or where you have to pay for updates

Some people prefer paying with money over paying with personal data.

Having said that, these days the paid solutions also collect your data ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'm surprised to see that WordPress still use Trac, as I didn't realise that it's still being updated. I haven't seen it in the wild for a very long time. I used to use it for source control and bug tracking but that would have been maybe 15 years ago.

There's no enforced warranty for products in the USA (you can sell a product with no warranty at all!) but the standard for tech products is at least one year, and credit cards often provide an extra year as one of their benefits.

I'm sure it's a decent product, but only 30 days warranty?? They must not have a lot of faith in their product. That's not even legal in a lot of countries (at least the EU, Australia, New Zealand, and some Asian countries).

Nice! That's a great idea.

True - I just stuck with Google's naming for consistency.

I absolutely agree that you should be able to install anything on a device you've paid for. Unfortunately, the world's been moving away from that for years, and I'm not sure what we can do to avoid it.

The IPTV provider should provide the EPG, either as a URL or via "Xtreme Codes" (which is essentially just a base URL for an API that provides both the playlist and the EPG).

Try set up the stream directly on an IPTV app on your TV, instead of using Dispatcharr. If you have a device with Android TV (either built-in to the TV or a steaming box like the Nvidia Shield or Onn one), try Tivimate.

The IPTV apps on non-Android platforms aren't as good. On your computer, you can try tuning in to a channel using VLC or a web UI (if your provider has one) and see if it works better.

The best IPTV providers are hidden from the public (no public website or social media presence), and you need to be invited by an existing user. Unfortunately the one I use closed signups a few years ago, otherwise I'd invite you.

You'll still be able to sideload things on Android, including from unverified developers. There's a once-off setup that makes you wait 24 hours though. https://www.theverge.com/tech/897420/android-sideloading-unverified-developers-process

And I don’t ever know if it’ll get better because you need to know why you want to build something someway.

The major issue I'm seeing with junior (and even intermediate) developers is that they trust that the AI will always do things the correct way and don't question its approach, and they don't develop proper debugging skills and just rely on the AI to attempt it.

To get decent quality output out of an AI model, you need to have critical thinking skills, at least basic knowledge of the overall architecture for whatever you're trying to build, and enough knowledge to question the model when it does something wrong.

Blindly trusting AI is why so many old security issues are coming back - stored/reflected XSS, SQL injection, exposing databases directly to the internet with no password, things like that. Newer frameworks mostly got rid of them, and now AI is bringing them back. It's a fun time for red teams at least.

It does, and the back is pretty small. I don't usually have passengers though. We use the iX when travelling with passengers.

I don't use it quite that fast, but it works very well. It has radar and ultrasonic sensors in addition to cameras, and you can only use it on routes they've mapped out (in the USA that's most of the highways), so I'd trust it more than Tesla.
