I think there's a free trial of the HiFi version, which is what I have. Sound quality is significantly better than other services, since I'm pretty sure they use FLAC when it's available, and high-bitrate MP3 (I think) for their low-bandwidth mode. Either way, their lowest-quality encoding settings are better than Spotify's old top-tier ones.

Welcome to the Fediverse, I guess.

It does, though it's not exactly front and center on certain apps. For instance, in my car, I had to scroll most of the way down the main screen to find the radio stations. They are very good, though. They give a decent mix of stuff you've favorited and things you've never heard before, with the notable exception of the Steven Wilson radio station, which plays almost exclusively bands that Steven Wilson has been in, which alone is more than enough to fill up a whole radio station.

ITT: People being mad at Seattle.

Yeah, but that money actually goes to the artists. It's got one of the best rates for that out of all the streaming services.

Not sure why you're getting downvoted. Having practical applications for higher math makes that shit stick like glue when otherwise it would get forgotten immediately after the test.

Tidal is quite good for music. The selection is missing stuff at times, but that usually doesn't last long since I'm pretty sure that only happens when there's some kind of contract renegotiation or something.

I mean, technically y'all aren't part of Europe anymore...

At least we all got one last Halloween together :')

I definitely get chronic migraines from my ex, so I think you might be onto something.

I was gonna say, I can not only taste the difference, but I also get violent diarrhea whenever I drink the zero-sugar sodas.

 

Here I was, contentedly living my life not making fucking bread, and y'all had to come along and tempt me with delicious rolls n shit. So now I've made a big fucking loaf of white bread and it's goddamn delicious and all I can think about is making more motherfucking bread.

I blame all of you.

spoiler
Thank you for making me make bread tho

 
 

Hey guys. I've been having an ongoing problem with my desktop where, when it goes into suspend, it'll shut down instead of waking back up. Not a hard shutdown, either, but what appears to be a proper shutdown where everything gets nicely SIGTERM'd and everything.

Now, I'm saying all that just in case it's related to what happened today. I stepped away from my machine after having it play Youtube videos through the night and came back to it about an hour later to find that it had been shut down. There was no indication of an improper shutdown, either, since the usual "hey, you hard powered off and now your disk needs to be fsck'd" messages weren't there. The logs stop right before when I assume the shutdown happened, but there's nothing in them that really sticks out as a possible reason for why it would have happened.

Getting to the point, is there somewhere other than journalctl and dmesg that I should be looking to try and figure out what happened? I'm on Fedora 43, and I'm happy to provide whatever logs are necessary. I'm really hoping it's not a hardware fault, but I've had other problems that seem to indicate the PCIe port on my motherboard starting to go bad such as inexplicable static on one monitor and my GPU disconnecting whenever my cat jumps down from my lap too hard.
