  • I don't have an answer for you, but I have a caution...

    I once worked for AT&T and worked on AT&T Messages.

    DO NOT USE IT, if it still exists, if you're with AT&T. At the time I worked on it, there was no encryption except in-flight (https) -- which means if I had had production access (and some people who worked there at my level, definitely did), I could have read all messages, blobs, everything. I was told after I quit that they intended to add encryption, but since AT&T would still hold the keys, it's useless.

  • Linux (currently Garuda Linux). I can do everything I want on it, including playing all the games I want.

    And with the Windows Recall debacle (and make no mistake, it’s not at all gone, it’ll just exist in some different form or name), I am ridding my house of Windows.

  • Welcome to the club! We have punch and pie.

  • If you don’t think it will end well having a preemptive conversation, then something else is wrong with your relationship to your parents.

    You are an adult. You set the boundaries.

  • And he should be worried. He backed Russia. He has slept with the invader, now he can rot with him.

  • I forgot about that.

  • This is correct. Linux doesn't suck and Windows most definitely does that very well. I'd also add you can do quite advanced things on Linux, as well.

    Also disclaiming: Using Linux since 1999

  • I’m confused, why hasn’t Signal been suggested? Pretty sure it works just fine with WiFi only.

  • It's Thursday...what the hell are you doing???!! You're going to break the Internet!!!

  • I just stopped caring. Why should it matter if people like me? Life is a very short, fleeting construct. Wasting time worrying about what some other human thinks of me makes literally no difference in the grand cosmos. I’d rather put my energy toward something interesting.

  • Built on Chromium. No thanks.

  • Btrfs, because I’ve heard good things.

  • My mom is. That’s about it. My grandparents are all passed now, but they were mostly either racist, or highly opinionated with little regard for evidence.

  • One day religion will cease to exist. I suspect it'll only be when humans cease to exist, but it will happen. Either case, it'll be a good day for the planet.

  • Literally no one alive can tell you because there is no sensory input when you’re dead. Hence the being dead part.

    But if you want to try to imagine what it will be like, the commenter who stated imagining what it was like pre-conception/birth…that’s about as accurate as is possible to describe.

    I anticipate nothingness — and I’m reminded of what Mark Twain said about fearing death.
