If I have no motivation to do a task, no matter how I talk to myself I probably won’t do it

If I have the motivation to do the task it doesn’t matter how I ask myself, I will do it.

Likewise if I have no motivation.

It’s free for a single user, but you pay a subscription per user for collaborative use.

I’m just a solo enthusiast so it’s free for what I’d use it for.

Edit: I guess to your earlier point perhaps this a step towards enshitification and they might well put more and more tools behind a paywall.

There are a few other options, such as Bruno.

But if you can spare the time to learn curl it’s probably the most versatile.

Oh absolutely overkill, but I have a reel of it from another project. Waste not, want not.

I have yet to make it work well enough over wifi. I am planning on running cat6 down to my tv

I went to Krakov 3 years ago, and from a UK perspective Poland was a relatively cheap travel destination.

I don’t think I made myself clear; I am relievd because I thought I was going to lose access to my apps in the next update cycle. The thought of that filled me with anxiety, but now I have more time to prepare.

I’m hoping that something like lineageOS will be unaffected and will be available for my device before Google remove sideloading altogether

Yep, it’s pretty bad, it sets a bad precedent, and has me looking for alternatives.

When it was originally announced I got the impression that Google would soon be removing the ability to sideload apps altogether and as I almost entirely use apps installed from “untrusted” sources this would have been a nightmare for me.

So while I think this whole situation is shit, and will almost certainly lead to Google removing the ability to sideload apps in the future, for me the immediate anxiety has been lifted.

It appears that the “security wait” will be a one time thing when you first allow installing from unverified sources. After enabling it it will remain on indefiniately.

Not quite as bad as I was fearing, but will kinda annoying.

As a Brit, it’s comforting to know that other countries are also sliding towards fascism. At least we won’t be alone!

Jellyfin is A-ok for the tech illiterate. I actually think it might be easier to navigate and use because it’s a bit more simple than Plex.

Today I realised my waterproof coat is no longer waterproof…

I just got back from seeing Moulin Rouge. It was quite good.

Yep

They’re not false, but they don’t show the whole picture, as one paragraph seldom can.

If you are referring the action in Runcorn, of which they are said to have “stormed, scaled, and occupied” the premises of the military equipment manufacturer at 4.30am, I wouldn’t say that counts as violence. I would say that violence is typically considered harm to a person or people, not windows and drones.

We have ‘freedom of expression’ as outlined in the 1998 Human Rights Act. The HRA says that we are free to express ourselves as we see fit so long as it is within the confines of the law.

We have relatively strong hate speech laws as outlined in the 1986 Public Order Act, which makes it an offense to “[make] threatening, abusive or insulting words or behaviours that causes, or is likely to cause, another person harassment, alarm or distress” and “language that encourages terrorism”.

Recently a non-violent pro-Palestine, activist group (Palestine Action) was prescribed as a terrorist group, making it illegal to support any of their actions.
