Nuclear power is so cool. After SneakerNet (Sandworm) and Chernobyl Is think a lot of people would be scared of it. I used to think wind power was an awesome source until you look at life expectancy and cost for replacement parts. You can get like 10-15years but a solar farm lasts 25+ before degrading.

The arr stack alone is 8-12 IPs. Basic net stack is 3-6. Servers, personal devices, IoT…shit adds up.

They don’t support RCS. Plus, SMS is transmitted unencrypted. If you care about privacy of conversations then SMS is not it. You either: Give in (what I did) and use Google Messages with RCS or use something like Signal and convince everyone your regularly message to use it too.

Lies! It uses electricity!

I’ve heard MusicAssistant can now do radio stations and using (local) AI to generate a DJ that will announce the song and some other neat tricks. I haven’t used it in a while. Check out SmartHomeSolver (Reed) on YT, he had a video on it.

A digital or physical copy of a receipt. But then how would they know the receipt is theirs? Well, they don’t. There are a subset of users who have bit for but copies. I think if they came into some legal trouble having that vs a rip would be better since the data is in tact the same way it was when purchased. Can I easily be called a backup.

I’m not your lawyer and I’m definitely not a lawyer anyway. Just playing Devis Advocate.

If so this is clever. In the wild event they get into some sort of trouble with copying, they have a bit-for-bit copy proving they own/owned the BluRay instead of a ripped copy.

I, too, run an always on VPN from my mobile devices. I can still access my home network with pihole and DNS entries to my services. It’s not that difficult. I agree though, mTLS is a good option.

A “/s” would have been helpful to note the saracasm.

Damn that’s clever.

Fuck around, Find out!

I’m not shilling for LMG, but something like Floatplane would make sense. You pay per creator for their extra content and ad free viewing and the cut goes in favor to the creator. Of course Floatplane has to also make money. They’re not in it to serve you ads or use your data to make money. If that took off I could easily see people paying 3-5 creators monthly to watch their videos ad free with extras on one platform.
