It's relatively inexpensive and makes life much easier for people who are not tech savvy. Your position is that of an incredibly egoistic person that never had to help an older relative or dealt with an adult who doesn't have time for random bs during an hour or so of downtime most people get in a day.

If spending hours trying to figure out which "free" streaming service had not gotten shot down today and magically has the content you want is worth less to you than a one time payment of a few bucks to plex, then you really don't value your time.

Red light cameras are fine as long as they work properly, but fuck the speed cams. Glad they are still illegal here.

Also zypper is a fantastic package manager.

Super relevant argument that ccp allows some companies to grow before they take over. And yes, obviously nobody would do business in China if they didn't share the profits. Hopefully nobody will ever do business again with a shithole like russia.

Except Nvidia is the third largest company in the world with a ton of existing IP that they would effectively be handing over to a country that has a history of stealing IP without any repercussions and had the resources to take advantage of that IP and make Nvidia irrelevant.

Right, for profit companies famously have a history of just handing themselves over to totalitarian regimes.

China has no successful companies that aren't approved, controlled and often subsidized by the party.

Bigger problem than tmsc is that China will just "legitimately" steal all IP and replace them with another company within a year. Moving to China is insane if you don't plan to bend over for the party.

As an unfortunate owner of a Chrysler and having owned and driven a ton of other cars I can confidently say Stellantis makes the shittiest cars you can buy in US. On screen ads are just a small piece of an immense garbage island that is this shitty company.

Sensors are cheap and have been around for a long time, but I'm going to guess the number one reason is the small part. Fewer cars = less traffic.

I've actually watched a city I visit regularly grow over about 20 years and it went from them having zero traffic to Los Angeles style traffic jams. This is despite their best efforts like making extra wide roads, using roundabouts, etc.

So you stopped using an iPhone too? Because Apple also renamed the gulf in their maps app.

Is Symbian still good these days?

Master pdf editor works great for me. License costs $80, but compared to Adobe prices it is basically free.

Show me a screenshot of what your display settings look like please.

 
# sudo btrfs fi df /mnt/disk3
Data, single: total=12.70TiB, used=12.27TiB
System, DUP: total=8.00MiB, used=1.34MiB
Metadata, DUP: total=15.00GiB, used=14.50GiB
GlobalReserve, single: total=512.00MiB, used=608.00KiB

# mkdir /mnt/disk3/tst
mkdir: cannot create directory ‘tst’: No space left on device

I suspect this is BTRFS balancing issue, but even BTRFS's own utility is indicating there's still SOME space left. Certainly should be enough to create a directory.

Any ideas?

Just in general BTRFS default options for creating new volumes seem to not work well for disks that I intend to fill completely immediately after formatting. Are there better options for this use case? I just use

# mkfs.btrfs /dev/sdd1
