Yeah, it scares me too. I am considering moving to Next Cloud, but for now I am using spanning.com to backup Google drive.

Everyone keeps saying they were optimised for vertical videos. No, they weren’t, they had normal horizontal videos that they cropped the sides off in vertical, and it obvious from their own marketing stuff that the video weren’t shot with t

Yeah, I don't see how Google could pursue something like that without turning a large part of the market off using Google technologies. Doesn't mean they wont try though.

Oh, it is very possible. Look at most ITIL software, although it might be hard, they usually don't have screenshots on their websites so the only way to see the product is in the company of a sales person. I wish we had something even

Or if you are already down for paying extra and want customization then you know, hire a competent Linux admin. It's not actually that hard to setup a self hosted solution that gives you the Heroku workflow.

Is there any open source self hosted alternatives to Google Drive that does on-demand sync instead of sync everything/selected folders? I have more stuff in Drive than any one of my computers can actually hold.

Yep, something like terraform + your favorite config management tool and monitoring system would do nicely for a mostly automated setup once done. I am guessing that a really nice setup could be created in under a month.

Far from it. The problem with smart TVs is that they provide an inferior experience to a dumb TV. They have sluggish menu systems, are slow to switch between inputs and startup times frequently measured in 10s of seconds. Compare that to du

For sure. Ruby is great for things other than rails, like automation, writing server scripts, and of course small api servers/web sites using sinatra. I use it all the time and still haven't actually done anything with Rails. The
