So it stickers for lemmy basically

Okay, understood, so the idea is that the device connects to the streaming service independently and the PC client acts as a glorified remote. Sad that it doesn’t work.

Would it work with the mobile tidal app? Just curious, since that might be better as a “remote” than a static desktop pc.

Yeah I know of the AUR package, in fact I checked right before writing xD, that’s the “user built stuff” I mentioned, since the AUR is the Arch User Repository after all.

About the Wiim, I’m reading about it for the first time but it seems like it’s a LAN based audio device, right? I bet there’s some Linux application that is able to connect to it and create a virtual output device you can pick for the tidal app, or any other audio.

Me from the future before posting the comment: Yeah no, I checked, there isn’t. That’s weird because Wiim does have an open API to send an audio stream into it so you should be able to create an audio stream from any app and then link them… Like, an app that creates a local audio streaming server, links any app output into that server and then sends it to Wiim via its public API. It should be doable and offer a lot more flexibility, but I guess there’s not enough interest for someone to bother doing so. The one doing it should have a WIIM device to test too and the overlap between the people able to do this stuff and the people with a WIIM might not be that big give that’s a device that does a lot of stuff for you in theory.

uh, same. https://github.com/Mastermindzh/tidal-hifi

In fact spotify doesn’t support arch at all, all there is is user built stuff too. You have a flatpak version of spotify but sod o you of tidal-hifi.

Sorry if I sound rude but your jerking of spotify when it offers the same capabilities of user made stuff rubs me the wrong way.

Tidal was originally European but DayZ bought it up so it’s technically American now; Qobuz is french but it doesn’t have a “brain-dead radio mode”. Both have unofficial Linux clients.

Rn I use tidal because it’s on the top 3 of the ones that pay the most to artists iirc(quobuz is up there too) and it hasn’t had a huge American influence that I know of, but do your own research on the alternatives to see which suits you the most, there are tons of articles about them all.

Sure, but they don’t know, people lie. If we put in a balance your feeling being hurt vs them being murdered and/or raped, I’d say that unfortunately it’s better for now for you to feel bad.

I’m knowledgeable about operating systems.
I’m good with math.
I eat junk food and drink energy drinks/soda.
I read about new techniques but am very wary of heavily marketed stuff.
I read a ton of Asian comics.

People assume that I know how to do webpages, they don’t know what a web developer is. No, I don’t know l. Well barely but not really, I’m a data engineer goddammit.

In school? Just marginalised can mean kids not wanting to be your friends, having difficulties forming groups for activities… All sorts of stuff that make your life harder. The word comes from the literal sense of being put to the margin, to the side, outside of the general circle.

It can easily devolve into being bullied aka made fun of for being different, kids using hurtful aliases to call you, hit you, abuse you…

Depends on where you live and all that but being singled out/marginalised can easily leave you in a position where bullies will pick on you and since you are alone, no one will defend you.

Made to feel different is a subtle way to say that she was marginalised. We are talking about school, so probably a gentle way to say she was bullied for it.

Also, she did mention getting singled out. I am pretty pedantic myself but dude, this is not the moment.

So are lgbt+ people, they are clearly a minority and yet their visibility is very important for the preservation or creation of their rights.

Yes, everyone is different, but normalising that difference instead of marginalising it is important.
