I wonder if that is something new in 25H2 then. My computer also does not have working network drivers out of the box and when I installed 24H2, it just gave me a screen to install the network driver from a flash drive. There was no way to

This is what people defending this are overlooking. While it may still be technically possible to sideload apps, the additional barriers to entry will be enough to push at least some app developers away from Android development. So while it

I agree. Apple needs to either shrink the notch or add Face ID. I was surprised Face ID was not included initially with the notch, but figured there was a last minute problem or something. But here we are several revisions later, and still

Yes, Tailscale uses Wireguard. If you can use Wireguard, that is great. That is not an option for many people who are behind a CGNAT and/or do not have the ability to setup port forwarding. Tailscale also makes it easier for sharing ac

Tailscale is a great place to start. It uses a VPN to access your servers while outside of your LAN while avoiding the security risk of them being wide open to the internet.

I also switched to self-hosted Wallabag. I won’t have to worry about the service deciding to shutdown again.

This is just an interface for a Linux distribution. You would still need a computer plugged into the TV to run it on. I use a Beelink mini PC with mine, but I have not tried this interface yet.

I am using Fedora Kinoite since I mostly just use Firefox on my TV, so the limitations of an atomic distribution are not relevant for my use case.

This is great news. I am currently using regular Plasma on a mini pc with my TV, but it would be great having an optimized interface. That being said, without apps also being optimized, it would not be that significant of an improvement.

Ubuntu pushes Snap. Flatpak is the open platform that nearly every other distribution uses.

Audiobookshelf is amazing and one of my favorite self-hosted services. Libro.fm and Downpour are great places to purchase DRM-free audiobooks. They also both have a subscription credit option similar to that of Audible.

Many Chromium-based browsers will keep Manifest v2 support for a while. But eventually the upstream Chromium codebase will diverge enough that it becomes too much work to keep it and they will be forced to drop it as well.

Instead, they create a Terms of Use giving them rights to your data and remove the promise not to sell personal data. I love Firefox, but Mozilla either does not understand their users or just loves shooting themselves in the foot. Every ti

Just a reminder that extensions can be used to fingerprint your browser, so installing this makes you more unique and easier to track. It is recommended to keep browser extensions to a minimum. uBlock Origin, as well as many other ad blocke

It is great to see that they even trained it on open datasets. More AI models need to do this, especially if they market themselves as open.

Broken upgrades were one of the biggest reasons I stopped using Ubuntu as well. Granted this was around 10 years ago, but this post suggests things have not improved in that regard.

It is very reassuring that one of the only things both sides can agree on now is that giant mega-corporations need more tax-payer money.
