I agree, but unfortunately, there's probably not a good self hosted solution to this specific problem.
I use musicbrainz for music tagging, which is an excellent source for all metadata except lyrics. For better or worse, the only decent sources of lyrics seems to be genius and musixmatch, and neither integrate well with tagging tools like musicbrainz Picard.
If anyone else has found an easier way to do this, I would love to hear it.
Unfortunately, that isn't feasible in the current system. In first past the post every vote is damage control at best.
We need ranked choice voting everywhere before people will even consider a third party.
Yep. They rewrote the progression/leveling system like 5 times.
Yes.
The only added flavor in standard chocolate chip cookie dough is vanilla. Plus the chocolate chips.
Of course people don't usually think about it like that because vanilla is in nearly all baked sweets.
Yeah, that always seemed like a transitional name to me. The BSA branding has been so prominent historically, they kinda had to keep it for a while.
I agree with most of your points, but I don't know, I think I would keep the reverent in the scout law, even if the oath changed.
As a (nonreligious) scout, I always interpreted the reverent more as being respectful than actually religious. More like respecting the beliefs of others, or being respectful and solemn in a cemetery or a war memorial.
There's nothing else in the scout law that conveys that feeling, and I feel like the law would be missing it if it were dropped.
Endeavour's current iso is still KDE 5 and X11, but if you do an online install it will default to 6 and Wayland. Just make sure to connect to the Internet before starting the installer.
The word "protects" seems almost intentionally misleading here. They are talking about changing zoning requirements to allow for higher density housing, instead of forcing single family home suburbs.
I think they're rationalizing it by saying that's a juvenile sandworm. The larger one with the round mouth is fully grown.
They probably just wanted a design difference between a smaller human scale threat and the massive ones that eat entire structures like spice harvesters.
Probably just only drinking water. AKA a normal fast.
Though to be fair most fasts still allow for other zero calorie drinks, like tea or coffee.
Spotify has almost every song on the planet
Until a contract negotiation with UMG goes south and they lose half the catalog overnight. See what's happening on tiktok right now for a good example of this.
I understand the convenience draw, but I'm not a fan of continually paying for content that can disappear at any moment.
something implied about transporter buffers seems to indicate they can hold incredible amounts of data that starts to degrade very quickly
Exactly. I always understood the difference between replicators and transporters to be the level of detail in the scan. The replicators don't need as much detail to make a convincing steak or a cup of tea. So they can store those scans at a much lower resolution and have a full, permanent library.
The transporters need an immense amount of detail to perfectly store your pattern, to avoid messing with your brain chemistry and causing transporter psychosis. It's too much data to keep on hand for every crew member.
Yes, but the word rewrite implies that it would serve the same function and retain compatibility.
If someone wrote a new implementation of the x protocol, as a drop in replacement for the existing x.org server, you might call that a rewrite.
Wayland is an entirely different solution to the same problem. It doesn't follow the x protocol, and doesn't maintain compatibility with the x.org server.

They were buying water from Detroit's water system. In order to save money, they switched to getting it from the nearby river, but they failed to account for how the new water source would interact with their pipes. They didn't treat the new water correctly and it corroded all their old lead pipes, dumping lead into the water and giving everyone lead poisoning.
Even years later, after they switched back to Detroit water, they're still having problems because the damage to the pipes is already done.
I get why you would want that, but I think that would end up causing other weird issues. Like what happens when someone from that instance is in the middle of a comment chain? Would it cut off the thread there, or would there just be a comment missing?
I'll take the simple solution over no solution.
I disagree. Not everyone wants to spend the time to completely customize their system. Distros like Manjaro and Endeavor give people a decent "just works" install while still giving them experience with the Arch ecosystem. The forums are usually a good resource, and everything on the arch wiki still applies. It might just be because I had previous linux experience, but I've learned a lot running Manjaro.
The average person is not going to jump straight into vanilla Arch as their first distro, but after a couple years with Manjaro, they might try it.
They're referring to the third stanza of the original lyrics.
And where is that band who so vauntingly swore That the havoc of war and the battle's confusion, A home and a country should leave us no more? Their blood has washed out their foul footsteps pollution. No refuge could save the hireling and slave, From the terror of flight, or the gloom of the grave, And the star-spangled banner in triumph doth wave, O'er the Land of the Free and the Home of the Brave.
After a quick skim of the wikipedia article, the meaning seems to be a mixed bag, but most agree he was referring to the British, who fought with ex-slaves and had a history of pressganging at the time. Not saying Francis Scott Key was perfect or anything, but it seems more anti british than pro slavery.
Also worth noting all of this is not in the modern version most people hear. Almost all modern versions stop after the first stanza.
There really isn't any way to 'migrate' right now. You can create accounts on as many instances as you like, but there isn't a solution for carrying post and comment history over. You can start here: https://github.com/maltfield/awesome-lemmy-instances
Check a few out and find an instance you like that aligns with your views or where you agree with the moderation. Preferably a small to medium sized one that hasn't been overloaded.
YouTube has a pretty good collection of obscure tracks
This is because current Youtube policy effectively bundles ContentID and YouTube Music. Basically if a rightsholder wants to put audio into ContentID, they are forced to also publish it on Youtube Music (topic channels).
