Good riddance, you won't be missed, make sure the door hits you on the way out.

I'd be interested in helping with some programming. Maybe a short prerecorded show, that would be cool to get involved.

Luxury pickups are such a stupid class of vehicle.

That's really cool, I used to listen to radio a bunch back in the day, maybe I'll start again.

What model is it?

[–] Lettuceeatlettuce@lemmy.ml 8 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Pretty cool little setup

Valve doubling down on Linux as the default OS on the Steam Deck was such a great decision. It obviously has given them a massive competitive edge. Windows has become so horribly bloated, and Microsoft has almost zero interest in making it run more efficiently.

Oh no. You either die the hero, or...

Oof, cringe.

The company doesn't care about you. The company doesn't care about you. The company doesn't care about you.

In my early teens, I got really into computers, built my first PC when I was about 13, started learning Windows batch scripting and using GameMaker to make goofy PC games.

Along the way, I found Trinity Rescue Kit and was also introduced to Fedora Core by a nerdy guy who worked at my local YMCA.

I didn't actually enjoy it too much back then, so I left it alone for years until about 5 years ago when I started to get back into the free software movement and related interests.

I've been 100% on Linux for about 4 years now and never looked back.

Dang, another thing I'll have to change in the kitchen now (-_- )

Although switching from Teflon and other non-stick pans and skillets has been nice.

 

Does anybody have suggestions for an online service that prints things like business cards, brochures, and pamphlets?

If not FOSS, I would like to find a company online that has principles that align with positive things like workers rights, locally owned, sustainable, etc.

Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks!

 

Is there a copyleft equivalent for trademarks? I'm thinking of starting a project with distinct branding but I want everything to be based in FOSS principles.

 

Just found out that my current car will die any day now due to a known defect. It's out of warranty and I have no money to replace it right now.

I've been cursed with car problems my whole life, no matter how well I take care of them, I keep getting screwed.

All of the cars have been Fords because I always heard they were generally dependable and cheap to repair/upkeep, but so far they have all failed me.

What cars do y'all recommend? What cars do you have that just won't give up the ghost no matter how old/beat up they get? If your life depended on your car lasting as long as possible, what car would you drive?

I want whatever car I get next to last me 10-20 years. I want to be that person posting a picture of the odometer hitting 300k miles. I also don't care much about features, reliability is key.

 

Just making sure I'm not missing something obvious:

Self-hosted Linux VM with protonVPN and QBitorrent installed on it.

QBittorrent networking bound only to ProtonVPN's virtual interface with killswitch and secure core enabled.

Auto updates enabled and a scripted alert system if ProtonVPN dies. Obviously everything with very secure unique passwords.

Is this a safe setup to run 24/7 to torrent and seed with?

Are there any significant risks I'm missing? Thanks, fellow sea salts!

 

Just started using AnySoftKeyboard and I'm loving it so far. But I want to know if it is actually private and safe to use.

Thanks!
