And not even a remotely creative statement. 🙄

Last I checked they haven’t yet added user-facing controls to configure this yet. I don’t know where it is on the priority list.

I have been using nothing but Linux for the last decade (literally, Arch for years and now Nix) and I’m increasingly growing to hate how so many OSS communities are bordering on zealotry.

I’ve completely unsubbed from most Android communities now too because they’re all such toxic, hostile places to be if you have the sheer audacity to use anything proprietary or closed source.

I’ve been around this block. I’ve been both using and contributing to open source projects, some small, some large. I’m proud of what open source developers have achieved and am humbled by most of them. But the users…the users are starting to get really annoying.

Congrats on not reading the post at all and writing something that literally has nothing to do with this thread.

It takes a special level of determination to be so completely clueless.

Do you believe that on a social platform like this, democracy is the best policy when it comes to what is shown and what is not?

Ah, the Internet equivalent of “I know you are but what am I?”…

“this thing that doesn’t affect me at all annoys me and shouldn’t be visible”

There’s other people here who like the transparency. Literally all you have to do is keep scrolling…

Driving a Leaf 100km a day does not mean that the battery has a range of 100km or more. It is extremely common to charge whenever you park, whether at work or when stopping at home or any time in between drives. With a charge in the middle of the day, even a car with a max range of 50km could still do 100km in one day.

The point he’s making is not about range, it’s about the longevity and the reliability of the car.

Easy to set up, mine is working great.

It’s accessing literally anything you self host from home, with minimal latency and without any port forwarding on your router or exposing your services to the Internet.

It’s primary benefit is how fast it is, how much easier it is to set up for even the most novice of users, and how ubiquitous all the clients are.

Plus it’s free for 100 endpoints, which is far more than most individuals will need for home labs. And even that you can get around by using subnet routing.

If you’ve ever wanted to run your own sort of Dropbox or Google docs (Syncthing/Next cloud) but didn’t want to deal with the security hassle of exposing it to the Internet, this removes that completely. No more struggling with open ports, fail2ban, or messing with reverse proxies.

No offense, but saying this almost completely disqualifies you from having this conversation about private messengers.

This is one of the coolest features I’ve seen before. Direct linking to settings!! Super cool.

Ludicrously simple setup, that’s all.

There is something odd about the fonts used for Thunder. Maybe the spacing between the letters, I don’t know exactly.

This is not remotely ghetto, this is really well done. Sure the fans are a bit wonky but that is one hell of a machine for the money.

Well done!

I trust them to run the compiled binary code they provide, why wouldn’t I trust them to do the right thing with telemetry to actually improve the experience?

You can literally see the metrics schema and what is being collected, it’s not some proprietary sneak on your system secretly phoning home. If it gives them actual information on problems, allows them to correlate issues with environment, cause and effect, UX heatmaps to improve common actions, why wouldn’t I want that?

I can be privacy-minded, but also not have the binary black and white opinion that all telemetry is bad and evil. I’ve almost never reported bugs directly to a distro, it’s just not something I have the time or patience for. But in the absence of that as my contribution, my telemetry is likely to help at least paint a picture for developers on where to start with fixing issues, and I think that’s just fine.

Plus, I can just opt out at any time. And I have zero issues trusting Fedora that when I say “opt out” it will actually opt out and not try to do some funny business.

Oh I see.

I guess I’ll wait with baited breath for when you’re ready to hold people to that standard. I suppose until then you won’t understand why this is just embarrassing for Musk.

That’s the point of Twitter for users…“haha”.

The people running Twitter should act like professionals. If I was Mr Beast, I sure as hell would not even reply to such a tweet.

Seriously…what a weird take. High resolution video is simply just nicer to watch, these guys are going a very strange direction with it.

“consumerism”? My dude, it’s pre produced video files. With hardware acceleration it takes barely any real processing power to play back 4k video.

You are not changing anything or making any difference in whether the world is “going to shit”. The Internet bandwidth you’re getting is being artificially choked by your ISP…always.

It feels like you think it’s some kind of moral victory and wanted to take some kind of arbitrary stand against “consumerism” and landed here.

Unless you actually have bandwidth limitations or don’t have a screen capable of displaying the content, lowering to DVD quality is achieving nothing at all.
