Lets see, since the goal is to prevent webscaping all these should work: paywalls, account only acsess, text obferscation (e.g. using a custom font that maps letters randomly to other ones so it looks fine but to a webscraper it looks like gibberish), HTML obferscation (inserting random characters in the HTML then hiding them using CSS) and many more.

3 to 4 years is not old

Huh, nice. I got the macbook air secondhand so I thought it was older. Thanks for the suggestion, I'll try mistralAI next, perhaps on my phone as a test.

I can already locally host a pretty decent ai chatbot on my old M1 Macbook (llama v2 7B) which writes at the same speed I can read, its probably already possible with the top of the line phones.

Let's see: Unintentionally making a proxy accessible to anyone online

Accidentally deallocating an ext4 partition and then having to run testdisk on it

Trying to manually create a grub entry and corrupting the bootloader

Installing a arch derivertive and having it silently overwrite grub

Installing puppy Linux and then trying to get it to use apt

Incorrect use of ppa's on mint resulting in very old packages being installed

And many others besides

Meen Jan, the open-source ChatGPT alternative

Yes, the article is pretty good

the idea sat better when I couldn't think it through

That's what made your comment entertaining to think about

How would you suggest doing that and what purpose would it serve?

Yes, if you want an alternative that supports more phones, look into Calyx OS

Upsides: Everything just works, no google tracking, creating a google account is optional and its easy to setup

Downsides: You aren't able to automatically backup the internal storage of apps without a lot of work (external files such as photos and documents are fine though)

I've been using it for about 1.5 years, I would recommend using it if possible

Words change meaning, the acronym PC has become a shorthand that refers to all computers now, not just personal ones.

Tools for backing up servers already exist: https://github.com/Tyrrrz/DiscordChatExporter But unfortunately discord can't be easily scraped in one coordinated attempt unlike reddit due to the massive number of private servers and existing verification/anti-bot mechanisms. As a result, only the communities that have data hoarders will be actually archived.

Because Gui's don't show advanced options and so I know/understand exactly what is being done. (e.g. I would always use apt over mint's package store so I could see what it did, how much time I had left, download multiple applications at once and see if the package made a random config file somewhere)

Personally I'm doing well, I hope you are to for being concerned with others wellbeing. May you enjoy your holidays kind stranger.

Have you actually had any form of friendship or relationship with a women in the past couple of years?

I've had that sub blocked for so long I forgot it existed

I got this incredibly busted hand-me-down that was having issues running windows, so I installed Linux mint on it and then distro hopped until I started daily driving arch on a new machine.

Ublock origin and Facebook Container are a good start. I would recommend having a look through the most upvoted posts of this sub as well.

Running dd on the wrong partition on multiple occasions, wiping my OS

Hense why its a good idea to enable auto renewal or set a reminder

12 dollars? Just buy a .site doman from namecheep for $2 instead. You are guarantied to afford 6 times the normal level of hopes and dreams that way (/s for the second half, but this is what I do for my site)
