She looks bored out of her mind lol, “c’mon Uma you can do this, think about the swimming pool this movie’s gonna pay for…”

Yes, but everything above it (including drivers) is custom-made and tightly controlled by Google.

My tech-illiterate mom uses my Jellyfin instance with no issues. I sent her a link to the app store, her credentials, my server’s hostname and that was it. And once it’s set up, Jellyfin is much more straightforward to use than Plex.

Sure Jellyfin has issues and doesn’t support as many types of devices, but Plex is far from perfect. I use it like twice a year, and the UI gets more and more confusing with each update IMO.

Yeah, if they’re not lying it will be the worse phone ever made. The US-made Purism Liberty is $2000 and has similar specs to the Asia-made, $800 Librem 5, which is already overpriced compared to Android devices.

Yeah but if the script which initiates the connection to the local server is blocked there’s no connection to intercept in the first place.

Nah, the script connects to a server run by the Instagram or Facebook app and feeds it info, bypassing isolation mechanisms entirely. I think ublock or other script-blocking add-ons might work though.

Yeah the point is just to soften the populace to the idea. Our fucking PM covered for pedophile priests in a Catholic school 30 years ago, he doesn’t give any fuck about kids.

Yes ! Counter-Strike 1.6 runs natively on linux. Just install Steam then CS as you’d do on Windows.

Warcraft 3 (original and reforged) should work through Wine. You can install it manually, or with a tool like Lutris.

I agree, but as a mobile dev I wish they’d leave the OS alone instead of “optimizing” it, creating new exceptions to the rule and edge cases in the process…

Yeah, with Arch the install and initial setup is the hard part, but they do that for you so I don’t get the point of going with Manjaro.

That’s just not true, chatgpt & co are hugely popular, which is a big part of the issue.

Why bother switching then?

Plex sucks but jellyseer, the *arr stack and jellyfin are all open source and entirely free. Together they provide an experience almost as straightforward as any commercial streaming platform: find a media on jellyseerr and request it with a single click. A few minutes* later the media is available in Jellyfin, and you can watch it on your computer, smartphone, smart TV, …

*with Usenet and a good internet connection

I know, I meant that although I’m interested in the tech I’ve barely tried it.

Well I do want this, augmented/virtual reality is exactly the kind of shit I dreamt about as a kid during the 90’s, and having a huge screen available anywhere I go is pretty fucking cool.

But yeah, I used a VR headset exactly once for like 5 minutes, and there’s no way in hell I’d buy one from meta or apple. If Valve releases good XR/AR glasses I might consider it.

Refuses to elaborate

Windows 11 home costs more than $200???

I can work at my desk using only my laptop. Do I want to, and is it my actual setup? No, and no. My laptop is plugged into my ultra wide screen, my mechanical keyboard and my mouse. That’s what he meant, and that’s what I found interesting.

Yeah, if an app posts any kind of notification it definitely needs background usage permission.
