Yeah, agreed. I love that podcast but listening to it makes me too upset so I need to take breaks lol

I think that was a Supreme Court case, Glacier Northwest, Inc v. International Brotherhood of Teamsters (learned this on the December 5th 2023 ep of 5-4)

Last I checked, Kobo will be better specs (screen, water proofness and connectivity) for the money, and if you’re technical it can be modified very heavily, including pretty easily user expandable storage.

Kindle will have a more seamless Amazon experience and maybe better support.

I have a Kobo Clara HD, and I love it to bits. Warm temperature backlight, and I have installed custom firmware on it which lets me use a different reader app, and run an SSH server on it so I can remotely transfer files etc.

My parents and I were at the store last week, coming back to our car in a handicap spot (my mom recently had knee surgery). Two assholes had already dropped their carts off in the blue painted areas next to our car blocking the door, and another asshole literally pushed his cart in front of us to join the pile.

The store’s entrance where all the carts were was literally a dozen steps away.

I was steaming mad all day, absolutely ruined my outlook on humanity for a few days

Nah, I just put a relay and esp32 together and connected it alongside the garage door switch (super old school). It sits on top of the opener in a little enclosure. I originally controlled it with mqtt, but later reflashed the esp with esphome.

My people! I knew I was starting to get into it when I built some multisensors and a garage door switch controlled by esp32s. Still haven’t done too many very complex things with automations, basically situational lighting and so on.

I was going to suggest this too. A magnetic white board on a conspicuous wall in a common space. It’s what my wife and I use for her cottage food business. Whiteboard marker, post-its, or notes affixed by magnets.

Thank you for this post; there’s a lot of this that I didn’t know, and I’ve always had a vague anti-PETA sentiment without really knowing why.

I have both (they both can coexist peacefully on the same library). I use jellyfin for any watching on my phone or computer.

However, where jellyfin still really kind of falls apart is when casting to my Chromecast. Controls don’t work, subtitles are unpredictable or missing, and it’s just generally a mess.

So I use Plex for casting, and jellyfin for everything else. I bought a Plex lifetime pass ages ago, so it’s an easy call to just have them both running.

:( if you’re looking for a foster or someone to take her, where are you located?

This will change the behavior.
