Makes me sad, this was a great museum.

Agreed!

Wish that this somehow translated to the people in charge of the shitshow being replaced, but I’m pretty sure it’s the workers who will suffer instead. This failure is 1000% on an executive culture of “cut corners so line goes up”, not the thousands of people who actually build the darn things.

Do you want ants? Cause this is how we get ants.

Is there a movie coming? They seemed pretty wrapped to me.

Jellyfin is such a great piece of software and I’m so glad the main project has the funds they need. I follow one of the lead android tv app developers and I’ll absolutely plug him as a great place to send some donations. These people do enterprise grade work as a hobby and absolutely deserve a few of our dollars.

I really like Manjaro. I’ve been running it on my personal computer for many years now, however, I would not recommend it for grandma’s computer. Their “delayed and curated” release strategy mostly just works but when it doesn’t it doesn’t. As someone mentioned elsewhere in the comments I would lean towards Red Hat or Debian for more mindless distros. I’ve administered thousands of Debian package updates and distro upgrades and it’s so stable. We don’t deserve Debian.

I certainly did not get it until you said the thing

When our first child arrived I had a cheap IP cam lying around that I could flash with something I trusted and integrate into my other stuff (Homeassistant in this case). The camera didn’t really support a wired connection, only 2.4 wifi. This has probably been my single complaint about the setup generally. We live in a somewhat dense neighborhood and the surrounding 2.4GHz noise affects the stream quality, making it somewhat less reliable.

I would say that if reliability and complexity are your biggest concerns go with one of the decent baby monitors. Very reliable, zero complexity. We didn’t find the reliability to be an issue in practice and I didn’t mind the complexity. I would say that if you go the IP cam route, do your best to go wired or at least 5GHz.

it’s an apex predator at this point

Always nice to see some good news.

Not really hating on valve as they have done an enormous amount of good for pc gaming but yeah, it is deeply frustrating how slowly they roll out fixes. For a ~$700,000,000 a year company they are incredibly slow at publishing fixes and necessary updates to just their core software. It’s all kinds of ridiculous that with a budget like that they are still lagging behind open source projects like moonlight/sunshine.

I am too old to tell if this is good photoshop, good generative ai, or a real photo . 🫠

Gotta say, officially bummed. I somehow doubt this change will improve their offerings.

Thanks for the recommendation! I’ll check it out.

Legit, used Wayland for a whole two hours before realizing barrier wouldn’t work and had to drop back to x. Workflow gotta workflow.

When you’re right you’re right
