I used to run a plugin on my Kodi that would make TV-style channels based on the original airing channel, complete with EPG and everything.
However, it wouldn’t let you add lists of shows and create channels that way. I never got around to making my version, but perhaps someone else has done the work since then.
It’s so rare that we get a new video, but it’s always a special day when it happens.

It’s can’t be anything else, surely! I kinda want that ep to have a character that can’t act.
I think the author’s intended implication is absolutely that it’s a dollar because the USA invented the computer. The two problems I have is that:
It’s just a lazy bit of thinking in an otherwise excellent and internationally-minded article and so it stuck out to me too.
The stupid thing is, all the author had to do was write “kind of tells you who invented ASCII” and he’d have been 100% right in his logic and history.
I’d add that Picard now also has spoilers for DS9.
It allows me to connect into the house via the VPS without opening ports or knowing my home address.
Nowadays there are various companies offering tunnelling services, but my setup has been working for a long time and I see no reason to change.
It’s the root OS; that Pi is a media centre in the living room (plus it’s taken on a few extra duties since it’s always online). It’s been going for a good few years now, 8+?
I’ve been running OSMC (Kodi on Debian) plus a few useful things like maintaining a reverse SSH connection to a VPS.
I plan to switch over later when it makes sense to - the nice thing about Backblaze is that it scales with your storage, whereas with Hetzner you have to jump from 1 TB to 5 TB.
It’s for storing a few terabytes of fairly static media (for the most part, write-once). The codebases using it don’t natively support object storage (and will be in Docker containers).
It’s on a Hetzner server, and Backblaze (even after the price increase) will be a lot cheaper than normal drives, although their storage box option is probably better value over about two GB.
What makes you say that? robot.txt just disallows things like /create_community and there’s no robots, googlebot, etc meta tags in the source that I can see, and no nofollow apart from on a few things like feeds.
Also, I’m sure I’ve seen Lemmy appearing in search results already.
No, I was referring to the bit about having lots of copies of the same content on each different instance. If example.com/c/comm@* had a meta tag giving the origin community as the rel=canonical link target then only the origin would be in a search engine as the only linker.
rel=nofollow is a good idea too, but less interesting to this semantic html nerd.
Seems like Lemmy should add a rel=canonical link when browsing federated communities - this would “solve“ this issue (and would be the correct thing to do anyway).
When I last used Debian, I found myself very annoyed with the lag in the package manager. This is a very long time ago (15 years?), so probably isn’t the case any longer. However, due to laziness (or proactively avoiding a bikeshed rabbit hole) I didn’t check and just chose Ubuntu over Debian the other day because of that.
socialism confirmed to be effective at the atomic scale, got it.
Yeah, the original thin clients were basically useless without the server they connected to, but nowadays even computers the size of a stick of gum are plenty powerful enough for consuming webpages and videos.
You still need peripherals like mouse, keyboard and screen but you might get them as part of the package (sounds like you already have them though).
It’s long running, so you want a database so you can store your state. If you’re storing state, locking it into a state machine makes sense.
I do agree with some of the commenters that making it closer to an event source design would make more sense still.
