I think a lot of people have facebook accounts but dont use it for facebook. Messenger, instagram, marketplace.. I'd guess that most people using those services don't actually "use facebook" and probably think they arent providing profitable data to meta by using those services.

We know spez' secrets too.

Dude loved the jailbait subreddit before it was banned for obvious reasons.

He was a moderator.

Ah, yes, the guy that obviously put a lot of money into intel shares or attempting to short AMD right around the launch of Zen architecture and got so butthurt about his poor investment that he started actively falsifying data and writing ridiculous unhinged reviews of amd products to make intel look better.

Then they should be fined for wasting the courts time, and spreading misinformation.

I wish TCL would stop referring to it as electronic paper, it's a matte LCD with some desaturated modes for eye comfort.

for me, the major selling point of a true e-paper display is sunlight readability, if your "electronic paper" LCD cant match e-ink, then it's not good enough.

The main E-ink patents are due to expire in 2026, so we should see some rapid development after that.

It is SIGNIFICANTLY easier to just download properly done rips than to try to either capture or dump the Netflix streams yourself.

I just have a "channel" on my plex (I use DizqueTV to setup the fake TV channel) that has a random continuous playlist of Mythbusters, Top gear + all the spinoffs and classic specials, Junkyard wars, classic robot wars, etc etc..

Totally different software solutions aimed at different users, and many people use both.

Plex is a Server software that handles media management, libraries, users, etc etc.. and a range of player apps that have a somewhat beginner friendly layout requiring little to no setup

Personally, I run a large Plex server that provides content for my family across dozens of mixed devices in home and out of home, different users have access to different libraries and have different preferences. If needed it will automatically transcode content for remote users out of the home to fit my upload bandwidth and their available speed if they are on mobile. it keeps track of watched content and position for all users so they can move between devices seamlessly.

Kodi is an extensible media player frontend, it can play files from a remote server or NAS but there is no server management, it is just doing basic file access. there are addons for many common services and media sources but there is no user management, no transcoding, no sharing content with other clients etc etc. Having multiple kodi installs on multiple players requires each client to be configured more or less from scratch and no easy way to have multiple setups for different users with their own preferences, libraries and/or content restrictions. It is extremely powerful and configurable and has strong format support.

I have Kodi installed on one of my Nvidia Shield Pros but only use it for playback of surround music files (support for 5.1 flac on plex seems to be limited to audio within video containers for some reason) I find the interface (and all the skins I tried) extremely clunky for use as a music player, the way the remote works within the player itself is unintuitive and makes for an annoying experience restarting the track when you just want to move the playback a few seconds, a bit unfair of course as that isn't what it was made for but that's just my experience.

Hate repost bots, if you want to use one as a back-er-up-er-er it should post to a dedicated community intended to be an archive, not the main communities for a topic, they are practically spam and don't promote any conversation in the comments as people avoid commenting on something that has zero connection to the original poster of the question.

Linus should have employed a professional CEO, Managers, PR and HR years ago, right at the start of the labs expansion.

Their problems in the last couple of years could have been avoided or greatly reduced with better management, and employees not afraid to be open when things go wrong, this will set them back years.

It may only be two atoms, but it's yet another tiny step in the right direction. It may still be generations before fusion is a scalable and reliable power source, but at this point I think we've proved it isn't impossible.

also there are bot tools that can effectively print images straight to the canvas with thousands of bot accounts, and have them automatically maintained and repaired.

Theres no fun in it with shit like that going on.
