Love it. Those hypocritical fucks will rue the day they fuck with Tux.

Do you know what would dry up those tears? A Copilot, to help you navigate your digital needs. Now, click this button, grant us root, and never worry again!

These assholes sound like jihadists. I’ll joke about whatever I damn well please. Jokes are not bullets; moral indignation is just self-serving pageantry. Buncha one-dimensional fuckwads they are.

I’ve used them for a few years now using my domain. It’s no nonsense and well structured. Eventually, I’ll just self-host, but this is a good option if you don’t have a reliable means to host or just want to get your feet wet before fully self-hosting. The $20/yr plan has been perfectly adequate for my needs.
- Comment on Plex got hacked. 2 weeks ago:
Many years ago, I scooped up my lifetime plex sub for I believe $100. But, when plex started pushing their own login portal, I grew wary and bitter. I outright deleted my account shortly thereafter. I more or less respect the hustle but not my cup of tea.

It matters if someone manages to hide an exploit in jellyfin’s codebase, or more likely, a popular plugin. I imagine many folk have permissive outgoing firewall rules, in which case, an exploit could establish connectivity. Whether that eventually leads to privilege escalation on the jellyfin host would depend upon other variables.
- Comment on Android’s most beloved launcher may be done for good 3 weeks ago:
Speaking of calculators on android, I recently found an old silver link cable on ebay, which connects TI calculators to a computer, allowing me to dump the ROM of my old TI89. Loading up that rom in the ‘graph89’ emulator app is an amazing addition to a phone. Blows the socks off any calculator app.
But yes, fossify apps are simple. They do seem to be under active development, so hopefully they shape up nicely in the future.

Heh, praise uBlock. If it didn’t work as well as it did, I’d drop youtube in an instant. Invidious used to be awesome, but it’s so hit-or-miss now that I seldom try it. Youtube isn’t bad without ads, but ads + wading through clickbait bullshit just isn’t worth it.

Nice list. I recently started using Fossify Launcher and have been pretty happy with it. It’s simple but does what I need. Thought I’d mention it as it’s absent from that list.
