There are no good movies anymore.

Counting Dogs And Broken Films
Athena apparently knows exactly how many treats she’s supposed to get, while my dad’s old home movies proved a little less cooperative. Between updating my genealogy site and repairing a broken 8mm film, it was a surprisingly busy quiet week.

My kids wanted to watch a Blink-182 video ("ahaha they run naked") which led me to think about the preponderance of "college" in US culture.
College movies, college music, college as definition of success (even for dropouts) and so many other examples.
In other words, almost our entire world is broadly based on what male twentysomethings find ideal.
And we wonder why everything's going to shit?
Athena apparently knows how to count. At least, she knows when I short her one treat.
Meanwhile, I upgraded my genealogy site and managed to break one of Dad’s old 8mm films during digitization. Fortunately, it broke at a splice, and I found a clever way to repair it.

Since we're on the topic of “disk almost full":
tmutil listlocalsnapshotdates / |grep 20|while read f; do tmutil deletelocalsnapshots $f; done
Deletes lokal time machine snapshots
Another good candidate may be iChat History at ~/Library/Containers/com.apple.iChat
All messages including pictures and movies of the last like 10 years are stored there. So if you use iChat (aka Messages) a lot this is BIG.
It took me about 1 to 2 hours and a #RaspberryPi 4 to set up my own #Jellyfin installation.
This is basically a „private #Spotify“ with your own music (also handles movies/shows but I‘m not using that). With Manet, there‘s also a very slick iOS app to use with the Jellyfin server.
