This is just an ad for something called PrivateLINE (no relation).

We’ve got DVDFab bots here on Lemmy now?

The computer should only be for education, high morals, and bettering our humanity. Not for pornography and not for exploiting women.

4K Blu Rays encoded in H265 are usually on 100gb discs, so I can see where they’re coming from

Clearly spam. Downboat, report, move on.

A lot of EV auto makers have been arguing that the frequencies that some of the electrics in the cars run at interfere with AM radio reception.

Not sure if that’s a legitimate argument or they just don’t want to pay for extra shielding to block out the noise.

Who knows, some of them could have grown up to be Hamas fighters. Can’t be too careful when you want to clear out and pave over the Gaza strip.

SEK have done a ton of animation work for foreign firms. This is probably the only way they’re getting outsourcing work done now since all of the sanctions were put in place. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SEK_Studio

What’s your use case? Likeminded techie friends? Family members?

Signal works well as an alternative to the likes of Telegram and WhatsApp, even if it still requires a phone number and is centralised. Far easier to explain to the family instead of “oh well you can sign up on this website or this website or that website”.

Granted, if you want to host a small Matrix server just for the family, then go for it.

I run AntiX on my EeePC 701, the original with a 630mhz Celeron. Runs a treat.

I used a Hisense A5 Pro CC phone for a few months as my daily driver. For books, colour eink is okay at best but yeah, contrast sucks. It pretty much always will with the extra layers of filtering needed for each colour.

Outside of static pages of text and images, you pretty much need to drop colour depth to pretty garish levels for a decently responsive user experience. It’s a nice idea but really isn’t very good in practice.

I have a Milk-V Mars but it really isn’t performant enough for any task I have for an SBC. Distro support seems to be a pain too, as the provided Debian image isn’t meant to run on repos aside from a Debian snapshot from 2022.

I really do hope things improve. I’m planning on moving over to an RK3588 ARM board for desktop daily drivering but one day I’m hoping a decently affordable RISC V alternative will turn up.

Most of my family here in Australia use iPhones, and by extension, iMessage. Granted, they also use FB Messenger, Snapchat and all the rest, but mainly iMessage. It’s the default and it works for them.

I can assure you that this is not a thing exclusive to the US.

Probably, she uses Windows 10 at work.

I second this.

Had to fix up mum’s laptop and she wanted Windows 10 with all the Microsoft Office gubbins (she had to settle for Libreoffice). Didn’t want a word of anything Linux because “it might not work with any of my stuff”. I don’t know of a single thing she does outside of web browsing and typing up word documents.

You just can’t change some people.

There’s no money in privacy.

Harvesting and selling personal information is practically a continual source of funds with little to no cost. Why spend time and money developing a product with all the data harvesting elements stripped out to appeals to maybe 5-10% of the market?

I think they’re referring to Epic selling Bandcamp off to SongTradr which also came with a staff cull including a ton of unionised staff.
