I wasn’t sure if this was true or a weird misunderstanding or conspiracy type thing. Seems to be true. Here is an accessible writeup: bbc.com/…/20231127-brazils-mysterious-tunnels-mad…

Very neat.

It's also nice to have a reminder about choosing hardware for now and for future choices as well. I'm still on an nvidia 1080 but I'll likely use amd next go around.

BmeBenji OP ,

That’s what I was thinking too. Regretting investing so heavily in Nvidia for sure right now

What kind of umbrella would be required in each world?

I_am_10_squirrels ,

Earth - any water repellant fabric, probably synthetic

Venus - I’d go with Teflon and extend it to the ground

Titan - SCBA

Neptune and HD 189733b - something hard and durable but lightweight. I’d go with titanium. Chainmaille extending to the ground.

OGLE-TR-56b - tungsten, with a mobile support apparatus.

Asking the right questions

HamSwagwich , to piracy in Spotify Downloader for Lidarr?

I was in the same boat as you. I searched for months but there is nothing out there that works consistently.

I ended up paying for a service that let me download my entire Spotify library and then cancelled the subscription. I then cancelled Spotify and now get so my music through Lidarr and play it through Plexamp. I’m really happy with this setup for the most part, however…

Be aware that Lidarr only downloads full albums, not individual songs, so that’s a drawback.

Also, it’s best to have private trackers (usenet AND torrent) to get the best experience out of Lidarr. I had to spend about a month getting invites to several exclusive Torrent and Usenet sites but once I did Lidarr finds most things. I have to get some obscure things by hand still, though, as they aren’t in Lidarr.

cyberpunk007 ,

Which service? I paid for one but it’s annoying in that it zips up on 50 tracks at a time so it’s cumbersome. I had previously used a python script and wrote my own bash script around it and put in a cron job and it would sync my library every night to Plex. But the API went down and I’ve found no better replacement.

HamSwagwich ,

I don’t remember now. It’s been about a year since I did it. I got tired of tracks mysteriously disappearing out of my library or certain versions of a song not being available (licensing issues I assume) … so now the RIAA gets none of my money instead of some of my money, because they want to be greedy.

I would imagine any of the paid services would work for the most part but I can’t say for sure, I’m sorry. The one i used just downloaded everything at once (about 1500 tracks worth I think)

sleepybisexual , to piracy in Is there any Podcast players that autoskip ads?

Are the ads part of the podcast?

If not antennapod is good

BCsven , to linux in Enabling Antenna Aggregation Might Make Big Difference If Your Laptop Has An Intel Wifi Card.

Not sure if this is the same setting but a linux podcast noted one setting was not set by default (for speed) in order to keep power consumption lower

SteveTech ,

I think some people also use power_save=0 which would, but my understanding is 11n_disable=8 enables aggregating transmit packets together, which impacts latency but improves upload speed.

The song goes “Pinky and the Brain, one is a genius, the other’s insane”, which, if it implies anything, implies Pinky is the genius and Brain is the insane one

Icalasari ,

I mean, for a mouse, Pinky is a genius. He's capable of abstract thought, speech, and planning

cm0002 ,

and planning

That’s…debatable LMAO

Brain has himself trapped in the rat race. He’s so focused on making a profit he’ll never see the truth of the world. Pinky has the ability to escape Samsara.

lugal ,

Not really. I can’t think of the technological term but there is a stylistic device that mirrors them. I can only think of a German example:

Und die einen stehn im Dunkeln und die andern stehn im Licht.
Und man sieht nur die im Lichte, die im dunkeln sieht man nicht.
And some stand in the dark and others in the light. And you only see the ones in the light, the ones in the dark aren’t seen.

When you go literal, the pinky and braim song says “one” and “the other”, not the former and the latter. It doesn’t specify which one it is.

While The Brain’s plans always fail, in two episodes of Pinky and The Brain, Pinky comes very close to actually conquering the planet. In “Pinky’s Plan,” he invites all the world leaders to a party and then talks them into handing over control of their countries to The Brain. In “Pinky’s Turn,” Pinky creates an Oyster Petting Zoo that eventually becomes so successful that it results in President Bill Clinton appointing Pinky to a cabinet position.

In both of these episodes, Pinky’s plan goes surprisingly well, putting him within reaching distance of global domination. However, when he hands the reins over to The Brain, Brain fumbles and everything falls apart.

Crozekiel ,

Plus Pinky can read and Brain can’t, canonically.
