Another reason to sail the high seas
No you are mistaken with "Or $5 mire to own it". You own a license to watch for the amount of time the platforms decides to keep it up.

am I reading this right, that my cpu just died?
If the CPU died, the PC would not have booted up so far.

Wired headphones do not have the need for replaceable batteries.

How can I keep my forwarded port secure?
A port is not secure or insecure. The thing that can lead to security risks is the service that answers that port.
Use strong authentication and encryption on those services and keep them up to date.

Raspberry Pi is now manufacturing 70,000 Pi 5s per week, will surge to 90,000 in February
The 3B+ was probably the high of the raspberry pi. It is still pretty much unrivaled in terms of idle power consumption and energy efficiency (or at least i have not seen any other SBC that got below 0.5 Watts on idle) on the consumer market.
But i have trouble investing further into them.

The simple point is, no one forces you to use wires. Bluetooth has been a thing for decades.
But basically every (yes some exceptions) company that makes phones forced you to use wireless ones.
And in the case of Fairphone it is just simply hypocritical.

Suyu, a potential replacement for Yuzu
Reply in thread
I really doubt that they are that stupid. My guess is that they are hoping to hinder the development of the project for a bit to delay the switch 2 implementation in yuzu or a future switch 2 focused fork.
Also, all the ppl that were directly associated with the group are no longer legally allowed (or at least would risk a lawsuit against them) to contribute. So a lot of expertise got lost.

European Commission’s use of Microsoft 365 infringes data protection law for EU institutions and bodies
Imagine, all the money they are throwing to microsoft put towards a few teams that develops actively on open source projects to support independent and open source infrastructure.

Tor says it’s "still safe" amid reports of police deanonymizing users
This attack has been known for years now. And tor is simply not able to defend against it without a complete redesign.

Why do fdroid main repo keep apps that has not been updated in 12 years ? Isn't it more logical to move apps that has not been updated in more than three years to the archive ?
Just because an app is old, does not mean that it is not usable or bad. Let's look at games for example.

Immich v1.102.0 - ⚠️ Breaking Changes (OPT-IN ONLY)
Who the hell is pulling the docker-compise.yml automatically every release? I find myself already crazy by pulling the latest release but the compose file is just a disaster waiting to happen.

A 'old school' forum would be actually way better. Why? It is searchable with external tools, can be found with search engines and can be easily preserved and archived by orgs like archive.org

‘World’s first off-road solar SUV’ just drove across Morocco powered only by the sun
There is no actual information on how self sufficient the car actually is. There is only 1 number which states how long the car drives on a sunny day with solar+battery combined.
The car probably needs to charge for days via the solar panels in order to fill up the battery.

Kim Dotcom to be extradited from New Zealand to US
Reply in thread
You have to differentiate between the pirate bay and Kim dotcom. The pirate bay has not sold the access to the media like he has.
The huge difference is that he profited off of pirated media and pirate bay not. Kims incentive was always profit for himself.
