Only reason to choose Authy over anything else tbh. This just basically killed the product.

Personally I down voted once I read that somehow one of these laptops are on par with a high end gaming PC which is simply not true at all.

That kid is now known as the kid who got Roblox banned among their group of friends, not a nice thing to known for. This will be seen as a punishment by them regardless of how you frame it especially once the other kids at their school become aware of it.

Ouch. Good luck navigating this one as your kids get older.

Australia is a live example of the fact that they’re not. The state and federal governments have privatised a crap load of services and all they do is continue to hike our bills while providing less and less service. Electricity, water supply, employment services and more are now an absolute joke here.

Meat for the meat grinder.

Sounds like the Taiwanese police were under some pressure to make a big bust so they pulled out a box of cheap cables they acquired from the local markets and made up some public service maths to look good.

This is much more hassle. Apart from having to actually set up and configure such a device, every time you want to use it you’ve got to switch it on, switch your TV input and use a different remote to control it. This is far inferior to just using the TV remote to open Plex and navigate with the same remote. That’s without considering that Plex is more polished and has an overall better UI as well.

These are a lot of the core reasons why Plex is better. Setting up a media server is a lot more complicated than just installing the package in your favourite distro.

Plex is easier to set up and has more features that are more polished than what Jellyfin has. It’s also a more well known name and been available a lot longer and it’s app is available on a lot more devices including TVs themselves.

Jellyfin will one day be the superior option though once it’s more polished and caught up in these areas.

It’s the tobacco industry that screwed themselves over with these. They opened so many stores near high schools you’d swear it was a drug cartel front of it wasn’t for all the kids coming and going from them. Irresponsible greed backfired on the tobacco industry spectacularly here.

In Australia, most of the tobacco store chains were grey market importing vapes from Asia that had nicotine in them even if they were labelled nicotine-free. They also weren’t up to our mandated standards, often containing many nasty chemicals that people shouldn’t vape.

The industry also shot itself in the foot with these vapes by opening countless amounts of stores right up the road from every high school in the country. The one near mine has 8 within quick walking distance. They were selling these dodgy vapes to kids, often still in uniform like candy. It wasn’t unusual to see kids come and go from these shops in their school uniforms all the time. A few kids ended up in hospital because of these vapes too.

Personally, I’m glad to see these go and the health of our people will be a lot better for it. This article is also incorrect about the timing, it was announced some months ago that this ban on vapes was coming.

Wish I had the money to even be able to drive one of these nightmare cars in the first place. Yay for being poor I guess!

Yeah woah, these questions were supposed to narrow it down but instead gave me way to many options most of which weren’t all that suitable at all.

Latest release is a touch old (2022) and it’s not the most active repo ever. Hopefully its not dying.

A lot of younger people don’t know who Hitler was or just assume he’s a funny meme these days. It’s not their fault, this stuff is simply not taught in schools and I fear we’re destined to make the same mistakes all over again.

Joplin explains on their website that it’s for preformance that they use a database rather than flat files.

Lost my virginity thanks to IRC.

Have they gotten rid of snap yet in this release?

They do this with the goal to replace the tracking and ad network with their own. The article points out several instances where they’ve done this.

Just because something is open source doesn’t mean the people behind it have the best intentions in mind.
