In the opposite words of someone much dumber than us, there are bad people on both sides

Looks to be a java application with a number of services running alongside- I don't think it's going to be lightweight to run on resource constrained devices, but sweet project anyway! (Side note, no clue how you engineers find the time to hack on things like this, I feel like I've got so little time to myself I cannot imagine dedicating it to a project like this)

Yeah but you are a person presumably, so there is accountability. The reason to use AI is to escape accountability

Just create a black hole network at your house and connect all 'smart' appliances to that. Block all traffic at the router level. This prevents them trying to connect to open mesh networks and also provides the benefit of cataloging all the traffic

Missed out on one by a couple years through the citizenship by ancestry program:-/

It looked like they lost power in both engines, but hard to tell without audio. I was thinking bird strike, but couldn't see birds in the CCTV video. Looked to be a cloud of dust or something just on rotation.

Nothing is ever done, even when it evolves to a great functional state that everyone is familiar with, and it works perfectly well. No, we need to fiddle with it to "keep it fresh" which inevitably makes it worse in some way.

Delaying things might be enough if the state can do it for years

A shame, such a tasteless choice. If you had as much class as money, you'd have chosen something like a vintage 1960s submariner rather than a frivolous toy available on every high street in the world.

The state of California could implement say, an 80% state income tax. This would be deductable from federal tax per IRS tax code. The state could then create an instant tax credit to credit back a gross 69% income, leaving 11% to the state to match their current tax rate.

The Feds would only get tax on 20% of wages, unlike the 89% they do now

Yes, but most bloodthirsty monsters don't get to use advanced military weapons and don't receive billions in aide to seek blood

I'm not sure myself, there seems to be better software out there for each individual part of what nextcloud does, but not the whole thing. I've been reading up on open cloud, which is a fork of a rewrite of owncloud, which is what nextcloud is forked from. https://opencloud.eu/en/opencloud-community

I haven't tried it out yet though.

You know where you notice this? As an American buying appliances in Europe. You can buy a front loading washing machine for 300€, including VAT. A refrigerator? 400€. Three years ago I paid 1800 for a fridge in the us, and last year bought a scratch and dent special washing machine for $600

Edit: and US prices are not including Tax.

I wouldn't say categorically that it sucks.

1. It is inefficient and requires far too many server resources for what it does. Won't really run on less than 2gb/RAM minimum, with 1-2 users.
2. Add ONS seem to be all over the place with lots of incompatibilities, some default add ons that just plain don't work.
3. In my short testing it seems to be a bit unstable.

In my opinion, it suffers from many of the same problems as other projects that started out and we're developed largely by hobbyists like zoneminder, and even home assistant to some extent. Sprawling growth, no strict architecture, little concern for refactoring.

Not me, but my mom bought a Sentra SER lightly used, and got the $1500 dealer special warranty. The warranty had all kinds of stipulations like she had to have the maintenance done at that dealer, with nissan parts, etc, all ways to weasel out of it. Also had to have the service records in full.

Year 1: manual transmission stopped going into reverse, replaced

Year 2: engine failure, replaced

Year 3: manual transmission started popping out of all gears, replaced.

Year 4: bought a Mazda

Each time they tried to deliver the bad news that she'd have to pay $4500 or whatever, but she kept meticulous records, serviced it exactly on time at the original dealer, and insisted on nissan parts so there was nothing they could say. They even tried to say maybe she didn't know how to drive manual, but she'd been driving exclusively manuals for decades, and you guessed it, she had all the documentation to prove it.

That $1500 warranty probably cost the dealer at least $10k

It can go either way, some people like the method, others hâte it because it's not gamified. Pro tip, get pimsleur courses from your library if you want to try them for a real trial rather than what they give you

We're going to see a lot more software going down the shitter as companies downsize, scale in, lay off with the plan to use AI to save money.

It used to be "move fast break things". Now it's more like "vibe code good enough"

I have a well seasoned good quality one that makes eggs as well as a nonstick pan. Took time to get to that point though. Sugary American bacon is the surest way to end up having to reseason it though.

I think a few hours with a torch and they would make fantastic dumpsters. Imagine if you could crab walk a self moving dumpster? Genius

Companies aren't held to contracts like people are held to contracts. One buyout, restructuring, name change, no more contract. It's meaningless
