• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plex now will SELL your personal data⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I can tell you right now that something like a username and password is exceptionally difficult for most users. Many just have one password for every single application and if they need to use a different email or password, they will be stuck.

  The vast overwhelming majority of users do not have password managers, do not know they exist, and will give up at the first sign of complexity. You’re too far into the weeds if you don’t conceptualize this.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Plex now will SELL your personal data⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  The overall vast majority of everyone is completely tech illiterate. We can blame them for their lack of tech skills all we want but that won’t change anything. Jellyfin needs a better UX before it’s feasible to use over Plex when sharing libraries with other users.

  You’re right. There’s absolutely no evidence of Trump being not of sound mind.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That's it. That's the joke.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I sat in the room as my wife experienced the most brutal pain she has ever gone through. That woman has such a high pain tolerance that she scares me. And yet I felt sick just hearing her. The fact that they don’t anesthetize for this is criminal and fucking embarrassing as a society.

  Thank you for this. It’s beautiful.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm guilty of not reading the f..ing documentation⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Highly specialized people live in bubbles and assume that everyone else lives in their same bubble and so if someone else doesn’t understand, they aren’t worth communicating with.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm guilty of not reading the f..ing documentation⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  In my experience, all the Linux documentation I have read has been written for peers of Linux developers, who are familiar with technical terminology and several concepts and steps are left out and implied rather than explained.

  It’s a way for developers to ensure that Linux never receives adoption past other developers. Literary equivalent of pulling the ladder up.

  For me it’s because Nextcloud also has a mobile app and it’s easy to transfer files between my iPhone and my server and other computers

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google restores Nextcloud user’s file access on Android⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve been self hosting Nextcloud for over a year now. Fantastic. It’s like OneDrive. Syncs all my files on my computers so I’ve got multiple backups on different machines with one central location (the server running Nextcloud).

  Tons of plugins and documentation, so any errors you may have are easily fixed. Haven’t had it mess up on me once. It just works.

  I don’t want to install nexus mod manager and then play Russian roulette with stability :/ thanks for the link though!

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oblivion Remastered - Bugs, Glitches, and Fixes⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Last night I tried doing the Corruption and Conscience quest in Cheydenhall and got to the very end.

  It told me to wait 2 hours before meeting a dude at a tavern. I waited 2 hours and the dude never showed up. Turns out you’re supposed to wait in front of the tavern and not right next to him. Totally bugged, can’t complete it.

  I looked it up and used a console command which reset his character and allowed me to finish the quest but at the expense of any and all future achievements (since using a single console command removes steam achievements).

  Had to decide if quest completion or achievements were more important to me. Sucks.

  Th game was fantastic. I might redownload it and play it again. Wingsuit, driving, killing religious Americans. What’s not to love?

  Fuck man. I used to use a program called “Kidpix” when I was a kid. It was like ms paint but with fun effects and sounds.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are Dairy Robots the Secret to Happier Cows and More Efficient Farms?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  You’re right. It’s horrible and evil and I should disavow both my wife and her cousin for participating in such a thing and burn the entire thing down and free the cows.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Are Dairy Robots the Secret to Happier Cows and More Efficient Farms?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My wife’s cousins dairy farm has one of these robots. It’s like a big roomba that dispenses hay. The cows love that machine lol. He also has an automated cow hugger and cows like up to get squeezed by this machine. It’s pretty cool.

  There are lots of European smartwatches as well. I too had a garmin but after the united states declared war on canada we have/are purging all US tech/products from our house.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Garmin adds AI and a subscription tier to its app⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s also not trustworthy. Would you want the united states to have access to your heart rate, pulse ox, gps location, and other health stats?

  But I do like using Nextcloud. I use it for syncing my video projects so I can pick up where I left off on another computer.
