Hydrophobic coating loosely means a thin water proof coating on a material that otherwise isn’t waterproof.
Example: the previously mentioned popcorn bags are paper based but with a thin plastic based coating. (Historically we used to use wax for this kind of thing but in the modern day it’s almost always plastic)
Not that containers made of glass, ceramic, or metals that don’t corrode don’t need and typically don’t have hydrophobic coatings.
Windows is designed to work on a very wide range of specs, so older devices as well as low-end newer devices should be able to run it.
That’s even more true about Linux. Many popular distros can be run on a raspberry pi, a 20 year old MacBook, or a state-of-the-art gaming desktop.
It’s less true about macOS because Apple has more control over the hardware so they can be pickier. Mobile developers also have more control over the hardware and can be pickier, although that’s less true about Android than iPhone.
It’s still there, buried in the settings. TBF I wouldn’t expect them to remove it, because some people probably do use it.
I’m not sure how legal it is for CA to stop paying taxes. At the very least, it’s an attempt to attack where it hurts, which is in the money.
I have like a 70% success rate with this trick
No.
The “all browsers are iOS reskin” thing is browsers must use WebKit for JavaScript and rendering, which are the two biggest parts of a browser. WebKit is a library of code distributed as part of the iOS SDK. However, Safari adds more on top of WebKit, including its plugin API. Installing plugins into iOS Safari wont affect anything just using WebKit because they aren’t using the Safari plugins code.
In theory Firefox could implement its own plugins system for iOS, but it would more limited than the normal Firefox plugin system for other devices, and also they might run into policy issues with Apple (this policy about 3rd party browsers is part of a broader policy against side loading, which has in the past prevented things like emulators and programming apps into the App Store. They have recently started loosening up on their anti-side loading policies, however).
If you use reusable bags, bottles, and other containers, that’s way more sustainable than any single use product.
But using paper is still better than plastic, and yes, trees can be and are sustainably farmed in many parts of the world.
I have seen some shifts away from plastic. For example, Apple seems to have removed almost all if not all plastic from their packaging, replacing it with paper.
The environmental toll doesn’t have to be that bad. You can get decent results from single high-end gaming GPU.
Bad idea because
While selling data in general is shitty, I want to push back on the fear mongering a little bit.
This only applies to new accounts, can be opt-out of, and doesn’t apply to self-hosted content.
“Fly Me To The Moon”, 2024
I use a good chunk of the paid PlexAmp features, although I agree they are mostly just extras.
However, Downloads is a must-have IMO. I often listen to music while traveling, e.g. on a plane or train or on a road trip, and cell service is unreliable in those situations.
Also just getting bombarded by ads to upgrade would be enough for me to consider the product a “free trial”, although tbf I don’t know how bad PlexAmp is about that.
The worst movie I’ve ever seen has an 89% audience score
Ah neat, it used to require PlexPass to use the app at all. Now it only requires PlexPass for most of the app, including some pretty basic features like downloads.
Still, it is nice that there’s some level of “free trial” for it.
To be clear I love PlexAmp and use it as my main audio player, but I’ve paid for a plex lifetime pass.
You do need to pay for plexamp
The annoying thing about the dupe policy is sometimes the answer does change and the accepted answer to the existing question is from 5 years ago.
IP addresses could be used to identify someone
I tried jellyfin but it isn’t even close to as a good as plex
There is some truth to this

Making an MMO maintainable by the userbase might be complicated. But way more common are games that could easily have LAN based multiplayer but the company decides not to add it, or even singleplayer games that require an internet connection, just so the company can put limits on how and when the game is played.
