Google’s own Shaka sdk (video playback with ads) gives ad markers in the initial video manifest so that they can be marked on the timeline, so hopefully it’ll be trivial. Usually (but not always) with SSAI, the ads are spliced into the stream just before being sent to the client. That way if a user has just recently watched an ad pod, the server can choose to ignore that marker for a better UX in hopes that they don’t bounce if ads are too frequent.
But how do you keep it from just sinking down into the pocket every 20mins? That’s the guide I need.
I run both side-by-side, but for me Plex is still the clear winner right now for features and polish.
Sure. Obviously it’s more complex than that, but it helps illustrate where the math came from in the parent comment. I don’t know why Tidal pays more, but I’m hypothesizing its because most of their “co-owners” of Tidal are themselves, artists/musicians, which IMO is significantly better than the out of touch folks running Spotify.
Think of it not in terms of revenue percentages, but by payouts per song stream:
Service | Payout/song | Plays to make $1 |
---|---|---|
Tidal Music | $0.01284 | 78 |
Apple Music | $0.008 | 125 |
Amazon Music | $0.00402 | 249 |
Spotify | $0.00318 | 314 |
YouTube Music | $0.002 | 500 |
Pandora | $0.00133 | 752 |
Deezer | $0.0011 | 909 |
So song for song, Apple is paying 2.5x what Spotify is (.008/.00318), and Tidal is paying out a whopping 4x what Spotify pays.

Yeah I’m on the free plan which used to include FLAC and 320kpbs, but they stopped doing that for free plans about a year ago I think.
I’ve been using deemix, and for the most part it’s been pretty seamless. Stuff direct downloads instantly, but it’s all in 128kbps now unfortunately. Then I have lidarr monitor everything for a lossless version.
You should check out Plexamp while you bridge the gap. It has tidal support built in, and you can self-host your own collection as you build it up. Then when you’re done with tidal, you don’t have to learn or download a new app.
Aren’t they all still WebKit under the hood though? Until they allow other web engines this is still just the illusion of choice.
This is what I use and it works great.
Apple repairs all hardware for 5 years after the last day they officially sell the hardware.
The oldest phone that still runs the newest version of iOS was released in 2018, so frankly I’m not sure what you’re talking about.
As nitefox said already, you can start the steam deck on desktop mode and it’s already running Linux with KDE. My first thought when I read your post was also that Steam Deck could be exactly what you need. Plus they just refreshed it with better thermals, battery life, and display. A usb c dock would get you a pretty decent dev machine on a budget. Plus it’s great for retro gaming.
Rockstar should absolutely just hire this kid as a whitehat instead.
I don’t see how the term “Alchemy” is any different than “Transubstantiation”, and the Catholic Church seems pretty down with that.
Imagine living your entire life with this kind of fear. Religion does crazy things to people’s minds.
I did read it - what I meant is that I think the author of the article was mistaken.
The view-state sync feature and all the social stuff is def opt-in though. Of course they made it super easy to do the opt-in, they want to push that feature, but I remember I did have to actively choose both of those things after the update.
Obviously I don’t really want my “friends” getting weekly emails about what I’m watching, but I don’t know — If I were self-hosting my own porn, maybe I’d take 5 extra seconds to read the screen that says stuff about sharing activity.
Not when there are pearls to be clutched.
