What country/region are you in?

In the North America, I’d recommend Novelkeys, Omnitype, Mekibo, Cannonkeys and spacecables (spaceholdings) for GMK sets

A better approach is to keep your eyes out on Geekhack. The majority of keyboards and keycaps go through an interest check there, and then the designer announces all regional vendors/prices prior to a groupbuy.

I don’t see the issue. Isn’t this how IT partitions disks?

Amassing a media library is simple enough, and software like jellyfin can pull in media info and make your media streamable on various devices with a polished UI.

However, finding good quality (in terms of merit) movies and shows is difficult.

Maybe start with movies critics or a movie discussion platform like letterboxd to see what others are watching/rating movies.

It’s weird how upset people are getting over memes about sync. It’s a shame because the memes are pretty funny.

None of the FOSS advocates actually care that you use Sync unless they’re going to your house and uninstalling it when your not looking.

And there’s a lot of misconceptions about free software. Free Software is opposed to proprietary software, not paid software. All projects, whether free or proprietary require compensation of some kind, or else they wouldn’t exist.

There is a legitimate debate around if proprietary software is ethical. The whole existence of the free software movement is because the proponents of it saw proprietary software as unethical.

That’s exciting! I’ve been keeping an eye out on the Type K since the IC was posted on GH.

It’s a shame that the base price and short groupbuy window is going to exclude a lot of folks from picking it up.

Just commenting this for those that may think free software is referring to price.

Free software is diametrically opposed to proprietary software, and not paid software.

Free software is free in terms of libre, not necessarily gratis. And there are corporations and individual contributors to free software that do charge for their product and maintenance of it.

In terms of telemetry, free software has the advantage over the proprietary counterpart.

It’s a lot more complicated to hide telemetry without the user knowing in free software.

You could always use a network tool, like iftop, to see network traffic on your PC. That could be a way too see if a program is phoning home. But you’ll probably want to use a suite of tools.

Legality will depend on the country your in.

But assuming your traffic to/from the server is encrypted, your probably okay.

There’s no point in cheating. Any good private tracker will let maintain a sizeable buffer assuming you seed with things like bonus points/free leech.

If it’s difficult to maintain a buffer, plan to move to a different tracker that will.

Plus, the big private trackers communicate with one another. Get caught in one, you’ll be found out in others.

I’m not familiar with e/OS/ but fairphone recently released their phone to the US market with this OS preinstalled.

On my personal computer, ~/bin has two directories within it.

One is for my .sh files and the other contains system links to them. The system link drops off the .sh and all scripts are added to my PATH

I think people often mix up capitalism with market-based economies. The former describes social relations while the former describes how commodities are distributed.

I’m personally not a fan of either. A planned economy geared toward people’s need, with the withering away of socio-ecomic classes (no more worker and capitalist distriction) just makes better sense to me.

Good bot

+1 for Jellyfin. GPL licensed software so nice.

Jellyfin is free (libre) and open-source. Plex is freemium and proprietary.

Jellyfin supports hardware acceleration for transcoding and also allows playback through 3rd party video players (mpv, vlc, ect). Those are the features I care most about.

I don’t use Plex because it’s proprietary, so I don’t know what merits Plex has.

Now that fairphone is officially sold in the US market, that’s my alternate pick.

For me personally, it having the /e/OS installed by default is a huge plus.

Honestly the car industry as a whole is whack, not just Tesla.

Most manufacturers would screw over their customers as well as the planet if it means a bigger profit.

If your on a budget, an older Thinkpad is a good choice. I picked up a X220 with a charger and spare battery off of Craiglist a year ago for $60.

Ended up going with Coreboot with a SeaBIOS payload and Debian OS.

Qbittorrent-nox. However I’m not completely sure if nox has support for a torrent creator tool like Qbittorrent does.
