What do you mean "you people"?

Yeah, it might be just to arrest him, but America clearly doesn't give a fuck. The fact of the matter is the people picked Trump this election, if nothing else arresting him will only galvanize his followers and legitimatize their own turn to fascism. There's no good outcome in this scenario, we missed that opportunity on election night. It sucks but right now we're the kid playing with fire; obviously we need to learn the hard way. We should've learned from the last trump presidency you say? Yeah, we really, really should've.

That's what I've always thought. If they can do the pushups, runs, etc, then who cares about their gender? It doesn't matter if women are statistically less capable in those areas if every individual is going to be evaluated anyway. Their is no good reason to filter recruits based gender, 'cept sexism obviously

Okay but YouTube suggested videos are genuinely way worse than they used to be. I can't even fall down rabbit holes anymore. Trying to "curate" the algorithm is like swimming against the current. I can try and try to get YouTube to recommend me live music, but even when I manage to find something, the next video is going to be either a video I already watched yesterday or Rick Beato's daily rant about the top 40. Every time.

I used to be able to spend hours just browsing, drifting from topic to topic. Now it's like they're trying to trap me in a loop of their most profitable videos

Lies and statistics. Out of the last 7 elections they also won 3. And out of the last 3 they only won 1. Really it's a pretty even split so far this century, and counting this last election Republicans have had the edge. So sure the dnc isn't losing all of their elections, but ffs sake they should be doing a lot better than this.

Squint and he's wearing a maga hat smh

 

TL;DR if the Roku app is failing to play back some videos recently, try turning on "Text Subtitles Only" in playback settings

So I'd been having this issue where certain videos would fail to playback in the Roku player (but only on Roku, playing from the Android app, the browser, or directly all worked). The video would get stuck buffering at 33%, but after a minute or so it'd finally stop with "There was an error retrieving the data for this item from the server". Transcoding issue? I'd been trying to figure this issue out for a few hours over the course of a few days. I don't recall having this issue before mid-December, and as I learned today apparently there was a big update to the Roku app.

Anyway, my first real clue was using "ffmpeg -i video.mp4" to compare the codecs of a known working video and a not working video. The non-working video was showing an issues with subtitles. So after poking around in the Roku client's settings I saw the "Text Subtitles Only" option in playback settings, and enabling it worked!

Hopefully someone sees this and it saves them a headache. I had to postpone my personal movie night like three times trying to figure this out

 

Pretty much title. Sometimes I want to see new content, sometimes I want to go back and look at old content. It's a little exhausting having to jump into settings to hit that toggle, and it would be really cool if we could switch it from the top bar or in the three-dot menu in the top bar

 

Scrolling down hides them, scrolling up they come back. I like being able to see more content at a time, it'll make the app feel less claustrophobic.

 

Infinity for reddit used to vibrate briefly when comment chains were minimized (same way, press and hold). I got really used to that feedback.

Also related, but an option to disable the animation for minimizing comment chains would be cool. The slide is kind of disorienting to me
