The clips I’ve seen on other social media platforms has been horrifying to watch. I can only imagine what it must be like to be there right now - I hope your sister is safe 🙏

No idea - from what I can tell I think it’s gone forever 😔

Gapless? Do you mean downloading media for offline playback? Yes:

Just be prepared for the space requirements of your media library as you may find your phone quickly running out of storage if you have a lot of high res audio:

 

Consider it a rumour no more, according to some documents from the City of Surrey and the Site Context & Background on Page 3 of Application No. 7921-0328-00, the location is now scheduled to be converted into the Georgetown by Anthem project:

Generalized site DP for a 4 phased proposal to allow for a total of Five (5) mixed use high rises totalling 2208 residential units and 8658 sq. M of commercial space. See 7922-0103-01 for Detailed Development for Phase one which includes one 31 storey residential tower and one 32 storey residential tower and a detached amenity building with some commercial. Total of 720

At the time of writing this, I could not locate Application No. 7922-0103-01. RIP Whalley Canadian Tire.

I can confidently say that no it will not "intelligently use the LAN" when you're on the same network - I don't know of any service that will...... unless Plex/Plexamp somehow does this?

The solution is as someone else said - use a DNS Server to forward it in your LAN to the internal IP. If you're unsure how to do this, just search how to setup a Hairpin NAT for the router you own. I can confirm that once you set this up, it will work seamlessly with both Finamp and Jellyfin.

I’ve never used plex or plexamp but I have used Finamp for listening / offline downloading of my music collection from my Jellyfin server. Is this perhaps what you’re looking for? iOS: https://apps.apple.com/ca/app/finamp/id1574922594 Android: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.unicornsonlsd.finamp

TIL - thank you for sharing this!

A “motor vehicle incident” that occurred in Surrey Sunday morning is being investigated by the Independent Investigations Office of B.C., the police oversight agency confirmed. [Looks like an RCMP vehicle was involved in a crash, as were two sedans and a minivan.)

Unless you are blocking the vents on the back or top of the device, it's very unlikely that you will drive your Steam Deck "too hard". If you do somehow manage to drive it "too hard", I don't think it will warn you (someone correct me if I'm wrong on this) but what it should do instead is something called thermal throttling whereby the device will scale back it's performance to stay within a certain thermal threshold.

Out of curiosity, which types of independent media (or more specifically which outlets) do you feel should be posted here?

As @[email protected] said in another comment, I’d second that you share relevant articles here as long as they fit within the community’s rules.

😅 This makes me very relieved to hear! I figured that if it was a hardware issue that I would notice it in other applications such as streaming games.

YES! I bought a 64GB model thinking that I could just use the MicroSD card for everything as my gaming needs aren't very demanding, however between EmuDeck, ProtonUp-QT and Shader Caching, I essentially had no storage left to do anything, and it was becoming a bit of a problem. I upgraded my Steamdeck with a Solidigm 1TB P41 Plus: Photograph of the Solidgm P41 Plus SSD At the same time, I did a backplate swap with the JSauX Transparent Back Plate PC0106: Photograph of the JSaux Transparent Back Plate PC0106 installed on a steam deck And I reinstalled SteamOS from scratch using a USB Stick following the Steam Deck Recovery Instructions article by Valve: A photograph of a steam deck performing the re-imaging, re-installing the Operating System from a USB stick. The whole process went great as a whole. No real performance difference to report but I am experiencing a weird bug where SteamOS reports that it is "offline" when I am in fact, connected to the Internet. The bug resolves itself after a few minutes and I have noticed no other networking related issues to speak of... 🤔

 

I took these photos the other day at Green Timbers Urban Forest in Surrey and felt like sharing them here:

A picture of the field between the Willow Trail and Skyline Trail in the Green Timbers Urban Forrest in Surrey.

A picture of a fallen tree with moss growing on it and the sunlight beaming in from above, located along the Quibble Creek Trail in Green Timbers Urban Forrest in Surrey.

A close up picture of a Tree stump with moss growing on it. In the tree stump, there is an opening with a rock placed inside. The rock is painted green with blue dots. The word "FAiTH" is painted in the centre of the rock in the same blue colour. The picture was taken somewhere along the Quibble Creek Trail in the Green Timbers Urban Forrest in Surrey

If anyone else has some amazing Urban Nature shots like this, please feel free to share below!

Can someone explain something to a newcomer of the city?

"Early in the pandemic lockdown, bicycle traffic was moved onto the road, which became car-free. This got bikes off the seawall, to increase physical distancing for pedestrians. This is when access truly was barred to anyone who could not get to the park on foot or by bike. Eventually, after some twists and turns, one road lane was reopened to vehicles, the other reserved for cyclists. Bikes were also allowed back onto the seawall. But some people called for the return of both road lanes to vehicular traffic."

Why do we need a road the perimeter of Stanley park? Are there businesses / residences that will be inaccessible otherwise? Or are we just encouraging people to burn fuel going for sight seeing joyrides?

And Counter Point (for the sake of playing devil's advocate here): Screenshot of Stanley Park as seeon on open street maps dot org Aren't there enough bike trails in Stanley Park that it shouldn't really matter?

I feel like I'm not grasping the issue correctly here and would appreciate further clarity on what is actually going on here...

I'd second what @niisyth said - I'd probably run this by admins first to make sure that doing this is okay and not harming the instance from a technical perspective.

Another thing to consider: You may want to contribute to existing communities before creating multiple empty ones. I think it would be great to give every town / city in Ontario it's own community, but this could deter people from joining as it would give them the impression that it's an empty wasteland / graveyard in here (when it's not).

If you live in a small city/town/village, by all means create a community for it - but I would focus on nurturing it first before expanding to take on other ones.

This is just my two cents though - I leave the executive decision up to you (and the instance admins) 😎
