I'd like to move off from the shackles of the Google menace and transferring my Gmail related accounts over including steam but I'd like some solid advice of any well regarded and better alternatives (including open source if that is possible)

I did search but was unsure of what was best as I did hear some shoddy things about Proton.

Do you know anything that could be the "aegis 2fa" of email providers?

Thank you and have a good day/night.

 

My favourite part of modern history is the cold war, my country of choice would be the U.S.S.R

My reasons are simple:

  • They sent the first man into space and sent Sputnik which sent the USA into a space chasing frenzy that made moon discovery possible.

  • Their flag, whilst simple like the PRC, is iconic in both memes but also infamy amongst Eastern European people as a sign of the historical power they wielded over half of Europe. I also just think it's look cool.

  • Some of their structure sort of lives on in the modern era such as the PRC's Politburo basically being a chinese version of the soviet one

  • I quite like a lot of the military hardware they made like the T 72 which is my favourite tank.

  • The soviets are responsible for Tetris!!!

What is your favourite historical country? It can be ancient, medieval, colonial era or cold war era etc.

Have a good day/night!

 

This is gonna sound like a troll post but i assure you it is not.

I don't have a coding background but I've used Teams in a lot of workplaces and really only encountered like 2 issues entirely.

Either I got seriously lucky or it was before enshittification.

Why do you yourself dislike it? Is it UI? Performance?

I should also say I use Teams for basic purposes like messaging and uploading files, I literally don't touch anything else and performance hadn't been an issue. (Likely because I've been given thicc-ass workstations in the past)

The first Klonoa game on PS1. Always gave me nostalgia that one and Spyro 1 as well, truly nostalgic games of that era

The trailer was pretty cool and I liked the bigger screen. I can't wait to see more of what they will reveal.

And backwards compatible games? That's gonna be a money saver for sure!

My least favourite day has to be Wednesday because it's still in the middle of the week, you get two more days to battle through and it just feels like it won't ever end.

Monday I can deal with because you know it's only the start, Tuesday it's meh for me.

Thursday I'm okay cos I'm gearing up for Friday and the weekend.

What about you?

A harem of goblin chicks. Simple as.

 

My favourite chocolate is a british classic, Terry's Chocolate orange.

You get a ball of individual chocolate slices and it tastes pretty nice with that tangy orange after taste.

It's often pretty cheap to get and a staple for many peoples birthdays and celebrations in the UK, you'll always find one on a table or in your kids gift bag.

What about you? What is your favourite and why in the country?

So...you go play them too? Yikes ...

 

As a British lad, I've been keeping tabs on the news about this guy and the wide support he's getting.

With so much support, surely the public will get him out of jail just to spite the bastard rich kids and their CEO baron fathers?

The Man who was shot allowed a massive corporation to dangle its strings over people's lives, medication being pulled away which is horrifying to me who uses the NHS as my primary medical service for hearing.

What do you think? Will Luigi "The CEO Reaper" Mangione ever get out of prison?

My favourite faction has to be the funny greenskins. The orks are just so chaotic and funny to me, I never get tired of seeing them on screen.

I mean, a bunch of cockney bois slapdashing shit together that shouldn't work, and ACTUALLY being a threat is a interesting concept to me.

And that they love the simple life of krumpin some gitz.

What about you, you zoggin meatsack, what's your faction of choice and why?

 

My favourite generation is the one I have nostalgia for and the first one i played, Gen 3

Ruby and Sapphire i think had really good pokemon designs especially my favourite legendary Groudon, he looked metal as fuck on my copy of Ruby. I enjoyed the soundtrack from the GBA version and matched the anime based from it, Pokemon Advance.

What is your favourite generation and why? What details makes it stand out for you?

Are the Jedi assholes? (self.asklemmy)
submitted 2 months ago by Tekkip20 to c/asklemmy
 

Come to think of it, the Jedi are kinda dicks, they prevented anakin becoming a master despite his obvious talented skills in saber combat and his power in the force.

Not to mention, lore wise they let mundi have relations with his family where as it would've been a kick out for anakin.

Lastly, the jedi were sorta arrogant for thinking that nothing was wrong or that they were perfect despite having literal counterarguments from rebellious masters, Qui Gonn being a good example of somebody smelling the bullshit that the jedi were involved in.

So my fellow sith lords and jedi knights, what say you?

It comes down to this, the heavyweight desktop championship between two powers in the Linux world.

In the blue corner, we have the mighty KDE, KDE comes with a wealth of customization options and good features with every update. It serves a nice alternative to windows 10 or 11s desktop and itself as an OS.

KDE has got so good that even legendary distro, Fedora, wishes to use it in its dealings.

In the grey/black corner, we have GNOME, This is a heavy distro with some ram usage, but it strives to be a simple desktop for usage and has had some good features every new version it comes packaged in as well.

GNOME has had a long history much like KDE, But controversial changes from its older brother.

However.. big name distros like Ubuntu have used it across millions of machines in different sectors.

What desktop do you favour and why? Explain your thoughts.

Round 2... GO!

XFCE Vs MATE (self.linux)
 

Ding Ding Ding

In the blue corner, weighing at 400MB ram or less in usage. XFCE with a easy to use UI and light footprint. It has a good file manager and pretty much is the go to standard if you want a cinnamon windows like desktop but less weight for old machines and netbooks.

In the green corner, the ancestor of Gnome 3, born out of hatred for its future counterpart, we have MATE. MATE is also a lean desktop and is easily customizable using different panels if you were a mac, windows or unity desktop user. Without bias I exclusively use this on Ubuntu MATE for a laptop between me and my brother.

Which contender in the desktop ring do you prefer? Why? What's the positives and negatives for you?

Round 1, GO!

Mirko from the popular My Hero Academia anime/manga series.

She doesn't take crap from anyone and fearlessly goes into battle.

Apologies but I am not american so I don't know where this strange land of Nebraska is to

Dear God... we've been lied to this whole time

Bit rude, Whilst I understand tech changes and evolves, some are literally the Just Works meme and don't need to be rapidly changed.

Is OpenRC meant to be faster than systemD as a process system? I've been thinking of spinning up some non systemD distros like Artix on a VM on a mini DELL tinbox.

I will say though, I am not an advanced Linux user as the distros I've used were :

Ubuntu Endeavour OS SpiralLinux (Easy Mode Debian)

Would I need to make configurations in openrc or can it just run without messing with it like systemD?

Thank you

You're right I did, I completely forgot about them and it's down to the fact that I've not seen a single LC in my city, I should mention the city isn't like London or Manchester in terms of size.
