As a Canadian, the idea of a garbage disposal in a sink has always been insane to me. It can be hard to believe that Americans just grind up stuff and send it down their sink drain.

I broke 1 mini USB on my Blue Yeti over a decade ago, but no port would have been able to survive that torque, lol. Other than that, it’s usually rock solid

I would imagine this also prevents canadian influencers from earning money on tiktok. Maybe Canada is trying to limit the control byte dance has over so many Canadians’ income, who knows

You must have shingled/SMR drives. They do not work well with any type of raid array.

My array of 7x12TB drives resilvers in a few hours, as I made sure I got CMR drives

Fair, I also have a brother laser printer and have never had issues. I was in IT Support for many years and boy were printers ever a problem.

Even cheap ear buds / headphones and mice these days seem to be perfectly stable wireless though. They may break physically or just have shitty performing hardware, but the wireless part itself has been pretty good these days

I agree with the wireless being solved part, but printers still suck lol

Canadian English is also tire. We have a good mix of both sides

I guess we do, because I have not seen any window management improvements at all when switching to linux.

Did you last try windows 20 years ago or something? Windows definitely has touchpad gestures and robust window management. Dont get me wrong though, I don’t like windows anymore either. Switched off it a year ago

No, but that is an option if you dont have the hardware to self host it. I have it on one of my vms on my server in the basement.

EDIT: I just took another look at the github repo and it kind of looks like you can’t just selfhost it, but you can, the main readme is just a little confusing. Click on the “Setup your CouchDB” link in the manual section and the selfhosted via docker guide is there.

You should take a look at the selfhosted live sync plugin for obsidian. It’s been working flawlessly for me for the past year.

It’s a free security upgrade that the os gives you the option to use. There is an enteprise version that includes technical support, but that is an extra addon.

There is no fee for personal use.

Whats wrong with ubuntu pro?

Same here. Its just a much better experience through windows. I made a new system for my daily driver which runs linux and I only turn on my gaming desktop when i want to game. I stream it through steam remote play and it works great

If i remember right, it wasn’t just using brave, but including a referral id in brave searches. It wasn’t intended, and they fixed it, so all good with me.

Because it’s not downloading, which is the thing every one thinks is normal.

Not sure I get what you mean by this

I think we more just disagree with your points rather than miss them. We have never seen this term be scary for the non technically involved people in our lives, nor has the examples you provided to prove your point been considered scary to people we know.

Many times, people in this chain have effectively asked for proof of what you claim, but you just keep reiterating your feeling/opinion.

Now, it’s possible that everyone here just associates with people who aren’t afraid of technology enough to run across it, but that’s all we have to work with until provided evidence.

Gnome has only gotten better imo

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Since when are any of those examples considered dangerous lmao

Sideloading is exactly the same as a side road. It’s a less polished and a less intended road for people to take.
