Why is it that people think Linux distros are for programmers or tech people only? This is the reason why we don’t get many people on Linux distros.

Holy fuck this is great. I’ll be using this thanks.

Spend my time in TF2. By the time I become aware of the time, it’s already 8pm.

I’d like to drop this amazing blog here: https://digdeeper.club/articles/email.xhtml#protonmail

I don’t think there is any good one. For privacy, you can install Google Gallery then disable network access to it.

When I think of india, I think of scam centers disguised as tech support.

They could have self hosted a Forgejo instance but they really went with MS GitHub. Kind of sad.

A simple task such as sending a request with GPS information constantly won’t do shit. You’d be surprised how much android sends in the background.

Yes. I am. At least nice to people who are also nice to me.

It’s not really designed to solve anything. It just exists. The cool thing about it is advertisements are not possible natively. There is also no JS. So no creepy ass trackers. It’s basically like the very early days where JS or CSS was not a thing. Just markdown. With the additional security and privacy stuff of the modern web like encryption.

Gemini protocol rocks.

Discord has an alternative called Revolt that is open source. It has all the premium features in discord for free, but is still in early stages I’d say.

I first tried a linux distro in 2020. At that time, I honestly just wanted the customizations I’ve seen in unixporn and mindlessly tried arch because of the memes. I followed some youtube tutorial to manually install it and of course fucked up my boot partition that also had my windows boot stuff. After installing arch, I tried booting windows to move things to an external drive but windows would not boot up. I paniced and searched for hours on the web trying to fix it before giving up and just wiping the drive entirely. I was pretty much a noob and didn’t know anything at all about linux at that time. Then I tried installing arch again tomorrow, this time I got everything right and I didn’t need to deal with dual booting as windows was no more on my drive. The system was pretty stable for a few weeks before I guess I tried customizing KDE or something and completely broke my system. Of course the dumbass me again just wiped off the whole drive all my files gone. After that I installed windows again and no longer try to install any linux distro again until last year where I instead read the arch wiki and I had more knowledge in general about these things, so in 2023 I wanted to try installing a linux distro yet again. This time I went with ubuntu. It looked nice and stable but it honestly just sucked. Snaps indeed were problematic and I never got myself to like them, even today. So I tried pop. This one was nice and I actually used it for a few months. GNOME wasn’t the best DE for me but it just worked. I wanted to go a little deeper into linux at some point and I, you guessed it, tried installing arch. Everything went smoothly and I also installed it manually without any yt videos but just the arch wiki. I had some problems understanding some stuff in it but I eventually got it to work. And until today, everything still works fine for me in arch. I can fix some issues I encounter without the help of the internet. So I’ve been using arch for a year now. Windows is also no longer installed. I migrated everything to arch. I don’t really use any professional tools at least like adobe so I have no problem with using arch. All of the games I played on windows function either better or the same on linux thanks to proton. Some games also have native versions so yeah.

I wouldn’t really defend cloudflare here. Sure, the tier might have been a bit cheap for a big online casino with high traffic. However, cloudflare should have set limits in place or warn the casino beforehand and not just surprise businesses with great amounts of builtup “damage” money if the business was causing their network to “struggle”. The call they made with the CF sales team about the serious issue wasn’t a warning at all. According to the blog, they just asked if the casino considered the enterprise tier. Nothing about their networks struggling is said at all. Additionally their future calls were misleading and just tricks to get the casino to talk with the sales team. I’m not sure how CF’s fooling the casino here can be seen as something reasonable at all.

They shouldn’t call it unlimited if they can’t handle high amounts of traffic.

Just a few weeks ago, Primeagen read a blog about how Cloudflare threatened an online casino with taking their sites down if they didn’t pay them 120k$ in a day.

OOP is nice. Why do people hate it?
