You’re right that they don’t need to, but in reality they do whether they announce it or not.

In 2017 I tested this at home alone in my apartment in by myself using my smarphone by finding a site with lots of banner ads, monologing next to my phone about a topic with no relation to my current life at the time for about a minute, then refreshing the page. To my horror, the exact thing I was monologing about showed up on every single banner ad. Nothing in my life was going on related to that topic and the only thing connecting me and the topic was my own vocal words.

That was the moment I decided to avoid Google/big tech for the rest of my life.

In 2021, I bought 4 4TB bad HDDs for $65 each. I decoded to buy a spare a couple weeks ago in case this shit decides not to stop and an hdd fails since most of my shit is on my NAS. It was $170 for the exact same model.

Time to throw out the roku I never use.

Grayjay too.

True, but I would think developers should at least be following it with the code they’re actually working on.

If companies can vote, they should be subject to the death penalty like everyone else.

OpenOffice was maintained by sun Microsystems and they were bought by oricale. At the time it was seen so negatively that a fork called libreoffice was created and almost immediately became the default office suite for most people who were using OpenOffice.

Exactly, IMO Vaultwarden should just fork the clients and extensions and officially take the lead. Bitwarden can just go the way of OpenOffice for all I care.

Best use for AI I’ve seen yet!

Trump+Republicans

How is cookie dough the sushi of deserts? Does the meme author mean sashimi?

I would actually be for keyboards having a dedicated AI key, because then I would always have a key to remap to my voice PTT without loosing anything useful.

Because the plan was to distract from the files.

Grayjay has been working well for me lately. I expect I’ll just see more “waiting for media to become availible” screens soon.

I’ve been using grayjay lately and when it needs to play an unskipable add you just get a nice looking blank screen to look at instead.

I discovered this recently, looks like a fairly promising beginning: https://reticulum.network/

Great, more storage technology i’ll never be able to afford

I wish I could buy an EV and opt out, but I can’t afford goddamn anything rn. Fuck trump and fuck this economy and fuck capitalism.

I use both. Pangolin for anything that absolutely requires an external connection, netbird for internal.

If you can, you should add verb form/conjugation practice and/or something to help learn the functions of all the particles. I’m too committed to using anki for my vocab to switch to another tool at this point but I would love to find FOSS software that helps me with my grammer.
