Yes, that is the plan. My private IT has been Microsoft-free for a while. There is an old PC with Windows standing around, but everything else runs on linux. Works great :)
(work is, of course, something else as I don’t have anything to decide about the software there)
Yeah, Microsoft fucking sucks. German has ~95 million speakers and is one of the most spoken languages of the world. And Microsoft, one of the most profitable companies in the world can’t be bothered to even do some minor translation work. I don’t even expect them to translate every help document on their page, but menu items in the main ribbon? And Edge is showing totally garbled weather infos on every new page. To millions of people. Because they don’t want to hire one or two guys to proofread their texts.
A decentralized service like Mastodon will have the same issues when governments are knocking on the door. The turkish government totally can force all those small turkish instance admins to defederate instances who are not reacting to legal threats. And all those small admins don’t have the resources to fight a lengthy legal battle against their own government
You can do a lot against tax evasions - if you want. Yes, they will find loopholes. But you can close them. Quickly - if you want. They have literal armies of lawyers? Well, hire armies of clerks, they will pay for themselves and make laws without loopholes.
If the american supply ceases, european producers won’t be able to handle demand. Expect higher prices - good whiskey takes several years to produce and nobody has prepared for a stupid situation like this
Yeah, but other people have other use cases and Wordpress is a good option for them
Yeah - the article is really interesting
Back pain is not painful anymore, but rather pleasant now
It totally makes sense - the dirt has to go somewhere and a cheap bag which you can take out and throw away sounds better than a tiny compartement that you have to shake out spreading the dirt everywhere
Even better:
Even better, if you’re doing the wash and left your phone in the other room, Samsung’s added touchscreens to its washers and dryers, including the new Bespoke AI Laundry Vented Combo washer / dryer ($3,099). This lets you answer a call directly on the built-in 7-inch LCD screen.
You can take calls with your clothes dryer!
Ubuntu & Linux Mint have a Live-USB-Setup. So you can install it on a USB stick, boot from that and then linux is running on your computer. Use it to check if your hardware works and check out the system. If you like it, you can install it from there afterward
Yeah, but on the other hand it is really annoying for us linux folks. Those games can run on linux as most games do with Proton. Some gaming companies are actively fighting against linux users and are even banning them. And then in every discussion about linux someone is showing up and shouting “I can’t use linux, my games don’t work, linux sucks”.
If you’re not selling access, why should you care? You are providing a service to your users and if they want to stream from you, they will figure out how to do this
It was difficult to setup
I’m not really sure here - I just did the setup and you literally paste one command into your terminal. There you’ll find the Jellyfin IP and port, visit it in a browser and you’ll get a simple wizard which guides you into setting up your libraries. Which also is not complicated, you just select a folder where your stuff is?
I have been using this font on my eBook Reader for years. It’s great. Highly recommended - it might look a little bit goofy at the first glance, but it really is more readable.
There is an international court that is responsible for prosecuting individuals for crimes like genocide oder crimes agains humanity. It’s sensible to collect all evidence and put Zuckerberg & Co on trial to see how deep their involvement goes
English is not the author’s native language. So maybe give him some slack?
Let’s be honest: We knew that Elon was an asshole and totally batshit insane after the thailand caving incident. That was in 2018. Everybody who bought a Tesla after that didn’t pay attention
There is an oversupply and China is reducing imports to protect their own industry:
It’s also a great way to mess with Trump (and other conservative governments worldwide) as farmers are some of their most loyal supporters. And since the Trump gov won’t do much against H5N1, it’s also a great way to protect yourself.
Let’s be honest: I, as a customer, want to make informed buying decisions. I want to buy food that is tasty and maybe is healthy, but not based on some image that some marketing guys want to push. I want to choose the car which is best (and cheapest) for my purposes, and don’t want to be hearded into buying something else. I want to choose the best insurance for me and not be mislead by some emotional ad showing me a happy family.
And I really do not want to be manipulated in an emotional vulnerable moment so that I buy something. That’s shady as fuck
