Problem is when you procrastinate because manually importing transactions and correcting them is just annoying enough to make it a hassle. Then the transaction batch gets too large and you can't remember details anymore so you give up and don't track your budget at all.

That's been my experience in the past at least.

It's more complicated than just a spreadsheet but not as complicated as regular programming. You will want to learn general accounting practices like double entry bookkeeping to really understand how to use it though.

Seems to me that anything beyond the actual hosting and serving of the video file is unnecessary to include by default in a federated video streaming solution…

You are basically saying "Other than the most expensive and complicated parts" the rest is easy or unnecessary. Which isn't necessarily accurate but still is being a bit dismissive of the problems at hand.

And one of the biggest criticisms of Peertube (aside from the dearth of content, which helpfully avoids the "expensive/complicated" parts) has been Discoverability. How do people watch your videos (or your playlist) if they don't have a way of knowing that your videos even exist?

What information in the leaks do you think prove how dangerous Microsoft is?

No one is really posting content to any of the alternatives really. Maybe if you are really into crypto-hype or other very niche topics, there will be a little content. But not much.

To be honest, I never use Wordpad.

Either I just need to edit something quick, where Notepad excels, or in going to use just about any other option for text editor or word processor.

It’s surprising to see how much attention this is getting. And I can’t help but think how many people commenting about it actually use it to any real degree.

WEI prevents ecosystem lock-in through hold-backs
We had proposed a hold-back to prevent lock-in at the platform level. Essentially, some percentage of the time, say 5% or 10%, the WEI attestation would intentionally be omitted, and would look the same as if the user opted-out of WEI or the device is not supported.

This is designed to prevent WEI from becoming “DRM for the web”.

At least this acknowledges that this proposal would in fact be “DRM for the web” if the only thing from preventing it from being that is an additional measure unrelated to the core implementation.

Not to mention, what prevents a future release of the feature either turning the percentage to 0% or removing the hold-back entirely?

I don’t see the value in complaining about things that haven’t happened yet.

Still better than cable ever was. No long term contracts, extra fees on bills, tons of useless channels and tons of ads.

I think people forget how bad cable TV actually is if they haven’t used it for a while.

If you are going to use a VPN, just use Mullvad. I’m not aware of a better I’ve, and I definitely wouldn’t trust a free one.

I haven’t seen anything that sounded like good news regarding biofuels in years. Issues with inability to scale while keeping costs reasonable as well as it still generating lots of pollution.

Have to remember to change the results from “related” to “answers” to make sure you aren’t seeing completely unrelated comments.

It’s more the core of how Discord works then anything. The fact that it’s hard for knowledge to persist, leading to channels just being people asking the same questions over and over.

And it’s not really indexable or searchable, so even if people are trying to provide good information, people are going to struggle to find it.

Even the happy scenario sounds pretty bleak, where people in skilled positions are replaced by existing workers who are supported by AI to take on additional work that used to be done by more skilled workers.

Thus you end up with a race to the bottom as workers become easily replaceable cogs that are just baby-sitting the AI tools that are doing the hard work.

Just in case anyone tries to proclaim this was due to the recent drama, the latest valuation was May 31st, before the vast majority of the recent API stuff went down, and that was only a smaller portion of the larger valuation drop that happened earlier.

…I trust the privacy guarantees even more since I’m a paying customer.

How effective is this stance? While using a service for free basically guarantees there are privacy concerns, paying doesn’t directly provide any assurances. They can both charge you money and sell your data.

But Kagi seems pretty expensive, and too reliant on Bing/Google search pricing to be a long-term solution.

But after raising its SoftBank-led $170 million Series C round at a $1.17 billion valuation, the company’s internal troubles became more obvious.

I feel like every time I read one of these stories, there is a note about a huge investment from SoftBank.

Did nobody read the article?

Doesn’t sound like it. Some people even admitted that straight up.

I don’t see anywhere they are saying that they are getting rid of installed Windows, just providing a different avenue of Windows usage, something to compete with the ChromeOS type of uasge.

“Further than that” meaning banning links in general?

But they can still get news from Facebook, they just won’t be getting it from “news outlets” specifically.
