Interesting quote at the bottom of the article:

A 2023 study found that 11% of U.S. adults (roughly 23 million) pirated content in the previous year. The NFL says it does not track illegal viewership of its games, though the league believes that new legal avenues to consume its broadcasts—such as direct-to-consumer streaming services, in addition to traditional TV packages—are lowering the reliance on unauthorized methods.

I can’t decide if 11% is higher or lower than I expected, but also insightful that the NFL in particular doesn’t seem to think this affects their bottom line much? Hard to believe since a sports streaming package can easily be triple digits and only go up year after year.

Personally I’d blame parents more than the schools, especially in America. Parent involvement is nearing all-time lows and it seems a lot of them are expecting all learning to be done outside the home. I learned more about computers from my dad than any class or teacher.

Ditto, it’s very capable and easy to use

Exactly this. The second you utter the word “federation” you can see people’s eyes glaze over in real time. The email explainer is good but it really needs to be a short sentence and that’s it

I hate how YouTube seems to intentionally show salacious ads if you opt out of ad personalization. I get a ton of Temu spam despite not purchasing anything from that app or even having it on my phone, and the ads themselves usually feature scantily-clad women that takes up 70% of the screen. I’ve made a habit of just opening up the comments section and keeping them open the entire duration of the video. It really feels like YouTube/Google/Alphabet is saying “oh, you don’t want people around you to think you’re a perv? Let us collect more data about you so you can save face in public when you use our app at the gym or at work.”

This is still good to know, I didn’t know the bulbs were just endpoints, gonna avoid them going forward and find repeater zigbee bulbs instead. Thanks!

I will definitely try this, thanks!

This is sounding similar enough to my issue that I’m leaning towards it being a sengled thing lol. Appreciate the info!

I must be living under a rock because this is the first I’ve heard of USB 4. Is it just a speed bump or does it affect the type of data that can be transferred? In my experience I’ve had issues using a usb 2.0 flash drive to use a live image of a Linux iso in a 3.1 port

Imo, no, and that’s with selling stocks and such. As long as you know what box goes where it’s really not too bad, just time-consuming at times. I use FreeTaxUSA for state and federal, and I think it’s worth it. I feel like the whole “taxes are incredibly difficult” apply if there are a lot of edge cases surrounding deductions and the like, but to your point if you’re doing standard deductions you can definitely do them on your own.
