My mid 2013 MacBook air sees more use than any of my other devices.

I bought it for £100 a few years back and haven’t looked back.

Ore forebears’ masters were money-grubbing cunts, this is true. Let’s not pretend old matey in the pits was actively participating in the enactment of policies which caused death and emigration on scales unbeknownst before.

Our masters are now too, but at least they pretend not to be. Although they still don’t teach kids about the empire properly.

XFCE. Because I’m an idiot, and all my computers are old.

The line must go UP.

Is it what AI is good at, or is it just that the image generation stuff is where the focus has been because it’s more accessible to non-tech literate?

I’ve found that breaking cables is a personal issue. I still have an old usb Xbox 360 controller for pc gaming from when I owned an xbox. My partner has destroyed cables for laptops, hairdryers, headphones in less than 12 months.

Some cables are objectively worse than others (macbook chargers I’m looking at you) but a modicum of care generally is enough to make sure they last without too much hassle.

How does the law require them to be greedy?

I just assumed that it was shareholders.

So it’s likely that I’ll have 2-5 people accessing the central info.

It’s one household so they’ll be on the same network but ideally I’d like to be able to sync calendars (and the associated info) at any given time online.

That’s where I run out of knowledge, essentially. Setting up a basic CalDAV server (like Baikal for example) isn’t beyond the realm of possibility, it’s just knowing how to actually get it online.

Would I need my own server in my home, or can I host it similarly to my Wordpress website, for example?

Yeah, CalDAV looks like the best fit from my limited searching, it’s just actually putting that into a usable system that I can use that I’m struggling with!

I don’t mind a bit of proprietary-ness, what I’m after is controlling how and with whom I can share my data.

Essentially the goal is to have a family’s worth of accounts with Calendars, To-Dos/Reminders, and Notes that I can back up myself but still allows syncing to phones/PCs, etc. and basically a central calendar for ‘global’ (ie. Whole family) events.

I went to the wrong church…

And even better than that, they tailor their flavorful food for our palettes!

Fantastic.

I’d argue the whole county, but Norwich is certainly the eye of the storm on that front…

Do they use the little plastic discs? I always wonder if that’s not liable to scratch up the screen…

I can’t think of a phone I’ve owned that hasn’t done this, even as far back as my O2 Ice

Disney felt like a tipping point for me (and Netflix’s new role as a production company). It was only when that came about that people like Paramount started offering their own services (idk how true that is but it’s certainly how it felt).

I still pay for Disney+ right now, but a big part of the appeal of streaming for me was having lots of stuff in one place. Now it’s just cable/satellite all over again.
