I should have phrased it, helps pay the bills. For the end user if you don’t want to pay a monetary fee, then ads are the option. I would never go to some pages if I had to have a subscription to view content, and i assume many others wouldn’t either. Ads, as gross as they are, keep the Internet running for now

Not only that, but advertising pays the bills for the majority of websites. It’s a necessary evil unless people want to pay every website host to see their content.

I think yours is the first comment I’ve read that has Proton hesitancy. I’m curious what your reservations are.

Not to this extent.

If you can’t miss hours in the 24 hours social media cycle, you should probably cut back your exposure my dude.

Fuck your advertisment.

Honestly the Bluetooth app is dog shit. Haven’t used it in years because it’s far easier to just roll the dial. ANOVA should be paying me for distress.

My GoPro can record 4k@30fps. A 20-25min video is 5+gb. The newer GoPros will do 8k@60fps i believe, maybe only 30fps. That will take up a lot more space.

The cards have to be the higher speed cards to be able to record those resolutions, but if I were a person that recorded a lot of stuff, having a card that large would be nice for a day long session.

Prime, Netflix, Hulu, any news website, pornhub, etc…

I have two Wireless Pro Gs, one for work and one for home. I used a g502 for many years and the battery started being shitty with it. I replaced it, but it kept telling me to change it anyway. I then got a g502s that failed within 2 years with double clicking. Then a g902 I think, which started double clicking just after a year. Then I got my first Pro G. I enjoyed it enough to fork out for a second one for work. A couple of months ago, my at home Pro G started double clicking, this is maybe 2-3 years in now. Blowing it out helped a little, but not much. One time I accidentally opened a whole bunch of emails I was going to delete, and slammed it on my desk, and it’s been fine since.

My next mouse will probably be a different brand, even just to play the field a bit.

They already can’t make a fucking mouse that won’t suffer from double clicks within a few years. They have a model, albeit a shitty one, that has people repeatedly buying their products. I will never buy another Logitech product if they even make a “luxury” mouse for the wealthy that has subs, even if they keep a free option. It’s not for me, but the existence of such product is a deal breaker in itself.

Who?

… And who?

I grew up in rural Iowa. We didn’t have a fancy side of town.

Neither tall basketball players or high jumpers actively have someone actively trying to stab them in their larger mass sections. It would be better to compare with baseball where the strike zone can change depending on height. There are some good pictures of Jose Altuve standing next to Aaron judge in the MLB. Basically, tall people have a larger attack vector, and that doesn’t apply in the two sports you mentioned, where more height definitely carries significantly more advantages than disadvantages.

Same. Probably about a month ago there was an Nvidia driver and I think Wayland update that took it from unusable on Wayland to quite stable.

I use chromium for one thing, and it’s casting live sports to my Chromecast. My plans to implement a HTPC have just been expedited.

That’s fair. I don’t know if I will ever pay my own money for it, but if my company will, I’ll use it where it fits.

I just recently got copilot in vscode through work. I typed a comment that said, “create a new model in sqlalchemy named assets with the columns, a, b, c, d”. It couldn’t know the proper data types to use, but it output everything perfectly, including using my custom defined annotations, only it was the same annotation for every column that I then had to update. As a test, that was great, but copilot also picked up a SQL query I had written in a comment to reference as I was making my models, and it also generated that entire model for me as well.

It didn’t do anything that I didn’t know how to do, but it saved on some typing effort. I use it mostly for its auto complete functionality and letting it suggest comments for me.

So two of the most popular if not the top two most used Linux distros, are bad and not fine? Odd that such a large amount of users would continue to use something so unstable. Maybe it wasn’t the distro’s fault?

Being the only person on one side of a conversation doesn’t necessarily mean you’re in an echo chamber. It could also just mean that you’re wrong.
