Plot twist: they only interviewed people in Scandinavian countries between the months of June and July.

It was just…. ugh. 😞

Did Russell Crowe gain weight for a movie role, bc of health issues or because he discovered the all you can eat buffet on Carnival Cruises?

Little Seizures is my second favorite pizza place after Delicious Aneurysm.

Have you looked at snapcast? It’s one of the tools I’m going to evaluate for a similar use case. I’m not sure if it works with Plex OOTB but it the docs say it supports UPnP. Snapcast is actively maintained so you can just create an issue on github and see how they reply.

Are you US-based?

If your wife administers the injection at home, how do you acquire the injection? Would your allergist mail you the agent, would you need to pick it up from their office in person or would you pick it up at a local pharmacy after the MD sends in the Rx to that pharmacy?

1. As the other person commented, a locally-owned pharmacy is a reasonable option. Walgreens/CVS probably won’t be able to do it.

2. Any hospital infusion center can do this for you. I’d look for an oncology infusion center. Even though you are in immunology and not oncology, an OCN is incredibly skilled at giving sub-q injections. They are used to patients having adverse reactions to chemotherapy (anaphalaxis) and subsequently have the necessary training to make sure you will be fine.

3. Have your current MD personally call the MD at the local immunology clinic. Docs will, more often than not, grant other docs favors and considering that the new clinic would be able to bill for the immunological agent and also the administration of that agent (two separate fees), it’s not a huge favor to grant.

4. Get a local primary care doctor and have your immunologist’s office set up injections to be done in-clinic. This has the similar risk profile as the pharmacy administered injections. If you ask for this yourself, you will probably get turned down. If your allergist MD asks, the request will probably be granted.

Love job offers that begin with, “I apologize”

Same. I just know there is a lot more out there and hope those ppl chime in. 🤞

I use JF and tag my music with the MB ID too. Not what I’m asking.

I want to know if ppl use the playlist auto-generator plugins, lyrics plugin or others to enhance their experience.

Mildly racist

Okay but why did you put this in /c/cat ?

Correct. That very small thing is the difference between an app getting a dcma takedown order and not getting one.

Use Yattee and plug in your preferred invidious instance.

yup, that’s what I’m saying.

The general consensus in the AV1 community is that the SVT encoder implementation isn’t ready for HDR(10+) yet. There are some other encoders of AV1 (including Netflix’s proprietary implementation) that can do it well but basic SVT offered through the public repo is not ready for HDR yet.

Edit: I should add that I compress most of my library in 1080p with av1-svt. I only leave a couple of titles in 4k format and those I’m waiting to rip until SVT becomes mature enough to handle 4K.

That is how I encode (mostly SVT but a bit with NVEenc too). There is an av1 community here on lemmy but it isn’t super active. Otherwise, you’re limited to the handbrake forum or reddit.

Thank you!!

Timothée Besset, a software engineer who works on the Steam client for Valve, took to Mastodon this week to reveal: “Valve is seeing an increasing number of bug reports for issues caused by Canonical’s repackaging of the Steam client through snap”.

“We are not involved with the snap repackaging. It has a lot of issues”, Besset adds, noting that “the best way to install Steam on Debian and derivative operating systems is to […] use the official .deb”.

Those who don’t want to use the official Deb package are instead asked to ‘consider the Flatpak version’

Ha. Flatpak got the honorable mention.
