Crystal Skull springs to mind as a close second

Maybe they think they have the one up on Apple this year and want to lead rather than follow… I hope it is something exciting, even though I am an iPhone user. Any innovation is great though I am guessing it will be AI related

I just added the curses to the normal text replacement settings in IOS and I have never had a ducking problem

I think I got online around 1995 when I went to an internet cafe and paid my $4 an hour to see what the fuss was about. I think I bought a modem on the way home and I was hooked. Back then there wasn’t really even a search engine, you went to a portal page… then came basic search like altavista, excite then google.

There were tonnes of communities and web chats if IRC wasn’t your thing, then there was the wave of dedicated chat apps like ICQ, MSN Messenger etc

I have many fond memories of the internet before it became a vehicle for commerce

I eventually got the GPU passed through to the VM… it took about a day of following different guides. Then I tried the same thing on a container and it was about 3 mins work and it was in infinitely better experience with plex in a container instead of a vm

I have seen a few… I started work at a young age as an apprenticeship painter for the railways, and when I was 16 I witnessed my first fatality and had to get down onto the track and cover the remainder of her body with a sheet, I saw another lady OD in a waiting door and have her boyfriend put her on the train and jump back off again, but I witnessed the OD… plus a couple of relatives

Love can hurt too… I am going through a rough patch at the moment and I sometimes wish I never knew love because the pain of losing it is the worst pain in the world… I don’t think that helps you much, but it is another side

I know quite a few people in this situation, but mainly the demographic where I live… but most people still living at home just don’t want to work, and living at home is their gateway to this lifestyle… up all night gaming or watching movies, aspiring streamers…

I think most of them will grow out of it as money is a great motivator to getting out there, but there parents also seem to feel powerless to get them moving, or actually prefer them living there

I am guessing Windows 12 is so shit we are gonna need co-pilot to find and open notepad

• Windows 10: 2 clicks
• Windows 12: click start, only last 2 apps appear plus candy crush… click co-pilot button, type ‘run notepad’… wait for co-pilot to ask if I want to open notepad, click yes…

So it would take near 6hrs to fill it at max write speed

Flatnotes for me. I haven’t tried many others, but it was perfect for what I needed. Markdown, writes plain text files so no database/easy to backup

There are many, but one of the reasons is to buy a house in the catchment area of a good school. They child can attend and pretend they are living in the house but still live in the city

This is a lot like the Reddit issues. You would think that most people would take umbrage to being treated like this by a company, but alas, most people don’t care, aren’t technical enough, or have become too invested in a company to want/need to change.

Companies like Google know this, and it makes me wonder if the ‘don’t be evil’ thing was ever real, or it was simply a bait & switch catchphrase to get them to the point where they were big enough to no longer care what people thought.

Story about how a rich person with a high paying job retired in her 40s… lol

I run a couple of instances of Plex in Proxmox containers. I use containers so I can share the GPU/Network across more than one CT. I think if you use a VM it can only pass through the GPU to one

This happens to me when there is an app keeping a file opened on NFS storage mapping

Cheap second NAS that I power up every now and again, then I run a dsynchronize profile which replicates the important stuff (video), and all the stuff I could never replace I put on a usb and keep it elsewhere

Plex pass… I bought the lifetime one, but it is worth it to me. Plex + NAS + AppleTv and you should need a video subscription service again. Offline downloads onto devices while travelling is just another benefit

It is dying here because they are $50 a pack…

No the docks don’t have any video processing capability, they either convert the usb-c to video, or they have a driver like DisplayLink. In the case of Dell, the usb-c docks are limited to one 2k or greater monitor at a time, so you can have a 2k and 1080p, but not 2 x 2k or a 2k and a 4K… the Thunderbolt version of the same dock has no such limitation
