Upvoting this because I don't see this sentiment expressed too often on here. In fact, I often see the opposite. "Why would I pay $X*2 for this service when I can just pay $X to Google for the same thing?" Sometimes it takes

So essentially less than the cost of two tickets to see a movie in theaters today. The horror.

There was a honeymoon period after Nadella took the reigns where it looked like they were putting out good products - Edge before enshittification, VS Code, buying GitHub.

Don't you think this is why alarm bells should be going off right now about Google's complete domination of primary school systems? Google Classroom and Chromebooks are everywhere. Google Docs is the lingua franca, not Microsoft W

I think the biggest revelation of the last 3 years or so is that Microsoft does not have either the will or the talent (or both) to effectively execute anymore. Everything it currently stands on is a legacy product with roots in the Ballmer

The height of me using Microsoft Office in a personal capacity was when I was in school and university. I've been fine living out of Google Docs since then. At work, my company is a Google Workspace customer and I have to say I've

does the ugreen NAS reserve port 80/443 for its own reverse proxy solution? It annoys me that Synology does that

Have you had any issues with the continuous export writing to a network volume? And does it work for all users in a family plan? That was my plan as well, but I’d like to only have to run one export job

I’ve experimented with both Immich and Ente over the last year and run Immich in parallel with Google Photos right now for my family. Once they add a few more features to support things like smart albums, I’ll be able to drop Google Photos

You can self host it. It used to be a fairly complicated procedure but I think they simplified it recently, but I haven’t tried it again since then

I think Ente uses MinIO for storage, I could see them supporting the ability to self-host in S3 at some point

Closest is probably C# but its still primarily an OOP driven language

Oh I think they see it, the problem is that they can’t execute anymore. They are pivoting in the same direction but nobody wants to use the XBox Store on Windows and nobody trusts Game Pass anymore.

I built a new desktop PC last fall and every Linux distro I have tried this year has WiFi working out of the box. Contrast that with Windows where I need to keep the drivers on a USB stick so I can bootstrap myself on a fresh install

I bet that the systems that Microsoft employees used internally at the time (mid 2000s) were the ones probably best supported by Vista in terms of drivers and performance.

I've experimented with Cloudflare tunnels before to sit in front of my Immich instance in my homelab. Only issue is the 100MB upload size for videos. But Immich added upload chunking support to their roadmap so its possible this will w

I have been trying for a long time to find a way to play my PC games from my couch without dragging my desktop into the living room. Steam Link works okay but is still noticeable for some games. Docking a Steam Deck wasn’t powerful enough.

GCP had second mover advantage in that they got to build a lot of constructs to segment identity and network access in ways that make sense. It's incredibly easy to give a service account access to conduct an action in every folder and
