That's impossible. The Play Store app doesn't care about Sync's cache. That was simply coincidence.

Cleaning the Play Store app's cache on the other hand might help.

It's also well known that so called anti-virus software is doing crazy shit on your machine and is actually opening it up for many exploits.

I live in Germany, where high speed trains are the norm and traveling by train is pretty common. It's still much more expensive than flying. But at least it's getting faster and faster, to a point where it beats traveling by car or even plane. Munich to Berlin (600 km) in less than four hours, nothing can beat that.

For me, both price and time are very compelling reasons to fly, unfortunately.

The state of the environment is an even more compelling reason for me not to. But for many people it's not. That's why the price of flying must be raised enough, and alternatives like traveling by train must be made more attractive. So that there is enough reason not to fly for everyone.

:(

What an absolute bullshit of an explanation. I hate this. Just be honest and say it's not worth it.

Settings shortcut: Privacy > Revoke GDPR consent for ads

For me, everything was disabled once I opened the dialog options. Legitimate interest was still enabled, but that's compliant to the GDPR.

I've noticed that no ads are shown when you disable all tracking and reject cookies. Might be EU only though.

Where is the option to pay once? I can't find it.

You don't want the developer to earn any money?

So you literally need much more than a networked raspberry pi with a content hard drive, and Kodi installed anywhere.

But that's the point I'm making. It's absolutely fine that it's not as simple as using a ready-made service. And we shouldn't behave like it is, because that's just not true.

And where does the content come from?

If that is your stance, then there is literally zero privacy anymore. Zilch.

If I'm walking down the street and somebody marks that one person walked down the street, does that invade my privacy?

In that case, how does the concept of privacy even matter anymore? There is none, and there never will be.

Even though many people suggest that, I don't believe you can compare any off-the-shelf streaming service with a self-hosted Plex.

You have to find and download content to your Plex. You don't get recommendations. You don't get a built-in interface on your smart TV. You have to deal with network configuration, VPN, private trackers, seeding ratios etc.

How on earth is that comparable to pressing the Netflix button on your TV and selecting a recommended show? Even my boomer parents managed to do this on their own.

Reminder that almost every single one of us is part of the world's richest 10%.

If we want a really free and open high quality codec, we should push for opus support via bluetooth

Isn't the new default codec in BLE Audio LC3 free and open and high quality? And it's required for BLE Audio support, so there will be more and more devices that support it.

Or, as it's called in the rest of the world, degree Celsius.
