You underestimate how much noise cars make. I'm 20 meters from my neighbors and I never hear a peep. Meanwhile, I'm a kilometer from the highway and I can hear always hear it at least a little bit (and a lot when the wind is in my direction). So you have to go really low density, like 1 house per square kilometer and 5 kilometers of dirt road before even reaching a regional road, to go quieter than this, but... unsurpisingly, not many people live there.

The 25 miles is a bit much, but if your instrument/sporting gear can fit in a bag, you can carry it on a bike. There's backpacks for guitars, cellos and tubas and I regularly see kids cycling to their lessons with those. This is a fairly dense town though, so 5km max (20 minutes at child-speeds). Kids also can't drive cars, so if it's not happening by bike, it's not happening at all.

I remember a comic too, but the original story is The Egg by Andy Weir. https://www.galactanet.com/oneoff/theegg_mod.html

If there is a comic and someone finds it, please link it.

Edit: found a comic by voldult on Webtoons, but that isn't it. I remember a denser, darker style. Now I'm doubting my memory. Maybe I just read the story and imagined a comic based on the cover art?

At a glance, the watermark made it look like you had scars on your right arm. You shouldn't scare people like that (⁠ꏿ⁠﹏⁠ꏿ⁠;⁠)

And I initially read the meme as "Taking the train", "Taking the train to Germany". Flashbacks to '45, you must understand.

Reading the other comments, it seems OP selected the wrong source and got ads that way. I tried to reproduce the situation by selecting a movie that was only available from Plex's streaming service and it said "The Films & TV source is currently disabled and will be re-enabled if you decide to continue." In my Plex account settings, under Online Media Sources, I disabled those sources.

https://support.plex.tv/articles/discover/

I'm trying to figure out how I disabled "More Ways to Watch" on my account or server, I actually kinda liked the ability to find stuff even if it isn't on my server yet.

Edit: Didn't disable it, just needed to update my server. Now I think I should disable it anyway, because it's gumming up my search results honestly.

Wait, in what situations does Plex show ads? I thought Pass only unlocked some features like watching in the Plex app on your phone (which I never use). I have Plex running on a NAS on my local network and only access it from that same network (Chromecast, the web interface on that same NAS, DLNA) and I've never seen any advertising.

When I give my sister external access through Plex Web, is it possible for her to get advertising even with Plex Pass? Should I help her set up a VPN into my network? I think I'd feel safer if we had the exact same experience, so hers won't deteriorate without me noticing.

You can do either, but you usually do neither. The best way is to throw a new exception for your situation and add the caught exception as an inner exception. Because rethrowing resets the stack trace, removing the context from an exception message that is often pretty vague, and "bouncing" with throw; doesn't tell the next exception handler that you already handled (part of) the exception.

Jerboa shows the link (and options of how to open it) when you long-press. It would be nice if we could set that as the default behavior though, I never open a link before seeing where it goes first.

Edit: issues go here: https://github.com/LemmyNet/jerboa/issues

This is probably because of a lack of training data, where it is referencing only one example and that example just had a mistake in it.

The one example could be flawless, but the output of an LLM is influenced by all of its input. 99.999% of that input is irrelevant to your situation, so of course it's going to degenerate the output.

What you (and everyone else) needs is a good search engine to find the needle in the haystack of human knowledge, you don't need that haystack ground down to dust to give you a needle-shaped piece of crap with slightly more iron than average.

After almost 2 years, Roshan's pit is back where it belongs. I think the pit switch is a good solution to the Pit Problem, but sticking those pits all the way in the corners made it really difficult to contest a Roshan attempt. You needed to commit pretty hard just to get there and then the terrain was pretty difficult to get a good Blink angle on too. Now we have it back in the middle of the map and it will be fun to see the dynamic plays around there. And I hope to see Roshan barreling through a team fight in the mid lane during TI 2025.

Have to add that we work exclusively in strongly-typed languages. Kinda want to see how it plays out, but I can't help but argue with him, so I think I'll just go.

 

Getting +18 mult from Ride the Bus, +24 mult from Blueprint (looking at Erosion), +24 mult from Erosion, x1.5 mult from holographic Scholar and another x1.5 mult from a copied holographic Scholar for a total of nearly 19000 points. If I play an ace, it's not even that much more, only 8 mult from the Scholars? Trying to whittle my deck down to only aces so I can play four of a kind, but even then most of the mult will be Erosion.
