A cool guide to countries with most Olympic Gold Medals🥇
  • I mean, Australia only has 11 more medals than East Germany. A country that hasn't existed for 34 years. And which had only two thirds of the population of Australia. That's punching about your weight class. And all it takes is systemic abuse of athletes.

  • Ford with glass roof, 1947.
  • Depends on the glass. Normal glass has zero UV protection. In cars the front window usually has it, while the side windows don't. Although I read that years ago, no idea what the current status is.

  • A cool guide to Choose the Right Salt
  • I did and while your claim is true, sea salt does contain iodine, the amount is much, much lower than salt with added iodine. The numbers I found said that sea salt contains 0.1 to 2mg iodine per kilogram. While salt with added iodine contains 15 to 25mg/kg. And there are scientists saying that's not enough.

  • a cool guide to diets
  • Because from a weight-loss perspective it doesn't matter what you eat, only how much calories you stuff into your mouth. You could eat nothing but bacon and still lose weight, if you eat only so much that you still burn more calories per day than the bacon delivers. If you keep your portions the same size but move to food with more calories, you will of course gain weight.

  • a cool guide to Space Etiquette for Dogs
  • I hate those dog owners when their dog is running towards a kid that's about the same height as the dog. None of those assholes would remain calm when a crazy 6ft tall animal with sharp teeth is running towards them.

  • Mint is absolutely killing it
  • I started with Mint because I just wanted it to work right away and it did. But lately I had severe issues with the VPN constantly reconnecting, weird keyboard issues and Teams killing the X session. Although I blame that last one fully on Teams, that fucking piece of shit. Plasma on Manjaro runs so smoothly and I finally have all the latest packages I need, so I'm quite happy at the moment.

    Literature on repairing?

    Hi,

    Is there good literature on how to repair stuff? Just general things, not specific appliances. How to repair wood, how to properly sand wood and metal, how to replace a tile, how to read and analyze circuits, identify faulty parts and correct replacements, etc. I just want to become better at repairing stuff.

    Looking for MiTV box replacement

    I have a MiTV box with Android that runs apps for Jellyfin, Prime Video and Disney Plus. I would like to replace it with a mini PC, like some N100 box, to have more control over what runs on it. I tried a Pi with Kodi once, but I hate the UI so much. It's just not my thing.

    What other options do I have with self-hosted alternatives? I want a central UI like AndroidTV offers, I need Jellyfin, Disney Plus, Prime Video and some local TV station's streaming offerings and some remote control.

    I don't think that's possible, as you can only run Disney and Prime in a browser or their apps. And using a browser on the TV is not nice UX. But maybe some of the great people here have cracked that nut and can help me.

    Good free TTS (text-to-speech) options?

    Are there any free/open-source TTS options out there that are on the same level as Google Cloud's? I tried a lot of free ones, but they are absolutely awful and still sound like my Amiga did 30 years ago. With LLMs being available as open source, I am hoping there's also a good TTS offering I just haven't found yet.

    Barrier/Input Leap/other KVM server for Wayland?

    I really want to use Wayland, but the lack of a Wayland-based KVM sharing tool is an absolute deal breaker for me. I tried so many of them, but none worked. Waynergy looks alright, but it's only a client. rkvm didn't work at all and I don't remember the names of the other tools I tried. I know that Input Leap/Barrier has met their donation goal for Wayland support, but I am not holding my breath that it'll work with wlr.

    Has anyone gotten KVM sharing to work with a Wayland host and other Linux clients?

    Wanted: audio library streaming plus Spotify

    I am looking for something I can run on a Pi that gives me access to my private audio library plus Spotify, because I hate switching apps. I want to access it from a desktop and Android. Does someone have something like this set up?
