I have an Apple TV as well, and here are some things that really annoy me. First of all, the useless button on the side of the remote that I press by accident ALL THE TIME. Putting a button on the side of the remote where you grab it to pic

>Backblaze software is pretty reasonable. Hard disagree. The jankiness of their software was what made me cancel my sub after several years. Firstly it doesn't follow the OS date and number formatting. It's a minor thing, but i

I might have considered that for a millisecond, if Google hadn't demonetised a lot of the creators I care about. I'd rather support them directly.

Sure, but the announcement mentions and links to Bookworm media downloads which are old 11.7 media. It's confusing, annoying and honestly kind of amateurish. I like Debian, but this is a screw-up. 20:00 in mainland Europe and it's

But it's /not/ released though. Their own news section mentions that cd images are still being built, which seems like something that should have happened already. There's nothing but 11.7 available for download.

Reading the website, it seems this product is tied to Google. Instead of using a proprietary cloud service, you should work with CalDAV instead and make it accessible to everyone.

One major benefit of running webapps in an actual browser like Firefox, instead of Electron, is that I can have uBlock and a handful of other defensive plugins, to prevent shady things happening behind my back.

I remember there was a long period where everything would bundle Chrome. One wrong checkbox and your computer would be infested. Adobe Reader was one prominent example.

Electron exists because there's a horde of developers whose only tool is a JavaScript hammer, so every problem looks like a nail. That's how you end up rewriting `dd` for Chrome[π]. π: https://www.balena.io/etcher&

Yes, that was very sad. I really didn't think they would sink so low. I've always just used Raspbian on my Pi's without giving it much thought. Remotely activated Microsoft spyware was nowhere on my radar.

That will always be a risk, as long as you rely on cloud services. I started using Lastpass as well, but moved to Keepass as soon as they were eaten up by Logmein. I moved to Keepass and I keep the keyfile on OwnCloud. It works very well, a

Neither was I. I was a teenager in Denmark with internet access in the 90's. My family was poor, and I bought a modem with money I earned from my paper route. By most metrics, I was decidedly unprivileged.
