You’d be surprised. If you have ever ordered, or booked, something online, they will absolutely have something to connect that to and from there they keep pulling.

I meant I don’t give it to companies, because I know that’s why they want it.

If you have given it to a person who has any account anywhere that has anything remotely to do with meta-owned entities, and they did not explicitly say no to sharing contacts info (basically just one person giving FB messenger access to their phone contacts), then meta has your phone number, name and a whole bunch of scarily accurate extrapolated data on you and other sources they correlate that with.

Yep, Western Digital said they were sold out of drives for all of 2026. Since 2026 is just starting, they haven’t actually produced those drives or gotten actual money for them.

This is exceedingly normal procedure for manufacturing companies, and not limited to tech industry by any means. They know how much they can potentially produce on their lines, if they have predicted customers to fulfill the capacity for a full year they are basically sold out despite not having produced most of it yet.

The company I work for also has “sold out” for several of our factories because we have orders for 110% production capacity on them. Orders are not paid up front, they never are in any industry, it’s always paid after delivery usually with a 30-90 days delay (and even more in some cases).

There is nothing spectacularly weird or out of place in the announcement they’ve made, it’s basically standard procedure.

If the uplink bandwidth is more than sufficient for users in Europe, and it doesn’t degrade over distance, then why is the same uplink not enough for the exact same thing in Asia?

When I try to point it army server, I’m prompted with a page saying it’s only possible in the paid tier

Apparently only for appletv, for iOS there are no issues.

You thinking I’m a jerk doesn’t change the fact that the appletv app is a burning pile of dog crap. My opinion is that they should actively work on it, the lacking quality and functionality is just fact.

Are you this shitty to people who submit pull requests to your dog-shit bug-ridden open-source software repos? Do you even have anything that’s open-source that tries to solve a problem?

Of course, obviously I am the only infallible person in the universe…scrub

Dude no one is forcing them to work on the project, they can just ditch it if they don’t want to do it anymore. Just because it’s free people are still allowed to voice opinions on the project, sure my comment is tongue in cheek, no one cares…welcome to the internet, is this your first day?

Yeah it doesn’t work with your own media server on the free tier, so they can go fuck themselves.

My server works fine with all other clients though, except the appletv one. In the appletv app I cannot change audio language or reliably change subs. Or, technically I can, it just doesn’t select the language I actually choose, it chooses some random one. This only happens on appletv app, it works as intended on all other devices, both android, iOS, browsers and MS/Linux clients.

Ok, now fix the shitty client on appletv…

I think the ROI for my server is something like 6-7 years, not counting the electricity it uses. I don’t do it to save money but to gain independence, which is good because realistically it will never break even.

The issue is not listening to music, the issue is trying to circumvent company IT policy to install software they’re not allowed to install, e.g. spottube. So, if they want to use something like that, they need to do so on their own devices.

Where? I can’t seem to find that option anywhere in my bitwarden app

Edit: NVM found it, it’s just hidden by several clicks before it’s an option.

It kind of sounds like OP tried to circumvent limitations in the free tier by formatting the available field in a certain way, but this then got caught by proton and then stored “correctly”, which is in a way that requires the paid tier.

Bitwarden doesn’t do any of the stuff that makes proton pass extremely usable. You can’t easily manage logins and create them on the fly with custom emails in bit/vaultwarden. That is by far the most valuable feature of proton pass IMO, the seamless integration with simplelogin is just so damn convenient.

Yeah but that means users need to go get a different launcher (technically, since it’s a fork to a new project) than the one that they have installed. The already installed launcher will just continue with a new license.

It got sold to a new company and the original dev left…they can just release it under a new license if they want, so whatever license it once was released under could be irrelevant when they did a new release/update.

Don’t even plug in your shitty ISP router, they always suck. Always use your own router directly, don’t just put theirs in bridge mode.
