We shouldn't go all knee-jerk on this one. It's a solid first pass at allowing copyright owners to assert control over their own creations and getting paid for their work.

They've already got it mapped out.

YSK that if you can't find a book at the library, you can probably request another one to send it to yours via inter-library loan in c/youshouldknow@lemmy.world

ILL is the older system, where you make the request to the library and they go try to find it.

There's a newer "Link+" service where you can do the search yourself and request delivery to specific branches. Supported by a lot of member libraries, for example: https://sfpl.libanswers.com/faq/103121

In our library system, they don't put Link+ holds with normal holds. You have to go ask someone to look. We get an email that it's arrived and we have 3 days to pick it up.

Have no idea what's the context, but was curious what it all meant.

I don't take my fiancée out for dinner because she doesn't know how to order off a menu. in c/goodoffmychest@lemmy.world

What's the root concern? Cost, imbalance, or inconvenience?

  • If it's cost, she can pay for herself.
  • If it's imbalance, don't go 50/50. She can pay for whatever she wants.
  • If it's inconvenience (takes too long to order and get food), you can order and ask for your food to be brought out when ready. Or just wait, chill out, and enjoy some time together.

You should never worry about inconvenience to the restaurant or staff. Substituting is normal. If they can't do it, they'll tell you. Otherwise they'll happily provide the food and take the money. That's the social contract.

From your description, it looks like the main issue is #1 and #2. If so, a frank conversation should fix it. It may solve the problem, or uncover larger issues and expectations you should probably handle before getting married.

Advice on re-planting a 1-year old sapling (lemmy.world)
 

Last year, I got a bee in my bonnet that I wanted to plant a mulberry fruit tree in our back yard. Did some research and it looked like it would match our temperature zone. After some search, found a skinny but tall sapling (7ft tall, about 1" diameter, with a dozen small leaves) at a nursery not too far away. Got it home, miraculously without any damage.

Dug a 3'x1.5' wide hole in a spot. Soil was dense, clumpy, and full of roots and some construction debris (took them all out). It was also on an incline. Chose it since there weren't any other trees nearby to compete for nutrition. Added organic fertilizer at the bottom, planted the sapling, broke up the soil clumps before putting it back, and added more fertilizer on top.

On subsequent research, this is likely where I went wrong. Should have added loose, gardening soil instead of reusing the clumpy dirt. But I'm a dumbass and really new to this.

Fsst forward. Watered it every day for a month, then twice a week after that. Winter came and all the leaves fell out. We got a fair amount of rain. Now in a dry Spring stretch and I'm back to watering it twice a week. It has twice as many leaves, some fairly large, which is cool.

Thing is, we're a year out, but the trunk hasn't grown much in height or girth. I'm wondering if I messed up and should dig it up and re-plant it with fresh potting soil to give the roots more chance to expand? Or if doing so will damage the root structure? It's also in a reasonably sunny space (good), but also on an incline so a lot of water runs off (bad). I can move it to a more flat space, but that has a lot of shade.

Any suggestions? Replant it with loose soil? Move it to flatter, less sunny space? Or just let it be and see where it goes? Thanks!

Audio and subtitle sync issues (lemmy.world)
submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by fubarx@lemmy.world to c/jellyfin@lemmy.ml

I set up a 3-yo PC with internal SSD and latest Ubuntu. Am running latest Jellyfin in docker. Client is on an iPad mini. Not much traffic on network.

It finds all the titles fine, but when playing back, the sound is often out of sync by 2-5 seconds, and subtitles are off by 10-15 seconds. You can adjust the subtitle offset through trial and error and maybe get them close, but there's no way to adjust audio sync.

Disabled "Prefer fMP4-HLS Media Container" based on this recommendation: https://github.com/jellyfin/jellyfin/issues/11723

Rebooted and updated all parts. Still didn't fix the issue.

Any other suggestions? It happens across multiple titles.
