And well never happen. If Linux dies overtake Microsoft on desktop it is not because of user control but the fact Valve has made game playing possible and better on Linux. People well not switch till they have a reason.

Whose paying for it? Most Foss devs are paid now by companies.

How is that a thing for animated movies.

Same probably more then a decade. I geo block so like 99% of the traffic never FETs past my firewall. Then I go though a ton of lists and crowdsec IPS and only keep the ones for my country and then block those. I know its not perfect and if someone wants to hack me they well but that is true of anybody.

I find systemd easier I don’t have to google the timer syntax all the time.

Grass is always greener. Have a framework and want to get an M1 or 2. Nothing wrong with framework just want to try arm.

I don’t care if someone finds my instance and manages to guess a random number to stream some random movie. Good for them I guess it would be easier to just download it themselves.

They didn’t start the project from Kodi. It is a fork of Emby.

It kind of does. Whatever and yes I’m aware of the list people keep posting and I’ve looked at it.

Yahnlets see a roku use a VPN.

Caddy when I was trying to learn setting up encrypted hello.

Oh I hate how everything is a video. Sometimes I just want text so I can ship to relevant section.

I find AI way more up to date then searching.

Well have to go back to the 70s. I mean it is why there is the CAN bus in cars.

Typical it doesn’t effect me so why are they doing it. You said your selff 57% is a huge number. And they hopefully can reduce that. People on here secerly underestimate the average person let alone the half of the people who are below average.

I know my factory lights piss people off but my god they are good to drive with. In part it is wholly funded by big tech and FOSS in general would not be where it is without this funding. Do you think the software would be this far along without people being paid to don’t? Having ideals is non thing having to eat is another.

Then why are other countries doing this? It isn’t just America and it didn’t start with America.

We are well past the thin wedge. The thin wedge was American companies purchasing every tech company or stealing their ideas.

Then its already to late. We are well past the point of fighting for freedom and privacy on the net. Hell we let the net be bought up and controlled by 5 companies. And people happily use them and complain about big tech on reddit. Lime WTF.

Half a world away where do you live since this is happening everywhere. To be half a world away from any place doing this would be hard.
