I used dsub and subsonic forever and loved them. Subsonic got to be frustrating because it was a subscription and then stopped getting any updates. I switched to Plex and never looked back.

You're being pedantic, but I'm sure you understand the point.

Have you even looked at the computer electronics business? Or lived a few decades? Otherwise how can you have no experience of a company deciding your use of a product doesn't meet THEIR expectations and so they invalidate your warranty claim? Heck, look at what Intel is doing right now with its 13 and 14 series chips.

Legality is nothing without enforcement, and there's like none of that for warranties in the US, and even less for global companies with overseas HQs.

I saw a lot of negative comments in a YouTube thread. I only played the OG once, so perhaps it's not sacred enough to me, but what I saw looked good.

P.s. when I completed my first playthrough, it was in 2021. My experience is that the original is not as good, now---compared to modern games and storytelling---than rose-colored glasses might suggest.

I had no trouble recognizing him.

Technical people can struggle when a choice isn't a zero or a one.

I mean, I interpreted that as acknowledgement that Lemmy is still 1% the size of Reddit, for example.

... I'm shocked. I thought all development on subsonic had dried up. I used it and dsub for literal years, but switched to Plex after it seemed I was paying for nothing. :(

Uncertain software support is why I picked a P8p over that device, even when I prefer it's hardware over the P8p.

It's believable. If 25% of the warrants they receive are for location data, there is a shed load of money to be saved by simply not storing it.

Probably simple math, whether or not the stored location data is more valuable than the cost of legal compliance.

I agree it's a bad first step. I'd keep trying idea on the table, but I'd start by working with the European car manufacturers to create huge tariffs on those cars. Make it impossible for them to be sold at those prices in Western markets

Interesting. The back of a tube of sensodyne in my medicine cabinet right now says that stannous fluoride may stain teeth. Hard to understand why a 2013 article would contradict a 2023 toothpaste warning.

 

It seems like microfiber materials should be a major contributor to micro plastics, especially with all the laundering of the microfiber cloths and clothes.
