I grab only video because I refuse to use shitty streaming tech as well as a uncertain ever changing librarys

You shall not own anything

Exactly! Distributor should not be able to lock you in with exclusive content, this kills the free market of distribution of media

Like now we have competitors fighting against each other for having the best library, but they don’t compete against each other in the case of technology of distribution

For example A disney plus exclusive has a monopol distribution way, there is no competition about how to serve the content. Meaning, there is no incentive to improve distribution. Simple capitalism. Capitalism “works” only in favour of the consumer, as long as the government ensures free market everywhere by regulating too big players who are destroying the whole concept.

If a newcomer can’t enter a market anymore, the market is not free.

I am at step 3, but if you only start piracy when it is already gone, well then it is already gone…

So we have to archive earlier to avoid lost media as well as start seeding earlier to ensure redundancy to avoid lost media

In my opinion, it is very important to give our history of art to the future of humanity. Proactive piracy is the only way to achieve this in times of sudden complete delistings and removal of access to already bought games.

Yea, and it is ultimately Spotify who had an exploit that allowed the circumvention of DRM in the first place.

It is like Spotify is getting paid for having shitty tech that doesn’t do what it supposed to do correctly

Yes, as if they ever get that hypothetical money from Anna 🤣 it is just wasted money

Offline computing?!

But

We have policy to have an admin account and a normal business premium (with enterprise windows add-on)

So I enroll them to my main 😂 since we have a hybrid setup, I have like 50 dead objects under my account in intunne (hybrid generets a dead object beside the real one during autopilot)

I just switch the primary user in intune

😂it takes a fucking day to install all updates on the new PCs i set up at my workplace and download speed on our side is definitely not the bottleneck

At least it does the heavy lifting in background so my coworkers don’t realise how slow it is, but maybe it is by design, so that it doesn’t impact workflow 🤷🏻

But definitely not what i call “fast"

Umm, no

When I enroll a new device at work I have literally one day only to let it run through autopilot (hybrid setup) let all policies (GPO and MDM) trigger and install all the updates (windows and vantage (Lenovo))

Ironically this still an improvement over the HP devices filled to the top with slop…

But imagine giving such a device to a new coworker 😂 as MS intends you to do with autopilot (i set it up with my account and switch the primary after all updates are done)

LoL, this looks like a Deadpool Pokemon card

Replace the cat with “ADHS Dad”

Maybe, they are just more competent and their secret operations stay more secret

Big one was stop correcting all non-logical parroting and not complaining when people put carton, pet or paper into the normal waste instead of correct recycling bin next to it…

PostmarkedOS is a bit frustrating as it makes you jumping through many hoops if you want to install anything not 100% FoSS (due to alpine base)

I personally think arch and mobian are the best options right now, using the phosh UI (I like gnome-mobile as well, but it is not as mobile friendly as phosh)

Now to the hardware part, you have basically two options:

1. Use a phone where most drivers are in the mainline kernel, but with bad performance due to weak SoC (e.g. pine phone pro)
2. Use a phone with strong(er) SoC but relay on custom kernel from the phone brand, locking you in place of the version of the kernel they modified (e.g. oneplus 6, I think)

At least this is how I remember it

When we come to App support; you mostly have to rely on webApps for proprietary services like train ticket, uber, etc.

For massages, I would recommend a Matrix server and the various bridges to third party messaging services that exist for it (be aware that some services consider a connection via bridge as incompatible with their ToS and may block you)

For me, it was access to “free” Medikinet (paid by mandatory health insurance)

But it seems like it is not widely offered by public instances…

Edit: seems to be planned for 1.0 release (major update after 0.19 if I understood that correctly)

Ok?

“right to root” would prevent so much eWaste.
I would love a variant that is like, if you stop delivering security and minor fixes/backports to a device, you have to give access to root or better even to the bootloader.
