That 6% attributed to “unknown” is the one true OS, the only one ordained by the Almighty… Temple OS!

ITeeTechMonkey, to privacy in Automakers Are Sharing Consumers’ Driving Behavior With Insurance Companies

Unfortunately its not a third party module but manufacturer built-in features.

Modern cars are internet-enabled, allowing access to services like navigation, roadside assistance and car apps that drivers can connect to their vehicles to locate them or unlock them remotely. In recent years, automakers, including G.M., Honda, Kia and Hyundai, have started offering optional features in their connected-car apps that rate people’s driving. Some drivers may not realize that, if they turn on these features, the car companies then give information about how they drive to data brokers like LexisNexis.

ITeeTechMonkey, to linux in Which one do you prefer? htop, btop or top?
@ITeeTechMonkey@lemmy.world avatar

I run Tilix with split terminals and always have one with htop running. It is so satisfying finding a troublesome process and killing it in htop.

Looking at you hanged ssh sessions…

ITeeTechMonkey, to games in EA CEO talks AI, says the usual stuff before the bong rip hits and he starts blabbing about a future where 3 billion people are creating EA's games with it

The development cycle is very iterative, and incredibly time consuming, which is why games are now taking six and seven years to build, as they’ve gotten bigger and deeper," said Wilson, “So the first thing for us is how do we make that more efficient?”

I dunno maybe take a page from indie developers and make fun games that are innovative?

I’ll take quality over quantity every time.

ITeeTechMonkey, to linux in Are there any Windows-exclusive programs you use?

Handbrake will rip DVDs, but not Blu Rays. That’s were good ol’ MakeMKV comes in.

I rip with MakeMKV (which will do DVDs as well) and then convert/encode the MKVs with Handbrake.

I do the conversion/encoding because the ripped files can be 35-50 GBs for regular Blu Rays (UHD Blu Rays are even bigger!) and I can get them down to 3-8 GBs with minimal quality loss.

I then toss the smaller MKVs on my jellyfin server.

EDIT: Handbrake CAN rip Blu Rays but only if they arent copy protected. MakeMKV is able to rip protected Blu Rays and DVDs.
