As well as allowing you to buy music DRM-free so you can download and keep it, even if the release is removed/replaced on their side. Made dropping Spotify a much easier choice.

Appreciate your work. I used to have a Crunchyroll and Hidive subscription before Hidive left and Crunchyroll used noticeably terrible and unchecked MTL subs (specifically The Yuzuki Family's Four Sons, that was a complete mess. "Brother Falcon" still lives more in my head than the name of the series itself, so I searched "Crunchyroll Brother Falcon" to find the series name). Crunchyroll also constantly just kept missing their own release times, and there were multiple occasions before I ended my subscription where they just didn't release the English subs as well, for example only having Spanish subs just after release. It's just been so much better doing it this way.

Payday 2 beat it by about 2 months for me when they announced the subscription, followed by a sale announcement the next day as well.

HDMI Forum blocking the implementation of HDMI 2.1 in open source drivers. Really sucks for people who want to use their systems connected to TVs.

Which doesn't work with HDMI 2.1 if you use an AMD GPU on Linux. You know, the thing the first comment in this thread was complaining about.

Sure, but most TVs don't, which is the main issue with wanting to connect any Linux AMD build to a TV

I mean, sure it looks a bit odd, but if you remove the trackpads and reshape the controller based on not having those then it's a pretty standard controller, no? It's not like the added part for the trackpads does anything to change how you would hold the controller or anything, so I doubt it'd make much of a difference in use even if you never use the trackpads.

I did notice that in this picture, but I don't think it actually is. Pretty sure this is from the "animation" where the puck with the USB cable is put under the controller to charge, and not with the USB cable connected to the controller. From what I see though it should all be centered, even the puck and charging pins, so not sure why they made it off-center here

Finally, another worthwhile controller with symmetrical sticks. Now to find out how to get my hands on one...

I've been using Strawberry for my local music for a bit, might not be the most modern looking, but I'd say it's decent. You can set folders to be scanned, and if you double click an artist's folder in the "collection" menu it'll add all their songs to the queue in whatever order you're sorting by. It'll at least remember the last played song, so just pressing play should start that song assuming you didn't clear the queue. Doesn't seem to remember how far into the song you were before closing it if that's what you're after though.
