Netflix Windows app is set to remove its downloads feature, while introducing ads (www.techradar.com)

Netflix has managed to annoy a good number of its users with an announcement about an upcoming update to its Windows 11 (and Windows 10) app: support for adverts and live events will be added, but the ability to download content is being taken away....

Lol downloads is the one thing that definitively does not work for Plex

In my limited understanding, they almost certainly do not because if they did client devices would struggle to decode some non-standard format.

It’s probably a DRM limitation.

Try using your toaster’s bagel setting if it has one to minimize the toasting of the outside (I have no dog in the fight, just something I thought about)

Note that PiVPN is only being maintained on a “best effort” basis, so you may wish to look into the component parts separately and just install that way.

Yeah I normally opt out of all tracking or telemetry, but when it’s a project that I feel like I can trust and want to make better I make sure to turn it on.

Do you have a link to an article or a Wikipedia page that I could read more on this?

I don’t think anyone knows what a C° is

Most every kid who has taken high school science should know what °C is, though

I’m in the US working for a company that uses smart card plus PIN for login, then everything else is automatic SSO using those credentials.

This does not seem correct at all… as the comic states, it’s caused by the Doppler effect, not because red is the “fastest” light wavelength—it’s light it all travels at the same speed in a vacuum.

What're some of the dumbest things you've done to yourself in Linux?

I’m working on a some materials for a class wherein I’ll be teaching some young, wide-eyed Windows nerds about Linux and we’re including a section we’re calling “foot guns”. Basically it’s ways you might shoot yourself in the foot while meddling with your newfound Linux powers....

Ahhhh why not anything in /tmp or better ${TMPDIR:-/tmp} or best mktemp

Sadly still no c/tombstoning for this post
