The app ecosystem argument is totally valid, yeah. Paying to get access to that makes sense if you and the people you are sharing with benefit from that. I guess I view the server-side as mostly fungible, because me and all the people I sha

Honest question, I haven't looked in a while - what does Plex offer over Jellyfin that would make it worth a monthly payment, or even $250-$750 one-time? When I ran the calculus a few years ago I came up empty.

I just replaced a T530 with a T14 gen 1 (R7 pro), and…yes. Super happy with the upgrade, for less than $300 mind you, even though I still love the old thickpad. It will live out its years in the rack, taking up an impressive amount of 1U.

Exactly this! After ~3 years I rarely receive an email with the Gmail tag now that all contacts/services have been switched over (or unsubscribed). Fastmail is easily my most valued paid service, and yet I never have to think about it.

why assume the billing model is being imposed by the customer rather than the service provider?

could it be that game mode is attempting to run the game in compat mode even though you are running the native build?

The incentive seems very thin/weak. Pay extra now to push DP adoption and hope that in ~10-15 years you can drop the HDMI port? Meanwhile you still pay the cartel, and they invest your money directly against your interests. And it all

or just keenly aware of their own strengths, weaknesses, and time budget for this? the leap to “over scoping” is wild.

I think they mean something like (or what I think of as) “RPC calls, but with the flexibility to select a granular subset of the result based on one or more schemas”. This is how I’ve used graphql in the past at least.

MCP is a Protocol. The server and the clients are just that. It truly is a rebranding of “API” seemingly just because it’s for a specific purpose. Not that there’s anything wrong with that… call it whatever. But I don’t understand the need

Is actuating the fuel cutoff switches something that is done routinely in these aircraft, to the extent it could reasonably become muscle memory? ETA: downthread it is mentioned that these switches are used on the ground to cut the engines
