99% of captive portals are either just a dummy page, require a single button press or a checkmark to be set. At least here in Germany. The only times I had to enter any data were in Switzerland.
Everyone except you thinks he’s stupid for what he’s trying to be.

In fact, it can’t even tow, because the hitch can just rip off. It’s a useless pile of scrap metal.

I love good stories. RDR2 was a good story, and RDR1 is technically the sequel to it. And as I don’t like consoles, especially not buying them for one game, I’ll definitely buy it - if it runs on Linux.
Shit cashgrab by shit organization is shit. Color me surprised.
more and more apps (primarily Google services, Social Media, …) get shitty updates
Don’t use them and switch to alternatives then!
I always found it weird for people to recommend BitWarden … it just FELT like a company that’ll go completely off track sooner or later. And it did. Oh wonder. KeePass ftw!
Honestly, paywalls. I’ll just not use anything not FOSS then. Ads are much more annoying and 99% of times brainrot.
I can block ads 100% reliably, and haven’t seen one, except in streams where the streamer had to watch one, or someone else’s device, in years. Paywalls are much harder to circumvent and need a whole plethora of extensions and 3rd party sites, instead of just uBlock + FF.
Any devices, that do not work on any of my machines:
Any devices, that did not work out of the box on any of my machines and needed a seperate package (I use a distro without any preinstalled drivers): Fingerprint sensor, NVidia GPU (only for gaming, it does work just not very performant)
Any devices, that did work out of the box: Every mouse (including the PowerPlay mousepad), every keyboard, headphones, cameras, printers/scanners, touchpads, game controllers
Bonus: Android to Linux OTG networking in both directions
Any devices that do not work with Windows: Scanner, Touchpad (in the installer), Bonus: Intel Rapid Storage Technology
Windows users trying to make their adware delivery platform strapped to a program loader usable (I can install my operating system faster then they can install a program)
Maybe not the best, but good and compliant to the desktop variant: K-9 Mail, now rebranded to Thunderbird Android
That’s bad luck then, friends and I had the opposite experience, with OrganicMaps routing around a road closure where google maps didn’t acknowledge it.
The only thing where google maps is superior is the reviews. In all other points OSM is more detailed and often more up to date. Especially due to nerds like us, that while waiting for the radicalistic-left club to open, explore a mislabeled playground, fix that, and continue to complete streets for OSM with one dude’s phone that can measure distances.
However, google maps does have a lot of data too. Except the app, as all google apps, has literally no useful settings and is awful to use in many aspects.
And for FOSS apps that give traffic data: There are none that I’m aware of. There are, however, alternative, crowd sourced apps/websites for germany, like Blitzer.de, that not only show speed cams but also traffic data. Not ideal, but better.
Google Apps are ALWAYS much worse than FOSS alternatives.
It definitely was a good move, but we’ll see if it was the best move.
Waiting a few months could be pretty good in order to calibrate my income vs my spending and how much I can save too, so I’ll probably do that. I’ll fix the worst wounds (nvidia drivers) with a 7600 soon temporarily anyway.
Do you think they will launch new GPUs at CES or just announce them?
Maybe most smaller ones have hosted both things separately, e.g… with a dedicated minecraft server hoster and a common website-building+hosting service, and don’t want to run an extra server for a proxy just for this.
With bigger servers (eg. Hypixel, 2b2t) or selfhosted servers (eg. mine), everything is on the same physical (or virtual) machine anyway and therefore everything has the same address, so you wouldn’t even need a proxy.
