My thoughts exactly. My Xbox is spying on me instead.

And if it does, they’ll thank him for helping them to disconnect.

Ahh, that’s valid. I’ve been wanting to build a (relatively) small 16TB SSD NAS for video editing, after which I could dump footage to my main NAS. SSD NAS systems can definitely make sense depending on your use case. Hell, you can even game off of them if you’ve got 10gig networking.

Why do you turn off the NAS at night? Reminds me of my grandparents turning off the wifi at night.

There’s also https://www.distrosea.com/ for an ever easier trial.

My speakers at home hum due to my Logitech Powerplay Matt, even with a ground loop isolator. It sucks. I was kinda surprised that it wasn’t an issue with this setup.

I understand what you’re saying. What would make GrayJay open source? Allowing for community contribution?

Edit: I looked it up thanks to your unhelpfullness, and open source seems to mean making the code available for the community to use, modify, and share, which Grayjay seems to do. I’m pretty sure I’m right here, but I do want to hear your definition and argument. Is your issue that the license doesn’t allow others to make money using the source code?

By the acronym, opening up the source code to the public would make it open source. What is Grayjay missing to be open source then? Accepting contributions?

It’s free, and I see an official Github repository containing the code, is that not foss?

Sure, that’s why I paid for Plex Pass. Plex isn’t free.

Legal ownership, that is

You’d be better off directly donating.

Yeah the thought of ceasing updates scares me for that reason. Better to just stay up to date imo.

How would you know that iOS is trash if it’s vaporware?

I’m still at my first job in Software Development.

Most of our engineering is on Linux

God I wish my company allowed that

They should have to justify that

Have you worked somewhere before? Yeah, they should, but they won’t. It’s easier and cheaper to say no to everything unless there’s a serious tangible business reason that you need to use it, at which point they’ll look into it.

My company has rejected a bunch of stuff with the only reason being “Security Risk” with no further reasoning provided when asked. It’s super aggravating.

They can’t really say no to a free app

What? At my workplace there’s a bunch of stuff we aren’t allowed to install that’s free with the reasoning being security concerns.

Wow, a take that isn’t just “AI bad?” Wild.

Yeah I thought it was weird that it couldn’t do this in windows in the first place when you had to click a button to allow the AI to change your computer from light to dark mode or something. It was right 99% of the time in my brief testing, and just include an undo button in case it isn’t.

All of that said, I’m glad to be on Linux where there isn’t any AI built into my OS, but I’m also not the target audience for needing an AI to change my settings for me.

Sure, but that doesn’t mean we should just print garbage because others are doing worse.
