  • I just want a button that rewinds 10-15s, turns on subtitles, and then turns them off when it catches up again. It’s a pattern I do manually with some regularity.

    I suppose with Jellyfin/OSS, this is something I could implement myself if I was so inclined…

    Hmmm, I’m not sure I understand…

    A large explosion every second has units of power, not energy. So to me this is suggesting that the train is putting out power equal to its kinetic energy per second. That’s certainly not the case — it implies that the train is powerful enough to accelerate to the speed in 1s, which is definitely not true.

    But that’s just my interpretation.








  • Immich looks particularly good to me.

    It is! Been running it for a few years now and I love it.

    The local ML and face detection are awesome, and not too resource intensive — i think it took less than a day to go through maybe 20k+ photos and 1k+ videos, and that was on an N100 NUC (16GB).

    Works seamlessly across my iPhone, my android, and desktop.







  • Also note that many graduate programs are free* — if you don’t count lost wages or the cost of the prerequisite undergrad degree.

    But it all depends on what you want, with a fair amount of luck thrown in IMHO. You can have a lousy job with or without a degree, and you can have a great career with or without one.

    From ed.gov:

    Overall, the median lifetime earnings for all workers are $1.7 million, which is just under $42,000 per year ($20 per hour). Over a 40-year career, those who didn’t earn a high school diploma or GED are expected to bring in less than $1 million, which translates into slightly more than $24,000 a year ($11.70 per hour).


    *Or rather, funded by your research/TA/etc.




  • Exactly — this is ~10GB every 6 hours (which is probably a reasonable amount of time to run a backup while not interfering with active Internet use).

    Basically the only backup-worthy content I generate is casual photos and videos, and these are nowhere near that size (Immich database backups also take up a bit but I could certainly be smarter about how I handle these backups).
