Sorry, I meant risk taking not averse (not my 1st language) Regarding the bugs, they get usually fixed within days

*10.9 if not latest. For the risk averse folks out there, check out https://github.com/containrrr/watchtower I just let it run every night, so far w/o problems

I struggled with Kubuntu as newbie (coming from Windows) - Mint was easier for me and I sticked with it (Cinnamon in my case, but my laptop is more powerful)

Most of my PRs are fixing typos in the Readmes 8) It ain’t much, but it’s honest work

Okay, let’s play this game :D Mint, because it’s frickin easy and fulfills all my needs while being stable enough for my work laptop

Who should clean cities and subways from dropped food then? Rats?

I still prefer it, HDDs aren’t free and I personally really can’t tell the difference (my TV kinda sucks anyway)

Your old stuff is most likely in x264 video codec, while, especially at the higher resolutions, x265 / HEVC and in rare cases AV1 are the standard today. But it also depends on the specific release how many streams (like audio tracks, subtitles) are included

For the remote management, either a VPN to your parents network or exposing (e.g. Cloudflare Tunnel)

a typical (full subtitle) .srt file for a movie is like 100-200 kb - still not much, but 5 is a little off

Yes, you are right. It only makes sense if you jave the option to charge at home, at your work or similar. Anyway, I’m happy I don’t have to think about this kind of shit. I get on my bike and just drive, if something is broken, it’s usually a $15 fix I can do by myself in an hour.

I guess you are walking around with your phone until it dies, charge it for 5mins and then repeat? … or do you just plug it in over night or when you are not using it? That’s really not a good point you are bringing up here. You could critisize, that there are only few public charging stations (with user friendly terms) or what the comment you answered to is critisizing or even that there are so few alternatives for (really) climate friendly transport, but your point is just ‘what if I am not able to think at all??’

Thanks for the insights. No holy among the capitalist companies…

if only they’d pay the musicians worth a shit<

afaik that’s mainly the fault of the music labels, they charge quite good money, but they don’t give it to the artists: https://blog.groover.co/en/tips/loud-clear-spotify-2/

I’ve never subscribed to more than two - Netflix and Prime. Whenever exclusive stuff is somewhere else, I get it on Bluray or sth and add it to my Jellyfin. Since the first two get shittier every day, I’m thinking about cancelling them, but haven’t done yet

Not a single sidewalk is built to last the weight of a car. They are build as cheap as possible (sand bed + stones), because they are not supposed to get exposed to heavy loads. That’s why they are often in bad conditions, they usually don’t even have tree root protection, so they get regularly misformed from below and above

I’d recommend finding a tutorial for Docker+Portainer - Portainer is a container as well, which provides a web-gui to conveniently manage all your other containers (without having to touch the CLI ever again)

The Hacs Integration makes use of the device’s API - don’t know if it is their intended use of it, but it works

You can turn off the internet access at almost all Tuya devices by making use of the local tuya HACS add on in home assistant. Maybe that’s helpful for your research
