There are far too many loopholes for me not to hate companies be they small or large.

In Australia, “family trusts” are a sure way to write off a good chunk of your expenses (groceries, fuel and so on) while paying yourself a wage. If you really want you can cook the books taking cash sales for yourself too.

Don’t forget about “taking” whatever you want from the company, and writing that off as a loss.

Maybe I should hate people, but in a vacuum people are reasonable, logical and honorable. But once we introduce a “well maybe” or an “but what if I were to purchase fast food and disguise it as my own cooking?” my view of people becomes skewed.

I guess, I wanted to vent about how fucked everything seems to be and that I feel powerless to do anything about it. GameStop as a company probably deserve the rocks in boxes, Amazon deserve them too, all because people are running those companies.

I’m not above greed, but I’d like to think / feel that I put out more than I take and it seems quite uncommon in our modern society.

Wait, the princess is Zelda?!

There is an android version: https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/io.freetubeapp.freetube

However I prefer Grayjay: https://grayjay.app/

Ahh yeah the price is a waiting game for me, Apple products hold onto their value and for me having the bleeding edge isn’t what I’m chasing these days.

Guess I’ll wait and see how the Qualcomm products go on the used market for their price.

I got my 4800hs for a steal; maybe I need to aim lower.

Linux on Qualcomm laptops really that bad? I’ve been considering a purchase of a 1st gen once the 2nd gen comes out (probably grab an ex display model on the cheap).

I’ve not been following developments closely enough, but I know the battery life (in windows at least) is tiers better than my current 4800hs / 1650 with 65% battery health.

I’ve too considered a MacBook, but their never within my budget for the spec that I want, guess I was too hopeful about Qualcomm laptops 😞

Intel too are heavily invested in that market. Coming from a 13900kf owner.

Gives me Sonos vibes.

I won a Sonos speaker years ago, thing needed (from memory) an app to switch to AUX mode. The speaker sounded great but I didn’t want to install an app just to use the thing.

In a grand spectacle my ex’s cat kicked a potplant off a windowsill into our fish tank. That shorted a power board, we didn’t have breakers (ceramic / wire fuses) which ended up killing the speaker.

Honestly as nice of a speaker it was, good riddance.

I’ve seen Intel NUCs hanging from the backs of signage displays in Macca’s when I lived in Melbourne. I guess pushing updates to the menus would be easier. My company used Raspberry Pis in our showrooms - admittedly it was implemented horribly. They all used SD cards which ended up failing due to write wear.

Interesting about the new models, would be keen to get my hands on one 😅

Works for my Logi mouse, was very happy when I found the package (thanks nixpkgs search)

Ratbagd / Piper doesn’t work for your mouse?

Was another perk switching to Linux, my keyboard I can bake in profiles (using a windows VM) then dispose of that VM once my keyboard is setup the way I wanted.

SteelSeries software is horrendous, up there with the Razer.

Man the Logi settings app was utter trash, so slow to run or even change settings.

Ratbagd + Piper gave me the ability to change my DPI (no switch on the super light) without any bloat.

Pornhub, or touching grass. Either order really.

I’d been paying for premium YouTube for a few years, the family plan had a massive spike in price and I’d had enough from there. Been using Grayjay for the past few months only watching a couple of channels, but if this goes live it will kill the platform for me.

The bundled YouTube music sub really doesn’t sell it for me either, sure it’s got some more niche music compared to other platforms but it’s not a drop-in replacement (especially for the better half).

All and all I’m probably one of the few that will tap out of the platform, will be interesting to see the fallout.

Interesting video on Chernobyl and the people still living in the exclusion zone.

https://www.bbc.com/travel/article/20140116-cooking-in-the-danger-zone-chernobyl

I can’t watch the video via the BBC site but it exists elsewhere.

Ass to ass!

Pls provide source code.

Not the same form factor and around twice the price, erying es intel motherboards are a steal at their current price. You do need RAM / Storage / ATX PSU they end up a much more performant’ piece of hardware.

The Q1J2 (20 threads) board I have despite it being an ES chip has given me no issues. Running most of my home services on the board with a coral nvme m.2 + nvme + sata storage. Can even do dual ethernet via the a+e m.2 and add-in more sata storage via m.2 to 6x sata board.

I’ve got a pi somewhere in the mounds of boards at home, but would rather spin up another container / pod / nspawn on my erying board vs go through the motions of setting up a pi.

Yeah my golf gets most shit moved, really want a tow ball installed so I don’t need to steal my partner’s car for heavier / larger jobs.

Pavement Princess or emotional support vehicle. Really hate the area I live in currently, my street is cluttered with them.
