Most times I listen to records.

For digital music, I have a local collection. I copy chunks of it to my phone periodically for remote listening.

Making people pay over and over again for the same product is the greatest trick businesses ever pulled.

I’ll take cherrypicking for $500, Alex

Ah yes, of course, Donald Trump, president of Israel

This. All of these problems are solved by people not giving money. But often it seems difficult for people to actually stand behind principle when the time comes – convenience is a helluva drug.

You need jobs before you can have hiring

The power of “it won’t apply to me” is apparently cosmic.

Then posts photos of non-billionaires trying to enter government

To each their own I guess (which is the point after all :) ). I’ve never had an issue with Jellyfin for music in the few years I’ve used it. All setups are different though.

I’ve never had an issue, hm.

Fantastsic post!

FWIW I suspect Jellyfin is the better choice for libraries with both music and movies. That said, we live in a world where multiple FOSS options exist to serve these roles. That should be appreciated and noticed by waaaay more people.

There aren’t really many choices when it comes to mobile OS.

How can there be this much bullshit going on every day worldwide and people are just showing up to work like usual

Google has either overt or tacit monopolies. They haven’t cared about losing users for years, and by and large, they have been correct that it doesn’t matter. YouTube is so ubiquitous that it may as well be a public utility.

Now I’m definitely sticking with LaTeX. Thanks.

business part of it

This is the part I don’t want.

It is, perhaps, the only thing he touches that is made in the USA.

I bet Tim Apple is really happy about his large donation to the Trump inauguration.

Then again, if you’re that rich, maybe having some intelligence and foresight should be an expectation. If you don’t have those things, maybe you shouldn’t be rich.

That said, for a 25% tariff, it isn’t even close. Still far cheaper for Apple to manufacture outside of the US and pass that additional cost to the US consumer.

Is it just me, or does that sound like a monopoly?

Do any creatives attempt to create assets for another platform?

I’m really not blaming creatives on this one. Obviously they need to make money. But this seems like a clear case of advantage being taken against one skillset by virtue of monopoly.

I’d say it seems like the key issue affecting creatives, if AI didn’t exist.

As an outsider: how did we get to a point where every creator is limited to one box?
