  • MIT Study Finds Gas Cars Aren't Secretly Better For The Planet Than EVs, Despite What Everyone On Facebook Says

  • I live in Atlanta and when I turned 21 (a couple years ago, but post 2020) I was kinda irritated because literally everything in the entire city was planned on Facebook Events, and I hated using Facebook.

    It's overwhelmingly popular, especially in the 30+ crowd, not even restricted to your 55+. Genuinely everyone would create Facebook events (before Partiful got popular) to invite people over on a Saturday

    Edit: spelling

  • MIT Study Finds Gas Cars Aren't Secretly Better For The Planet Than EVs, Despite What Everyone On Facebook Says

  • So that's not what the article was saying

  • Commodore Callback 8020: Flip phone without browser, social networks, and 5G

  • Let's not forget that it's $500 because they can't continually profit off your personal information being harvested from the software.

    Is it expensive for the hardware? Yeah Is it expensive for an android compatible device with zero telemetry? Not entirely

  • Google Chrome is killing all uBlock Origin bypasses, Microsoft Edge, Opera to follow

  • Brave is fine but still collects a lot of user data and isn't privacy centric from their own perspective. Plus their fingerprint protection sucks

  • Brave is charging $60 to remove features it added in the first place

  • I said "apparently" lol. It was still a brave referral link they got money from, so i have no doubt it wasn't a mistake

  • Brave is charging $60 to remove features it added in the first place

  • Apparently it was an auto complete issue that was fixed within 48 hours, but even still, there's always something wrong with Brave multiple times a year

  • Brave is charging $60 to remove features it added in the first place

  • Yeah, I like sync too and you can use Firefox sync with all Firefox based browsers.

    Brave's ceo also donated to California political efforts to overturn protections for gay marriage in the past

  • Brave is charging $60 to remove features it added in the first place

  • No, but brave "shields", aka pre installed but shittier unlock origin, can sometimes break plex or other sites that require certain things that could look like trackers

  • Brave is charging $60 to remove features it added in the first place

  • Zen is just preselected no telemetry Firefox, also bleeding edge with Firefox updates

    Brave is fine ish but they have issues, and a lot of them, which they usually fix within 24 hours but they've had a track record of like 8-10 issues per year, so just under once a month.

    Don't downvote me to hell cause it's a reddit link, sorry, this is the most concise list I know of: https://www.reddit.com/r/browsers/s/AErPH6iMl0

  • PewDiePie releases Codex/ClaudeCode/Cursor killer, Odysseous (FOSS)

  • Coding is okay, but the flagship free models usually crush whatever and to have decent memory you need hella VRAM Doc analysis is okay if they're small, Home assistant isn't bad but kinda overkill with an LLM when you can just set manual automations, Journalling, gaming, music, DJ'ing, elder care, imagine and video generation, are all relatively bad even on flagship models

    Quick overview of searches is fine but I'll use a free flagship model for that, in depth research tends to not be great

  • What WM or DE are you using now?

  • People tend to dislike this, but I LOVE gnome. It runs a lil heavy, but damn it's clean, smooth, fast, easy & decluttered.

    No dot files, no config, and it's intuitive

  • PewDiePie releases Codex/ClaudeCode/Cursor killer, Odysseous (FOSS)

  • Yeah essentially the other tools you had to use API keys, and none of them were FOSS, mostly paid only tools.

    This lets you self host both the application interface itself (which can also be an IDE) and use a self hosted LLM

  • PewDiePie releases Codex/ClaudeCode/Cursor killer, Odysseous (FOSS)

  • I kinda loved his "you should self host to decentralize from big tech" and "run graphene and Linux to avoid data collection" content, but idk what the local ai stuff is any good for

  • People who are staying on Plex, have you tried Jellyfin? What about it do you not prefer? (real question)

  • Tbh I just fanboy any FOSS company like that

  • MAM is just bizarre, is every private tracker like that?

  • This is the part I don't get, atp you could even ask for a subscription or payment for a well managed private tracker and I think it'd be worth it for a large number of people.

    Why are we complaining about free media again???

  • Homelab for DevOps experience?

  • Gotcha! I'll keep it surface level for most of these applications too, I presume

  • This Week in Self-Host

  • Makes sense!

  • My personal Simple Dashboard

  • You're the coolest! AND you used Ai as a quick lightweight researcher, which is what it should be used for. You're fucking AWESOME! so thanks for your contributions!!

  • This Week in Self-Host

  • that's valid, but would you rather spend $8/year on a domain and spend an hour setting it up, or pay a monthly subscription to a closed source plex server?

    Also, there's *arr stack applications for helping non-technical users get set up on your jellyfin server, even helping them get set up with request apps too. JFA-GO is also a jellyfin native option for sending user invites.
