@WrCombs said in What Are You Doing Right Now:Here we are still 6 feet apart (as suggested by local authority) and have no limitations on work. What would you say to the grocery stores in this matter, I wonder? or the Gas stations? are they too in the same boat of not caring?
What about the restaurants that are open still for Takeout? They can't work from home.Of course the grocery stores and restaurants need to have people arrive - they can't stock shelves from home, or cook food from home...
But you - you can troubleshot via the phone from home, you can make sales calls from home, and when, that hopefully rare case requires you to visit onsite, if you don't have stuff at home to bring, then you'll drive to the office, pick it up and go to the client - then return home.

I think if everyone worked from home for at least 2-3 weeks this would go away, so I understand why we should
You're kidding, right? This thing is with us for the rest of human time. Just like the Flu. Over time we'll likely get some type of herd immunity, so fewer people will get sick and die.
During the press conference yesterday - they were guessing that someone who recovers from Covid-19 is likely immune for 3 years, before the antibodies leave your body fully.

Would the Spread not stop?

Does the spread of Flu stop?
It comes back every year. Covid will do the same. I'm not even sure it's possible to completely wipe it out, but to do so would likely require social distancing and everyone staying home for like 6 months.
they are reporting that Covid can live in your body for 30+ days... what I don't know is how long you remain infectious.

Been a while since I've tried Emby Media server.

So in the millenial facts list....
One fact: Millennial are crippled by financial debt, primarily from student debts, more than other generations.
Second fact: A vastly higher percentage of millennial went to university compared to other generations.
Um, yeah, duh. Why don't they even mention these two facts together - when people who have no business going to college spend time and money on college instead of working, they go into debt and it generally cripples them. The difference is that millennials are unique in believing that college was their right and responsibility and didn't see it in the context of it helping them get jobs.

I've been running Kodi using Emby as a backend. It's seamless, and displays through the Kodi frontend. And it transcodes on the fly. I've played a 4K movie transcoded to my laptop over WiFI without blocking or skipping once.

That has nothing to do with Kodi or Emby and everything with the CPU available to whatever is running your media server to do the re-encoding on the fly.

If one has a good graphics card, is it better to use that for re-encoding when using Kodi, Emby or Plex?

I did not know I can use mstsc as a remote viewer (shadow) and control a computer.

Since I run in a VM in a computer without any graphics functionality beyond basic, I have no idea.

First time setting up a domain (personal domain) for emails. I'm using Zoho Mail.
I don't like ZoHo's interface. I've been debating what to do with a few personal domains I have.
Neither do I, but $12 / year for my eddiejennings.net E-mail and have some clear separation from personal and business (O365 business essentials) is a great deal.

How did you get a picture of my chair?

@scottalanmiller lol. I'm constantly vacuuming because the chair keeps shedding.

Yeah try a few opensource/free ones but found that the easiest and quickest to go from setup, upload, and play back.
