Google’s own Shaka sdk (video playback with ads) gives ad markers in the initial video manifest so that they can be marked on the timeline, so hopefully it’ll be trivial. Usually (but not always) with SSAI, the ads are spliced into the stream just before being sent to the client. That way if a user has just recently watched an ad pod, the server can choose to ignore that marker for a better UX in hopes that they don’t bounce if ads are too frequent.

I thought it fit.

Rap Artist Breaks 20 Year Silence To Take on the Medical Industrial Complex

Sounds more oniony to me than 90% of the things posted recently.

But how do you keep it from just sinking down into the pocket every 20mins? That’s the guide I need.

I run both side-by-side, but for me Plex is still the clear winner right now for features and polish.

Sure. Obviously it’s more complex than that, but it helps illustrate where the math came from in the parent comment. I don’t know why Tidal pays more, but I’m hypothesizing its because most of their “co-owners” of Tidal are themselves, artists/musicians, which IMO is significantly better than the out of touch folks running Spotify.

Think of it not in terms of revenue percentages, but by payouts per song stream:

So song for song, Apple is paying 2.5x what Spotify is (.008/.00318), and Tidal is paying out a whopping 4x what Spotify pays.

Yeah I’m on the free plan which used to include FLAC and 320kpbs, but they stopped doing that for free plans about a year ago I think.

I’ve been using deemix, and for the most part it’s been pretty seamless. Stuff direct downloads instantly, but it’s all in 128kbps now unfortunately. Then I have lidarr monitor everything for a lossless version.

You should check out Plexamp while you bridge the gap. It has tidal support built in, and you can self-host your own collection as you build it up. Then when you’re done with tidal, you don’t have to learn or download a new app.

Can I ask you why you think this would be a good thing? Do you think the government should be able to enforce the values of a single religion with tax dollars?

Edit: oh it’s a troll account. Probably should’ve guessed.

I hope The Satanic Temple comes in and forces a display of their tenets in every single classroom as well. The GOP is such a disgrace. It’s the first amendment FFS; and I know they’ve read it because they’re all crazy about the second one and won’t shut up about it.

I’ve been using an ultrawide since 2017 and I have no desire to go back. If anything I want to get an even wider monitor next time. My advice is to make sure that you don’t get a 1080p ultrawide. The 1440p versions are well worth the price difference. Had a 34” 2560x1080 monitor at work one time and it felt really claustrophobic compared to the 34” 3440x1440 I had at home.

Abstract expressionism

Thanks! It was a Python backend that the data science team at UCAR built and a Vue.js front end.

Damn that’s crazy. When I was just out of college I built the touchscreen web app that promoted this thing in the lobby of UCAR. Looks like it’s still running for now: https://hpctv.ucar.edu

The author obviously thought the value was worth it when he made the purchase. Now he’s sad that others think it’s worth less than he paid? So for him the perceived value of his purchase is based on what other people think, which is pretty sad. Then he does this self-depreciating write up about the experience, calling himself a fool.

Spend your money how you want, but don’t let other people’s opinions determine how you feel about it. You’ll get no sympathy from me, bud.

What an incoherent mess of an article.

Lucky - I’m just browsing on my generic-brand hypercube.
