That whole Spotify Connect feature and Sonos support is what keeps me in the ecosystem, unfortunately...

Tell that to China, with their 5 year plans. Capitalism is also not the way to move forward - it heavily promotes inequality and strife in the world.

Caring for the needy isn't charity, it's making sure they aren't needy. Promoting entrepreneurship isn't companies popping up left and right doing Uber but for dogs kind of idea, it's solving the world's biggest problems with new ideas.

You can't guard society against the excesses of capitalism because capitalism promotes corruption, artificial scarcity, and waste of resources by design.

With this being said, to change how the western world acts we must recognize that the party system exists to sustain itself and we won't have real change if we don't change it for power to be given to real people and not career politicians (or build guillotines)

Algorithmically curated timelines are designed to be addictive. Fediverse doesn't have that, it's time based, like it used to be before.

Do we think traffic data will ever be available for a project like this one? Or maybe it already is and I just don't know.

I remember when GG started it seemed that suddenly people became really misogynistic and violently so. I was surprised. I came to realize it wasn't sudden, they had been all there, but with GG they just had an excuse to come out.

What bluemaga? you're either astroturfing or completely naive.

The poster reveals himself when he adds Hilary whose problematic actions were over 10 years ago but ignores Donald. The astroturfing is real

Over 25 years ago, during the dial-up era, there were many computers compromised with certain worms that would open up your computer for remote connections. One of the possibilities when connected was to download the system saved passwords including those for the dial up software. I had many, many, such logins saved including corporate and education ones, with no time caps. During about a year I would only pay for the phone call, not for the internet service. Simpler times.

 

Recently I have had an issue that whenever I connected an external monitor to my laptop it would just freeze. This is on an Asus laptop with nvidia graphics.

The only way I managed to solve it was by following this solution https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/all/windows-10-reset-external-monitors-settings/b3a53cef-e54f-4410-b09e-6846fa297a3f

The solution was essentially deleting these reg folders

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers\Configuration
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers\Connectivity
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Control\GraphicsDrivers\ScaleFactors

With this, all configuration is deleted and when you connect a monitor you may need to reconfigure if it's extended, duplicated, etc.

Hope this is helpful to others.
