It does seem pretty fun to watch every time there is a small scene in movies or tv.

Even on windows sometimes depending on the target host, I’ve had to type host.local. (Final dot to do exact match) instead of host.local
This didn’t seem to affect other domains. I’m assuming it was due to special handling of .local
I’ve seen videos mentioning they have started cancelling plans opened on a different region to save money using VPN software, so be careful how much you rely on it.
For item #1, self hosted solutions like home assistant also allow using “smart” devices without the cloud in some instances. You are not at the mercy of a vendor going out of business or dropping support and your devices becoming bricks.
Not all devices are compatible, but from what I’ve learned, I would never buy another device with so called “smart” features if it is not compatible with home assistant.
For #1 I would say not to focus on learning the same kind of thing that you started at some point recently. It took me a few months to get my local setup going since I would do it after work (also similar skills) and get tired of poking around.
At some point I gave up and started doing other things that brought me joy (video games, paint night with YouTube tutorials, movies/TV). When I finally decided to get back to it, it was enjoyable again. If I have to re-do it from scratch it could be done in probably a few hours or at most some nights after work and would be enjoyable since the annoying “got ya” lessons are somewhere on memory or some searches away that could be filtered much quicker.
I have made that migration myself going from a Raspberry PI 4 to a n100 based NAS. It was 10 minutes for the software stack as you said This not taking into account media migration which was done on the background over a few hours on WiFi (I had everything on an external hard drive at the time).
That last part is the only thing I would change about my self hosting solution. Yes, the NAS has a nice form factor, is power efficient and has so far been very optimal for my needs (no lag like rpi4), however I have seen they don’t really sell motherboard or parts to repair them. They want you to replace it with another one. Reason 2 on the same is vendor lock in. Depending on the options you select when creating the storage groups/pools (whatever they are called), you could be stuck needing to get something from the same vendor to read your data if the device stops working but the disks are salvageable. Reason 3 is they’ve had security incidents so a lot of the “features” I would not recommend using ever to avoid exposing your data to ransomware over the internet. I don’t trust their competitors either. I know how commercial software is made with the smallest amount of care for security best practices.
Tilting the controller made sense at the time of the Wii as well.
I’m not a customer, but I personally avoid any company offering that mentions crypto and/or AI. I’m guessing I’m not alone based on some responses here. They are just the latest buzz words to try to inflate company value and I’m tired of them.
I started migrating off from Google products (homepage, chrome, drive soon) and my laptop does not have windows anymore for example. It’s hard to get customer trust back after it is lost.
Do you have proof yourself? You started the whole debate.
Dang, I used to use Nooblet when playing crysis wars a long time ago. All the flying tanks kind of ruined it after a while, but it was nice to find a moderated server running Savanah and Battleground which had the Helis and VTOLs…
I feel like the local only devices do have a place in the home automation sector (e.g. home assistant compatible with no cloud integrations).
Most vendors want to lock you into their crappy cloud system that will someday be offline and render things useless however.
Those things never worked for me… Problems always persisted or it failed to apply the restore point. This is from the XP and Windows 7 days, never bothered with those again. To Microsoft’s credit, both W7 and W10 were a lot more stable negating the need for it.
Think of it as ClownStrike, they will be known as a bunch of clowns after this.
I think the point is the developers might have just migrated the code without adjustments since that is how it was implemented before. Similar to how PC game ports sometimes run like shit since they are a close 1-1 of the original which is not always the most optimized or ideal, but the quickest to output.
While that is true, items are purposely made unrepairable now. You don’t have right to repair movements because John Deere and Apple devices are so much more complex to repair for common failure points. You have those movements emerging because companies make it extremely difficult in the name of profit or style. With equally skilled (and due to the internet more informed) and capable repair personnel not being able to even partake in the process.
Reminds me of “Roonil Wazlib”.
Just saying, it could be worse and some of us don’t mind yaml ;)
I feel like a lot of people from different countries would fit that description after the fact since technology was more expensive and it took us longer to be able to afford the new and trendy items.
As someone that uses both Java and k8s at work. I’ll take yaml over xml any day of the week. Maven build files are like 50% useless fluff.
I was wondering if they were doing CPU transcoding in plex instead of using a client that supports direct playback. A few Apple TVs can generally do the trick at a much lower cost and double as YouTube and other streaming services clients.
