And then the all go to a landfill near you

I must assume you’re talking about LG and Apple laptops both.

I believe the gram is know to have decent build quality. I’m sure it doesn’t compare to an M series Mac when it comes to performance and battery life, but at least I could put Linux on it.

I’m like actually excited for updates to my operating system. That hasn’t been true for Android or Windows in years. The last I remember being excited for an update was iOS on my iPod Touch, but from what I hear, people aren’t even really that hyped for iOS updates any more.

I think the logic would be that it’s easier to use more data on a computer and while using multiple devices. On my phone I sometimes get full speeds while tethered, and sometimes get half a Mbps.

bye bye to Adobe and moved on with DaVinci Resolve.

This is the way. I skipped Adobe entirely due to how they conduct business. I really wish Resolve had better Linux support though. Like, it works and I use it, but having to use a third party tool (make resolve deb) is ridiculous.

Additionally, Gimp is just not on the level of Photoshop, at least from what I understand, I’ve never used photoshop. I mostly long for smart select tools where I can, for example, just circle a person and have them selected. Also, content aware fill would be incredibly nice to have. Of course neither of those things are worth shoveling money out of my wallet into Adobe’s.

Do any cell phone plans allow for unlimited Hotspot data? That’s my largest issue with doing that, I use more than 50GB every single month.

Or, at the very least, a reverse proxy.

Linux, in my experience, has been way less painful to set up than Windows. It takes like 1/4 of the time, and I don’t end up with half my shit in One Drive because I misclicked.

I initially though that, but then read your comment and thought it was about someone leaving a job being a creator on YouTube, not leaving a job at the company YouTube.

It’s game streaming, except you stream an entire PC.

To elaborate on this, since watching this video I’ve paid attention to how sponsorships provide discounts to viewers of creators, and it’s often via URLs. eg. service.com/creator_name, not with a discount code. That way, a website can track how many people went to the URL, not how many used whatever code is associated with that URL.

As an additional blocking measure, maybe a website could simply create a different listing for the same product instead of relying on discount codes, this different listing only being accessible via the creator links. I’m not sure if Honey would figure out how to navigate that as well or not, swapping the item in the cart or whatever.

I’d totally be interested to hear more on how companies deal with this, and if there are better ideas than the one I came up with as I typed this comment.

BeamNG is another example of this. That said, it’s one of the highest selling automotive games on Steam iirc.

Yeah, it’s almost exactly the same in terms of software maintence, but of course you don’t actually host anything. I like the idea that, if the WWW goes down, I’ll still be able to control my smart home (locally of course) and such. Using a VPS is like semi-self hosting. I can’t really think of a good term for it, so I can see why it’s still grouped into self hosting.

Yeah, I have dabbled in that with streaming to multiple platforms via a VPS. It definitely is stretching the definition of self hosting.

Ahh, that makes sense. When I think of self hosting, I think of using your own hardware.

What’s the benifit of E2EE file storage on a self hosted server? I use FileBrowser Quantum, and it’s super nice, as I can access the same shared drives that I access at home.

I have a Hisense that I’ve never connected to the internet. It has an input button on the remote, and I just use that to go between inputs. I’m only reminded it’s a smart TV when the power goes out and I see the Google TV boot screen.

Using that would require having my TV connected to the internet, which I refuse to do.

Wait, I heard about this and assumed the money had changed hands in the opposite direction. Why the fuck would Disney be paying OpenAI to use their intellectual property? That’s not how that has ever worked.

Watching Technology Connections recent final (probably not final) video on dishwashers made me really want an open source dishwasher where you can program your own cycles. Maybe over the next few years hacking appliances will become common, doing what Valetudo has done for robot vacuums.
