You’d need to rollback the last 70 years of pensions being replaced by 401k plans and/or limit responsibility to the brokers. If you hire a licensed plumber that ends up flooding your neighbor’s place, the plumber is the one getting sued.

It would probably also be good to restructure retirement incentives away from the stock market, but that’s not going to happen overnight either.

Same, been kicking myself since I found out it was all gone a few weeks ago. Don’t know why I didn’t make a ‘just in case’ backup / export.

Still infuriating they can just go “oops all gone”. It came through the roll-out fine, I remember looking stuff up in February. As far as I can tell it was a later unrelated glitch.

Google also accidentally deleted a random amount of user’s timeline data if you didn’t immediately catch it and restore from back up last March before the affected backups were overwritten. If you didn’t keep a close enough watch on your timeline to know that that happened, everything before ~Feb 2025 is gone now.

Ask me how I know. Yes I kept up on permissions. Yes I had backups on. No I didn’t have a new device. I even have dozens of available gigabytes of paid storage on Google One.

I’m sure it will only get more stable due to maps and timeline being revenue generators that encourage investment.

I feel like using that statistic is misleading in terms of efficiency just from the factor of “gallons of gas per pound of food transported”.

Sure there’s spoilage from product going bad, but marginal efficiency gains there are so far down the list of things to worry about that they’re not really worth going into. The reason people don’t have food isn’t because enough isn’t produced, it’s because they’re not allowed to have it because they don’t have enough money. Less food spoiling doesn’t fix that problem.

If the message is “that circle of people in the back of the crowd are mumbling something”, it doesn’t matter.

More people checking out instead of getting involved means the more easily influenced are all that remain to campaign for.

Also it’s Hard Rock Cafe, they have a burger with shrimp on it, what’s so weird about mix n’ matching patties?

It helps when you don’t care if the answers are true, just that you have “answers”.

Hackers is a movie without lies and nothing can convince me otherwise.

Probably a me problem but kept having problems with that docker on unraid, it’s just in the community apps ‘store’. The vm seemed to just crash randomly.

I switched over to their B2 storage and just use rclone to an encrypted bucket and it’s ~<$5/mo which I’m good with. Biggest cost is if I let it run too often and it spends a bunch of their compute time listing files to see if it needs to update them.

Building from source is always going to come with complications. That’s why most people don’t do it. A docker compose file that ‘just’ downloads the stable release from a repo and starts running is dramatically more simple than cross-referencing all your services to make sure there are no dependency conflicts.

There’s an added layer of complexity under the hood to simplify the common use case.

Well he’s Finnish, but I don’t think he’s finished yet.

Yes. Even with Plex I’ve had people just never log in. Or after I log them in and set it as a favorite they just never go to the unfamiliar icon.

Most of the problem isn’t even Plex/Jellyfin/etc.'s fault, it’s that the UI of smart tvs is a nightmare hellscape running on underpowered hardware and people just want to interact with it as little as possible. The absolute best thing would be to copy Netflix/Disney/etc and throw a QR code on the screen to sidestep that by throwing authentication to the phone.

There’s always Tasker.

It’s stupidly powerful once you get used to how it works, even without root, and it can definitely patch into the default “share” functionality.

Are you looking for something like Pocket?

There are self-hosted things a lot like it. Vivaldi and some other browsers have similar functionality. Not sure about downloading the videos, but there are other tools for that.

And a 4tb SSD is the same price as a 16tb HDD.

If that trend continues, when you get to a 100tb of SSD(s) the equivalently priced HDD(s) will have 100x the capacity.

Garmin Instinct ticks those boxes.

They’re what I switched to when my pebbles died. Backed everything but the Round. The fitness stuff is a bit overkill but can turn it all off. If you have one of the solar Instincts and don’t use GPS you’ll get significantly more than a week battery life.

Neat!

One of my few remaining Google dependencies is maps and timeline. I just like having that data somewhere and most of the FOSS stuff I’ve seen previously is piecemeal at best. Will have to play with this.

By that logic signing up for Selective Service in the US means the US doesn’t have a volunteer military.

Perfect use case
