I used to grab anything I could to read when taking a shit. Even reading shampoo bottle labels. Now I’m here typing this mess to you guys as I take a dump.

I did it a week ago and it was just a case of passing through the video card. I came across a lot of guides and they were all in the CLI. I assume things have improved or maybe it differs per card. I was just using onboard graphics from an N100 CPU.

Dad?

But again it’s only the minority using extensions or actually taking the time to deny cookies.

This banner is the same tactic used by malware. It targets the average Joe that just accepts anything thrown in their face. It’s the same with the cookie popup we see in the EU. People just click accept to get it out their way so they can view the content they came to see.

They pushed me to Linux (Arch btw).

They aren’t targeting people like me though. They are targeting people like my wife that doesn’t read what she clicks and just accepts it.

Microsoft are being really very pushy to get people to use Edge.

Enter the Dragon quote 🙏

I’m all for their cause but they’ve been going about it the wrong way every single time. They do nothing but piss the general public off. The very people you actually need to get on your side.

Indeed this. Plus my minipc has dual ethernet which is handy as I run Proxmox and use the second nic for migration traffic. The mini pc is way better than the Pi for my usage.

Loved the Pi for hosting small services around the house. I’ve just replaced my Pi4 with a N100, 16GB, 512GB SSD mini pc which is so much faster, not to mention cheaper than a Pi5.

Not on an iPhone it cant

I’d suggest uBlock Origin but then they’re running iOS.

I do agree that fdroid is ugly. Droid-ify is so much more pleasing to the eye.

Thanks! I didn’t know about this. I never use audiobooks. Just changed my family plan. £2 is £2!

Oh yes. CRC Error was it?

In the early days of the internet, WinZip was a must have tool. My college had a fast internet connection. I say fast but I bet it was less than 1Mb shared between everyone. Way faster than the 33k modem I had at home.

I used my college connection to download so much and then took it home on floppy disks. For files larger than 1MB I’d use WinZip to split files up.

Wireguard works out of the box for me. I use a docker image.

I disagree. In a business environment it is actually really good, or at least was pre-Azure. I dislike that they are trying to push people to Azure instead of on-prem.

For home use it’s been pretty poor since Windows 8 and seems to be turning to shit since Windows 11.

Windows 11 did one good for me though. It’s been enough to push me to properly give Linux a try again. Proton has been a major step forward as gaming has been the main reason I never stuck. I’m currently spending more time in Arch (btw) than Windows.

I still prefer Chrome over Firefox but I’ve been running Firefox for over a year now and won’t go back to Chrome because fuck Google. Also stopped using Google for searching and not being tracked is very very noticeable.
