A few years ago I'd say hell no but windows 10/11 has become a nightmare to use. Shady telemetry collection aside it runs hot as all fuck and drains my laptops battery too fast.

I never thought id say this but between the two I'd just get an m2 or newer Mac.

Honestly, if you block this one user you get rid of most of it πŸ˜‚. Guy's on their payroll for sure.

If you're hosting plex or jellyfin I'd recommend an old Intel processor with quicksync. I paid like 200 for my pc on ebay gutted it and put it in a bigger case for more hard drives. Runs 4k videos like a champ with no GPU installed.

I hesitantly switched a while ago, have had 0 ragrets except that there are some games I can't play like EA games. But is that really a bad thing though?

Agreed, it's just hard to find a suitable replacement for many things like tvs, since there's a lack of alternative apps for other platforms on things like roku or LG tvs

Pihole doesn't block YouTube ads as it's only a dns blocker, Google serves the ads from the same servers as the videos from what I understand. Adguard home works the same.

Invidious used to work, it's a self hosted YouTube instance that blockw out ads and has things like sponsorblock. I have Playlet installed on my roku pointing at my instance but about a week or so ago it's been giving only errors πŸ˜”.

Good news is that it's slated to go stable some time this year iirc.

If I were to bet, I'd say the campaign is ran by a company that rhymes with Smoogle

Pcs are clearly inferior, that's like 32gb on a Mac. /s

Brother printers, I also had an older ricoh you could just buy toners and chips or even use a raspberry pi script to reset the chip page count

Well shit I signed up because it worked on plex...

 

Hello,

I'm a Sr Dev who mostly has done back-end work but I'm "dangerous enough" in front end frameworks to get things done in my job.

I have another Sr Dev on my team who is ADAMANT on using ul/ol's everywhere. And I mean EVERYWHERE.

Navigation menu items will get done as a list.

Say I have a list of key value pairs or tags describing an item on a page, that's a list. If there are two sections on a page that's also a list. Even forms are built as lists of inputs and buttons. To the point where I'm positive if I told them to recreate the google front page I'm 100% they'd make a ul and a li for the image, another for the box and a separate li for the buttons.

My frustration is that every piece of documentation regarding ordered lists and unordered lists are for literally listings out items as numbered or bulleted lists, not logically grouping things on a page. Also our code is littered with extra css to strip out the bullet points and numbers on a basic li item.

I've worked on several projects and this is the first time I've ever seen lists so overused. Is this normal on some projects? It feels wrong but I don't know the exact terminology to use to explain why, given my inexperience in front end development.
