> Is this really a huge priority?

It is for people who rent out slices of a computer to a bunch of different people and promise that the script kiddie that lives on the same machine as you can't steal your members-only cat photos (e.g. cloud providers.)

ototoy.jp (requires VPN unless you're in Japan but they don't care where the billing address is.)

I was under the impression (perhaps mistaken) that music you purchased in iTunes had to stay in iTunes. Can I take my files where I please or do they have to reside in the Apple walled garden?

Nope, the only time I discovered music on Bandcamp was when some indie label was selling their whole catalog for a low price and I got the whole bundle. 99% of the time, I knew what I was looking for and came there for the lossless digital releases and/or to support the artist.

Anyone have some good alternatives for downloading loseless and DRM free music from artists?

For Japanese artist I use ototoy.jp but that's a small subset of my library.

Guess I better get what's on my wish list while I can!

Also looking forward to artwork merch but that's still for 7.3 on their shop, maybe it will be updated in a few days?

I'm possibly motivated by different reasons than other users but I think an understated feature of OpenBSD is that it's simple

The unique security features are nice but really there's a lot to say about how simple an OpenBSD system is to use and configure.

> requires logging in again across all of my devices and kids/spouse accounts that require it for purchases.

Do you use your apple ID to log into your kids/spouses devices or do you have some kind of setup where they have their own apple ID but you just login with yours for purchases? Genuinely curious. If it's the latter, I didn't know that was a thing.

Yeah, if you're there you have to at least check it out. though sadly every year the neat tech stuff seems to keep shrinking.

There's tons of hardware that runs perfectly fine on Windows 10 but can't be (officially) upgraded to Windows 11. Even if you meet the TPM requirement some CPUs are not (officially) supported and you can't upgrade . My Lenovo ThinkCenre with an i7 and 32 GBs of RAM is one of them. I have no interest in buying new hardware when what I have is perfectly ample. I'll just switch back to Linux when the clock runs out.

For SSH I prefer blocklistd[0], which sadly is only available on FreeBSD and NetBSD AFAIK, it's a much simpler approach though requires a small patch to any daemons that want support.

I'm probably the minority with this request but: A Sublime Text clone, with many of the same features and at least some level of compatibility with existing packages. That'd be great.

And it's not that I don't want to pay for Sublime, I just want it to work on OpenBSD.

I really want one of these eink monitors but the price has to come down. I totally see the appeal and have lots of use cases in mind but I just can't justify the cost yet.

Same here, the only reason I clicked on the article was to try and find out how they could possibly justify it and then I realized what they meant.

LinkedIn is hot nuclear garbage. Most of the job listings are ghost jobs and the rest are ones I'd not want anyway.

My first iPhone was an iPhone 6. No iPhone since then has added any feature appealing enough for me to upgrade unwillingly.

Whenever it's time to put my old phone out to pasture because (and only because) it's at a point that it's too broken to use or be reliable: I let my wife get whatever the latest iPhone is and I take her old one which lasts me a few years easily.

My "phone" is really just a camera+GPS that my wife sometimes calls me on when she can't find me in a store. I dread typing on it, hell I dread _talking_ on it even.

> Although we know Hacktoberfest t-shirts are loved by the community, producing over 50,000 t-shirts and shipping them around the world has become logistically challenging. Even with the support of external sponsors, almost all of the program’s operating budget in past years has been allocated towards these physical rewards. Furthermore, we’ve run into challenges in many countries with participants being required to pay customs taxes and import duty fees which often exceed the value of the gift itself.
