I think the premise is flawed. Most of us have been brought up in a world that preaches "if you're not growing, you're dying." That mindset is harmful in a whole host of ways. I have no idea if lemmy is growing or not, but it's quite possible, perhaps even preferable, for a service/site/mom-and-pop shop to be sustainable without unending growth.

You can. You sign up on the website, you get an email telling you to install the app a day or two later. It's a very open "closed beta"

Newpipe still works on Android.

I misread the headline and thought it was saying the guy was some sort of militant centrist. 🤣

Honestly, it's kind of heartening how infrequently they forget the benevolent part.

Not a huge amount of transcoding happening, but some for old Chromecasts and some for low bandwidth like when I was out of the country a few weeks ago watching from a heavily throttled cellular connection. Most of my collection is h264, but I've got a few h265 files here and there. I am by no means recommending my setup as ideal, but it works okay.

It does fine. It's an i5-6500 running CPU transcoding only. Handles 2-3 concurrent 1080p streams just fine. Sometimes there's a little buffering if there's transcoding going on. I try to keep my files at 1080p for storage reasons though. This thing's not going to handle 4k transcoding very well, but it does okay if you don't expect too much from it.

EspoCRM. I really like it for my purposes. I manage a CiviCRM instance for another job that needs more customization, but for basic needs, I find espo to be beautiful, simple, and performant.

7 websites, Jellyfin for 6 people, Nextcloud, CRM for work, email server for 3 domains, NAS, and probably some stuff I've forgotten on a $4 computer from a tiny thrift store in BFE Kansas. I'd love to upgrade, but I'm always just filled with joy whenever I think of that little guy just chugging along.

Another outlet has it listed at $499, fwiw.

I'm curious, if you don't mind weighing in a little further, do you mean that you're not currently worried about contracting bird flu or do you mean that you're not worried about the potential of this strain to become transmissible between humans.

As a lay person who's been following the outbreak for almost 3 years now, it seems that the goal posts for concern have been continually moving.

Congratulations! I got my other ear pierced early in my transition (one was already pierced and just needed stretched). The best advice is to leave them the hell alone other than maybe saline solution. If you're like me, you're going to want to wear all those cute/dangly earrings you see everywhere now. Resist that urge as best you can. Give it time and let them heal. It can take up to a year for your piercings to fully heal and every time you change your earrings before that process is complete, you add time to the clock.
