I recall this from around the time I basically gave up dealing with Linux and Nvidia chips. At that time, I felt I couldn't agree more. Has this improved in recent years at all? With Nvidia getting more into data centers as their focus, I figure Linux has to be a focus, no?

This would be a great idea but as I understand it, Android Auto and CarPlay are very explicitly tied into the auto manufacturers systems in a way that would likely require a group that builds the open source mobile auto platform to be certified and integrated with auto manufacturers systems.
This would be costly, and without the initial user base, unlikely to take off as manufacturers don’t like giving their data to other systems. Toyota held out a long time on Android auto for exactly that reason: not wanting Google to get access to their systems.
I like the idea, but I think the only for it to happen would be if an aftermarket headunit manufacturer were to build something that integrates with such a system. But that would be a very small user base and also unlikely to happen.
That looks amazing! Nice work! I have a garden in a relatively small yard that doesn’t even look half as good as yours does.
I seem to be bad at planting veggies in the ground but I found tomato planters I found on Amazon that come with cages integrated and some have hydroponic bases that you only need to fill periodically. Those worked well for me and you might want to check those out if you’re interested. Anyway amazing work! Hope you get some great crops soon!
Yes, exactly my thoughts as well. I’ve noted the following: I started exploring options and landed on Lemmy as many of us did around the time the API changes were announced At that time, there were a lot of test posts here and loads of Reddit complaints. It was challenging to find real content, but it was clear the community and interest was growing.
I continued to open various Lemmy apps over Reddit, but still peaked into my Reddit feed periodically and noticed that Reddit was definitely still alive, with the occasional flare up that made browsing annoying. Not much different than when any other viral topic would take over the top posts everywhere, but more regular and less amusing from an entertainment point of view. Those days I had no problem coming to Lemmy almost all day. But that left me with using Lemmy more and more frequently.
The last couple days, I’ve found that Lemmy is still growing and becoming much more interesting to browse and view, though I definitely see the added complexities and early nature of apps as a limiting factor for the general use at the moment. So going to Reddit now seems to be largely filled with lower effort posts as most users that haven’t migrated are those that felt it was too much work to join a Lemmy community and get reestablished (in my opinion). However, there is still definitely a functional and lively community over there. At least for the time being.
Whenever I check in on Reddit, I am still using third party apps. Those apps will go dark July 1, so if that actually happens, I likely will stop checking in. And I have no idea how many else will be doing the same.
This was the only reason I used Zune music back in the day. Then they discontinued this feature but I had windows phone so Xbox music wasn't bad. Plus they had these promos where I was able to get several years of service for extremely cheap. Then they shutdown the service all together but offered existing subscribers a refund in the form of Microsoft store credit. They gave me fill value of all the years of service so I bought of Surface Pro with an extended warranty. Then that died and they refused to honor the warranty as they dragged on my complaint until the warranty expired and didn't resolve the issue, ultimately claiming I'm not under warranty.
I'm quite removed from Microsoft products now....
