I used to grab anything I could to read when taking a shit. Even reading shampoo bottle labels. Now I'm here typing this mess to you guys as I take a dump.

I did it a week ago and it was just a case of passing through the video card. I came across a lot of guides and they were all in the CLI. I assume things have improved or maybe it differs per card. I was just using onboard graphics from an N100 CPU.

I'm a recent convert to Linux and went with Arch. I like minimalist stuff and Arch is right up my street in that regard. I did have issues though, games would crash when opening after there was some code change in the kernel for AMD cards a few weeks ago. It's fixed now but surprisingly it took about two weeks to get fixed and reach my install. Life on the edge I suppose.

Dad?

But then max will win the race anyway 🥱

But again it's only the minority using extensions or actually taking the time to deny cookies.

This banner is the same tactic used by malware. It targets the average Joe that just accepts anything thrown in their face. It's the same with the cookie popup we see in the EU. People just click accept to get it out their way so they can view the content they came to see.

They pushed me to Linux (Arch btw).

They aren't targeting people like me though. They are targeting people like my wife that doesn't read what she clicks and just accepts it.

Microsoft are being really very pushy to get people to use Edge.

Enter the Dragon quote 🙏

I'm all for their cause but they've been going about it the wrong way every single time. They do nothing but piss the general public off. The very people you actually need to get on your side.

TIL

Why not? It's another useful area to use as a backup.

Use Cryptomator. You can then use any cloud storage provider knowing they can't read your files.

Indeed this. Plus my minipc has dual ethernet which is handy as I run Proxmox and use the second nic for migration traffic. The mini pc is way better than the Pi for my usage.

Loved the Pi for hosting small services around the house. I've just replaced my Pi4 with a N100, 16GB, 512GB SSD mini pc which is so much faster, not to mention cheaper than a Pi5.

Not on an iPhone it cant

I'd suggest uBlock Origin but then they're running iOS.

I do agree that fdroid is ugly. Droid-ify is so much more pleasing to the eye.

Thanks! I didn't know about this. I never use audiobooks. Just changed my family plan. £2 is £2!

I redid my bathroom in my old house and put a larger bathtub in. The issue is it requires a lot more water to fill. Great having much more leg room but it just uses so much water. I ended up using it less due to costs.
