I don't mind paying for YouTube Premium.
  • I bought premium years ago as part of Google Music family (pre yt-music) and stuck with it, it was affordable. I am more than capable of blocking the ads over the years. Other members of my family want to use YT without ads on a myriad of devices. When the price got hiked at the start of the year I was really annoyed, and probably would have dropped the service if it were just me. However my family made it pretty clear that they did not want to jump through the hoops of blocking the ads.

  • EV sales have not fallen, cooled, slowed or slumped. Stop lying in headlines.
  • Every 5k miles, you’re intended to take it to the dealer to make sure the coolant is topped off, the wheel nuts are on tight

    I have 2 EVs (A Hyundai Kona and a BYD Seal), both don't check the battery coolant until 60,000 kilometers - either toyota doesn't trust their battery system or your dealer is taking you for a ride

  • Linux rule
  • I'm a Linux user and I cross fit. I'm terrible at it and it means I'm sore all the time, but I'm trying. I don't tell many people because I'm really struggling with it, but I want at least a small amount of physical fitness to keep up with my kids

  • Would you buy "self-hosted in a box" hardware?
  • what's your plan on teaching these people to maintain their selfhosted instances? Are you selling support? I mean you could script pulling and recreating containers, but without eyeballs on it, that stuff will die eventually.

  • School Monitoring Software Sacrifices Student Privacy for Unproven Promises of Safety.
  • I work IT in schools. There is limited surveillance tools on college owned devices. Mainly logging of web traffic. Screens can be viewed when on campus network, not reachable off campus.

    No one in our department has time to waste looking at web history or screens. Teachers don't bother to use it much either. We only look at it when directed by college executive or when I go in there at the end of term to clear the alerts.

    I'd imagine most other schools are similar, no one gives a shit what kids are doing on their devices

  • Companies that use desktop Linux
  • I Sysadmin in education here in Brisbane. Half our server stack is Linux on a Nutanix hypervisor. I do all my work from Linux, my junior admin recently moved his workstation to Fedora KDE, I use Kinoite.

    The student and staff devices are 95% Windows, manager doesn't care what we use to administer. Officially we're a "Microsoft School"

  • Elon Musk may have to sell billions in Tesla stock to rescue X
  • I figures it was a simple calculus, especially since BYD is the OEM that supplies parts for many of the other brands, especially the batteries.

    I'd rather benefit from that status than support a egotist like Musk. Besides anywhere outside America the Teslas are made in China, just like the BYDs 😆
