What’s the Weissman score?

Aren’t the students provided computers?

Here students usually get provided computers and then MS accounts are no problem since they just have to logon with their domain account.

In the case of normal apps like PayPal graphics shouldn’t be a huge factor since it should be vectorized and there is pretty much no graphics in apps like PayPal.

The issue comes from frameworks.

Ordering components with unnecessarily small tolerances is stupid and a waste of money but of course they will complain if you can’t make the parts to the specifications.

Why did you even take the order in the first place if you can’t manage to produce them to spec?

Just don’t do it if you use any private trackers.

I’m fairly certain that you could get banned if you put public trackers on a torrent from a private tracker.

If you are gonna do that you might as well change your torrent client settings to automatically include the extra trackers.

That’s a waste of time. The torrent already comes included with the needed trackers.

Also get rid of password authentication if you can.

Funny who it’s your team but they did it poorly.

So true. But I can’t complain that the software is getting better.

That’s very possible.

Pretty sure GTA V use(d) SVN or something like that. I remember reading the source code and being surprised that they didn’t use GIT.

I don’t think it justifies putting remote streams as a whole behind a paywall. But I suspect that the feature is very widely used since it makes remote streams work out of the box regardless of your setup. It’s also turned on by default.

Requiring a subscription for remote access is actually fucking insane, they don’t have any bandwidth costs associated with that other than authentication so ???

They have provided a free relay service for years that makes it possible to access a server even if there are things in the way like CGNAT. That service had a low bandwidth limit but undoubtedly cost them money, so yes. But yes, they should have just moved that feature entirely to Plex pass (there is already a higher bandwidth limit for Plex pass users)

Browser apps are very annoying though. The support for some codecs (like HEVC) is usually worse in a browser.

So what? Some people just want to make stuff that helps other people.

A more open license is a way to accomplish that.

IMO it’s weird to complain that someone makes their thing even more open source.

Sounds good to me.

I actually prefer the MIT license too. It’s more open.

Place the keyboard on your lap.

You have drives packaged like other stuff with a colourfull box with marketing and all that? All the drives I have ever bought in store or online were shipped or handed over to me like I described above.

SSDs and external hard drives usually have some kinds of retail box here, but I don’t think HDDs usually do. Granted, I have never bought the normal consumer tier drives, like Seagate baracuda or WD Blue so maybe that’s why. For personal use in my PC, I usually stick with Seagate Ironwolf or WD Red.

Don’t HDDs usually come just in antistatic bags?

All the drives I ever purchased came in just a plain box with packing materials and the drive in some antistatic bag. So I assume the retailer gets big loads of disks from the manufacturer/reseller and unpacks them and then ships them individually and thus packs them on demand.
