  1. If there is two different program with same functionality where one of them is free to use it must be piracy? If sideloading on iPhone was a thing I might actually buy one next time. But if I change today I would loose a lot of functionality on my headset, I would be forced to start using the remote controller to my TV and stop flying my drones. This are just a few quick things I know of right now. I also _think_ there is some problem with remote connect to wifi storage to directly/live save drone footage to drive. This might have been fixed since last time I checked. So yes there is a lot of examples where normal users would benefit from sideloading without being pirates.
  2. Pleas just stay away from endorsing any VPN! It's a privacy product and there is no way you can guarantee with 100% certainty that the company in question not keeping logs, etc etc. If it was a HDMI cable, shoes, a clock, ..... Well demand new product or refund. With a VPN it can actually mean prison or even worse for the ones that trust your recommendation.
  3. Not much, they avoid taxes and hardly any employees. Most companied hat little or no interaction with Facebook anymore. LinkedIIn have been growing a lot lately, everyone have moved there, even for private stuff you use to do on FaceBook.
  4. First of all a lot of ISP have that service for free, at least where I live. Secondly there is a lot of firewalls with that auto-update block lists so it's not hard to use. Is skipping ads morally wrong? Perhaps, that is up the individual user. But it's not illegal! Not only have courts said so but ISP would not implement free services that was illegal. EU are actually looking at the sites that tries to bypass adblockers, this might actually be illegal to read what software I have installed on my computer without my consent.
  5. Even worse is that Linus kind of hypocrite. When he speaks about the media he is active in, video, it's piracy but once it's ads on a website he more or less advocate the use of blockers. For me this cuts both ways, you can't single out one media over another like that.
  6. Question is when will we see LTT video making custom cooling for this laptop?
  7. NFT will surly die out in a few years, at least in EU. NFT are now (since November 2021) included in MiCA (Market in Crypto-Assets), new law that EU are adopting in 2023.
  8. I'm surprised not both was against it more. I'm also surprised that the Steam and Sony collaboration was not brought up.
  9. And one of the REALLY good advantages to run it on Linus is that you can connect multiple peripherals so you can actually use the same computer.
  10. Why did you not do this on Linux? Not only have you been able to do this for several years the installation are much easier.
  11. Same thing happens with new versions of Windows. First most really hate the new features but once they get use to them they love them. Same thing here but in a larger scale. I'm actually somewhat disappointed on Linus due to this, he should be able to look to the next step. On the other hand might Linus not be a great candidate for this kind of test due to his heave dispossession vs Windows.
  12. Öppna skolplattformen is NOT Open Source and that was/is part of the legal problems. The company behind Öppna Skolplattformen, Not Free Beer AB (Yes that is the actual name) claim they own the source code and since its reversed engendered there is question if they own the right and therefore can sell the app. Anyhow the issue are much more complex then the original article claims.
  13. Users within EU have, according to Article 20 GDPR the right to data: You can demand any organisation or company to reveal all data they have collected about you. Few coworkers contacted FaceBook and their their data en was actually fun to read. Also remember you have the right to be forgotten so you can have all the data deleted. You can read more here: https://gdpr-info.eu/art-20-gdpr/
  14. Steam got it's store 2005 two years after it started. Steam had a lot of problems with crashing and demeaning internet access even for single player games at a time less then 20% of US had access to broadband internet. It was simply a glorified RDM in the beginning, really disliked one at that. In 2008 Steam only had 183 new releases, that is 5 years after it opened. Today Steam are mostly a good user experience but do not forget they had a really hard time in the beginning. Some of the problem are quite similar to what EGS have now, not enough game developers on the platform.
