  • Home Assistant will create a device database

    Jump

  • You are in a lemmy instance talking about it, which is why the people reading a post about a version update to it, know what it is.

    Not to mention that this post is specifically in the Home Assistant-community, which describes the FOSS, local control and privacy aspects of it in the community description.

    Jump

  • Well obviously I did have no idea what home assistant was.

    Yes, this was obvious, but it didn't keep you from ranting as if you did.

  • Can we also take a moment to acknowledge how utterly unhinged this part is?

    "This marks not just the next chapter, but the next book in SpaceX and xAI's mission: scaling to make a sentient sun to understand the Universe and extend the light of consciousness to the stars!"

  • I do plain text accounting with ledger-cli. Nice and future-proof, and I can easily build stuff on top of it. Other examples are plain text accounting software is hledger and beancounter, the latter which is known to have a pretty good Python-ecosystem surrounding it.

  • Trying Jellyfin again and I'm more lost than ever

  • I've set it up using Docker, following a guide I found on YouTube at the time (it was one of the first thing I set up with Docker). It was really smooth sailing, and it is still running like a champ.

  • What the Linux desktop really needs to challenge Windows

    Jump

  • That's a weird thing to present as an absolute truth. As someone who has exstensively used both Windows (3.1, 95, 98, ME, XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10 and 11) and macOS (from 2011-2022), and now using KDE Plasma on my daily driver laptop, GNOME at work and Cinnamon for my living room machine: all three Linux DE are superior experiences.

    Surely there are people who would prefer Windows and macOS over them, but it is highly subjective.

  • They got camera working on FP3 and FP4. Fairphone employs a guy who basically does work to get their hardware to run Linux.

  • Music Assistant 2.7 - Taking over the airwaves

    Jump

  • I would use Audiobookshelf as a source for Music Assistant, and then play them via Music Assistant. That way I can use my Sonos speakers (and eventually Snapcast speakers), synchronize across rooms etc. If I had to use Audiobookshelf directly, I would either play it from my TV with the TV on (only other way I can use my Sonos Beam) or on my phone with a Bluetooth speaker or headphones.

  • Can't wait to listen to a constant buzz of thousands of these in the air at all times.

  • Backing up Spotify

    Jump

  • How voluntary is it when these platforms have a monopolistic grasp on how consumers access music these days? And the more people believe that the artists are actually fairly compensated from this model, the firmer this grasp becomes. What choice do they have of being there if they want to have any kind of reach?

    A Spotify Premium subscriptions will cost someone 156€ a year. If that person instead spent that entire music budget on purchasing albums from select musicians according to the enjoyment they derive from their works, or buy concert tickets or merch, and decides to pirate the rest of their music listening, what changes? For the consumer, they are now left with actual, irrevocable access (legal and illegal) to the same music you had rented access to before, and have spent the same amount of money. For the musicians, the ones who received the purchases are left with much more of your dedicated music spend, and the rest will have marginally less (their share based on total streams of your monthly subscription x12). For Spotify and Taylor Swift, they receive marginally less money (but more than the artists you actually listen to) of which they should probably not have received to begin with.

  • Backing up Spotify

    Jump

  • I'm not sure how you think Spotify compensation works, but it is not a "one stream and you get paid"-deal, but rather a revenue share model where artists are compensated from a large pool by total streams. The main share of your Spotify monthly subscription that goes to compensating artists goes to Taylor Swift, Bad Bunny etc. Being a top listener to your favorite, but underground band contributes negligibly to what they actually get paid.

    If you care about their compensation, buy the album as directly from them as possible, or buy merch/go to concerts, and recommend their msuic to other people so they might end up paying customers. Subscribing to Spotify and thinking they get a fair deal out of that is not the way, and increasingly not the way (with their GenAI-shenanigans).
