Because touch screens are cheap and put the onus of design onto the programmers of apps.

I think the person thought that you thought this was a generic cyberpunk genre comm and he was trying to shame you for shaming someone for not posting in the cp2077 comm. This stems from an issue with the Reddit cyberpunk genre subreddit.

There are three problems with that:
This is the cp2077 comm.
You know that.
And this isn't Reddit

That was when the credits happened at the start of the film. Now that the credits are at the end, most people would walk out before the trailers could play.

Stark made the suit with no help. He doesn't need a specific suit because he has the skill to invent whatever he may need.

At this point, Peter can't make himself a suit like that, so if he is nothing without it, he can't respect the power it brings. But he isn't nothing without it, which is what Stark is trying to teach him: not to rely on power of others.

The good news is you get a four hour erection.
The bad news is that you die within two hours.

Self host and buy the albums

Except they kill humans all the time.

I think it's just easier to accept that there is an unexplained reason why humans can generate some kind of power that's useful to the machines for something at some point between the winning of the war at the point of the movies.

Just ignore the fourth movie.

It matters because you can get used games for sometimes a tenth of the price they charge on the digital store.

Was it? You were in an open environment ~~and you could do the opponents in mostly any order~~.

Scratch that. I guess I'm think of post game when you can replay the battles.

New tab tools.

You can even do a trick to make it your home tab

I do mine from home assistant. I can leave location services, Bluetooth, and wifi, all on without worrying about battery life for the whole day.

Ok. I did not see what you meant.

I have a home zone that triggers things. I don't think location services uses enough battery for me to worry about

 

I'm looking for things like Amazing Race (all the spin-off countries), Survivor, Gladiators, Ninja Warrior, etc.

If I dip my toe into the Usenet thing, will I find this sort of stuff? Do I have to look in a certain spot? By this I mean do different servers tend to store different styles of catalogues, or do they network like a P2P system?

Apologies if I'm not making sense, I don't really know the correct jargon.

 

Is there a way to automatically create a playlist of more than 2 shows in broadcast order.

For instance, shows like Stargate (or I think Arrow/Flash/Supergirl) have alternating episodes. I really don't want to do it by hand; my Stargate playlist will have over 300 items.

 

Mixing Movies and TV: Stargate started with a feature film. Then a bunch of TV shows. Then some of the TV shows had TV movies.

At the moment I've just named the TV movies seasons 11, 12, 13. This fixes that specific instance, but doesn't allow me to put the feature film first (naming something season 0 creates a specials season). What about the X-Files? Seasons 1-5, movie, 6-8, movie. How would you fit that in to one section?

Documentaries: I've got a bunch of stuff. Some are traditional cinema movies, some are series, some are mini-series, some are TV shows. How can I have one library called "Documentaries"?

Collections: Collections are great. Can I keep them separate to the movies/TV? I don't think I want them in with the movies themselves. Can I mix and match movies and TV in a collection?

Concurrent Series: Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis overlapped seasons 8-10/1-3. Can I make a watch order collection? Have them in the broadcast order in one list? Including the movies?

Thank you. Plex is great.

 

I really want to get started.

I have a big library of files on a HDD. I will run it off my home computer, and it will be exclusively for my home network.

Question 1: Is it fine to run my desktop computer as a server and a client? I don't actually know how Plex works yet, so I may be describing it wrong. Currently I watch things on my Desktop Computer. I want to continue this but through Plex instead of just using VLC. If I do add more clients, only one will be viewing at a time. I do have a Raspberry Pi available, but was hoping to use it as a client at a later time instead of a server,

Question 2: Can I scan my media folder in Plex to get started, and then later rescan my Plex library after I rename files? I haven't reorganised all my files yet, a lot of them should be fine but I don't have time to do it all now. Some of them I may never bother renaming or reorganising. I don't mind Plex having to do all the posters and stuff again.

Question 3: What does Plex do for the re-encoding? I think I read that Plex encodes the video files. Does this create new files on the HHD? My drive is pretty full. I don't have enough space for duplicates in another codec. Does this process replace the files? Will I have to have my Plex drive only contain converted videos? Is there a process to encode from my storage drive to my Plex drive without disturbing my storgate drive? Space is at a premium and I don't want to risk Plex altering my media on my storage drive.

Thank you.
