Somebody up at Sony had a Jira ticket to update all the eulas and it listed the URLs for each one, instead of going to the URLs and putting the content in each one of the eulas they just slaped the URLs in.

Edit: clarity

Not normal. Check Firefox plugins. Maybe disable that safe browsing check option I doubt that’s it but it can’t hurt.

I kind of like that aspect of it… Is that wrong?

An u until live CD will find my decade old HP laser and print to it without any work.

Getting my NIXOS to print at the same printer? About an hour.

Android 17, 🍆

I think I’m going to wait until immich thinks so as well

Canonical historically makes bad decisions. Ubuntu any most points in time is simply great. Their LTS is fab. But they’re hungry. And they screw with us over time. the latest Debian just erased most of the reason to go with Ubuntu adding nonfree, and they haven’t screwed us over.

Wayland is ready, ‘nobody’ else is ready to use Wayland. And by nobody, I mean any software packages that are doing anything at all out of the ordinary. Text expanders are a hot mess, remote control apps or dodgy, OBS screen capture is dodgy. We’re still playing catch up, support for Wayland in applications is honestly quite lacking.

Yeah, the major manufacturers iradiate flour these days. It improves there shelf life and allows them to leave it in backstock a lot longer.

Got a fun one today!

Wife gets a piece of snail mail from the school. Little post card saying you should try pickupusafitness, it’s a service on the other side of the city that organizes pickup games for elementary-aged kids. Place is 20 miles away through Baltimore suburbs.

She talked to me about it, mentiones the name, picks up her phone, goes to search them out, types “pick” and they autocomplete in her search. She’s never searched for it before.

My phone and PC autocomplete pickles pub, pickleball, pick 3 md, pickup lines, pickled cucumber…

So I have never experienced it at all. But my wife, at least once a week will mention something random and get an ad for it. If it were just purely confirmation bias I should be seeing the same biases.

The last one last week she mentioned checking out a certain store 10 minutes later she got around to searching for it. Google auto completed “where can I” with find (whatever store she was looking for) It was the first time she had typed it in and it was dead on what we had been talking about.

It’s definitely not everyone and everything every time but it happens in awful lot for coincidence.

One possible cause of the infections is that the devices are running outdated versions that are vulnerable to exploits that remotely execute malicious code on them. Versions 7.1, 10.1, and 12.1, for example, were released in 2016, 2019, and 2022, respectively. What’s more, Doctor Web said it’s not unusual for budget device manufacturers to install older OS versions in streaming boxes and make them appear more attractive by passing them off as more up-to-date models.

I mean there’s knowing and there’s being certain. This seems quite likely.

Yeah between the forced binding arbitration and their claims to wanting to start pre-roll ads, Roku is dead to me, I will never buy another device from them nor recommend them to anyone.

ut never called it that. And I mostly would background or foreground tasks. I didn’t

yeah I had no idea about disown, Jesus the number of times I could have used that, I might have never learned tmux or screen :)

Had a little spark of glee looking at a fellow nix user in the wild

I’ve run both. Started with Gnome.

I didn’t absolutely love the UI but it wasn’t bad.

Installed a bunch of plugins poked it, prodded, tweaked it. Made it exactly what I wanted.

One time I tried KDE and found that it was exactly what I was turning gnome into with all the plugins.

Admittedly, I think the Gnome control panels and tools are nicer.

It sucked when Crashplan’s home client went under. If you installed the client on two computers with internet access, it would let you set the remote computer as a target. Encryption was done at the source, it had dedupe, versioning. It ate a little ram but it was really nice.

Yep, I tried Tailscale at home… 3 weeks later I started using it at work, so insanely easy.
