absolutely fucking cooked

i bought some amazon streaming device, and once i realised the nature of connectivity for ios devices had to return it instantly. So tiresome.

the ux that awaits us in the land of open networks is so fucking glorious

LocalSend is pretty good

Can't get it to work when running ProtonVPN (even if both devices are on the same VPN server)

👀

Or maybe that was Pairdrop? Need to check again and test LocalSend

I just spent the last hour debugging a Linux user / permissions problem.

On the one hand, maybe I wouldn't have to deal with this on a closed system.

On the other, as soon as I finished, I was so grateful for Linux. I was grateful for the fact that I know that there is nothing in this computer that I can't change or need permission to access or edit.

Where would we be without Linux? It's really the base we are all working on.

Love open. Love Linux.
