  • Yes, and also Phoronix, LWN.net, GamingOnLinux, Hack-a-day, and a few others that give me good, content. It's the least I can do.

  • Also your DNS traffic will leak what you are doing.

    Just follow the most upvoted answer and keep personal stuff on your personal PC or mobile if you want to avoid trouble.

  • The Debt.

    A Mossad team is tasked to retrieve a Nazi war criminal that is living in East Germany and get it to Israel.

    I would recommend it.

  • I can hear this picture.

  • Tidal. Higher quality audio is the main reason. I got tired of hearing Spotify's muddled compressed sound and waiting for them to release a higher quality plan.

  • You are not wrong, it is within human nature to seek validation for their actions. Some people came here expecting a mass migration from Reddit that did not exactly happen because inertia is a powerful force in human behavior. So some people are sour about it, it's understandable.

  • Skyrim SE, yet again. At this point it feels like a second job.

  • True, but most people don't sandbox their games, and while a userspace binary can't usually get root privileges, it doesn't need it to exfiltrate their summer holiday pics or health bulletin.

    A good first step to mitigate this is to use separate gaming and serious accounts.

  • While I understand and empathize with your dislike of proprietary blobs (fuck you, NVIDIA), every game is a huge blob unless you're playing FOSS games exclusively.

  • Manjaro on my gaming PC, Xubuntu on a couple of lab PCs, Haiku on a very old PC, windows 11 at work with Xubuntu on a VM.

  • It will. Keep in mind that, depending on the type of job, you'll have to keep learning new tech just to keep up: virtualization, containers, orchestrators, automation, backups, logging, auditing, scripting and God knows what else. It's a good starting point to get you the jobs that the Windows crowd won't touch because of the command line.

  • Portal / Portal 2

    "Science Is Fun" is a great track, as are the end songs "Still Alive" and "I Want You Gone".

  • Seems to me you're on a good path. Keep it up.

  • Maybe you should read up on stoicism.

    Allowing someone else's action control your actions is a massive waste of time, let alone a great way to attract trouble.

  • I remember the scene where Sir Humphrey, explains why the UK must be inside the EEC in order to make a mess out of it. So good...

  • I must rewatch this, I feel I was too young to get most of the more subtle humour when I first watched it.

  • I have something like that running Haiku. Try it, you'll be surprised.

  • I played it for like an hour or so, but it didn't click either. I'll give it another go one day, but there are just too many games in my backlog right now

  • There are a couple of occasions where I watch someone else playing: when deciding if the game is worth buying (gameplay vs cutscenes) and when I'm stuck in a part of a game I can't really google.
