I disabled ipv6 long ago and never moved. Not even blinked.

Never been in an electric car which couldn’t do this by itself. Tesla, BMW, Polestar: all had this functionality built-in.

I don’t know what the situation stateside is but here in the EU this is standard EV functionality.

Name one company which does. There aren’t. Every corporation is big, cumbersome and full of people who make mistakes and don’t follow procedures.

So… What your telling us is that it’s bad. Not good.

because incompatible. It won’t work on any device. Except those of that cult. That cult whose leader killed himself after magically getting a a new liver somewhere in Asia.

You know, donor organs for which there are waiting lists of months and months.

Which was totally not weird and surely 100% legal and all. Just fine.

You know what really abouts the flying f out of me?

Even if I start with something quite heavy like system of a down, ace of spades or whatever it always ends up after half an hour with ballads, soft rock and what have you. Elevator music.

Why. Why? Wasn’t I clear ? I want metal. And lots of it. That’s what i started with. Not muzak. Stay with the genre. Not jump them.

The question, the problem with crypto, is not how, it’s why?

It isn’t about if we can or cannot. It’s about the usecase of it all.

For now, the only use case crypto has is wel… Betting. It’s hard to call it anything else like speculation.

You would be out of your mind to use it as a currency. The worth of crypto is too volatile. Even black market usage is problematic due to this. (did i just buy a pound of coke for 50k or 100k? Who knows? I guess we see tomorrow)

It also is too slow to use as a currency; the transaction times are off the charts compared to other forms.

It also is the most wasteful form for storing wealth.

It’s also the most risky way for storing wealth. The amount of hacks and scams are insane.

It, in its current form will never be a legal tender. Currency is about control for governments, to devalue or not, to prop up the economy, boosting it or easing it down when needed and crypto doesn’t provide that. So to use that wealth you’ll always need an exchange. A third party. Which, recent history has thought us, are very prone to abuse and regulation. they can be banned overnight. (China comes to mind)

It’s a solution. The question is for what. The popularity of it all is based on 2 things : greed and the fear of missing out. (which again boils down to greed)

(chuckles)

What hamas did, what started this war, was absolutely unforgivable, horrendous and barbaric. It’s impossible to support that organisation in any way anymore.

What Israel did which led to this over the last 10 years was stupid and very discriminatory. The amount of violence against the palistinian people during the last decade is well documented and inexcusable. Which could only lead to a violent reaction. (illegal settlements, violence against palistinians, discrimination, withholding electricity and water)

The rise to (political) power of hamas was a, self defeating victory. It made the position of the palistinian people worse, not better.

The return of Netanyahu, a convicted criminal if im not mistaken is baffling and unexplainable to any outsider.

The position of the west in this whole mess should at least raise an eye brow of the voters of our democracies.

Israels reaction to hamas’ horrific action is completely out of proportion and the attack on the hospital was very wrong in every way. The amount of “weapons” found there means nothing in a war zone. It’s quite possible that the weapons shown are personal sidearms of wounded palistinian fighters dropped off at the hospital.

The Israeli involvement in Syria seems to be aimed at kicking syria while its down so it stays down. This helps current Israeli military security but it’s very short sighted.

Israeli mossad actions (killings of scientist etc.) abroad (iran, etc.) while understandable from a military standpoint do not further the Israeli cause. Short term it increased Israeli military security but long term it has great repercussions. It eroded the trustworthiness of Israel to SA levels.

Israel is on the stupid path for at least the last decade. Ditto Hamas. Hamas especially should be smarter since they’re clearly the less powerful of the two. Israel should be much smarter then this looking at the history of the Jewish people and their state.

To me it seems nobody really red and understood the koran, the tanakh or the teachings of christ in whichever form.

But they do use those as an excuse to kill each other. Which is weird.

So… Putting this all together I can say nothing. Looking at it from western Europe i see a gigantic mess which can only end in tears and genocide. Nobody is willing to give in, so blood will continue to flow. Until there is none left.

What I can say is: Pax Americana and the European stability will end, somewhere in the next century. While unfortunately for me personally as a European there are very clear markers all around us (if you want to see them, that is) that the current stability/status quo which exist since ww2 will not last.

Israel should take that into account. Plan for a viable future without american and European support. I don’t see that. I only see very short term reactionary policies.

I dare to say 0.01%. Most devs, including open source devs are payed one way or another.

Sure, there are labours of love. But most aren’t.

It’s the least watched service in my household. It’s only still in our streaming subscriptions because of the low, very low price I’ve got in the first few weeks when t It was introduced here in NL.

I find the new “max” content bad. It’s not at the same level as the HBO series. My family just doesn’t bother with it.

The moment the new pricing and rebranding comes over here wil Probably be the moment I cancel.

House of dragons and the last of us is not enough to keep paying monthly.

Our household watches netflix, prime, youtube, disney+, skyshowtime (paramount) and lastly max.

This is a weird take. Just because someone is (or has been) successful he can’t speak about or for socialism?

You can’t be successful and a socialist? Is that it? That’s a very narrow and simply wrong view which has resulted in a lot of damage in societies which adopted it.

Socialism needs succes stories. Otherwise, what’s the point? Mediocrity for all? That will never fly or become popular.

I bought the Nokia 8010 TV box instead of the shield. I do not know if it’s available in your country. Why? Cheaper and same ish enough.

I like it but “like” is all there is. I do not love it. As most android boxes it is not 100% stable and needs a reboot after a week or so.

I red in several forums the nvidia shield has the same problem.

Tbh the appletv is the wise choice. Stable, more apps, better ecosystem, better soc, more storage. Plex also works on it.

I couldn’t use it unfortunately because my Atmos setup is not arc 2.0 and the appletv only does uncompressed atmos. With arc 1.x it’s only possible to send atmos compressed over dolby digital plus.
