@bender No I meant like a "savings account" π€£ You guys (us) are lucky I guess? A savings account here in Oz barely gets you 0.35%pa to 1.5%pa depending on how much money you have in it (0-$10k, $10-20k, $20-$30k, up to $50k)

Made this awful mistake of not doing pre-prep work before going away on our next camper trip (now). Discovered this morning that some (idiot) person had turned off the power to the camper trailer and the battery was basically dead. I just hope it's not "dead dead". We plan to leave after 4hrs of Bulk Charge from the mains power and it's internal battery charger and _hope_ for the best. I'm also brining a spare 12.8V LifePo4 battery that is basically full to power the fridge, just in case. Fark I'm an idiot π€¦ββοΈ

@mckinley He likes it enough which is good. The painful part is _some_ OSS software just really sucks ass π’ He's found it particularly hard to find a decent "document" editor/tool he likes. He's stuck with Abiword for now, but it's not the most polished ir easiest to use. It also saves things in a really weird non-portable? format?

@mckinley Well yes, true, but not my primary point. Microsoft really needs to pull their head out of their ass. Toyota, BMW, Samsung and even Apple to some extent. Companies need to understand a basic economic rule: If a customer buys your product X, they really don't expect to have to pay for (useless) service Y in order to use product X. I'm looking at you BMW and Toyota, both have attempted to do this and somewhat failed at a consumer level. I wonder why π€¦ββοΈ
Now Microsoft?! C'mon. For fuck's sake. If I buy a new "today" computer of some kind. I expect to be able to use it "offline" if I want. I'm not going to be forced into paying for a subscription or handing over all my personal information to some stupid tech company that has no business whatsoever treating me as "their product".

@lyse It's just a simple config file subscriptions.yaml for me and the program run on a cron. This basically lets me subscribe to, download and keep in sync various channels I'm interested in and store them wherever I want. The nice thing is the output format / presets are done in such a way as to support media servers like Plex or Jellyfin out-of-the-box.
