Exciting! Looking forward to this trickling down to regular App Store installs.

The only thing Spotify has going for it is the way it’s broken down music to the atomic level and given recommendations. Cool to crib some notes there even if I think it can be a bit overbearing when Spotify does it.

Oh god. This sounds great.

I still want the “Turn off your computer before midnight” sticker someone made but, alas, CrowdStrike DMCA’d the Etsy account.

Unfortunately, yeah. AI industry has proven that it’s willing to beg for forgiveness rather than asking for permission.

Just started toying with Jellyfin for my media after Plex started being freaks about everything. I love PlexAmp though so anything that moves the needle on that is excellent. Tried some other players but currently, my setup only works in network and I’ll need to configure SSL somehow.

That is a valid, nuanced take that this article and (seemingly) the legislation don’t get into.

Of course ad-supported services are infringing on your privacy in a way but if you’re not ready to call Facebook a publicly-funded utility, it’s childish to act like it’s so essential that it should be entirely ad-free with no paid tier.

Only cause they can’t interject ads while driving lol

The point was that it’s apples to oranges. Monetization is kinda the key issue here unless you’re ready to declare Facebook a utility and publicly fund it. Personally, I’d rather we be rid of it entirely.

And that is totally unreasonable collection, of course. It’s also completely incomparable to pretending that Facebook is as necessary as a car (at least in America).

But there’s also no ad-supported cars.
