Looks like OP updated the title after the other commenter had commented.
Result: Caps lose, 3-1.
Next up: Off to Chicago Tuesday night (that’s tonight!) for the second of back to back road games.
the road win streak is over, womp womp
It’s a lot easier if you have an office job, even easier if you’re full time remote. My experience has been the first round is over the phone, in which case before the pandemic I used to just go find an empty meeting room or go out to my car to take the call. For in person interviews, I’ll “have an appointment” and take a half day.
Result: Caps win, 4-2.
Next up: Back on the road, in Dallas Monday night—that’s tomorrow night!
Still finding ways to win without the Great 8!
Result: Caps win, 2-1.
Next up: Hosting the Sabes at home Saturday night—that’s tonight!
Follow-up question: When you say 4G service was non-existent, did your phone show you had four bars but no messages would go through, or was it more like you had one bar / no service?
It just works (on my machine)

I figured this was the answer. It still makes me sad that I can’t legitimately stream content from the major streaming services in full HD on a regular laptop.
1080p all day. It’s a normal PC after all.
Right, but which streaming services are you watching?
So when you wanna watch Hulu or HBO, you just open up a web browser, go to the Hulu/HBO site, and play the content in the web browser in full HD? No bullshittery around limiting the playback to 720p in a browser?
Thinking out loud, is it possible to load the apps themselves (YouTube TV, Netflix, etc) onto Linux using an Android emulator?
Does your use case include watching content from Netflix and/or Hulu?
Piggy backing on this post to ask those running a mini-PC on their TV: How tf did you get content to actually stream in full HD? Whenever I try to use the web browser to watch hockey games through YouTube TV, or some random show through Netflix, I’m limited to 720p. Is there a workaround for this?
ETA I’m aware of an agent spoofer extension in Firefox, but it hasn’t solved this problem in my experience.
That’s impressive. My sorry excuse for a Caps shrine is a Caps hoodie with Caps beanie hanging from an over-the-door hook facing the hallway that connects my living room to my bedroom.
Welcome back! The Caps seem to be a third period team as of late. Hopefully they can start putting together three periods of hockey.
Thanks for the heads up. Unlike the previous case of federation delays where it seemed the delay was from lemmy.ml (my home instance) to lemmy.world, it looks like this latest delay was from lemmy.world to lemm.ee. If you visit this health checker site, it shows a spike in federation time starting Fri 12/6 and resolving on Sun 12/8. Oddly, the spike seems to only have affected lemmy.world-to-lemm.ee federation because the chart showing federation from lemmy.world to other instances looks flat for that same time period.
I hope that it’s just transient and doesn’t become a normal recurrence, but for my part, one thing I can do is start posting the game threads earlier in the day so there’s as much time as possible for the federation to do its thing.
Dope. What game are we looking at in that photo?
There are organizations that purport to be Yelp alternatives, such as Open Reviews Association, but I haven’t seen anything with widespread integration or adoption. It’s a cool idea nonetheless.
