I did not realize there were other forks besides Graphene and LineageOS.

In any case, thanks for the info. I guess I’ll have to shop around.

Really? That’s awesome! I think I’ll check it out. :)

Edit: …Seriously? They only support Pixel devices? Wow. Fuck this.

I’ve looked at the bomb simulator linked above

I’m not seeing a link. Did it get deleted?

Exactly.

I’d love to try out GrapheneOS (or another OS), but I can’t afford a second phone, and there’s no way I’m gonna dive head-first into something entirely unfamiliar to me when it’s my only method for telephony.

That’s what I do. LibreWolf on desktop and Mull on Android, with FF Sync enabled between them. Works like a charm!

Okay, I checked, and as far as I can tell (which doesn’t mean much as I don’t know much about this stuff, mind you) it does seem like I can control outbound rules. However, I don’t know how to find out the IP address of the TV. Additionally, I don’t know if my router is IPv4 or IPv6 in this context, but according to the online spec sheet for my router model it supports both.

Is the RHCSA worth it?

I don’t know. What’s the RHCSA? Let’s check the description. Maybe they’ll explain.

See title

Hmm… :/

Thanks. Will check out my router settings and respond back later tonight. :)

Is it possible to connect an Ethernet cable to my TV, but only have it connect the local network, not the Internet? I.e., just a LAN connection. I have very little desire to watch YouTube on my TV, but I do have a personal Emby server that is not connected to the wider net but is accessible locally.

Did you even bother to look? Your post makes it seem like you didn’t and just want to make other people do it for you.

The MegaThread is clearly labeled and conveniently divided into categories, and any source that is ranked as a GOAT source is clearly marked by a goat icon.

Balllllllllllllllllls...

...That being said, this is exactly what I was talking about.

Okay, so I installed it through F-Droid and tried to find this station

but it couldn’t find it even when I included the callsign.

Am I doing something wrong?

Sorry, I should have specified: I’m speaking from the perspective of a Midwestern American.

I honestly miss that in modern handheld devices. A lot of radio stations aren’t even available as Internet radio, and if they are, there’s often no common search database (except iHeartRadio, except fuck iHeartRadio) so you have to manually input the stream URL, and a lot of them make it a pain in the ass to even find the stream URL on their site.

In short: fuck Internet radio. FM’s where it’s at.

Edit: Sorry, I should have specified: I’m in the US, specifically the Midwest.

Short answer: it depends on the person and situation.

Long answer: it depends on the person and situation.

Yeah, I can agree with that.

I said a near-monopoly. Also, even if it’s foss, by creating the format, they established the baseline parameters of that format.

That gives them a significant degree of control.

Edit: I also hate it because so many of the programs I use don’t support it, so I constantly have to copy > paste into image editor program > Save as PNG.

Though admittedly this is mostly an adoption thing. Still, it’s a major problem.

I apologize if this is too long. Feel free to skip to the tl;dr at the bottom if you wish.

Level 5½.

Most of my family didn’t really disown me so much as just not inviting me to anything anymore. Or talking to me. Or calling/texting me.

Of the four people who were left:

• One was flat-out Level 5 – they AFAIK haven’t changed to this day; we haven’t spoken for almost 11 years. I typically refer to her as “That Bitch”.
• One was Level 5 leaning toward Level 4 – thankfully, after a talk with them and some subsequent healthy eavesdropping on their end of a conversation with me and a friend of theirs (yes, I knew about it), they swiftly turned into a Level 1 and eventually one of my heroes in life. That was 6–7 years ago… I love my Dad. :)
• One was Level 3 – she’s still Level 3 and I have accepted that she will never change but she has at least largely also accepted the fact that so won’t I and that it’s not a phase. But at least we’re not fighting…
• And one was Level 1 with a dash of Level 2 – sadly, my paternal grandmother has been dead for a few years now. :( Rip…

tl;dr: Holy fuck, fuck, fuck then not fuck, sadface, and rip da homie…

Because it’s yet another example of Google’s near-monopoly over the Web’s architecture. It’s not healthy for good web development. It’s like the 90s and Microsoft all over again.

I mean, fuck, we’re already getting websites that’ve been “optimized” for Chromium-based browsers—in other words, semi-broken for non-Chromium browsers.
