kde, linux, busses, open source and the good old Grateful Dead.
Not to defend Bing in anyway, but I typed logitech unifying software and the first result is the download page on logitechs site.
I am not doubting you, but why is it so different for me? I see non of the ??? section, no ads, just a link at the top like you would expect.
What are you using or doing different?
I am fully aware of Alan Turnings work and it is rather exceptional when you read that formulas were be8ng created for diffusion models in the late 40’s.
But i really don’t care thar whoever wrote that wikipedia page believes the hype. We are still in statistical algorithm stages. Even on the wiki page it says thar AI is aware of its surroundings as a feature of AI. We do not have that.
Also, it appears that most people are still not fooled by “ai” as we have it today, meaning it does not pass even the most basic Turing test. Which a lot of academic believe is not even enough as a marker of ai ad that too wad from the 50’s
There is no intelligence. There is only algorithms. The place we are at is not anywhere near approaching artificial intelligence, it is only buzzwords. If you know about how this works this should be clear. I think I was being very objective: we have statistical engines and diffusion formulas. No intelligence, of any kind, is being demonstrated. AI is a marketing term at this point. No original ideas, no real knowledge of past or future events, no ability to determine correct answers from false ones. Even the better models that try to basically watch the other models are still not that great beyond the basics of “what is the next most likely word here”.
No we haven’t. We have an appearance of a AI. Large language models and diffusion models are just machine learning. Algorithm statistic engines.
Nothing thinks, creates, cares, or knows the difference between something correct or wrong.
Yeah kinda tired of it. We don’t even have AI yet, and here people are throwing around the term right and left and then accusing everything under the sun to be generated by it.
You are saying steam link for VR correct? Because Steam Link itself works fine.
The only thing I have to dual boot for is VR at this point. And I havent even done that in maybe 2 years. But it really is the final thing for me.
All the other games I care to play work fine. The last two Resident Evil’s were flawless. Almost everything is pretty much click and play these days.
I remote to other computers and remote into my own, so I take it you are using Parsec for something specific? I never used it before.
I’ll give it another try if AMD gets it together with their driver support.
As an AMD GPU linux user this is confusing. There is no driver needed. There is nothing to do with AMD. Must be the laptop? A unusual variant, or early adopter?
I am not a fan of emojis in online conversation, but this time it does change how I perceived what you wrote. You are not happy about this? I would be so pleased if my country got rid of the penny.
Pyrosis did a great job answering a lot of your questions, I will focus again on why I cannot recommend plex:
Opt-In is not acceptable. You need to opt-out of: data sharing, data sharing with partners (unless you are in the UK or specific States), sharing playback data, stopping discovery together and activity feed, and turning off all of their live tv and streaming services.
Sharing streaming habits with others is not something that ever should have been opt-out. They keep pushing the line.
By the way, several of the “features” you mention are not included by default. Hardware decoding, downloads, DVR, etc.
I run both concurrently. I have a plex pass from way back when, maybe a decade or more.
What plex is now is not what it once was. Trying to socialize viewing habits, opting in by default to analysis, ads, reviews, and sharing that info has gone too far. Plex also works on these features such as discovery which benefits them, instead of open bugs.
That us why I can’t recommend it.
As for a feature comparison. Jellyfin is snappier, and faster. Plex is more detailed in their interface, and has better Metadata. Jellyfin sometimes doesn’t restart where I left off. Jellyfin is much, much better on mobile devices, but has less clients for tv’s. Jellyfin doesn’t rely on any server but my own, where plex wants to authenticate with thier own servers and ask for accounts (and money) to have full functionality. Jellyfin always downloads to a client. Plex…might. Plex has better handling of multiple streams in one file.
Because they are doing things in their best interest and not the end user.
As so many like to say here the enshitification is happening.
If you want to self host, plex isn’t it.
Please:
My windows laptop does not want to conserve the battery, or use an 80% charge. It instead relies on a third party piece of software - typically the manufactures - that drags in all sorts of crap I do not want, with Eula’s I do not agree with. Linux doesnt do that, and properly preserves my battery. I don’t know whats wrong with your Mint install or laptop, but I have a laptop I put linux on 10 years ago, and it still works great and the battery is still within 95% of new, which frankly is amazing. Never had windows on it. And of course you can configure all of that with a GUI.
My other laptop had windows on it, and the intel driver would turn off features in my wifi card because I had not paid for that version. In linux it was a full feature wifi card.
My printer wont work with windows, even though it is supposed to be a windows printer. The drivers, which won’t install, even if they did will pull in a bunch of crap, and Eulas that I do not agree with. On my linux machine it just works. No drivers needed.
In Windows, it nearly bricked my Video card trying to update firmware from a driver update I did not ask for. Had to force a new driver, which in turn updated firmware. And once again, said driver adds a ton of crap and services and a Eula I do not want. On my Linux machine, it just works, AND does not require me to manage drivers at all. AMD.
I am not sure what you are trying to say about Excel, that is just a confusing sentence.
For me the world is the opposite. Linux is easy and just works. Windows is the pain in my ass and always does something annoying (exactly like this article is saying).
I daily drive Linux. Have for years. I choose to only remote into widows, and that is only if someone will pay me to do it. I have an MSDN and all MS software available to me, and even when it is free to me, I would rather not use it.
Like what? I don’t even have chrome on my phone. If forced to not use the mighty firefox (or Firefox focus) at least use a chrome variant. They have ad block. Or better still, do adblock phone wide.
Funny to see AI as the issue, not the ads.
Why are you not blocking the ads?
Ok I am going to need some context. Is this an internal site? I this a public site? And finally what site?

And trying to get pure maple syrup and olive oil these days is also a pain, when it shouldn’t be.
Maple is often blended, and olive and avacado is straight up fraud most often.
To be honest, I am curious what had happened since they said it.
But I do expect everyone on the internet to lie non stop.
2 rules to the internet i follow since 1985: everyone is a liar until proven otherwise, and annonimty is important to keep rule 1.
Ferraro didn’t own the suppliers, and I thought they said they were going to address the issues of Turkish child labor with their suppliers. Are you saying they didnt?
Just tried it in Edge, with no ad block.
The first link was what I was searching for. None of that extra stuff showed up. The ad (for something unrelated) was in a column in the right.
There is no account associated, little browsing history. This machine was completely wiped 2 weeks ago.
I think the difference is, I am not in the US.
