I first noticed this type of thing happening when "Ok Google, play Release Radar" started playing a "Releaseradar" album/single vs. my Spotify Release Radar playlist as it used to. Simply infuriating.

There are definitely cases where it seems to have worked out. My sense, like yours, is that it largely depends on how "community driven" the project is at that point. If it has many independent core developers/main contributo

If core developers are bought up by a single company, I'd be wary of the future control, direction and progress of the project. The open source version would likely stagnate as the commercial version gains features. It'd be hard n

Been running 2 Samsung 500GB ssd (1 USB3 direct, 1 via USB3 hub) on rpi4 24/7 since boot from USB first landed (May?). Mostly video recording/backup workload. I’ve had no issues and sitting at 36d uptime right now.

While Scattered Minds does a good job describing the “experience” of ADHD and will likely resonate with people who have the condition, a lot of its conclusions are not scientifically supported. ADHD is a nuerodevelopmental disorder, it has

There will be a transfer of energy to the system if there is an interaction, but will only absorb the incident photon at specific energies. In the case of reflection in this classical view, it simply re-emits the energy back out as there ar
