Could you please elaborate what you mean by saying “hardware security updates”?

Are you implying that impaired driving shouldn’t count as a criminal offence?

They’re proobably working on how to track messages on the way, like “hey, wanna use RCS? here’s our com.google.rcs library”, which by coincidence sends every message to Google.

AgGuard was (is?) big on Android and DNS. Helped to get rid of ads in many apps.

I’m curious to hear more about this. What’s the app?

Right, I use Plex now too. However, it only has things that I already downloaded. So if we don’t plan, we end up watching something on Netflix instead of spending extra time on looking+downloading+going back and forth between rooms.

That’s fair, if this was your case. No point in paying for something you don’t like.

As much as I hate old titles disappearing, I also enjoy the new content Netflix offers. To each their own, I guess.

Now imagine you have a family that likes to watch TV in the living room and not in your room.

This would be strange if Netflix didn’t have enough of easily accessible good content.

When after finishing work we want to watch “a movie”, it’s much easier to choose a Netflix recommendation than to do a half an hour reasearch online and then wait for the movie to be downloaded.

Now add to this time, energy, and expertise needed for looking up and trying pirating options, figuring out technical aspects, paying for a VPN, doing maintenance… Very few can and are willing to do all that.

They might want to look into new pipelines, this might be a bit more impactful.

Mine have a weird bug when I sometimes hear following messages one right after another after turning them on:

Connected – Disconnected – Pairing

Not really. The largest English-speaking country is in top-50 articles by views on English Wikipedia.

Doesn’t work for me with or without VPN, Canada or not. Weird.

In this story, Israel “just” provides the software.

I’ve had a great experience with Dropbox (for about 10 years!), but I also used their Linux client which is old and very straightforward. Now I’m a Nextcloud user, and I wish it worked as well as Dropbox did. But with this AI thing I’m not switching back.

It wasn’t “built on Activitiy Pub”, and I don’t believe they will ever implement the protocol.
