This is cool but I think it needs to have cloud saves to compare it to Plex.

I'd consider something like this if it also had the ability to keep track of and update game versions. Although I don't think that's realistic to consider at the moment.

    After the COVID trucker protests, the Canadian flag became a red flag.

    After the ongoing Albertan separation scandal, the Canadian flag has been redeemed and the Albertan flag is a red flag.

    I don't know why they don't find a better way to subsidize it. Like once purchased and played for x amount of hours $200 of steam credit is put on the account.

    Or they get 30% off 5 games they buy in steam with the account that activated the console.

    The kids do all the daily cleaning, they still don't have janitors. The school still has maintenance workers. I'm certain the large machinery would be handled by them and would be considered part of maintenance and not cleaning.

    I think you are right in that the schools are smaller, every square inch of urban area feels like 15 minute city material. So everything people need in daily life is within reach, small but numerous. I'm no expert though, just a tourist who visits his Japanese friends and asks lots of questions 😅

    In school, they don't have janitors. Because all the kids do the cleaning it takes the students about 15 minutes a day in school to clean it.

    I think it's the same in Taiwan.

    I wonder if Westerners had to clean at school if it affects us on a societal level to clean like that. Or if the larger social pressure isn't there for people to help like that.

    My first time in Japan I was so confused as to why it was so clean yet there were hardly any garbage cans anywhere. You had to return your garbage to the vendor you bought your food from, and not stray far from them, or bring it home. There was the rare garbage can.

    Once a week or two for me before I got my labrador retriever.

    Now once or twice a day vacuum and mop of the floor by the robo cleaner 😅

    Would never do it that often if I had to do by hand.

    Sometimes, when uploading to some sites, if I upload images with resolution and size within the correct parameters, the server doesn't re-compress the images. If the images do get compressed, then they come out looking degraded.

    I don't know if those settings are per-server.

    Does anyone know if there is a preferred resolution, file type and file size for photos and videos on pixelfed in general or pixelfed.ca?
