Unfortunately if you take alternatives out of the running you’re kind of just left with impotent rage against one of the biggest companies in the world and their shareholders.

Why would Microsoft ever care about some mildly upset users on Lemmy when they know said users are locked into their product for life?

If you think going down on someone is only a submissive act you haven’t gone down on someone long enough, or teased them enough.

GOOD GUYS, BAD GUYS, AND EXPLOSIOOONS, AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN SEE

I distinctly remember learning this about myself after talking to someone on a dating app who used absolutely 0 punctuation. We’re talking like entire paragraphs-worth of text messages without a comma or period in sight.

100%. This is just due to the cost of hitting their servers in case you can’t reach your network

Right, but IIRC anyone can go on the plex.tv website and use shared servers due to the “proxy”

Louis Rossman, a strong advocate for the right to self-repair, has an extensive, bottom to top guide on self hosting your own services. It starts from introducing what a modem is and what role it plays, and it ends with an entirely self hosted cloud. It comes in article as well as 13 hour video form.

You could put a PlayStation disk into a CD player, skip a few tracks, and listen to the songs from the game

Syncthing-fork for Android is the only tricky bit

Use obsidian enough and your brain also just starts to interpret raw markdown lmfao.

I’ve definitely caught myself using md to format pen and paper notes before.

And equally important, how do you do your backups? What system and to where?

Alternatively, he’s the type of old fart that constantly makes calls when they could’ve been emails.

The discrepancy you’re pointing out across different countries is at most 18x, according to your article.

Let’s ignore, for a second, that “richness” needs to be considered in the context of COL. Yes, 1% of someone salary could make an impact in Tajikistan. But the cost of a meal for that potential donor could also bankrupt someone in Tajikistan. But let’s ignore that for now.

18x an average persons salary is a fart in the wind when it comes to the rich. Take a look.
