I can manage to skip FB altogether, but 99% of my friends and family are on Messenger

Libre Office then?

True

Definitely feels emptier than it was a few months earlier, but so far I enjoy the “I’m not just a pawn in an ocean of users” feel that Lemmy gives vs Reddit

The NHL is stuck in the 90s with that Clown

Its not good for the general aura surrounding the release. I don’t follow the game actively but all I hear is negativity.

Oh that’s one movie I would love to watch.

I know I can’t escape Google’s Orwellian surveillance entirely but I limit what I can, and adblockers/ trackerblockrers play a huge part in this.

If you have more than two streaming services it now cost more than cable.

We’ve come full circle, guys!

Its an in house utility… But I would assume something similar already exists out there

Its a very simple low ressource video server utility that I’m using for easy access at work.

Its basically a stupid low footprint plex-like local web server that uses the browser’s internal HEVC support to play and cast to my TV.

With MS hinting at SAAS for Win12 with Copilot, this will be a good test.

Nobody can profit off “monthly usage credits” or without a subscription.

At least not until the tech becomes more affordable.

Firefox doesn’t have native HEVC support. So I switched to Opera because no other browser except for Safari has that feature.

Supposedly Edge has it, but couldn’t get it to work on my media server app.

I tried Opera on a few of my devices lately and frankly I’m impressed by the responsiveness. I still can’t get rid of Firefox but I find myself moving over to Opera more and morem

We truly live in an idiocracy

We use Apple Computers at work and when I go to someone’s computer and realize that “natural scrolling” is on I can’t help but judge them internally. Monsters.

That’s a silly excuse. At roughly $20 / TB, a 150gb game shouldn’t be an issue

I don’t believe this

I like the “never consent” feature of Ghostery (automatically declines all cookies when asked )

Does Privacy Badger have a similar feature?

That’s the way I see it as well. And probably why we don’t see that metric often. GDP is more an accurate indicator of financial stability / purchasing power (although also flawed)
