On the other hand printers always work out of the box on Linux without even installing any drivers, whilst getting them go work on Windows can often be a nightmare

OK, do you want me to tell 50 users of my Plex server that they can no longer use their shitty 10 year old smart TV to watch my movie library, and instead have to pay money buy a chromecast dongle, and then get a completely different UI and lose all their view progress on TV series? They'd just go back to paying for Netflix.

And yes, I have users that struggle even with the Plex app. My father can't figure out how to use his dumb-phone to call a contact, and is only able to accept incoming calls. It took months to teach him how to use the Plex app, switching him to a different one will take just as long

Yes. I have a lifetime Plex pass, and I donated to Jellyfin as well. Looking forward to the day I can uninstall Plex and no longer worry about them potentially giving my data to Media companies so they can sue for piracy

The problem with Jellyfin is that it's not a viable alternative for people hosting a Plex server for their family and friends. If you are the only 8ne using your server it's fine, but Jellyfin doesn't have working apps for every platform, and the ones that have a Jellyfin client available are not nearly as user friendly.

They also offer free tunneling for people that can't port-forward because they are locked behind cgnat. To be fair, the tunneling is limited to potato quality 2mbps bitrate, but that is a significant cost to them still

Just leave the area and come back to your pots being respawned. Infinite money glitch

Germany doesn't have free education, it just costs less than in the US. And unlike the US we actually have a school system divided into 3 different skill levels after 4th grade, and only the ones finishing the highest level of school education qualify to go to university. Today that's about 50% of school students, but it used to be way less

If a dealer detailed my factory new car before giving it to me I would refuse delivery

i never experienced an ecu bug before.

OK, that's a sample size of one, not very useful. Most Tesla owners never experienced an ECU bug either. I've never had an ECU bug in any of my own cars, but last year I had a rental car from Opel for a few months while my car was waiting for a replacement transmission to get shipped, and in the few months I had it I experienced an ECU bug once, where the car refused to be put into gear, and the only way to fix it was to disconnect the 12v battery and reattach it

It's a fact that modern cars get more complicated electronics every year, so ECU bugs leaving you stranded will get more common every year also

This is not about "having the energy" to do it. It takes discipline, not motivation, to work out before work every morning. Motivation is fleeting for everyone. You just suck it up, get to the gym, and by the time you finished your workout you are glad you did it

Don't forget your social life deteriorating because you're working or sleeping whilst your friends are meeting up

Keep in mind modern TVs have very low standby drain, and if it's an OLED then unplugging it or turning off the outlet instead of letting it stay in standby will actually slowly break your panel
