you probably are doing it wrong ;)

the problem is cutting edge devices where vendors only publish windows drivers - often friendly hackers have to develop their own drivers to make your stuff work. for users with such hardware the free software experience is often sub-par and they probably won't try it anytime soon. but for everyone else, casual i-only-browse-text-and-watch-videos-on-my-rather-standard-build-users will usually find ad-free, smoothly running no-bullshit (or depending on the distro maybe little-bullshit) computing experience. it's a shame hardware vendors are allowed to only publish drivers for windows.

it's one of the few cases where people with more expertise (i.e. you who builds your own machibe) get a less satisfying result. i'd suggest you try again with spare parts from your last build ;)

i didn't want to flood the thread - there's more where that came from

It is cool

It is fun

Oh wow, Steve Carell as Donald Rumsfeld in Vice

I don't get it

Don't Believe the Headlines

Well, there is bad art, of course. Or maybe you're just not into it (that much).

how can you know these things when you only know a couple of seconds? that's like saying you know a movie from having seen some short sequences of action scenes.

art isn't how it looks but rather how it makes you feel, no? framing art (like in this video) robs the original art of their intention and creates a new perception on it.

kinda like saying rock music is bad because you heard of ozzy munching a bat or seeing marilyn manson harm himself on stage

it's always hard to find intended meaning in excerpts from performance art. does art have to be experts doing non-weird things in your opinion?

nice post btw!

you wanted to

I think you can spoof per tab/container. i used an exclusive Firefox Profile for the bad/contaminated (read: not privacy respecting) browsing - in there i'd ocasionally switch the UserAgent to make Teams calls.

there's no way i'd work on a machine with M$ spyware installed and always running

You can make it work by changing your UserAgent string (there's plugins for that) to some older chrome version to make things work.

Or you opt for an operating system that lers you roll-back whole generations for when such a thing happens (GNU Guix for the win!)

Google does not display the same results for the same queries among different users, they display highly personalized stuff. Web search sadly has become almost unusable when you opt for anonymized use of the internet
