@ read-and-be-merry Thanks | worked really hard on it

Is there software that tracks movies and TV shows I've watched and lets me manually add them to my library?

I use Jellyfin, but it lacks this feature. I'm looking for a solution that allows me to create placeholders for shows or seasons I've watched elsewhere, without having to download or create empty MP4 files.

It would be even better if this software integrates with Jellyfin.

Seriously when did we branch to an alternative timeline?

Today's game is some more Halo PvP. We did a match on Capture the Flag and it was awesome. We usually only have 5 players, but we decided to do CTF and offset it by putting two of our skilled players together (Me and Another player), then one skilled player and some of the more beginner players together. It surprisingly was really well balanced. We were in a stalemate for half the game, and even after my team scored we still only won by one point.

We also did VIP on Halo 3, which i was going to pick for the main screenshot, but this is how it come out after capturing it and... i think the fog makes it really obvious why it wasn't my main screenshot.

We ended with Infection on Zealot (the reliable option), as always, it was a blast. I got zombie 4/5 rounds, and my teammates kept feeding themselves too the survivors who were camping out on the roof. It was still a good time though. I had a blast just hanging out and chilling with them even if i got destroyed in the post score.

We did all of this while waiting for our last guy to join us for Baldurs Gate 3. After the Zealot round he joined VC, so we dropped out and ended for the night to go continue BG3 (we got our asses kicked by some spiders and then fought some Living Trees, then i kicked the shit out of a squirrel thinking it biting me was a druid).

Good afternoon I want to use the same world war 1 soldier character to appear in different environments is there a way to do this i have tried with different types of text and image styles but they come up with different characters Many thanks

Taken with a $200 potato phone from my kayak. In the summertime the water is much higher, covered in lily pads, and the slots are boat-filled.

I am writing POSIX shell scripts quite often, mostly for speed and portability. Though, that might not even be needed, as bash might have gotten a speed increase compared to dash, ash and whatnot.

Here are some tests I plan to run to see if the speed difference is still the case

As my normal user shell I use fish since quite some time. I enjoy

• a simple PS1 that shows the git branch, git status, truncated path where I am
• autocompletion based on history
• autosuggestions from -h or --help even if the tool has no autocompletions in other shells
• abbr instead or alias is quite cool to not forget the actual commands. But I can live without

I dont use more features really. I have a couple of fish functions, and fish might just be a better bash with easier syntax. But bash is the standard, so I never use them anyways.

I wouldnt want to switch to zsh because it is weird permissively licensed. But if it is faster or better than bash, maybe?

I also like that fish is completely rewritten in rust. There is rusty-bash aka. sushi shell, anyone use that? Is is compatible with modules?

Are these extensions just scripts that you run on startup of the shell?

Hi I'm currently try to learn more about the history of piracy. I know that at some point I saved a very cool plain HTML website regarding that topic that was recommended here but I lost it :/ So now I hope you have cool sources. I'm only into the piracy since a couple of years so everything will be helpful.
