Would Sauron just be distracted by random hobbit pellets plopping around the shire?

I've had nothing but issues with Microsoft hardware... Even excluding Xbox stuff, my SP4 had major issues with video corruption and hard freezes. Multiple RMA attempts came back defective or damaged, even the first party folio keyboard went bad. These were widespread defects and once warranty was up I was sol.

The only thing that somewhat extended its life before it went full spicy pillow was putting Linux Mint on it with some kernel patches.

Thank God this community exists, but I'll never buy another surface product as long as I live.

Absolutely this. I'm cheap AF and continued to do this, but Samsung has stopped these incentives so now I'm "stuck" on my s21 ultra.

I use quotes because it's an awesome phone and 2 years later it's still crushing everything I throw at it so I have no qualms with hanging onto it.

The difference is that when you buy a vps you aren't handing over all your access creds to random developers.

And "harming lemmy" may be an intent that sparks a DDoS but there are other intentions that should make users wary. Harvesting creds of people who reuse passwords across accounts is an easy example that could have more serious implications to the individual user.

They're the brothers in the Bible who had to make sacrifices to God.

I'm also a former sync user.

Great app but Connect is closing the gap quickly and I'm amazed at how much one dev can pump out, especially being so responsive to the user base 😍

This pyramid is mostly bad argumentative techniques, i.e. arguing in bad faith.

It does very little to explain the structure of good faith arguments, lumping them in together at the top...

Thanks for the explanation. I'm surprised to hear there's no thumbnail since the load time for a lot of these pictures is high enough that I can't imagine it's already cached (alch that may be more of an instance issue).
