People aren’t just objecting to the quality of the software, and even more than objecting to the relentless commercialization at every opportunity in the ‘smart’ features, they are rightfully worked up about the firehose of surveillance telemetry these devices are feeding back to the manufacturers.

So slightly better ping than my ISP, then.

Ah, someone should correct that article then.

TL;DR:

Njalla (Swedish pronunciation: [ˈnjala]) is an anonymous domain name registrar, hosting provider and VPN provider, established by The Pirate Bay co-founder Peter Sunde.

Hm now I wonder what to do about that, as they have had my number for a while now.

You may have missed the sarcasm.

Yep it’s more work upgrading components than people like to admit, if you want to be frugal.

Um, an Englishman coming here, pretending to be O.G., while taking advantage of a much younger indigenous woman? That is, historically, not a bad metaphor for Canada. Photo is Archibald Belaney, stage name Grey Owl, and the beaver was a pet because his young girlfriend didn’t like how he ran his trapline.

Immich FTW

groak is your password too?

I know that there are some complicated configurations that you could use to get the audio feed from display port to your receiver, like running it through a splitter that will strip out the audio and send it to your receiver separately. I’m pretty sure there are no mainstream AV receivers that will do what you want because the market is split between home theatre and PC, as mentioned elsewhere in this thread, and manufacturers need to be convinced there’s a market for it. In that situation, I would connect the output device, in this case a PC, directly to the TV/monitor with DP, and run optical audio from either the TV or the output device to receiver. You lose some of the integrated control that HDMI-CEC gives you, so get a good universal remote that can adapt to this set up and get one-button source switching back.

Al is a pretty good guy but he can’t be everywhere. Maybe he can use some A.I. to help!

Yes, and that’s exactly what everyone forgets about automating cognitive work. Knowledge needs to be intergenerational or we lose it. If you have no junior developers, who will turn into senior developers later on?

Hyperbole, I think.
