Смотрю вырезку с WAN Show у LTT где они обсуждают как у них там идёт/прошёл второй Linux Challenge.

Do you really need to play this game?

Всё, эти тоже заразились, несите следующих 🤣

Don't call it "#Sideloading", you #TechIlliterate!

• Instead say: "#Google wants to #monopolize #Android #App #Installations and prevent users from choosing where and how they can get #Apps!"

In Friday's @LinusTech #wanshow LLD talk about the recent Tesla autopilot crash, my JD thesis argued courts can adapt existing liability law to AI, treating faulty algos like defective products under negligence/strict liability. Seems to be holding up so far. research.ianwardell.com

Too bad they aren't on Mastodon

The #LinusTechTips guy paying oodles for an artificial temporary "lithp" (lisp) is one of the funniest things, this week. 😅 #WANshow

While our #EU #German socialised #HealthInsurance won't carry repairing my worn-out front teeth, that sometimes get infected and make me feel my pulsing heart beats.

I'm a #Millennial on a pension/social benefits kinda budget, btw - basically, poor people.

Also, my "luxury bone guy" / #Dentist seems to have abandoned the cheap amalgam filling procedures! 😠

Seriously, if I was #LinusSebastian of #LinusTechTips I'd literally choose to #donate the cost of a #TeamViewer #subscription to #FLOSS #RemoteDesktop projects like #Dayon instead and sue TeamViewer into upholding their contract or a full refund with interest as if it was a loan because clearly they chose violate that contract on their own terms and initiative!

And yes, Dayon! is awesome and I can fully recommend this as an alternative to TeamViewer, #AnyDesk, etc.

• For any system that needs Remote Access as unattended I'd recommend to setup a #VPN or at least a Reverse-#SSH connection anyway so one can launch something like Dayon! by just sending a single command and have #RemoteDesktop access on-demand.

So yeah, TeamViewer literally shot themselves in the foot here by deciding to shaft paying customers who were able and willing to pay the absurd prices you asked for for a one-time license.

• Also whilst TeamViewer does OFC maintain some infrastructure, most what they do is basically run a "rendrevous"-Server to allow two endpoints behind NATs to connect to each other and exchange details to make UPnP-style hole-punching work.

That's traffic in the single-digit megabytes per year and client, as there's not much between as clients pinging their server and basically boing some simple handshakes.

• And as Linus said it's not his problem if they gotta have to keep systems up and running in perpetuity. They offered that deal and now they have to suffer through it! By paying the obligations are on to TeamViewer to make it work and continue to make it work!

Also if I'm on a #LAN why would I want to use TeamViewer and not any #VNC (or god forbid #RDP) server? THE WHOLE POINT OF USING TeamViewer, AnyDesk, etc. IS TO NOT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT NATs, FIREWALLS AND IP-ADDRESSES AND JUST GET CONNECTED FFS!!!

• Personally I use #Remmina and Dayon, but that's because Remmina is comfortable even for SSH and can do that as well as RDP & VNC and Dayon is just the simple option I can walktrough people that need #TechSupport #remote|ly for a quick hands-on...

Definitely my recommendation because it also allows for any use-cases and doesn't nag one to "buy a license!"

• So please someone please let #Linus know about Dayon so he can do a "TeamViewer alternatives" video...

Linus on the WAN Show is, once again, failing to understand something very important about Apple hardware versus custom PCs.

Yeah, with Apple hardware you have to choose your spec with no upgrade flexibility. What you gain is something you absolutely cannot get from your custom PC build: optimized performance.

Yeah, it costs more, but the design is more expensive, and not without reason.

You get what you pay for, in this case.
