Alternatives to Roku/AppleTV for Jellyfin Client in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 week ago

Way over-budget for your taste I guess but I still wanted to make a note here for representation sake. Look into the brand Zidoo. I have Zidoo Z9X 8K, it's the best client I could dream of! ~250$

Cons:

  • Android based (outdated AF but still)
  • Maybe not so secure (http server always on while the device is on, atm)

Pros:

  • Very good support of Dolby Vision, 4K (8K maybe?)
  • Very pretty, both hardware and software very polished IMO
  • The remote is glorious, tactile with backlight
  • Lots of other cool things
  • Very snappy Android experience
  • it just works™
  • The audio downmixing works great, compared to the Google TV which was very bad
  • First party Jellyfin support among others

French here.

The older version (kinda out of fashion) is "Quoi de neuf?" literally "What's new?".

Today we would say "Ça dit quoi ?" which is literally "What you saying?" I guess. But as you may have guessed it's kinda of a street/not so polite way of phrasing it.

I personally use "Ça va ?" at work which is "Are you OK today?" literally, not to be confused with "Are you OK?!" which is the English way of checking that someone is not hurt I guess, though it can be used in the same way "Ça va ?!" to check on someone hurt is fine.

Finally it would be "Comment allez-vous ?" for the polite equivalent, like for a stranger or an official.

What am I doing wrong? (lemmy.world)

Hi everyone,

The label is saying that this plant is a "Portulaca" without specifying.

But the label also says to put the plant in partial shading with a humid soil. Another red flag compared to the Portulaca Umbraticola is that the label says it's highly toxic to humans when I found online that it's not.

Finally, I first tried putting it on a full sunlight balcony (bright hot sun from 10am to 9pm). It become red/yellow but bloomed, now it's on a partially shaded balcony (light sun from 7am to 10pm) and it's still loosing its leaves, even more, the color is worsening as you can see.

That's why I tried online identifiers and they all told me Portulaca umbraticola and that the needs were not the one I had on the label... I might be overwatering then (once every two days).

Should I trust the label and let it there and continue watering? Or shouldn't I trust the label?

Have you tried NixOS? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 19 points 9 months ago

Very well built patches and ways to share them. This is a good thing for gaming as we can try bleeding edge like Arch. But without having to rely on AUR or scripts to copy locally. Thanks to Nix Flakes you simply reference the flake someone shared (after double checking what is in it) and rebuild a NixOS derivation and voila, patch installed. I installed a complete SteamOS in 1 minute with this, reboot and everything works. Even with your locally signed in Steam account 👌

There is a Gnome/KDE installer too now ;)

Why does Gboard feel more fluid than Heliboard? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 1 points 9 months ago

A bit of necromancy is always appreciated. I second handed some learning about Android APIs and especially rumble. It's really scattered and for a very specific vibration you have to basically go very low and code it yourself.

Which might be why Heliboard isn't as polished as Google Board. They might be using simpler API and Google might be using its engineering for a perfect feeling.

Heliboard also has weird bugs such as scrubbing through text with the space not working sometimes, even duplicating letters at times. But overall it works great.

To answer your question with another question: Heliboard isn't the same code base as GBoard, isn't it? Which means that it might have some kinks to iron out to feel more responsive.

If nobody buys the first generation then there is no second generation...

But I might be coping. I'm a first generation owner. I don't see any reason why the second gen is better though (for my kind of usage).

Incremental and yearly updates are often plain better in small ways though, so yeah. Easy to say in retrospective that "the previous is worse" 😅
