While true, not all vendors support Linux, which is the case for myself.

If you know they’re on your ass delete all online presence, it’s not that hard. Taunting the courts and/or Nintendo about this will just make you more miserable because eventually the court will grant the exception to serve your family members instead.

The phrase makes me cringe, the message doesn’t. I think it’s because I’ve seen it being misused by people who don’t know what they’re talking about, most likely.

My company bought 5 snapdragon laptops to test - ended up returning all of them. They’re not bad per se, the operating system that they’re expected to run is. Windows for ARM has a looong way before it is production ready. Their biggest hurdle is the translation layer (similar to Rosetta 2 which works near flawlessly) that is so bad that if your program doesn’t have a native ARM build, you’re better off not even bothering. I’ve seen an article indicating that they improved it a lot in the current Windows insider build but we’ve already returned the laptops and switched over to AMD. In my opinion if Microsoft truly cares about Windows on ARM then it will be ready in a year or so. If they don’t.. probably 2-3.

As per Linux, it works great, but that’s because most of the packages are FOSS and so compiling them for ARM doesn’t take a lot of effort. Sadly, Security at our company insists we run Windows so that ~~spyware~~ antivirus software can be installed on all end user machines.

Mate, that’s a parody account. He’s poking at so called “LinkedIn Hustlers” who have get rich quick schemes that are either ineffective, illegal or just asshole-ish in nature.

You only need about 15% for commercial support.

Me and my sister call each other “trash” (sounds better in our language). We constantly make jokes about the other being trash (I.e “I gotta take the trash out” with a subsequent “why do you need to go out?”) etc.

We’re in our 20s

Don’t let it fool you that people aren’t suffering. A lot of people are socially compelled into buying gifts for Xmas and whatnot, even when they can barely afford it. Also, price of just about everything went up so naturally the amount we spend does too.

I checked my store and there are Canonical keys there, but I don’t think that’s on every computer.

SpotEevee on iOS, can confirm that it still works.

Edit: the article finally loaded and saw that they’re fighting APKs. Good luck to them but iirc so far no developer was able to defeat piracy on Android.

How many distros support secure boot out of the box? IIRC it’s only Ubuntu and RHEL. The rest require hacking some shit together with self signed keys.

How do you assure age without personal identification? It’s funny that they signed on the bill but only know how they don’t want to force it, without any ideas or alternatives. I got no love for Meta but I’m really wondering what can you possibly implement?

Oh and also, VPN. GG.

Looking for a studying mate (self.learn_programming)
 

Hey everyone, I'm looking for a studying mate so that we can compare each other's code etc. I have a course from work for JS (it's not mandatory) but I feel like if it's any attempt I tried in the past, without anyone to study with I will mostly end up neglecting in a few days.

Which is why I'm reaching out to hopefully find someone who is on the same technical level as me to enrich our knowledge. A bit about myself: I'm a full time SysAdmin with some background knowledge in bash/python/powershell (not making any GUI apps or anything like that, just work related scripts) and I self host a few applications for myself and therefore I don't consider myself a complete beginner.

Private message me, I'm available on both Discord and Matrix.

As the title suggests, I'm in the market for a vacuum that doesn't phone home, not even for initial setup (if possible). This is my first time stepping into home automation so I'm not familiar with the various FOSS projects in the space. I'm comfortable with modding/rooting the vacuum so throw your suggestions, I'll research them.
