It's done as a whitelist and they issue devices.

Yeah. The school I go to uses MAC based blocking on their network, and it is otherwise an open network.

You don't need a specific distro to compile your code. Just install gcc or javac or whatever you need.

If it is a newer Mac (Apple silicon), asahi is your only option that I know of. It is good but idle and sleep power management leave something to be desired. If not, I would recommend debian. It is stable, so you don't have to worry about an update breaking it right before a class or anything like that.

To add to that, (or maybe you said this, forgive me if so I am sick RN and my brain is not working optimally), there's no such thing as a trusted network, and many ways to trick devices into connecting. Evil twins are clones of nearby networks that you will connect to instead. There's also an attack where your device is actively sending out requests to connect to saved networks, and an attacker can simply respond to that request to get you to connect, and authenticate regardless of what password you send.

Wow, activitypub got multiverse federation working?

Well it isn't really CPU vs GPU. It is integrated vs dedicated GPU. A CPU certainly can transcode, but not well. A lot of CPUs have integrated graphics which can handle transcoding quite well. I went with an Intel arc a380 because I know quite a lot of people could hit it under some circumstances. For most people though, I would recommend an Intel CPU with quicksync. What you really should spend your budget on IMO is as much storage as you can.

If you are made out of matter stay away from manjaro. Other than that I agree, and would recommend debian slightly over fedora but that is just personal preference. Also I feel like opensuse deserves an honorable mention. Maybe not tumbleweed, but leap could be suitable for a new user and yast rocks.

Edit: Also vscodium can be good alternative to vscode. It is vscode without Microsoft's tracking, but an exact copy otherwise.

I don't have this problem exactly, but what I would recommend is putting it in a specific separate library. You could even set it up so only your mother's account can access it, and you never have to see it, or you could have it visible but never go to it.

Slow, limited options, but great anonymity and free.

You must be better at searching. I will take a look. Thank you very much.

I'm not sure what you mean. I need to view the video but I can't. I am just looking for alternative viewing methods.

It is on a streaming service. They played it in class but I didn't hear enough.

That seems a bit unfair to anarchists.

What about a distro that artificially raises the switching cost?

I know there are valid use cases for that much, I just always like to check that they didn't just see an LTT video and think they need way more than they do.

Damn, what do you need that much RAM for?
