YouTube confirms your pause screen is now fair game for ads in c/technology@lemmy.world

Yes in fact I teach it and do it regularly. Out of hospital cardiac arrest survival rates are atrocious even when the person performing CPR is properly trained, let alone a panicked person trying to look up instructions on YouTube.

And I'm 100% not saying that a person shouldn't attempt to do CPR in this scenario, just saying that any realistic scenario where the compressor is trying to look up instructions in real time is bound to fail. That's why I volunteer my time teaching community members how to do it properly, even if it's hands-only CPR (eg no rescue breaths)

TV-friendly YouTube frontend (mander.xyz)
 

Hi all,

I'm building a media center PC and am looking for a tv-controller friendly UI for YouTube. My best case scenario is basically Smarttube as is available on Android TVs. It is a perfect app, but I believe it's not attainable on desktop.

I'm willing to use either Windows or Linux, and have a moderate level of competence in the latter.

I'd prefer that it function well with Kodi. Is the Kodi YouTube plugin any good? Another option I'd like to explore is Freetube or Invidious, but a surface level amount of research hasn't shown me any TV-like UIs.

Previously, I've used a spoofed user agent to trigger YouTube's native TV UI, but it's pretty shit and I'd prefer to not go there directly in any case.

Any insight is appreciated, even if it's a suggestion to post this to another community. Thanks in advance.

I can't access my Jellyfin library right now because the backend is apparently too old (wtf).

Are you using the binhex image by any chance? I had this same problem, just had to update it from the apps/community center page instead of from the docker page.

Yeah I agree the control scheme contributes to the difficulty quite a bit. Between the dodging as you described and the lack of animation cancelling leading to "queueing" actions, you definitely need to be deliberate about what you're doing.

The DLCs are historically challenging for sure, but the first few bosses make Friede look slow imo.

I'm two rememberance bosses in and having a good time. My main criticism is that the bosses are AGGRESSIVE. They seem to be balanced with summons in mind because you almost have to draw the bosses attention away to get in decent damage. Still fun tho.

I've noticed some frame rate decrease in the open world and some minor bugs. I'm not sure if that's my fault tho; I bought a fancy new graphics card and cranked up all the settings, and I'm not sure if my relatively older CPU and RAM are keeping up.

Unless I'm misunderstanding, I do believe it is that simple, yes.

Pop!_OS Wake from Bluetooth (mander.xyz)
 

Just switched over my windows 10 gaming rig to PopOS, and have gotten it to work pretty well, with some minor bug squashing.

However, one bit of functionality from Windows that I haven't been able to reproduce is the ability to wake the computer from sleep when I turn on my Bluetooth PS5 controller.

My Bluetooth card is PCI, and I've located the hardware address using "bluetoothctl list" but from there don't really know what to do.

Some topics online have suggested going into the sys/bus/PCI/devices directory and finding a /power/wakeup setting, but I can't figure out which of the "0000:00:whatever's" correlate to my Bluetooth card, if I'm even in the right place at all.

Another thing I'm not sure I understand is pop's sleep settings. It seems to be either monitor off or suspend. I feel like what I want may not be possible from full suspend and there is often an intermediate sleep setting on other OSs?

Can anyone point me in the right direction? Thank you.

Tailscale Function Question (mander.xyz)
 

I've recently installed tailscale as a plugin on my Unraid NAS with the *arr suite and random other things on it.

I was under the impression that once I had everything set up, I would be able to access my LAN services the exact same way remotely as if I was at home connected to WiFi, specifically with their local 192.168.1.x:xxxx addresses.

What I've found is that I can't do that with the local addresses, but tailscale provides me with a separate external address that I can use with the proper port numbers for the Unraid containers, which I've added via the subnet router function, although I don't totally understand how that works tbh.

Beyond that, I have a raspberry pi that runs home assistant, and I expected to be able to access that as well, but haven't been able to figure that out. Must I install tailscale on that device as well? I thought that by using my NAS as an exit node, I'd be able to get to it.

Pardon my ignorance and thank you for your help.
