For my money, it's Puscifer > Tool > APC.

Don't get me wrong, they're all great in their own forms!

Except you can't, at least not completely. As far as I can tell, you still cannot change network settings on Nest cameras through the Home app. Per Google, you need to use the Nest app for that...

Interest, meet conflict.

Yes, yes it is.

I recently had the opportunity to drive from Tennessee to Alabama. I'd never been to this region before. I was amazed at how lush everything was!

I don't know about y'all, but I'm trying to find ways to resist what's coming. They want to fuck us over. Don't make it easy!

 

I have Kodi installed on top of LibreElec on a Raspberry Pi. It works well, and I've installed the addons for Netflix and Prime. However, it's frustrating to use because the interface defaults are not great and changes to preferences are not persistent.

The default view is a list format. I'm sure some love that, but I prefer tiles. The default sort is nonsensical (I can't even tell what it is). I can set it to newest or oldest first.

But there is no global setting that I can find, so you need to set it for every interface. What's more, if you change these settings for an addon, they'll revert to the defaults the next time you use it.

Given the popularity of Kodi, I'm sure I'm just missing something. Can anyone give advice on how to set this up?

Thanks!

...and nothing of value was lost.

It's almost pointless to try to go to concerts anymore. Deftones is coming in a few months. I tried to buy tickets about 5 minutes after they went on sale. Already at that point, half of the arena was up for 'resale'.

I chose a couple of seats that hadn't yet been touched. In the few seconds it took me to decide, it let me know they were no longer available. I refreshed, and saw they were now up for resale for +50% or so.

Don't count on Ticketmaster to stop this. Why would they, when they get a cut of the resale? Regulation is needed, and fast.

My desire to distance myself from Copilot led me to start using Libre. It was a surprisingly easy transition.

While it doesn't feel as polished as MS Office, I find that it has everything I need. It also allows more control for customisations. Now, a few months later, I prefer using Libre over MS.

I honestly haven't noticed a difference.

Me too. I have a Brother printer. When I first set it up, Windows printed everything in inverse black and white until I hunted down the correct driver. Windows also never figured out how to wake it up, so I always had to manually wake it up. And it simply never worked with the scanner.

Linux got everything right without me having to fuss with anything.

I installed Graphene OS. Loving it so far.
