I have bad news for you.

This is how it is done:

$a = “”

PHP forever. 🤲 Amen.

The answer is always OpenSuse.

Kidding. Stick with what you know works.

But seriously: OpenSuse.

Just joking.

Not.

Why calculate?

While 1200 might be noon for one, another might just get used to 0800 to be noon. Who says 0000 must be midnight and 1200 noon?

…for now.

A number of the questions are impossible for “regular users” to answer. 32 bit or 64 bit system? Isolated spaces?

Just recommend Ubuntu or Mint. That’s it. We can figure out other distros later if necessary.

What would you like to achieve? Would OpenSnitch be of assistance?

Ubuntu as well. I wish I could say OpenSuse…

I agree. OpenSuse should set the standards in this.

Tbf, they really need a designer to upgrade this visually a bit. It exudes its strong “Sys Admin only” vibes a bit much. In my opinion. 🙂

Makes sense. Would packaging like Flatpak or AppImage be an option? Or just make sure it runs with Wine? Probably all not that straightforward.

Not really related to the issue. If I understand currently, your device isn’t bricked, but freezes. A bricked device doesn’t boot anymore, a frozen device is unresponsive. Or am I misunderstanding this?

Same here.

Game performance on Linux isn’t always the best. So I’ll keep a Win10 around.

Are Linux ports of games so hard to do? Genuine question. I am not a games dev.

Are “brother” the nice guys at the moment?

I must buy a printer soon. Thank you for reminding me to avoid HP products.

One might argue that people preferng to be alone is a symptom of the problem - if the motivation is to avoid stress and frustration.

On the other hand, if being alone is used in a balanced way as a form of self-care in a noisy world that demands so much of us, it can be healthy.

In the end, I would say, it all depends on whether this solitude feels empowering or isolating.

First of all: congratulations. Seriously. This is awesome! Secondly: you designed the most Steampunk looking heart you could. Bravo, truly a capital marvel of fine craftsmanship.

Can’t see anything I disagree with in her statements. Imo she’s spot on. The near future looks even bleaker now.

Sure. You can still be profiled, though. That can open doors for discrimination or other unsavory agendas. One also loses a measure of anonymity. Users don’t clearly see how and know that they are tracked, meaning there’s a loss of transparency.

It’s not just about ads.

This website explains it: https://pixelprivacy.com/resources/browser-fingerprinting/

Basically you send your user agent, browser and OS configuration like screen resolution, your primary system language, timezone, installed plugins and so forth as you browse the internet. Not so easy to block. In fact, avoiding fingerprinting 100% is almost impossible, because there are so many configurations. It is hard not be somewhat unique. Still there are ways to minimize the identifying information. Using Firefox, this is what you might want to read: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/resist-fingerprinting. Note, though, that even there it says that such techniques can “help prevent websites from uniquely identifying you”, not prevent it entirely.

Set off both journalctl -qu gnome-shell and journalctl -qu gnome-settings-daemon. Both return nothing.
