Deca Joins is another good Taiwanese band. I recommend the Audiotree live session.

The cost has shot up and down post COVID. Cat6 is typically the better option as it uses thicker conductors. Cat6 is 23ga iirc. I paid $85 for 1000ft on my last project

Didn't realize that was part of the spec. But wouldn't that be 4 devices? 2 wires per device for tx/rx and power +/-.

I love PoE, but there are some hard limitations to that idea. Mainly cost per meter of cable, but also in the amount of runs that would need to be completed to accomplish that. I cant splice two ethernet cables together and run one to a nearby light or other device without a switch, which means more equipment or more cable to make it work. Also, being 48v, it will have a lower overall efficiency compared to direct wiring with 110-220v, especially with the higher resistance of ethernet vs 14ga romex. That being said, I'd love to see 48v dc in home outlets.

reWASD is my go to for this reason. It emulates an xbox controller and they cant see the difference on their end.

I thought the same thing. Was looking for the overall color temperature of the scene, but none really fit.

People are ridiculous sometimes. These companies aren't going to eat millions of dollars per day in hosting costs to appease the minority who expect everything to just be given to them.

Dude, they ARE the advertiser. That's Google's main business. They have no incentive to export ANY of your account data to 3rd parties. Business tell them what groups of people to advertise to, and their systems handle the rest. They're open about how it all works.

I hated the transition. Tried every service afterwards and stuck with Amazon for a year or so until a bug on their end wiped all my recommendations and playlists. I gave YouTube music a shot and am pleasantly surprised by how far it's come. The auto generated playlists are spot on to my tastes and all my playlists from the GPM days were there. They fixed a lot of the UI problems too. For me, the price isn't bad at all for what they offer.

Boost was my go to for years. Now I'm here waiting patiently for Ruben to make it compatible with Lemmy

Unfortunately, if there's any hope of lemmy really taking off, they'll come eventually. All popular sites and services have to deal with it at some point.
