A thing you buy should always include all the things you need to use it. Not just a charger and cable, that includes batteries where relevant.

I’m glad I switched exclusively to Raspberry Pi years ago. I just preferred Pico.

Look at Notesnook. You can even self-host the server, though it’s somewhat more complicated than it needs to be.
- Comment on Crunchyroll Faces Cancelation: Why Anime Fans Are Choosing Piracy After Latest Update 5 days ago:
All the streaming services are unethical now, both in pricing and operation. Netflix is maybe the least bad, but I can’t justify the cost for that, either.
Stremio + Torrentio is the way to go.
What happens next is like what happened in the 2000s. People will turn to piracy as legitimate content is no longer feasible, affordable, or ethical. Then the corporate oligarchs will crack down violently to make examples of the people they’ve given no other choice or recourse.
It’s time to eat the rich.

I was recently turned on to Stremio + Torrentio and it’s very good. I’m considering making a Pi5 device dedicated to it.
- Comment on Are Street Racers "bad people"? 5 days ago:
If they are doing their thing on a closed course, I have no problem. But if it is on public roads, then they are endangering others and that makes you a bad person.

I will never stop using them. Fuck AI. I won’t let it take the joy of nice, legible formatting away from me.
- Comment on ICEBlock Owner After Apple Removes App: ‘We Are Determined to Fight This’ 6 days ago:
If you understand what is going on then you understand that, as of right now, all mobile users are thoroughly fucked. Google is about to gatekeep all Android app development and we don’t have any serious third options. The monopoly noose is tightening around the world’s neck.
Apple, Google, they are both greedy, evil, abusive corporate oligarchs. “Apple bad” helps nobody. Google is just as bad. We need more options. Until Graphene works on non-Google devices, it’s not much of an alternative. Until UBPorts gets more support and adoption, it’s not much of an alternative either. We’re in a very bad place.

Even if 1/3 of their subscribers cancel they still come out ahead because of lower infrastructure costs. i doubt they are going to see a 1/3 reduction in subscribers, so capitalist exploitation and enshittification will win again.

- Comment on Tiny stones rewrite Earth’s evolution story 1 week ago:
- Scientists have uncovered an unexpected witness to Earth’s distant past: tiny iron oxide stones called ooids. These mineral snowballs lock away traces of ancient carbon, revealing that oceans between 1,000 and 541 million years ago held far less organic carbon than previously thought. This discovery challenges long-standing theories linking carbon levels, oxygen surges, and the emergence of complex life.
- Comment on Relooted - Game made by South Africans has been bombarded by right-wingers 1 week ago:
I stopped using them a long time ago. Since they don’t seem interested in moderating their own forums in the slightest, Valve should really shut them all down. The Steam forums are such cesspits of hate speech, bigotry, and toxicity that I actually feel dirty every time I buy a game on Steam. That is not okay.

I’m a leftist and I have nothing against managers. I have been one. There are lots of people who have no business being in any position of authority or responsibility, and those are the people we all have problems with, not the job or title.
Yes, apologize. Extend an olive branch. If she’s one of the genuinely great people who have found their way to management, then show her some courtesy and it will pay dividends for both of you. Generally speaking, being courteous, empathetic, and constructive is always the best first approach.

Swift is open source (Apache 2) and is a very pleasant language to work with. I would have gone with Rust, personally, but I can’t fault anyone for choosing Swift. It’s a very underrated language.
- Comment on New Arizona law to restrict online porn access; Pornhub will block state 2 weeks ago:
Which is ridiculous if you think about it. The whole point of a website is that the visitor goes to them. Unless their servers are located in a place that place should have no jurisdiction or authority over them whatsoever.

And will corporations learn that Republicans are as bad for business as they are for civil rights, human rights, natural rights, and any other kind of right?
No. They will not. Because a handful of multibillionaires own and control all the corporations.
- Comment on Microsoft starts rolling out Gaming Copilot on Windows 11 PCs 2 weeks ago:
That one universal linux is Fedora, or OpenSuse, or Debian, or Pop_OS. Take your pick.
I recommend Bazzite to gamers. If you primarily play games, there is no reason to look at anything else.
If you want more control and like to experiment, try one of the above distros I mentioned. I like Fedora and constantly come back to it, but any Linux with KDE Plasma is going to be fine for most people. I am very excited for the upcoming version of Pop_OS with the Cosmic desktop beta. There is a strong chance that becomes my go-to once that releases, since it has the good parts of Ubuntu and none of the bad ones.
Ubuntu/Kubuntu/Xubuntu are the only ones I tell people to avoid. Also, avoid Arch until you get really into Linux and crave complete control.

I’ve noticed a significant uptick in rightist trolls on the fediverse since the devil called Charlie Kirk home. Absolutely nowhere is safe from fascist infiltration for long. Hopefully the half decent instances defederate from those cesspits en masse.
