  • Louis Rossman has a video about goes Netflix will not play 4K content on Linux. For some reason they limited the video resolution to 720.

    Not sure if it’s still an issue. Also I had my brothers login for peacock and it didn’t run on Linux at all.

    Now I’m just using a mibox, and it’s pretty good and doesn’t feel spammy.

  • There was an iOS app I used like this that did a great job of scanning text books.

    After I used it for about 6 months this exact thing happened. Started charging fees for many different things.

    Exporting images as pdf had a charge, then scanning to make the text searchable had a fee.

    I just exported as jpg and used imagic and ocrmypdf to take care of this.

    Then I learned that iOS has a built in scanner in the files app, so I just switched to that one.

  • I 100% believe it. I hardly see birds anymore and that’s probably due to the insect population collapsing.

    I remember beetle bags full in them summer and tons of fireflies at night. Once my sister collected hundred of ladybugs in some tall grass

    We also used to always have ticks on us from the tall grass.

  • I always was taught that too. Maybe it was an old rule or maybe it’s after a certain time. Maybe it was never true and just something my parents taught me.

    Also, maybe Kamala and Colbert didn’t actually have alcohol in the can

  • I think you are 100% correct. Look at the iPad, it’s way overpowered for how limited iPadOS is.

    Making a new cpu each year is probably really expensive and they come with marginal differences.

    Apple can offer marginal iPhone processor increases and then take a few generations of marginal upgrades to release a new Mac processor with a bigger power jump.

  • I tried to go hard on privacy, but the more you know the more you realize how difficult it is.

    So, the best thing to do if figure out who you don’t want to see your info. If it’s the government then you are basically out of luck in my opinion.

    I stopped stressing about it when I decided to not let my need for privacy to interfere with my work.

    In my personal life, things are more private luckily.

  • Look at the 2016 MacBook Pro.

    They had a problem with the display cable and it can’t be easily replaced since it’s soldered to the display.

    You basically just need to get an entirely new display even though it’s just the cable.

    Additionally, some shops will resolder the cable, but it’s not a long term solution.

    Even replacing the display by Apple is not a long term solution because they replace it with another display that has a cable that’s slightly too short and will eventually break again.

    So the only real solution is to buy a new computer.

  • The author wrote a billion books and spinoffs. He is one of the best selling authors because of those books.

    About a month or two ago, I tried to watch the tv show version of the haunted mask. The show did not age well, and the acting was pretty bad.

    I guess you don’t notice that stuff as much when you are a kid.

  • Someone did a study on this and found that ceos typically count their working hours as anything that is related to work including commuting. Picking up dry cleaning, even lunches since you have them with clients or are allowed to eat at your desk.

    If we counted our hours the same way, then we would count things like preparing lunch and doing laundry.

  • Even having a switch, I still prefer to dump the games and play them on steamdeck. That way, I can just bring one device for gaming.

    Even is emulation is not perfect on the steamdeck, I’m still happy to play at lower performance or with some graphical glitches for the convenience.
