Should the USPS/AusPost/your local postal service be allowed to cut off a household's postal service because someone received pirated CDs in the mail? That's essentially the same thing. If anything, internet access is more important than mail these days.

Unfortunately it looks like that one is for Apple devices, whereas I use Linux on desktop and Android on mobile.

There's some, but I haven't seen any that have the main features Plex and Plexamp have:

  • Cross-fading when playing random tracks, but gapless playback when playing an album in order
  • Analysis of the music using a local neutral network, such that you can tell it to play play "similar" sounding songs to the current one
  • Automatic playlists - liked songs, decades, etc
  • Downloads for offline playback
  • Multiple libraries, for example I keep regular music separate from DJ mixes
  • Equalizer with presets for common headphones

And probably other things I'm forgetting.

Thankfully CGNAT isn't as common in the USA as it is in other countries. In the US, ISPs generally either offer native IPv4 (most of the major ones), or only use IPv6 and provide IPv4 at all. The latter is the case with a lot of the mobile carriers, especially T-Mobile. Your phone only gets an IPv6 address, and their network uses 464XLAT to connect to legacy IPv4-only servers.

Do you have a CVE for this?

Plex still has the most fully-featured music streaming app (Plexamp)

Prices rarely, if ever, go down in a meaningful degree.

In 2011, there was a large flood in Thailand that impacted ~40% of hard drive manufacturing. As a result, hard drives significantly increased in price. This was back when SSDs weren't mainstream yet.

A year or two later, when manufacturing capacity was restored, prices were essentially back to what they were before the disruption.

Apart from disruptions like that, HDDs, SSDs, and RAM have always been going down in price.

California is doing this too, so "world's first" also confused me. The California version requires Doordash, Uber Eats, etc to pay 120% of the minimum wage for each hour the driver is working (from when they accept an order to when it's delivered, excluding waiting time), plus 35 cents per mile for miles driven during deliveries.

Hmm, it's missing the Docker repo. Check in /etc/apt/sources.list.d and see if there's even a file for it.

Just net send everyone a message saying that if they have issues, they need to reboot.

(is net send still a thing?)

They're probably trying to write it in a way that non-Rust-developers can understand.

I'd connect vis SSH and manually inspect the files that it's supposed to be creating. Does apt update show any errors?

Companies that build large LLMs have already said that this is becoming a problem. They're running out of high-quality human-written content to train their models.

Google paid Reddit to get access to their data to train their models, which is probably why their AI can be a bit dumb at times (and of course, the users that actually contributed the content don't get any of that money)
