I hate the implication that these pillows actually exist somewhere out in the world.

We pick a different dish every year for our main.

That sounds actually awesome.

It was fantasticly coffee

I have no idea what that means, but it still sounds pretty good.

I was excited at first, because I thought I could still chat with friends who won’t leave Discord.

Thanks for the archive link.

Try telling that to your mother who’s been handling the turkey for decades.

You get what you get and you either like it or you shut up and pretend that you do, because that’s your mum and she’s tired and hasn’t seen you in weeks and turkey is always a little dry, trust me I know, I’ve been doing this since before you were born, eat it with some cranberry sauce, have you seen your cous…

I can and have cooked turkey for myself.

And then decided it just wasn’t worth it. Not when I can cook a chicken, a duck, and a Cornish hen for half the effort.

If you want to go through the effort and expense of doing it because that makes it special to you and you enjoy it, more power to you.

But Thanksgiving seems more like ritual torture for the vast majority of people who do it because we collectively accepted that it’s “what you’re supposed to do”.

I support your right to love turkey at any level of doneness.

I should have specified that it’s not worth it to families (or grocery store employees) to collectively pressure everyone in the country to buy a turkey during the same one-week period.

Rather than all of that stress, I’d rather we collectively agree that it’s just not worth it.

Cook smaller poultry.

It’s easier to cook evenly and it usually tastes better anyway.

If you’re promoting Linux, I wouldn’t teach it at all.

Just show yourself doing stuff on the computer like a normal person on Windows what Windows used to be like.

The biggest hurdle for most users is (I think) the mistaken belief that Linux must be complicated.

This is because the turkey is always so dry.

Ah, homework.

The #1 method for persuading the kiddos.

100% they should. Live your dream, Science Team.

I am beginning to remember what made me think Jellyfin wasn’t user friendly.

Maybe it wasn’t the user interface after all.

Tl;dr:

• PhotoPrism: Local AI with strong privacy but heavier setup.
• LibrePhotos: Same, but less polished, more community-built.
• Immich: Best self-hosted Google Photos alternative.
• Ente Photos: E2E encrypted, low-maintenance, most “plug and play”

There is a viable alternative to the problems raised by Bill Gates in his irate letter to computer hobbyists concerning “ripping off” software. When software is free, or so inexpensive that it’s easier to pay for it than to duplicate it, then it won’t be “stolen”.

Yep. What’s considered intuitive UI changes depending on what you’re used to.

It’s why Google fought so hard to put Chromebooks in American classrooms.

I believe you. I feel that way about iTunes (trauma intensifies).

But Jellyfin doesn’t have that reputation.

Have you tried the box it came in?

We still have those?

I thought they all went into tech*.

I set up Plex on my mum’s TV and she can just push play. The UI is intuitive (read: familiar) to her.

Jellyfin has a reputation for giving users more control and customizability, but the other side of that coin is that it’s more “fiddly”.

My users don’t want to fiddle.
