  • It's been a couple months since I tried it. There were too many dick pics for me. And, really, not enough pictures from creators I know. However, I did get to see a bunch of beautiful photography and a few pet pics that were good.

  • I use Alacritty with bash

  • You can download the Windows ISO from Microsoft. The Windows License information is stored in your BIOS, IIRC

  • Is this actually a thing?

  • This phone looks awesome. I'm going to get it if the Pixel 8 is a dud. Note that it does not work on Verizon, Sprint, or US Cellular.

  • I think it depends on what expectations were.

    You and your friends make a horror movie and it's better than you thought: Hey, that's pretty good.

    Steven Spielberg makes a mediocre horror movie: It was pretty good.

  • It doesn't matter what you say, just say it in a fake British accent. Make sure to awkwardly phase it out over time.

  • Between Adguard Home in my router and the built-in block list, I find that I don't see many ads

  • Alacritty, neovim, qutebrowser here. :) Gotta mention tmux too. And I guess if we're going lower level: OpenSSH & Qtile (Tiling Window Manager)

  • I enjoyed it. I thought Season 2 was meh. But the rest of the show was good.

  • It depends on the VPN. Sometimes there's a "block local network access" while connected. It could be a client setting or a server setting. Additionally, VPNs are all about routing. So you could run into a problem if you connect to a VPN where the remote network is the same as the IP address of the server you're trying to connect to.

    So if it is that you're having a conflict between the remote and local networks overlapping, you could change the IP addresses on your local network. It's probably a good idea not to use the default subnet that your router gives you (like 10.0.0.0 or 192.168.0.0 or 192.168.1.0).

  • I'm running Arch. My laptop (MSI GT76 Titan) has 3 nvme and 1 SATA drive connector. So I have the nvme set up for Linux and the SATA for windows because: why not?

    I mainly use Windows for... nothing these days. I try to remember to boot to it to update it every couple months. But I haven't actually DONE anything in Windows in a while. I use Steam in Linux and play games there like Jedi Survivor, The Last of Us, Stray, Control, Hitman, ... without issue. No need for Windows for me.

  • Heh. I do. But artritis is a bitch

  • You still have to provide some proof that you are who you say you are by publishing a specific webpage on the site that will get the certificate or by publishing a specific DNS record on the domain. Self-signed certs don't have that requirement so people could make certs for google.com if they wanted to.

  • I like Crucial. I take their model number and search on Amazon. Then pick the lowest price.

  • I've got to tell you as a 50 year old: everything hurts -- all the time.

  • Websites like crucial.com let you enter in the details about your computer and will tell you what kind of RAM to get. Crucial has good RAM, but you can still use that information to buy similarly spec'd RAM elsewhere.

  • My grandfather was always "fair to middlin'"
