24.04 won’t have Plasma 6, but 24.10 will. In other words, fall 2024.

Or you can use KDE Neon, which is basically Ubuntu LTS, but with the newest Plasma.

All of these functionalities can be provided by a simple WebSocket + REST server. The car connects to the WebSocket, and you can access these functionalities from your phone either with WebSockets or regular HTTP requests.

Cheapest servers with backend written in JS can easily handle thousands of WebSocket connections, and written in Go tens of thousands WebSocket connections. They would not ever need like over 100 of these servers GLOBALLY, which would cost them around $3000 monthly.

That’s the price of 60 subscriptions, which is freaking ridiculous.

You realize that maintaining a server that would allow that costs pennies?

You wouldn’t pay $150 for a lollipop, but somehow people think this is ok.

This problem exists exactly because of people like you, thinking it’s OK to pay for the features you already paid for.

You mentioned you changed firewall rules for that device. Any chance you have set outbound rule instead of inbound rule?

Anyway, what’s the output of ip route?

And as always, DRMs fuck only legitimate customers, and pirates can watch anywhere at full quality.

That’s one of the reasons I don’t feel bad about pirating any more. Not even the cost, but the fact that if you pay you’re going to have a worse experience.

There are tutorials on youtube on how to create a VM and set up a firewall for external access.

If you’re lucky enough to successfully create an account on Oracle Cloud, you can also try Oracle Cloud Free Tier. You can have free ARM64 x4 CPU and 24 GiB RAM totally free of charge. There might be problems with availability during VM registration, but there are scripts that automate spamming for checking every 80 seconds.

I’ve been using it for 2 years and it’s great. However be aware that your VM might get erased if you have a free account. That too can be remedied if you update to a premium subscription (You still get Free Tier resources without a charge). Nobody has reported an erased VM on a premium plan yet.

Still, I am pretty sure they can erase it if you do illegal stuff with it. I’ve been using it only to host Minecraft Server, as well as other services using Docker. So far so good.

If you’re trying to self-host http service, you can use cloudflare tunnels.

If you know how to use git, you will know how to use docker (provided you know what you want to do). They are completely different programs, yet you can quickly grasp the other instinctively.

Now, Photoshop and Blender - they are also different programs, but if you know Photoshop, you still need to relearn Blender’s interface completely.

This is why I prefer terminal programs in general. Unless it’s more convenient to use GUi, i.e. Drag&Drop file manager, some git tools etc.

Why do you need Windows VM for developing GUI apps? Last time I used Visual Studio to make GUI app I almost gave up programming, because of how code-generation dependent it was.

For C# you have AvaloniaUI. For cpp you have countless multi-platform GUI toolkits, same for rust, Java has its own toolkits (multi-platform), and finally you can make an Electron/Tauri app.

The way for your desktop to communicate with the hardware.

It used to be X11 - A server-client architecture, which meant your desktop was effectively just a client that told the server what to do. The server was the one doing the drawing

Wayland is just a protocol, defining how programs and desktop should communicate with each other - without a middleman that was X11 server. The desktop does the actual drawing here.

Have an actual sane developer experience? There is a reason why almost every developer that uses Windows actually uses WSL.

Nah. Nvidia is still Nvidia, but 2 years ago or so they finally gave up and started supporting GBM and even opened part of their driver stack.

Some things, like hardware encoder are even easier to set up than AMD’s counterpart. (Mainly because Nvidia proprietary driver being supported better than AMD’s proprietary driver)

It is better than in most languages with exceptions, except from languages like Java, that require you to declare that certain method throws certain error.

It’s more tedious in Go, but at the end of the day it’s the same thing.

When I use someone else’s code I want to be sure if that thing can throw an error so I can decide what to do with it.

What? Pipewire has been working out of the box for like 2 years

You can just as easily have keylogger running in backround as clipboard sniffer.

Browsers don’t have permission to read clipboard, just change them (unless you specifically give them permission to read it).

As you can see no benefits not using PM. It’s in fact safer, because if databade with non-hashed passwords leaks, your password doesn’t because it’s different for every service.

You need to try a lot “plant-based meat” products. Many of them are meh and taste like meat flavored cardboard, but I’ve personally found some that taste waaaay better than meat.

Markdown has code blocks with syntax highlighting.

Except age rating is a joke - especially 18+. I get that many games are violent, contain sex scenes, drugs etc., but in my eyes 18 is a barrier when you become responsible for your actions, which would imply playing 18+ games is dangerous like alcohol and cigarettes, while it’s just a PEGI’s way of saying “Somebody said fuck several times”.

Like Witcher 3 obviously fits into 18+, but not because it’s should be 18+, but we got used to these games being 18+. At the age of 14 in school I was required to read Sapkowski’s novels, but god forbid you play Witcher 3.
