Some of us already have a lifetime subscription, why move to Jellyfin? I'd have to set it up and tell all the consumers of my server to move apps, and not all of them are tech literate. It would take a lot of enshittification to force

That's cool but who is going to pay the upfront cost for the heat pumps? The sources I could find say we currently have 412 heat pumps per 100k people in the UK. Ordinary people can't just afford to drop 10k for a heat pump + inst

Is gas expensive though? It's like 6p per kWh at the moment with electricity about 25p per kWh for consumers. I think gas is dirt cheap, heating your home and hot water with electricity is 4x more expensive and costs hundreds a month.

Yep, archiving feature flags and deleting the dead code is usually thing number 9001 on the list of priorities, so in practice most projects end up with a graveyard of them. Another issue that I've ran into a few times, is if a feature

Even disregarding CUDA, NVidia has had like 80% of the gaming market for years without any signs of this budging any time soon. When it comes to GPUs, AMD just has the vibe of a company that basically shrugged and gave up. It's a shame

A software engineer with an LLM is still infinitely more powerful than a commoner with an LLM. The engineer can debug, guide, change approaches, and give very specific instructions if they know what needs to be done. The commoner can only h

IIRC the CC they had on hand had long expired and they never actually managed to charge me for these minuscule amounts, which is why I didn't notice it for so long.
