I don’t listen to podcasts but to answer this question
But since I am paying for Spotify I am expecting not to have to listen to any ads.
Companies are forced to increase revenue every year. It means the amount of crap will just keep on increasing.
Mostly because of the amount of good quality content. But as I said, I’ve moved to radarr/sonarr so I interact with less and less.
There is this torrent site I use that likes to use javascript to redirect to various malicious websites on every single click. After reaching the desired amount of clicks, it start behaving like a normal, “legit” website. Just of out curiosity I checked few other torrent websites and got the same result. It got so annoying that I’m using radarr and sonarr to look for torrents.
I’m a pretty good cook with a focus on bread making. I’ve been working on a perfect pizza recipe for years. I always have a frozen pizza dough in case of an emergency :)
My perfect pizza is thin, with mozzarella cheese in the crust, made on a pizza iron cast plate (way better than pizza stone) - I don’t have a pizza oven yet.
Ingredients from the bottom - pizza dough, tomato sauce (with basil, oregano and garlic), cheese (mozzarella, parmesan, cheddar), red onion, ham, mushrooms, a little bit of cheese, oregano and jalapenos.
As for the store/take out pizza - I will never eat frozen market pizza and most of the global franchises are at best mediocre. I have few local places I like to order pizza from. They are good enough but still I prefer my own pizza.
I know what dns poisoning is but it usually happens on so called legit sites. Pirate sites serve you malware out of the box.
Somehow “legit” sites won’t try to install malware on my laptop. So, I take more regular ads over piracy crap.
It’s a complex and polarising issue. The main problem is that some, sometimes most, of immigrants don’t want to assimilate. They are creating ghettos, don’t respect local laws. Other issue is that governments prefer to spend tax payer money for accommodating immigrants instead of solving nation’s issues.
I wouldn’t limit immigration per se. I would limit unchecked illegal immigration and spend more money on assimilating immigrants that want to contribute to a country they moved into.
Yes, I do. I’m a devops engineer and even “coding camp devs” have problems understanding what I do for a living.
I think you answered your own question. You asked about “retard”, not about R-word. Some snowflakes will get offended on behalf other people but normal people will just acknowledge rude language and move on.
Flatpak is not the answer here. For example, flatpak version of codium doesn’t recognise terminal settings out of the box. Since such trivial thing is a problem, image how difficult it would be to use it with various file systems, sync options, etc.
If it’s a motivation issue, you will need to figure it out on your own. I could give you some advice but motivation depends on a specific use case. If you want I can share what motivates me but there’s no guarantee it will work for you.
As for getting back on a tech horse, there’s a trick I’ve been using every time I was learning a new thing and it worked every single time. I start with a project idea. I write down the major goals I want to achieve and start working on it. At first I do the “quick start” adjusted to fit my project. It usually ends up with a working proof of concept and a list of things I don’t know/understand. Next, I learn about the those unknowns and update the project with what I have learned. This raises more unknowns which leads to more things to learn about. After few iterations, when I’m happy about the project, I start a new, more complex project. And so on.
This is the scene and the title seems familiar. Thanks!
Lol, those kids will more stupid than home schooled covid kids.
Thanks for reminding me, there’s also " supporting" linux community…
Are your specific issues a reason normal users shouldnt use Linux? No
I cannot agree. Most of the users would be upset about bluetooth dropping connection or constant issues after running updates.
Your comment is a perfect Linux answer - it works on my computer :) And I don’t mean it as an insult. The problem here is that Linux, despite of all its advantages, is not for a global consumer.
I think, you should keep these two things (messing with containers accessing GPU and “just play a game”) separate. I mean on separate boxes. Because now you can’t “just play” because you’ve been elbows deep in OS internals. You can’t take apart your fridge and then expect it to just cool the water the next day
I agree, that’s a valid point. But, I had a clean system, prepared for a normal user (clean install, official repositories, etc. And still GPU drivers refusded to work. I have covered all basics before I asked for help and even I got some good advice that worked, I ended up in the same place.
Then I’m guessing these might need some KDE envs
True, but sill for a regular user it looks like “Linux is ugly”
Ah, you’re trying to breach the non-open wall. Is there an app on i* that allows you to set up an ftp/http file sharing server on the device? You probably could set it up as rclone upstream
I know too well the unbreakable apple garden. And I don’t mind tinkering with it but again, we are at the regular user level, that wants things just to work.
Privacy means that no one can see your data, and only you can decide who can see it. Anonymity means that everyone can see your data but no one can match you with the data.
As for the question, yes, I would more than happy when people could understand the risk of giving up the privacy. But I’m afraid that not many people would understand the message carried by those books.
Corporations need to make profit somehow. I wouldn’t be surprised if in a year or two Spotify would introduce payed plan with ads.
