I noticed it was starting and deleted my account a few years ago.

Proton VPN was garbage for streaming services. I haven’t had problems since switching to Mulvad.

Leaning hard into enshittification, I see…

If you use the terminal and have a tendency to fat finger commands, I would recommend “The Fuck”.

It always makes me smile to type fuck into the terminal. 🙂

I always turn on LUKS during install. The only exceptions are when I’m doing tests of different distros on my machine that I lovingly call “FuckAround”.

It really is the best way to find out.

Mine was that I hate corporations. That’s it. That’s literally all that I needed to figure out Linux.

I follow KDE and Gnome.

#1 was true more in the late 90s to early 00s. The operating system has matured quite a bit since then.

I love Debian, but I hear a lot of people suggesting Linux Mint for new users. If you’re afraid of committing to a change, grab a cheap used system to try it out. Just know that if you have better hardware, itbwill really shine.

I’ve thought they were the same thing all these years.

Do people even need virtual memory these days?

Also, isn’t it harmful to SSDs?

Back inbthe mid 00s, Canonical decided to send our searches to Amazon and show us ads in the system search results.

Debian is the parent of Ubuntu. It’s more stable, and doesn’t have the corporate influence to enshitify it.

I haven’t trusted Ubuntu since the Amazon ad debacle.

Wiped my drive, installed Debian, and haven’t looked back.

Fuck Canonical.

How do we know that this was the actual beginning of the universe?

We know that space is expanding faster than light can travel. How do we know that the Universe isn’t trillions of years old, but we just can’t ever see it because it’s beyond the distance that the faintest detectable light can travel?

I use a credit union, and they obviously don’t care that my login location changes from week to week. If the login comes from outside the US, then I get a flag from the fraud department.

NDIS wrapper. I hated that so much, I bought a natively supported PCMCIA card.

I use Debian for video games. Haven’t had a problem yet.

I get that when I’m usong a VPN. If I turn ot off, Tubular works agaim.

I don’t know. If it matters, back when I used to have google/apple home devices, I would say please and thank you. Google didn’t care. Apple thanked me for being courteous.

Is secure boot required for LUKS?

I’ve been using Tubular to watch YouTube videos anonymously and without ads.
