That is a bummer. BMW owns them now ans I LOVE the media controls on ours. Simple & straightforward.

If we’ve learned anything, it’s that Drump supporters won’t learn anything. This group is just a duffle bag of dick cheese. They’ll embrace and baselessly defend him no matter where we/he/the media goes. RIP USA.

Corporate “motivational” nonsense. Leave the woodpile higher, write everything in pencil, drink your most expensive wine first. Some companies base - quite literally - everything on these nonsense blurbs.

That, and the way many [past] jobs tried to cover up the lack of compensation opportunities and bumps by things like basketball courts, restaurants on “campus” (sigh), goat yoga… I can’t feed my family with a basketball court at the office. I guess I could feed them a yoga goat but I surmise it would be frowned upon.

Thank goodness for WFH. Never going back.

Thank you for your contribution, Vaginal_blood_fart.

I’m in the same boat and state of thought here. I’ve got a monster Plex collection on an unnecessarily large NAS… But; I pay for Spotify, YouTube and Proton. I use them all, I see value and still use a piHole, uBlock and all that stuff like nothing changed. More power to you.

But, SatansMaggotyCumFart, I figured you to be a fierce advocate of organized religion especially of the WASP variety.

I’m just spit balling here; but I think Mr Lumpy Pillow might have been better off as a crackhead.

See, Mike Lindell liked crack before the Lumpy Pillow Co™ but there isn’t a drug stronger than sheep-minded snowflake stupidity and the means to be loud and obnoxious with it.

He was never in this much financial trouble, which is quite a feat, and his mental state could be argued was many times more sane as a cooked coke fiend.

MY MOM TOLD ME TO TURN THE MUSIC DOWN BUT I JUST KEPT ON CRANKING THAT TOILET HANDLE. NO ONE TELLS ME WHEN TO STOP DROPPING SOLID MEAT LOAFS.

Jarrod could be completely innocent in this whole ordeal, but I can’t be the only one thinking…

Don’t kill me, I’ll cum :(

Idk if you meant it as hyperbole… But yes, yes, he is sick enough to try that. And a sliver of even bigger morons would/will vote for him.

Adam22 looking weird

That was a well thought out and utterly terrifying take. I believe many of the points you’ve made will indeed be true, much to my chagrin.

I was lurking in the comments here to see if other Boost users are going to Sync since we don’t have Boost for Lemmy yet. I’m going to wait and see what happens before I support one of them with my wallet, but so far Sync is clean and intuitive.

Honestly I’m glad I’m not the only one. I’ve got a NuPhy %75 on order + a few I rotate as daily drivers and I’m opening and closing the pre-order page for this one now, over and over. Why are we like this 🫠

Agreed, I meant expensive for personal use. Everything in the AV space is pretty hard on the wallet :)

It’s primarily used in audio/video from my experience. They’re quite expensive, or they were when I last interacted with them: https://www.rossvideo.com/control-systems/routing-control/ultritouch/

I cannot wait. @Rubén making Boost for Lemmy is what moved me here. 🚀🚀’s immediately when it’s available 🙏🏼.

Honest comment with a bit of a question buried in here this novella… I use Google devices; Pixel Pro’s, Pixel watches, Nest hubs, Nest thermostats, etc. This is a understood agreement (not symbiotic) between me and the behemoth that is Alphabet: I pay them for hardware, and use their “free services” that are heavily subsidized by pillaging my data. I know the hardware does it too, and I’m paying.

I’ve switched most of my networking and cameras to UniFi, my browsers are all Firefox… The question is what’s next? I dislike Apple iPhones but like my wife’s MacBook, but I’m a nerd. All of my devices need to “play nice” in their respective ecosystem. I’m tired of having the inbox app, hangouts, etc only to find Google has grown tired or doesn’t care and scraps them.

When the iPhone 15 comes out, I was getting the wife that and myself the Pixel 8P. Now I struggle. The “ultra” premium phones (we both care most about camera) are few and defined. I don’t want to jump to Apple, it’s the same thing, just packaged differently. Ugh.

Duplicati. It just works. Paired with Backblaze (not free) it’s been our default home backup for a long time.
