They have made it nearly impossible for a non-rooted phone to have apps automatically update, or an app store automatically update apps if it isn't the play store.

Ha, I was typing on my phone, using OpenBoard, it really sucks at accidental b's instead of spaces. And backspace likes to deleted spaces between words.

The advantage of docker, as I see it for home labs, is keeping things tidy, ensuring compatibility, and easy to manage/backup setup configs, app configs, and app data. It is all very predictable and manageable. I can move my docker compose and data from one host to another in literal seconds. I can, likewise, spin up and down test environments in seconds too. Obviously the whole scaling thing that people love containers for is pointless in a homelab, but many of the things that make it scalable also make it easy to manage.

Most websites are cookie cutter garbage anyways. I see no problems with cutting out the middle men of people who know his to fill out a template and install WordPress plugins.

Actually good and unique websites will still require design and programming work.

The problem is, they can't provide a direct alternative. On Apple they straight can't sideload, and on Android Google has intentionally made the experience shitty and dangerous to discourage it.

They come in 3 motor versions, 2 in the back, 1 in the front, so you might right about the uneven power distribution.

Manipulating the stock market isn't hard if you aren't ethical. Elon Musk did it a ton. From the killer AI standpoint, there are a few tricks, but generally create a bad news event for various companies and either invest while it is low and recovers when the news is found to be fake, or short it to time with the negative event. On top of that, a non-ethical super intelligence could likely hack into networks and get insider information for trading. When you discard all ethics, making money on the stock market is easy. It works well for congress.

If an AI was sufficiently advanced, it could manipulate the stock market to gain a lot of wealth real fast under a corporation with falsified documents, then pay Chinese fab house to kick off the war machine.

But they do require you create an account and register the printer before it will function with their newer consumer printers.

You can make a backup of your Steam games too. A good portion of them can be copied out of the Steam folder and run completely independently. If you want to retain your steam games permanently, you are a free to hack them up as physical media.

It's all quote text. That is, text that starts with a >.

For Example.

They may have done a poor job of explains thing, but they are right. Secure boot is a system that every manufactured computer in the last 5+ years has support. The only reason you can install anything but Windows on most PCs is because the manufacturer let you, but they could take it away in an instant by requiring secure boot and only allowing Microsoft's signatures to boot an OS. Valve could have done the same thing if they chose. That's basically how the XBox works these days, and it wouldn't surprise me if the PlayStation is the same, since it is x64 as well.
