  • Love this. I don't want to read books. I want to have read books. I heard that if you read a certain amount of books that when you die you get an achievement.

    Been saying for years I wish I could spend less time lost in a good book and more time making my boss rich.

  • "No babe it's not rage bait because he cites his sources, I swear babe I won't yell at my screen all night again"

  • True. Doctorow is not exactly one to restrain himself in lieu of a stinging hyperbole.

  • I understand. Graphene seems like the best place to invest. It's a shame they are available on so few devices.

  • Which alternative ROMs will work with F-Droid after the changes to Android go through?

  • Data centers and power generation are IRL investments that are needed whether it’s for AI use or not.

    Well said, and I think a good comparison (and something Doctorow has brought up before) is that the dot-com bubble built a ton of infrastructure and fiber networks that were later able to be utilized. He sort of touched on this when he said "Plan for a future where you can buy GPUs for ten cents on the dollar".

    That all said, as Ed Zitron is oft to highlight, something like 30% of the value of the SNP 500 is in "AI" right now. Even a relatively small pop could lead to more widespread repercussions.

  • "Chaufferdriven" sounds like a city in Germany

  • I fully agree with this comment. Aurora (or Fedora Kinoite, very similar) is the first Linux I have been able to use full time. It should feel familiar and like a breath of fresh air to a longtime windows user. Immutability allows me to tinker without feeling overwhelmed.

    Haven't tried Bazzite but my understanding is that it works just fine as a deskop OS too!

  • But there are dozens of people in this very thread who if I am understanding correctly are willing to offer the same service for free to prove their point that Plex is evil.

  • ok

  • If these catch on (unlikely imo) it's only a matter of time before I have an awkward interaction with someone when they come into my house wearing them...

  • Sorry to have annoyed you.

  • idk I find $2/month to be very reasonable. I don't feel squeezed.

    EDIT: Just to be clear there is no amount of condescending replies form trilby wearing neckbeard keyboard warriors that will change my opinion.

  • Wow, 7tb for $21/month. That's much better than I've been seeing.

  • Problem with that is there is no backup in case of flood/fire/tornado etc.

  • Yeah it sucks because Microsoft charges $10/mo for 6tb.

  • Anyone know of a good managed hosting (or vps) for Immich that doesn't break the bank? I have about 5TB of photos/videos and I don't feel safe without a remote backup. I played with self hosting and I really (really) like Immich but I keep Google photos/Drive just to ensure I won't lose anything.
