+1 for Audiobookshelf, truly one of the most functional and polished apps I self-host, despite being relatively niche.

Yes, but only to use the official Bitwarden server. The Vaultwarden project is an alternate server implementation that does not require a license key.

No, a personal license comes with 3 years of updates, after which it continues to be usable without updates. > Individual licenses are valid for 3 years of updates, but do not expire after 3 years. Only if you wish to use newer versions

+1 for Sublime Merge, I use it every day and love it. Also seems to be one of the few git clients with Linux support, surprisingly.

You aren't required to use a real estate agent though (at least in my jurisdiction).

Are there actually any licenses which do not permit training an AI model on the code?

Postpartum depression is a real thing and very common. I believe it's more of a hormonal response and less about a lack of attention, though

Sure it's click-bait, but people were actually taking livestock versions of Ivermectin, in paste form. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/health/2021/08/23/covid-...

Nitpick: the Geocities era peaked well before jQuery was created in 2006. By that point Geocities was already in decline and would be shutdown only 3 years later.

My family just got into Minecraft so we started with Microsoft accounts. They worked fine in the Java launcher, on Linux, Windows, and Mac Os. We've since moved to MultiMC as others have mentioned.

If you complete your degree and declare bankruptcy, you still get to keep your education. So what's to keep every student from going to college, getting a diploma, discharging their debt, then getting a job? I'm not pro-student d

It's just a combination of being in the right place at the right time, knowing the right people, and making a good impression. There are a lot of people in the world, some of them are going to fall upwards. The real question is whethe

IMHO the issue is that society tells couples that 1 is the ideal outcome, creating plenty of 2s who believe they will eventually become 1s if they just keep trying. Some of those couples might be happier as 3s. I believe both 1 and 3 are p

Even if you believe the FDA's decision making has been clouded with all the factors in the parent comment, the idea that the average individual could do a better job determining a vaccine schedule is unrealistic. The vast majority of p

Perhaps for now, but if Proton raises the Linux gaming market share, companies in the future may be more likely to invest resources into native clients.

Sure, but only because it highlights how little support society gives to the homeless.

I think it's just the inevitable direction of a few trends. Technology is increasingly being adopted in schools, e.g. Chromebooks in classrooms, online and hybrid learning, submitting homework via the web, etc. At the same time, kids

I'm guessing they view releasing an official calculator app as a move towards eventually replacing the hardware calculator. It could help legitimize a cell phone calculator to schools and exam boards. I'm also guessing their prod

Swappable batteries aren't viable without a new business model. If you buy an EV today, it comes with a battery with a ~10 year warranty, and replacing that battery after the warranty ends is a pretty expensive affair. Nobody with a ne

Basically it comes down to the seat position relative to the road. Many people like having a higher position and midsize SUVs/crossovers provide that. Whether or not it's actually safer or provides more visibility, some people p

As a cyclist, I'd actually be more concerned about sharing the bike lane with a person on a scooter. Presumably an autonomous pizza delivery vehicle would act more predictably.

The average price of a new car in the US is now over $40,000[1]. My theory is that the rise of EVs will coincide with a rise in pricing for all vehicles. Instead of EVs getting cheaper, ICE cars will get more expensive. [1] https:/&#

Another +1 for Sublime Merge. I use it every day and it's incredibly well-designed and built.

You don't have to actually allocate a house for it to be a universal benefit. All you need is a process for one to apply for a flat in the municipality in which they want to live, and the government provides one.
