  • But, that's wrong...1 kilomile is 1000 miles not 1000 meters, that would be 1 kilometer...so one mile is 1600 meters which makes one kilomile about 1'600'000 meters (rounded) so it would be 1'600'000/4.1 = 390'243 vw beetles

  • I try to as well...but it really reduces options. E.g. I do try to source my eBooks and audiobooks without DRM and theres a lot of stuff you can't get that way, so the only way to actually buy them is to "buy" them on a platform (e.g. audible) and use 3rd party tools to remove the drm (which is against their ToC)

    Also a lot of corporate tools are moving to cloud only, windows, office365, atlassian, adobe etc. and unfortunately, it's not easy to get the higher ups to see the issues with that

    And it's not only services. Everything with an internet connection can be altered...e.g. HP updated their printerfirmware to not longer allow non-HP ink cartridges (and no I don't own an HP). Bambu lab closed their api, preventing the users to use 3rd-party tools. Theoretically valve could close down your bootloader and then you're fucked (they probably won't, but still, the point stands)

    And again

    Amazon prevents you to

  • I do where I can, but often it is not possible toa) find something you can actually buy, and call it your own. b) you still don't know if the creator t turns a darth vader on you and tells you "I'm altering the deal, pray I don't alter it further"And the best thing: uf they brick it or move features behind a paywall (with an update after you "bought" it) and you circumvent their "security" to restore the function YOU are the criminal. Nice thing isn't it?

  • Problem is by now, I don't get that thing anymore. i get a freaking licence to use it for some time, and when you decide I don't own that licence anymore you got my money and I have nothing

  • Munin (https://munin-monitoring.org/) It's not very pretty but quite easy to setup and doesn't eat so much resources as a Prometheus/grafana setup

  • Also, it always tries to open the office files within teams instead of the actual office application. The features are worse and everytime you receive a chat and want to check it, teams closes your file....great productivity

  • No hacking is circumventing the security....if you send out the password it is really bad secops. Stop selling negligence of a party as hacking.

  • They have to...otherwise some other shmock can come and patent it...But what you do with the patent is your choice, you can still allow the use of the technology.

  • I'm running endevourOS with KDM and there are some major issues with bluetooth...I can't get some devices to connect (e.g my keychrone Keyboard, and Cricut plotter)

    I still have to disable my wireless mouse, when I hibernate, because I couldn't be bothered to adapt the udev rules to disallow the mouse to trigger the pc to start

    And finaly, I just got back into X4 Foundation and my HOTAS setup depends on which device is recognized first...either its correct, or the controls are swapped (stuff that should be on the joystick is on the thrustmaster and vice versa)...un- and replugging in the correct order fixes this, but one wod think that it would lock the controls to a fixed device identifier

  • Important to know: the local copy is read only...so you can't modify existing or create new entries if you aren't connected to the server

  • What...why...how?

  • These sound a lot like "trust me bro, he's bad" arguments

  • That is the problem they get promoted as the one-size-fits-all solution on everything. And people are using it as it's promoted

  • Also what a lot of people don't see ist, that as a company if you are looking for employees, there are a lot of potential workers with adobe experience, much less with affinity (although growing). Not sure how kany you find with professional FOSS tool experience.

    So you do have major onboarding costs for each new employee who has to relearn their workflows

  • I usually go for if it has a / its probably US date formate...

    We use dots in our Locale

  • Ohh you are in for a treat 🫠

  • Did you get it to run? I tried it for about a day or so, and only got it kind of working

  • I tend to disagree, I do have several devices running Linux and with all of them I had issues after install (standby not working, swap partition not recognized, sound only playing on half of the speakers, issues with monitor scaling etc...) Im fine with it and like the journey, but there are still quirks.

    Probably Im in an in-between-world where I do have some tricky use-cases, but missing the full know-how to do it...

    thing which makes it not normy-usable, are the documentations: for windows issues you can find DAU-conform guides to solve something. Mostly on "official" (with probably too many ads) pages.

    For Linux it's usually a rabbit hole of official documentations (which dont show all the options), forums, reddit pages, where some guy tells another guy to add xyz to the config file....without telling which file and where in the file. Why is this command not listed in the documentation? What does that command actually do?

    It has gotten much better, but there's still some way to go

  • You all get it totally wrong, it's not part of enshittification, they add the landingpage so you can securely check where tue link is going...

    And if there's a landing page, why not use it to show you great deals...would be sad to not use that real estate

    That's \s by the way
