I am not worried about the war, the only affect it has on me is that gas prices have gone up.

I am worried about the fact that Hegseth has managed to replace the entire command structure with cristofacists that believe they are going to initiate armageddon.

I am worried about what those commanders will do when it comes time for this administration to step down.

I am also very worried about how many people I know who cannot find work and are unable to pay their mounting debts. I’ve been helping a friend pay for her cell phone bill while she tries to get a new job. I have multiple friends who cannot even get minimum wage jobs because they are “over qualified”.

I am worried about how much damage and harm the AI industry is doing to our entire fucking society.

The war in Iran is nothing compared to all of this.

That difference…

Meatballs in a slowcooker full of bbq sauce is the ultimate in potluck cuisine. I sometimes make that shit just for myself

Additionally, the quality of food that you find at a market is often much better because it was selected for the market and presented much closer to picking time, vs the gross that was shipped off for warehousing for two weeks before sent to a storefront a week before it starts to go bad

Winter is kinda wild too. The fact that the planet is tilted just enough to make it cold part of the year, but not so cold that it kills everything, and many plants and animals have integrated this into their life cycles.

Halo. I hate watched it and then got annoyed that they cancelled it right at the point that they actually got to the damn Halo.

Wait, is this the original comic? It’s so much clearer than the meme template

I’ve used PlexAmp. It’s shit. It tries its best, but it can’t make up for the flaws in plex’s underlying library system. It also requires having a library host running all the time. Apple host the music for me and I can make library changes from any of my devices.

I’ve tried a number of other self host options, as well, and none of them come close to the feature set in Music. I even wrote my own web app to do it way back in the 2000s, just so I could implement my own UX. This is still better.

I pay for Apple Music (well, technically I get it as part of Apple One) for one reason: the library matching function. I have half a gig of mp3s on my home computer, many of which are not on any streaming service, and apple makes them all available to every device I own.

For me, thats worth the monthly price.
