Problem is when you procrastinate because manually importing transactions and correcting them is just annoying enough to make it a hassle. Then the transaction batch gets too large and you can’t remember details anymore so you give up and don’t track your budget at all.
That’s been my experience in the past at least.
It’s more complicated than just a spreadsheet but not as complicated as regular programming. You will want to learn general accounting practices like double entry bookkeeping to really understand how to use it though.
Seems to me that anything beyond the actual hosting and serving of the video file is unnecessary to include by default in a federated video streaming solution…
You are basically saying “Other than the most expensive and complicated parts” the rest is easy or unnecessary. Which isn’t necessarily accurate but still is being a bit dismissive of the problems at hand.
And one of the biggest criticisms of Peertube (aside from the dearth of content, which helpfully avoids the “expensive/complicated” parts) has been Discoverability. How do people watch your videos (or your playlist) if they don’t have a way of knowing that your videos even exist?
It proceeded without incident but I couldn’t help feeling nervous to trust that its lidar saw me and it interpreted me as a human.
I can’t say I view an average driver with any more trust though.
I guess it depends on how much you trust a company (both now and in the future) to do something they shouldn’t with this kind of setup, whether on purpose or though incompetence.
Personally, I don’t software silently installing unrelated services to my machine just in case the company decides they want to have it running on my machine in the future.
That’s surprising to hear. Netflix has always been a step above, Hulu is decently behind. The rest are pretty rough from my perspective, but slowly getting better over time. Amazon was definitely miserable to use for a long time and I don’t think had anything but a basic “fast-forward/rewind” functionality with no thumbnails for quite a while.
The Peacock app and streaming has been hit or miss on plenty of occasions.
I think the worse is the Disney app that makes it difficult to just replay a movie that’s already been watched. It likes to resume at the end of the credits of the episode you want to watch rather than realize I want to watch the whole episode not just the final 10 seconds of credits. Or that switching between an episode when watching something from your “Previously Watched” list means finding the series on an entirely separate list in the UI.
Being the market leader, Sony will have a much harder time making larger acquisitions than MS did, and this ABV merger didn’t exactly breeze through.
It’s hard to block mergers based on a company involved being a monopoly if none of the companies involved are monopolies or will become monopolies.
Regulators have to come up with a different set of rules to block “large but not monopolistic mergers” without also just effectively protecting the actual leader in a given industry from competition.
That’s not what “Embrace, Extend, Extinguish” means. You just came up with three numbered items to correspond to the fact that there are three words in the phrase.
That applies to open software standards, what does it have to do with buying cash cows?
It has no real meaning anymore. It’s now a phrase people throw around as effectively a meme. You won’t get anything but a wrong answer to this question.
IIRC they did sign the deal that let’s the continue to get releases for a couple more years…
It is ten more years. If Sony isn’t able to come up with a decent alternative in a decade, well, I won’t exactly feel sorry for them.
You have the PSVR2 which is comparably priced but requires a PS5 console. You have the Valve Index which is $1k.
So, it may not be “cheap” but it’s definitely cheaper than some of the alternatives.

Can anyone confirm that my understanding of the source article is correct?
The “Windows 12 may require a subscription” is coming from the fact that the word “Subscription” exists in a Windows config file somewhere?
That seems like a pretty big leap to me. Not that I don’t think it’s impossible that Microsoft would do this, but the evidence here seems thin to say the least.
The competition should be about having the best platform, not exclusive content.
Those both sound like competition to me. What you are really asking for is “I want things to be cheaper” which is a separate and sometimes related issue to competition, but separate nonetheless.
The path to lower prices the way you want would be government-mandated price controls on the industry.
Only problem was that I forgot to get a memory card so I couldn’t actually play the games that my coworker gave me, but hey it works!
That’s an interesting take on “works” for a game console. Being able to play games seems like a pretty important piece.
“Electronic or appliance product” or “product” does not include any of the following:
(i) Equipment or repair parts as defined in Chapter 28 (commencing with Section 22900) of Division 8 of the Business and Professions Code.
(ii) A product or component of an “alarm system” as defined in subdivision © of Section 7590.1 of the Business and Professions Code, including a fire protection system, as defined in the California Fire Code.
(iii) A video game console.
Funny seeing such a specific exclusion being made here.
I’m not really talking about preferences. I’m asking more about the niche that games like Skyrim/Fallout/Starfield fill. If it is so simple to just make “Skyrim but better” or “Starfield but better” then where are all the games from other developers that are just that?
Or from another angle. Where is the Path of Exile for Skyrim?
I don’t know, I’m really interested in all these internet services that are 100% safe from hackers. Sounds like very useful information that should be shared around.
