Holy shit, someone actually buys them!

Fuck that cancer site giving you the option to either give them all data or go one by one over 200 “partners” and disable them.

Ah, the joys of using Black Mirror as a tutorial instead of a cautionary tale.

Granted, that episode had a pretty tame ending compared to most.

Not a problem for me, I pay for VPN anyway.

They die anyway, they’re surviving on momentum, not on being the genuinely great service that’s actually better than pirating.

I must get into this Usenet thing one day. Though it all seems complicated.

If I haven’t cancelled Netflix already, I would right now. I cancelled Spotify for the same reason just last week (though in their case it might have been a mistake, but I don’t really expect such mistakes after increasing the cost twice a year).

Given that’s like half the reason people actually buy PCs in the first place? Probably not.

Sounds weird. I started pirating again because the companies are fucking greedy. So nothing they do will make me pay again, until they stop being so greedy - if they all consolidate into one streaming service for a price of like $10, I’ll probably stop pirating again, because at that point it’s easier to not pirate.

How about no? If you want a web app, at least go to the trouble of writing a proper offline PWA. It behaves like an app and doesn’t force you to have a second, insecure copy of a browser.

Gtk?

I hear Somalia also isn’t the best place to sail by.

I mean, Syncthing is much more than that. The great thing about it is that it works no matter where you are - home wifi, over the internet etc.

But that means that someone else’s server is used whenever you leave your home network.

Most of the phones suck. Jolla 1 was great back in the day. From the “current gen” of phones, Xperia 10 III got great eventually (using an unofficial trick), no other recent official phone is daily drivable.

If it wasn’t for their last Jolla branded phone being a fucking disaster, I’d be buying this in a heartbeat.

But I’ll probably wait for the first reviews instead. Also how they didn’t ever deliver a portion of the tablets nor did they refund them doesn’t really leave me trusting in preorders.

The OS is great, though. If you can get a Xperia 10 III in a good condition, go for it!

Oh yeah, I feel sorry for all the Immich users who know it just won’t happen to them. Losing your movie collection sucks but you can download again, but personal photos deserve much better treatment. Though it sucks paying extra for cloud backup of your photos.

Codex is not bad. I use it for personal projects and Claude at work, so I can directly compare and Codex seems better to me.

Today I removed some functions and moved some code to separate services and being the lazy guy I am, I told it to update the tests so they no longer fail. The idiot pretty much undid my changes and updated the code to something very much resembling the original version which I was refactoring. And the fucker did it twice, even with explicit instructions to not do it.

I mean, forever might be too strong of a word.

I personally buy from GOG almost exclusively, but it really depends on you. If Steam features are important to you, use Steam. If what GOG’s doing with DRM is important to you, buy from GOG.

Can’t you continue buying games from both? And use Playnite or something? Or even just GOG Galaxy which has the ability to import your games from Steam and run them?
