Also, I would consider some legitimate licenced software more of a malware than a cracked one. If your software forces always-online license, comes with annoying startup processes, nagging ad screens, etc, it's malware. And if there's a cracked version without those things, I'll take the cracked version any day.

Actually, a good advice in general though. Not many marriages last when the woman is considerably wealthier or older. Not sure about taller, I've seen a lot of successfull exceptions.

So, I used Homebox for a few days now. I like the simplicity of it and I like the direction they're going. However, there are quite a few bugs and data loss issues, it's not ready for production yet. The thing is, these issues should be so easy to fix (it's a simple CRUD app) that it makes me doubt the dev skills and possibility of other issues I haven't discovered yet.

  • The purchase date just increments or decrements by one day after editing an item
  • When editing an item the notes/description fields show the data from the previously edited item, causing you to overwrite data

These two issues alone made me go back to my spreadsheet for now (good thing I kept a backup). I simply don't trust the app to keep my data intact.

Firgirl repacks are a godsend. Just being able to not download the languages you don't need is amazing, all games should allow that by default. Why should I download extra 50GB of content in languages I won't use?

Not only do I prefer separate db for each stack, ideally the db and app are in the same container. Fewer containers to manage and makes the app nice and self-contained.

HA is geared towards selfhosted, locally controlled stuff (zwave, ZigBee, mqqt, local WiFi, etc). Because the cloud and privacy invasion is the mainstream, HA may require a bit more tweaking and technical knowledge to get up and running.

With that said, once you get it to how you want it, it's been working rock solid for me for a few years now. I've built my house around HA automations and can't imagine living without it.

That's the point. If people don't find it important, then it's not. Who else should decide if not the people?

Yeah, Amcrest NVR software sucks. Reliable cameras though.

Reolink or Amcrest or any other Ethernet hardwired ones with NVR that you can host in your house. No WiFi and no third-party/cloud storage ones like Ring or Nest.

Rolls off the tongue, doesn't it?
