You could call them a literal gem eh?

…I’ll see myself out

ninja edit: Hell, even a Chromebook will see you right with some of your other complaints in this thread about Taskbars etc. Unless of course you’re averse to anything Corp / they spying on you in which case you’re fucked anyhoo.

Dreamplayer on Android and Android TV is pretty cool for TVH servers, albeit they want you to pay for each app and have a rather appropriate username

But as others have said LiveTV on Jellyfin sucks and can be used instead with VLC and other apps / resources.

I’d be curious how many account holders in the UK have actually been prosecuted for copyright infringement.

In nearly two decades with the same ISP (Telewest > Blueyonder > VirginMedia) I’ve had a grand total of two emails from them with no teeth in it, and still download what I want from public trackers to this day.

I get an actual letter from them? Yay, free toilet paper!

Who the fuck are these guys OP?

My immediate manager is fine and like I said above, half of their managers could be given the chopping block but that doesn’t mean I need to find new employment as you suggest. I quite like my job since I can walk it there, work outside all day with wonderful views even if the weather does get a bit poop sometimes.

In fact it tells me you’re relatively sheltered with experience in workplaces if you think most places don’t have lazy ass managers, office drones (I like this term), and good luck asking if they even have them during an interview.

Nah, I wouldn’t want to become an office drone because I’d go from calling people on the internet liars to then trying to give others career advice when they don’t even know 2% of my job.

Hilarious, the self-righteousness must come from being an office drone, right?

Well, maybe your workplace wouldn’t put up with these people but I can confirm that besides them not being able to use SAP to check the quantity of a BOM, to like I said - they have access to the other functions / data but prefer to delegate them to others.

So it ends up going down a hierarchy until someone else does what these managers could do themselves in the first instance.

I have direct experience with the management that only work days since I work continental hours, so get to see how we run during the night without them.

Like I said, half is probably a number we could run with at my place. Sorry state of affairs.

The old; how do you know someone is a software developer? Yup, they tell ya!

I think I really touched a nerve with that guy though, and it seems like they want to be an office drone instead of working from home (this is the bit where the “senior software devs + team manager” argue they need to collaborate, in person) with a nice life balance.

I prerecord like a minute ahead of the show starting and sound / video are both well.

But what happens is the audio mutes as soon as the starting credits roll. I don’t exactly get how they’re doing it since my TV’s DVB receiver plays it just fine.

I checked my HD recording of the new Attenborough Mammals show, and that did have audio so I’ll have to keep an eye ear out for it happening again.

I know exactly what those emails are because I have to deal with them asking me if a wagon that I’m looking at has arrived yet.

So I email them back telling them that it’s arrived (they knew that already because goods-in already updated the checking in sheet) and they get to validate their job somehow by asking me, shit.

It’s quite amazing how they keep their jobs.

I once worked in an office doing what I described above.

I absolutely hated it stuck in a cubicle, and now work outside with lots of other people grafting, instead of listening to gossiping over the cubicles all day long. Think I lasted 2 months.

The thing you’re not accounting for is that work that primarily involves thought, which is what “office drones” are doing

Found the office drone.

Our office drones are not “thinking” for half the day like you, and input and manipulate data. You could also include half these “managers” too who sit in an office sending emails all day, and never hit the shop floor.

You’re absolutely spot on, and it’s evidenced by house prices here in the UK where they’re next to or near a rail line.

They are noisy fuggers and people do not like living by them.

I have a few TVHeadend servers running on Rasp Pi’s and have noticed some of the newer HD titles broadcast over DVB-T2 has the video stream but actually mute the audio. Frozen Planet on BBC was the most recent one I noticed.

SDTV streams are fine but they now mute the HD streams somehow on certain newer titles 🥺

I make my own thank you very much. Sticker packs are a right of passage to navigation on Telegram. We also have the gif game.

I think we’ve lasted 20mins of replying in gifs to each other, in context. Is a very hard “game”.

Yeah, more my point is I was curious if Telegram has previously taken down private groups Vs public ones (I’ve seen a fair few of these obviously since they adhere to DMCA requests) but have never seen a private group taken down.

To be honest Telegram doesn’t ban private groups “for piracy” and only takes out public groups that receive a DMCA.

I think the above user is pointing out a rather fun fact - if you’re in some of the many private groups where shit is shared freely…those wanting to ban it don’t like the fact that they can’t see in those private groups.

Like, is there any evidence of private groups being monitored by media corps or their lackeys in gov?
