I understand your reasoning for not setting up the other *arr apps, due to not having a dedicated server to run them, however you'd still benefit from running them on your PC. They handle the downloading, extraction, categorising and naming of the media you want and they can do that automatically.
Even on your computer, that'll save you time and effort, you can just tell it what shows you want - even shows that aren't out yet and it'll grab them for you whenever they appear. It's great for when you enjoy a show and the next season starts, it just grabs it for you and the show appears one day.
A lot of people start this way and it's only then they think about getting a dedicated device for it - such a device can be a decent little Synology or QNAP NAS, something small, quiet and power efficient but I'd definitely say you don't need to start there. It's worth the effort to try though, believe me.
The banking app I use takes advantage of on device biometrics and in terms of payments, the secure element in my phone. I trust it more than I trust a browser.
I wish they had more 2.5G or even SPF+ options in this range. I'm lucky enough to have a >1gigabit home connection but router options are surprisingly limited if I want that full connection speed going to my server
I think you're missing the point I'm getting at. The Linux challenge was specifically a gaming challenge, or at least gaming was a significant part of the challenge and while yes, gaming has indeed come a long way in recent years (and the stream deck is helping drive that further), it still has as long way to go.
You need to separate the "what's doable" fun "what works out of the box", it's the latter that can fall down for most people and the second you have to open as terminal, you've lost the audience that we're talking about.
I thought the Linux gaming pc challenge was fair. You have to remember that most users are not technical at all and that's where Linux falls down.
The only thing I disagreed with him majorly on was his complaint about the GitHub interface not downloading files you click on by default. I get where he's coming from as a non-dev, it's jarring and confusing but as a developer that's the last thing you'd want. His complaint about GitHub's interface really should have been directed at all those people using GitHub as a place to store files. But that's so intrinsic to Linux, it's hard to get away from yet it's something that does prevent Linux from appealing to the mainstream.
Don't get me started on the reliance upon the terminal and bash scripts to achieve anything. I cringe every time someone says "just go here and copy/paste these commands", not just because it's unintuitive but because it's also a major security risk. Not that windows is innocent of this either but it's much more common in Linux.
A lot of people complain about the clickbait headlines or that he's hamming it up for the camera. He does get a lot of hate.
I personally find him entertaining and I like most of the other presenters. I don't mind the clickbait headlines because they're all clickbait, it's like a running joke itself.
The jokes they're referring to are very much a boomer thing as well. The ol' ball and chain, that sort of stuff is prevalent. Just take a look at any of the "boomer humour" communities and you'll see what I mean.
Not many of the silent generation posting shit memes to Facebook.
If they try to do it, they'll only be able to do it on Pixel phones. They could theoretically force other manufacturers to use a specific launcher, but all that'll do is piss them off and have android forked. It'll achieve nothing.
The antitrust lawsuits would quickly pile in as well, Google would not have a leg to stand on. Comparing Google to Reddit is comparing Apples to Dinosaurs.
Why are you fixing his PR's? Reject them for now following your own practices and link to the documentation about those practices that the PR violates.
You're not holding up the sprint doing this, he is. As a team, you agreed these practices and everyone needs to follow them. If he refuses, raise it with his line manager.
Either his Line manager will put him in line, or he'll agree that the standards you decided upon don't need to be followed. Take your pick.
