Many forks change the telemetry to their own servers so they won't show at all

I haven't spent much time personally in Cali, but the places I have had to rent a car from I've never had a rental car plated in the same state I'm driving/renting it from

If the hardware won't accept custom firmware without signed with a private key, I'd say that's hardware limitation

Well the data centers around me certainly don't provide their own power and water, so your point seems moot

I get your point, but believe it or not there's more email services than just Gmail

Android literally has the Linux file system, although without root only the "home" directory is accessible. But within there is a Downloads folder, Documents folder, and all the other folders you'd expect from a home directory

With root you have access to the entire linux-style system directory

Any reason not to go with vaultwarden? It is pretty feature-parity with normal Bitwarden, up to and including the emergency access stuff

Both the bubble popping and it's legitimate use cases can exist at the same time.

For example, the www bubble popped, but the Internet didn't go away

This isn't really a fair comparison imo.

There hasnt been near the confusion and drama surrounding things like codex and gemini-cli. I don't think they're all on the same pedestal right now

If there was a vs code native alternative that was parity, that might not be a case. That's apples and oranges

I literally write like the article on similar write ups, where do you think the AI's learned to write this way from.

I really don't get the AI vibes from the actual writing of it

Not a bad idea. Has the added benefit of giving a signal if the position/company has a turnover issue

I've had twice the issues with GNOME as I have with KDE or Cinnamon

I think it all really depends on the wants and workflows of the user

That's the problem I have with most DE talks though

People act like these issues are going to "stop the Linux migration" or otherwise, and then they give examples of things that most users will never do/isn't even possible on windows / mac

It feels like most people don't like some DE's just simply because it's not what they're used to, not because there is actually a problem with them

I can't see my previous comment, but feel free to ignore it, as I misread what you were saying. Apologies!

You are aware bitcoin is crypto right? You basically just said "fiat currency isnt an asset class, it's a wrapper for USD"

Sure, but the contract in place forbids these things. So the contract is literally a non-performer and cannot perform such orders in the way it is written. So, I personally struggle to see outside of taking over the supply chain how Anthropics contract forces them to do this
