In grade school music class they had us sing "someone's in the kitchen with Dina strumming on the ol' banjo" and "jump down turn around pick a bale of cotton"

I agree for the army. National guard? Nope. As redneck as it gets.

Saying "over" on the radio is like the null byte at the end of a string. in c/showerthoughts@sh.itjust.works

No, it's not. Over means you want a response. Out means the conversation is over. Over and out is not a thing except in movies and is stupid and nonsensical.

The days of the palm pilot with an IR blaster were awesome. I'm sure there is a USB device that can be used with phones.

What do you use as email app on Android, specifically for Gmail? in c/android@lemmy.world
[–] knobbysideup@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 weeks ago* (last edited 2 weeks ago)

Nine. I use it with my own dovecot/sendmail server and with Gmail for work.

It's not maintained but still works better than the others for me.

I hope musk shuts down X in retaliation.

Dipshit dementia don needs to be removed from office. Then again, the puppet masters will have even more power then.

Mixing Amway with Shmoocon, however, was a very bad idea. Fun for the hackers and social engineers, though.

Donald Trump attacks judges in all-caps Memorial Day message: "MONSTERS" in c/trump_watch@lemm.ee

Right out of the gate, "happy memorial day" is highly inappropriate on its own.

You have to be dumb enough for it to work though. The bigger problem is poor education and lack of critical thinking. It makes our country weak. What happened to America's passion to learn?

Tidal Replacement (sh.itjust.works)
 

Now that tidal integration is dead, a good option I've used before is livexone (formerly slacker). While i loved having everything in one place, I prefer not having to buy/rip or download the huge catalogs available elsewhere. And now that music seems to be going away in plex clients in the roadmap as well, i decided to find another solution sooner.

The ui isnt the best, but is far from the worst. How I use it:

  • star an artist to add them to your list of artists
  • then immediately also add that artist to each custom station you want them to be a part of
  • while playing your custom stations, use the dot menu to fine tune how much outside of the station can be pulled in. This, imo, is live's killer feature. Similar music is based on the whole list of artists in the station, not just a single artist.
  • grow your artists and playlists by browsing related.

In addition to this, livex also has genres, curated lists, new music lists, and podcasts.

It also has apps that do not suck on android auto and android tv.

I'm already not missing plexamp + tidal, so I wanted to share.

Shout out to rclone (sh.itjust.works)

I needed to move a lot of stuff from dropbox to an AWS EFS today. The dbxcli tool does not do full directories, nor does it differentiate files from directories. Its 'ls' output is far from ideal for machine parsing as well.

I had resigned myself to spending most of my day writing something to parse and download recursively.

Then I stumbled on the fact that rclone supports dropbox as a remote. Hallelujah!!! Within minutes I was cloning things from dropbox to my EFS.

I will definitely keep this in mind the next time I am tasked to move things from a transfer-hostile cloud system.

Tidal integration going away (sh.itjust.works)
 

This royally sucks for me. I like having my own local library integrated with Tidal.
