5 hours of battery life... is a feature they're proud of?

Yes. That's alot of battery life for in-ears of that size. Also you add hours more in a 10 min charge from the case. If you have to wear headphones for more than 5 hours straight without a few min break, you have other issues than th technology.

Trying to sleep straight through a long haul flight; what’s the issue with that?

Big raclette seeding ideas in my head.

That's the value change right? You can park more densely as no one needs to get in our out of the vehicle.


Should an Emby premiere user consider moving to Jellyfin?


I have found Emby to be a nice middle ground between Plex and Jellyfin.

It has more polish and refinement than Jellyfin but doesn't have the obtrusive ads and whatnot that Plex offers. Client support is also great. Jellyfin is still quickly gaining ground but Emby is still my media server of choice for now.


>Jellyfin but doesn't have the obtrusive ads and whatnot that Plex offers

I'm a Plex user who's been thinking about trying Jellyfin out, largely in response to some recent UI changes I dislike but... what Plex ads? I don't have any on my android apps, on Roku installs, or on my parent's SmartTV, and none of my other users have ever mentioned any ads to me. (If I was seeing ads, Jellyfin would become "take some time off work and get it working now".)

I know I've disabled everything except my own libraries, so it's possible there's a setting somewhere that allows them, but if so, I disabled it so long ago I honestly don't remember ever seeing any. Are other Plex users seeing ads? Was it after a recent update that I may have skipped, maybe?


The homescreen on the Xbox app is now full of "Apple TV", Trailers, free TV and the like. Enough of it that you can't see you own stuff on the homescreen.

Last time I searched I couldn't turn it off. But maybe I missed that setting.


Not until Emby starts to enshitify our jellyfin ui gets alot better. I made the switch around 2 years ago from Plex and tried out both extensively. Jellyfin just doesnt have the polish I was looking for.


PTP the best option for reviews anyway.


There are many, many homes in the UK with no garaging, where cars are parked in non-reserved spaces on the street overnight.


If a significant percentage of cars start to become EVs then spaces where people regularly park overnight will get chargers because it will allow whoever is operating them to make a bit of money selling electricity. You don't have to be making a huge profit margin to make it worth your while to have people passively buying ~200kWh/month of electricity from you.

The same applies to workplaces, especially if solar causes electricity to cost less during daylight hours, and then it becomes convenient to get an EV if there is a charger where you park at night or where you park during the day.


that would depend on the infrastucture cost to install such charging and to maintain it? This is kerbside slow charging presumably overnight. Note that spaces in these residental areas are typically not even marked spaces; the worst outcome might be losing more footpath space to charging infra for road users.


> would depend on the infrastucture cost to install such charging and to maintain it?

The UK runs on 240V. A regular outlet would probably be fine.


Non-fast chargers aren't very big. They can be installed in lampposts, or in lampost-diameter boxes sunk into the pavement (with the socket sticking out at the top)



Yeah, or these ones https://trojan.energy/


There are two types of hydro - run of river, and ones with large lake storage. You need the ones with large lake storage, rather that the ones with a lake to build a head.


Will be eaten alive by the chinese competitiors at that ridicilous price point.


I mean, who even needs a secure kernel.


I am amazed every day that people are expected to turn up every day to work while being unpaid. In westminster-style parlimentary systems, if a government can't guarantee supply[1], they are sacked, and a snap election is called.

[1] - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Confidence_and_supply

The paralysis of the political system in the US is either a feature or a bug depending on your point of view i suppose, but no question that it is entirely dysfunctional that a government can continue existing if it can't pass a budget.


This is how Canada works (Westminster style). When a govt tables a budget it goes to a vote, and if they can’t get the votes to pass it it triggers a no-confidence vote in the govt and away we go to an election.
