I assume SSH is not exposed to the internet by default on openSUSE? I have not used SSH on my install so should I be safe if I just update?

This but I don’t have time or knowledge.

If anything it is dangerous as it will still exit even if changes cannot be saved.

You can’t just install an arbitrary Linux distro on an Android tablet.

If you want to run Linux, buy something like the Juno or Librem tablets.

You would need to look at the terms of service with your provider.

Nobody talked about death metal so…

Someone at BuzzFeed is reading our Lemmy conversations:

Did you know that mastodons were relatively short? Despite being nearly 40% more massive than modern African elephants, the American Mastodon was 25% shorter on average!

Don’t be afraid to customize your install with YaST. You can add/remove packages before you do the installation.

You’ll need packman if you need restricted codecs for video.

Update with zypper dup as a general rule.

It’s not a minimum before a check is issued. If you do not have a certain number of annual listeners on a track you never get paid out for it. If you had 100 tracks that were each streamed by 999 listeners who each streamed them 100 times per year every year, Spotify will no longer pay you a dime, ever.

I think a key point of confusion is in the way they presented it. They talk about how many songs have “less than 1000 listens” and that those would only make $3, but then their new policy is to deny payment for “less than 1000 listeners.” If each of those listeners streamed the song once per month, you’re talking closer to $40 than $3, and that’s on a per song basis.

The newest part, which is Spotify refusing to payout what small artists are owed if they don’t hit a certain streaming threshold, is 100% on Spotify.

For alternatives, Tidal allegedly pays better and at least doesn’t do this. Qobuz is not owned by any big tech company.

They charge a 15% fee. So the artist (if independent) or record label (if not) gets 85% of whatever you pay.

I did, I cancelled Spotify and switched to Tidal because of this, and noted the reason in my exit survey.

It’s tricky because the data itself is going to be biased here. Think about it - even the video game is specifically called “Spider-Man Miles Morales” while the one with Peter Parker is just called “Spider-Man.”

Katniss is actually a good example. I was not aware of the details, but the books apparently describe her as having “olive skin”. The problem though is that if you image search her all you get is Jennifer Lawrence.

That said, Homer is yellow.

If a request is for a generic person, sure. But when the request is for a specific character, not really.

Like make one of the undefined arms black.

The main issue with Usenet is retention. I don’t mean that you should worry too much about retention on your particular providers, but just as a general concept the idea that after 10-15 years files go away means that it can be tough to find older media, especially media that is not popular enough for people to reupload.

People always talk about needing multiple servers but I just use Astraweb and I have been fine. I have a block plan on another server somewhere but I honestly didn’t even set it up when I reconfigured nzbget.

Movies and TV shows have been super easy to find on Usenet, but even with a couple private indexers I have found music and books to be hit or miss. I use Tidal with Plex and the $10 per month has been worth it to me simply because I listen to a ton of different music. That said, probably 80% of what I listen to has been available on Usenet.

I read a lot of nerdy books (fantasy and sci-fi) and that’s been easy enough to find, but my wife’s more mainstream tastes have actually been trickier.

Yeah I was still on the plane and it was in airplane mode.

You don’t even need to go the screen share route, Plex has Watch Together built in.

I downloaded this stuff hours before I went to the airport.

I mean not streaming at all back with the DRM issues but I guess that’s fair.
