There's no stigma with the terminal, the terminal isn't bad, I love the terminal.
However, it's not grandma friendly. It never will be. You need to think less about your preferences and more about a truly novice user. Most people don't want to tinker with their machines, they just want it to work.
It's not exactly a fair comparison, the tweaks in the bottom panel aren't necessary for most users to do, yet a new user to Linux will need to get over a learning curve to do fairly basic tasks.
My litmus test for when Linux will be "ready" is can you do everything you need to do without using the terminal. So far I've yet to see a distribution that has achieved this.
RuPaul had come under fire previously for being anti-trans, but it's okay because they apologized on Twitter by posting the wrong flag (literally a flag for trains - and I'm not making that up).
Regardless of your stance on the issue of a bookstore with a no-banning-books mission not banning books, RuPaul clearly is not an ally and this isn't surprising.
If I'm buying a sword, even if that sword is going to spend 99% of its time on a wall or in a display case, I still want to know that it feels good to hold, otherwise what's the fucking point of owning a sword.
If I see a sick in the street, I'm going to do the exact same thing, I ain't no expert, I just like to experience a little joy in my life where I can.
I remember this as well! Family guy was "Larry and Steve", different names but clearly the same show. There was also cow and chicken, which I wasn't a fan of but the rest of the shows you mentioned were great.
I think it's more like pepsi issuing a product recall for something that has been accidentally left on the side of the road. You know you should not be drinking it anyway, but you also know someone would try it.
I don't think your second point is correct. You can still embed analytics on a static website. I believe you're conflating it with your first point by assuming that scripts are disabled on the browser side, in which case it's a bit of a redundant point.
I also think it's a bit unrealistic in this day and age to run with scripts completely disabled. I know it sucks, but we need better ways of protecting our privacy and disabling all scripts is a bit of an extreme measure given so much of the modern web relies on it.
The barrier to entry for IRC is very high for non technical users. It's also archaic, has little to no customisation and can be difficult to moderate at high volumes.
I'm not defending discord here, but the IRC comparisons are silly.
You can shove most services behind cloudflare's CDN with a bit of jiggery pokery. I've used netlify + cloudflare's free tiers to great success a few times now.
The guy above you gives great advice. Set up SWAG, then the only ports you're exposing are 443.
Once you have that set up, look at adding something like authelia. This will give you 2FA on top of those apps meaning even if someone guesses the password and the URL to access them, they still won't be able to.
I appreciate what this project is doing. I've already got my setup configured using the trash guides, with recyclarr pulling in the latest config data for it. Is there a benefit to switching to Dictionarry, anyone know?
That's fine, but if one of your employees comes up with a revolutionary product that makes billions and you choose not to compensate him in any meaningful way, don't then get surprised when they leave to join another company and definitely don't sue them for doing so
You legally own what they produced, but you don't own the individual.
