The feature from web browser I use most that is missing from the Roku app is the option to increase playback speed.
If you’re really a/the Roku app dev, cheers. I recognize it’s a passion project for a lot of those involved and I am grateful.
Roku has a Jellyfin app.
Roku device locked down with parental controls + Jellyfin app connected to your server + a non-admin Jellyfin user account so they can’t click all the buttons.
The Roku aoo isn’t great for my use because it’s stripped down. Maybe a benefit in your case.

Having something under my lower back sounds awful. Head and knees, yes, but back?
I kinda want to get a gourd and stencil “Stanley” on the side.
I suspect your algorithm has offered you a biased sampling.
As of the 2010’s, 79% of Fantasy/Sci-Fi genres bestselling books were written by men.
Source, also contains other interesting author demographics.
I’m in my 30s. My parents raised us with old-timey gender roles, expecting the girls to cook and clean and the boys to, idk, get used to being served?
It did neither side any favors. One brother had some very difficult lessons to learn when a way-out-of-his-league girlfriend told him what’s what. They’re married now and he’s pretty candid about how bullshit those gender roles were and how he’d never setup a son for failure by not teaching them basic life skills of cleaning and feeding themselves, nor teach a daughter she has to shoulder it all.
Finding myself in a relationship with a man who plays weaponized incompetence games to manipulate me into traditional gender roles is my nightmare. I got taken advantage of in some of my earliest relationships and I now attempt to vet for it better up front. I can say there are certainly still men who don’t think it’s their job to clean, but I think it’s better with each generation.
IDK if women are any better, we might need a 50/50 bi person for their perspective.
I won’t get romantically involved with anyone who deeply believes and allows religion, especially organized religion, to drive their lives.
I was raised Catholic. I have seen too many people use their religion to shirk responsibility for their evils.
Washington State mandatory reporter law changes are a great example. In the US it varies by state but in general, people in trusted positions like teachers, police officers, medical professionals, and counselors are required to report child abuse. Priests have had a special exception, even if they were acting as teachers or counselors. Last month, Washington removed the special exception for priests. The Catholic Church is now sueing to keep the right for priests to keep child abuse secret. Ponder that, these people who would put their magical ceremonies over the health, safety, even lives of children. What is the point of that religion? Because it sure isn’t about helping people live good lives.
And Jesus said, “Let the children alone, and do not hinder them from coming to Me; for the kingdom of heaven belongs to such as these … unless they’re being abused and you wait until you’re in the special room with me, chant some special words, and then tell me. Then fuck’em. No, literally, we’ll keep the pedophilia on the down low because the ceremony is more important than the kids”.
60% work from home “office”, 30% on site at an assembly and test facility, and 10% visiting customers to fix problems. Not sure where that falls. I do a mix of technical and customer service and office work so who knows.
100%. I’ve recently added the “Grunt Style” tshirts to my red flag catalog.
The sliding closet door fell off and nearly hit me. The chair had, um, what I assume were fresh bodily fluids based on the … glisten. The sink was clogged.
Yeah, I would advise using against using it today. Like, I said, old timey. Not as acceptable as it might have been in decades past.
I’m middle millennial and consider it flippant at best. Like “chick flicks” and “chick lit” are seen as less serious/valuable/artistic than media intended for men. “Hot chick” as a way to value/devalue a woman on looks alone.
Most I can think of at the moment are derogatory.
A “dog” is a person pushing their horniness to inappropriate levels.
A “cow” is someone fat and slow/stupid.
A “shark” is a savvy business person who edges into taking advantage of people unethically.
A “snake” is a liar and a cheat. Sometimes slang for a penis.
Quiet, shy people are “mousy”.
Someone who tattles to cops/authority is a “rat”.
A “chick” is an old-timey term for a girl/woman that might get you slapped.
A “kitty” is a vagina and also may get you slapped depending on context.
Someone messy/dirty is a “pig”. “Pig” might also be used for a man who is rude and pushing sexual innuendos onto women without their consent.
While to “go the whole hog” means to not hild back, to embrace doing a thing completely.
Who remembers when Radio Shack carried actual radio components?
I don’t, but grew up hearing the tales.
Ah, thanks for the explanation.
I would guess the next set of features “missing” from the Roku app have similar reason then. 1) I use a plugin to search and download subtitles from the browser interface; it would be great to be able to do that from the Roku app too and 2) once subtitles are available, easily adjusting the offset.
