    I don't even consider it an option anymore. I just turn to other software that sends the original file to me. It would be great to have Plex transcode my high res movies on the fly…

    An even easier fit would be comic books. They already let you steam libraries of photos. I have never used that feature, but I would definitely stream some comics. Also, they could…

    If this goes through, I wouldn't be surprised if facial recognition ends up being the "solution" to the problems this creates. I walked to get a sandwich today and I counted no les…

    That reminds me of a vending machine ran into as a little kid. It was in a private place and it had an out of order sign posted. Being hungry and young, I plugged it back in so I c…

    My story is even simpler. I have a friend who wanted to upgrade to Windows 11 because 10 is losing support. I wrote the Windows 11 installer to my flash drive using Rufus. It worke…

    I 100% agree. My parents were both disabled. A malpractice lawsuit left us with a little windfall. My parents saw where the future was going and bought me my first computer. Being …

    If I find myself writing code in a way that has me saying to myself "there has to be a better way," there usually is. That's when I could present AI with that little bit of what I …

    He has said that wind turbines cause cancer. He also said they make noise that bothers people and drives whales insane. He has also said that they kill birds, as if their spinning …

    I would use "saccharine" or "Pollyanna" based on some of the responses I get. Early on, ChatGPT could be tricked into being sarcastic and using many swear words. I rewrote the prom…

    Then Microsoft can do the exact opposite sometimes. The drive cleanup option used alright, but then I noticed that it now wants to clear the Downloads library. I don't know about e…

    I'm on Android 14 and I've been pretty happy with an app called Insular on F-Droid or Island on the Play Store. It let's you install as many instances of an app as you'd like and t…
