим в пять-шесть перезагрузок, а может и поговорить… минуты две — ну, насколько уж там батареи хватит 😂

In any case, those of you who think "Wayland is buggy" are wrong — Linux kernel turned out to be more buggy 😆

It has survived hundreds of switches from HDMI output to internal display and back, and occasionally even to an external VGA one with all the software keeping runnning — well, most of it anyway: Lagrange sometimes crashes (and I suspect other SDL software might) due to weird resolutions being reported when switching outputs or when there's no output available, and occasional Thunderbird crashes — but that's what it always does anyway, sometimes for no obvious reason at all.

I had to reboot my laptop with over 160 days of uptime — kcompactd started crashing on suspend both to disk and to RAM. It's not the laptop I use the most, so this uptime alone isn't that impressive, most of the time it just sits hibernated connected to the TV, what makes it more interesting is that it was one of the longes continuous sessions. It's the smallest laptop I have, the one I often use it in the kitchen and take with me on trips.

В принципе, «комфорт» от использования Android как раз такой, что хоть вешайся 😩

For movies DLNA is amazing, I didn't even realise how handy it is until a couple of years ago. I have another machine that is my torrent seedbox — it has transmission-daemon and minidlnad, I can download a movie or a show and immediately watch it of any TV (one has Xbox plugged into it and the other one has built-in DLNA client) — without going into the trouble of transfering anything. The comfort of Netflix without any subscription costs 😂

And when I'm at home I use DLNA or Samba to access my collection, in addition to it, the machine hosting the music is plugged into the amp and I have cmus running on it and a tiny web interface, so I can control it from a phone without any special software, the remote is HTML with minimal JS so I can use any phone no matter how old — I have my old Windows phones scattered around the place and they do the job just fine 😁

> did you ever go down the path of jellyfin or plex?
No, I've never tried Jellyfin. When I'm not home I assume I would be mostly offline so I have ~300 Gb of music on my phone with me — not enough to hold my complete collection, but more than enough for the things I listen to more or less often.
@newt

@newt
> Then why are you writing all this?
Wasn't I clear enough about it?😂 The role of your machine is confusing to me — you use the same computer for everything in the book, to me it's unusual.
In my Xeon machine I have four identical disks, they are two pairs of disks, which are mirrored arrays: one is ZFS and the other one is Windows Storage Spaces, neither has any music on it. I like listening to the music without having to interact with a computer, I listen to CDs a lot🤷

@newt
> It would be slow as fuck. Right now, the read speed from the pool is around 400-500 megabytes/s (3-4gbits/s) before caching.
And why exactly would you need throughputs like that for music? Want to have a fast storage with redundancy and advanced features and keep your music there too — fine, me? I'm really glad that I can listen to the music or watch a movie without having to interact with a computer I do computer stuff on.

@newt
Oh, FFS, I'm not here to make you do things my way: if you like your setup — fine, to me it seems unusual — that's it. But if you think that the way I see it is exotic and what you do isn't, I don't think so — people use things like AirPlay, Time Capsule or plug in USB disks into their routers to have a makeshift NAS and use DLNA with that — my solution just isn't a pre-made consumer device, yet very few keep their music collection on a ZFS volume in RAID 5 array.

@iska
Yeah, keeping batteries in shape in a UPS capable of sustaining a Xeon machine for a reasonable time is very expensive — I've been attempting to keep it up, but eventually given up: when you can't be sure that they would last, it's just an expensive surge protector — doesn't make much sense.

@newt
Using one computer for everything but the kitchen sink makes sense to you — okay, not that I can make you not do it anyway.
Also "I don't want to bother — I use ZFS for everything" would be a valid point, "I'm storing music on ZFS because it has nice features" — nope! What are those features that would make sense for a digital music collection? Replication, snapshots? 🤭
