It's even worse than that. The original days of cable were ad free! That was the whole point! You got away from ads on broadcast tv by signing up for cable. That didn't last long, of course, so it's not surprising to see history repeat itself.

This is actually a pretty decent idea considering what's coming now with AI video. I have no idea if it could be implemented, or if media even cares anymore, but I sure would appreciate it.

I get where you're coming from, and I tried this. The point is to get away from windows, and if the main program I use my computer for lacks essential features that affect my work, then I can't switch.

Honestly, calling people lazy without context just makes you another Linux bro and doesn't help bring people over.

The AAC issue and working directly from a NAS. It's adding a lot to the workload to work around AAC. NAS could be a me issue, but other programs have no issue with accessing it and working directly from it.

Blackmagic please, for the benefit of all editors, make DaVinci Resolve work properly on Linux. I'd switch tomorrow.

You have to keep in mind that the tech at the time was pretty revolutionary, but dated now. The e-ink display was legible in the brightest daylight and it had a battery life of 7-10 days depending on the model. I liked the minimalist styling of it, and hope they continue with a future model.

I've always been curious to know how it would have evolved if it hadn't been killed off. A newer version would hopefully take advantage of color e-ink displays and have some of the features current smart watches have. But honestly, they could make the Pebble Steel again with updated parts and I'd buy it in a second.

I can only hope this new open source project takes off. It was a great watch.
