I’m sure it’s not a service problem.

People have no problem in paying €500/year to watch 1 match / week only from a single device in a single household

i “fixed” the problem of those fucking bots by blocking everyone except my country

LOL if 4gb of memory is pretty minimal I am curious to know that they think to be resource intensive.

The maximum memory I am willing to allocate to a lxc container dedicated to bookmark management (=something that I access twice a month) is 256mb

This is an ad, so the computer pictured is not fictional, but it’s the HP Mediasmart ex470 (I think this joke book was even bundled with the first units)

They used really shitty processors so it’s ewaste, maybe it can be acquired for cheap and repurposed with some mini itx board

I think it depends by the manufacturer and how they programmed the charger, I got two HP ProBook that almost exclusively got used when plugged in and after a decade they can still last over two hours, instead my Thinkpad t42 with the same usage pattern now just barely holds enough for shutting down the system

About the second question, yes, now for “safety”, only bambu slicer can directly send prints to the a1 mini, it got the enshittification update too.

if you need to buy it, for that budget i’d choose something like an used Lenovo m910q tiny that banks and offices are throwing to the landfill because Microsoft said that everyone needs to buy a new PC. Half the price, similar power consumption (in idle, otherwise much more), much more powerful, comes with nvme and sata slots, hdmi and usb 3

This is the one with mercury switches, right? Perfect for a kid’s game in the living room

1993 and they didn’t update the song for Czechoslovakia?

Italian here: one Saturday I start to get lots of downtime notifications

I don’t understand what’s happening, because they come and go, I get hundreds of them

I connect to the server, waste four hours, everything looks ok but pages don’t load? Weird?

I go to sleep without solving the problem

The morning everything looks fine, so I can go to my self hosted news reader and I discover in my feeds that the FUCKING soccer league blocked cloudflare “accidentally”

The best part of our system is that if the block isn’t disputed within a week, then the IP address is permanently banned. Can it be more stupid than that? Do they really think that pirates won’t change their ip address?

We gave the keys of our internet to two litigious copyright trolls

And this exclusively harms honest people because pirates just use a VPN. I saw pirate websites that when accessed from an Italian IP address have some legitimate content, need to access from a VPN. So the block is completely useless

you can install dockge in truenas and then all your docker data is not “locked” inside their application data

my HBA takes 20W at idle

The way he wrote shows he’s more concerned taking down “pirate” versions of compiled files rather than the trouble of supporting windows users

I’ve worked many hours attempting to get these sites to remove the content, and I’ve managed to remove most of them

easy and effective way to dismiss without argument bugfix requests on operating systems the developer doesn’t care to touch

if you ask $60/year to each user to support an operating system, then it’s better to have first-class support with maximum issue priority

This is the most expensive music player app ever commercialized

I tried once to compile sm64 on windows and I took over 1 hour and dozens of gigabyte to download and install all the prerequisites, plus visual studio clutters the start menu with lots of “useless” shit, normal people gonna get pissed

Winget just downloads an installer from the source.

Microsoft doesn’t provide build time or hosting space (except if you’re using GitHub)

Repo only contains URL to download and hash for check

On Windows? Where you need to install visual studio and 10 gb of libraries?

Access to macOS and Windows releases are currently restricted to sponsors, a 5 USD monthly sponsorship is required.

What the fuck?

Fuck that, isn’t this just a maintained fork of clementine??

And I tried this player, it’s nothing special

I could understand a permanent nag button like nanazip, but $60/year where most of the hard job (libraries, decoders, base ui) was done by someone else for free?

I’m blacklisting this shit even if I’m a Linux user

The installer applies the patches automatically and I personally didn’t have issues in installing multiple times, plus in this way you can easily uninstall a single app or upgrade a single one

Yes, get them separately
