One day, after I am done with -insert reason here-, I will have a bad ass, well thought out backup solution.
For some reason you're "insert reason here" was dropped by lemmy. I guess a sequential less-than/greater-than messes with it.

Right?
$450 and a toaster to use something like the external batteries I've used for a decade.
Exactly.
Someone older than a teen understands we have a responsibility to bring people together, create a trusting environment, focused on the job at hand.
So even when someone brings up politics, I simply don't respond, or just ask a work question. Because I know most people doing this want to have their viewpoint validated, and I probably don't agree in some way. This situation helps no one, and just promotes divisiveness.
Work is for work, not for political bullshit.
Political bullshit is alway divisive, and we all work too damn hard to build cohesive teams.
I've seen it many times - if you're one of those that is compelled to bring outside bullshit to work, where we have enough actual related issues to contend with, you'll be left behind. People won't want to work with you, I because you're not a team player and more interested in discussing political crap (or reality TV crap, or whatever) than discussing the very real issues in front of us.
We already don't have enough time for the tasks at hand, last thing we need is such juvenile nonsense.
You want to talk politics, do it on your break, away from me.
And your freedom of speech bullshit argument is nothing more than a sophistry tactic known as a strawman. This reveals you to be a sophist, not interested in discovering truth, but rather in winning an argument.
You even led with castigating me, and continued on with denigrating.
You should probably revisit your intentions and ethics.
So you have nothing to hide, eh?
These tvs, like smartphones, track lots of stuff. And the databases they feed make all sorts of inferences.
They even scan what you're watching from other sources and can determine what show it is, and report that info too.
They know when you're home and leave, to some extent.
I've read of patents for wifi tech in tvs that will connect to other TVs of the same brand for a connection if you don't set one up.
They definitely use their own DNS, and probably have some hard coded IPs so you can't block them phoning home via DNS (I've tested this myself). I can see this traffic even when I setup DNS blocks - they still hit the vendor's service IPs (looking at you, Samsung).
These companies are openly antagonistic and adversarial to us, and you "have nothing to hide"?
Another hero we didn't know we needed.
Have my grateful uovote.
Wow, I never made that connection
Very good point about Agile.
As an end-user (that is, the IT staff that will be deploying/managing things), I prefer less-frequent releases. I'd love to see 1 or 2 releases a year for all software (pipe dream, I know). Once you have a handful of packages, you end up with constant change to manage.
I suspect what we end up with is early adopters embracing the frequent releases, and providing feedback/error reporting, while people like me benefit from them while choosing to upgrade less frequently.
There are about 3 apps that I'm a beta tester for, so even I'm part of that early-adopter group.
