ikr, embarrassing. corporate propaganda works i guess.
i do wonder about the sampling bias. usually these surveys bias towards urban college educated top 25% upper caste people, they should ask lowest income quartile.
You should try gentoo as a therapy replacement next. It’s basically the adult version of maintaining a long running Animal Crossing save.
Every morning I wake up, grab a coffee and update my system @world. Almost every day it goes without a hitch and I watch the system evaluate and resolve any incongruities that might emerge from updates by itself. Other times I might need to make a intervention in the dependencies to guide it to a resolution; but it’s a small nudge in the right direction, like tweaking a miniature ship inside a bottle.
This is partially tongue in cheek but I unironically get a lot of joy out of administrating my PC: Having it completely customized and working exactly like I need it to.
Six months is the max that’s supposed to be supported. (Longest no-update period I’ve ever sorted out was twelve months. Possible, but time-consuming.)
You will need to shop for a car inverter. Find one that is at least 1,500 watts, and it will help you power your refrigerator for up to five hours—usually without damaging your car battery. Considering how much food we keep in our refrigerators, a $200 car inverter is a bargain!
Nah, it’s definitely easier during a tornado to go outside, jack up my car, remove the wheel, remove the wheel liner, and then pull the battery from inside the bumper because that’s a really convenient place to keep a car battery. Then I just have to lug the battery inside, hook it up, and keep 2 small children and 3 dogs away from it. Much easier than a generator.
Walker has claimed she was in a romantic relationship with singer-songwriter Tracy Chapman in the mid-1990s: “It was delicious and lovely and wonderful and I totally enjoyed it and I was completely in love with her but it was not anybody’s business but ours.”[78] Chapman has not publicly commented on the existence of a relationship and maintains a strict separation between her private and public life.[79][80]
Her Wiki article implies that she was outed without her consent, but doesn’t explicitly say that. (I looked it up a while ago when that cover of Fast Car was trending, because that whole situation was interesting).
Last time I did check Cdromance, don’t have links to download anymore, I like that place because has many roms with patched QoL romhacks. Maybe now you need to have an account.
I assume because Bitcoin has a public ledger and Monero doesn’t. Its more than that, but that’s the gist. Monero literally exists to offer additional privacy over Bitcoin.
No idea about those VPNs in particular, but I assume its a similar privacy issue, such as keeping logs…
Bitcoin is a Snitchcoin. Everything is does everywhere it goes and everyone trading in its entire history is tracked and publicated %100 all the way down to the IP address.
Closest thing you can get away with that is to swap Monero for the Bitcoin on Bisq.
Monero is anonymous. %100. Regular upgrade to the shuffling of the anonymity is by design and happens between twice a year and every other year.
Mullvad accept Monero directly. No third party snitch tracker doing the acceptance for them. They give the same discount for the payment method.
I’m familiar with Bitcoin and Monero, it just wasn’t clear to me how they related to those VPNs.
I’m all for privacy but if you feel the need to pay for a VPN with Monero, and get seemingly offended by ones that don’t accept it, then I really have to wonder what you need it for.
Just an FYI, if I’m suspicious and I’ve only interacted with you once, I’m sure anyone who actually cares is also already suspicious of you. If you’re so big on Monero, then you should also know about OpSec.
Nord is a snitch VPN. Nothing you do in it is private.
I’m paranoid by choice. I’m choice of such because I’d rather have the skill before the need is the status and late to the party with any skill at all.
No. All my old shit is gone. I was in a coma for 3mo and 3 more in rehab. Came back to all my comps fried or stolen. I know enough never to fuck with them. Don’t take my word for it. Do your own gorramn research.
It’s just the proprietary web client embedded in Electron… kinda like the official client. It does offer more privacy and solves some problems with the official client, tho. Abaddon and gtkcord4 are the only usable fully foss clients afaik.
No, I just mean that they work ok and you can use them to reliably read messages, send them and some other things. They don’t have all of the features the official client has. If you like me would rather not use Discord at all but reluctantly had to join a couple servers, they’re plenty good enough. Otherwise, you’ll probably want to use to official client. abaddon has voice support, gtkcord4 doesn’t. gtkcord4 has markdown, but abaddon doesn’t. Neither have screen-sharing or webcam support.
Yeah I’ve shared screen and stuff on webcord just fine. Previously, I used it inside firefox so ublock can block things but screensharing would not work
Well, that means that it’s also a C++ thing, but streams are an even slicker concept that aren’t a C thing, making higher-level code look nice and shiny - and abstracting away loads of I/O pain points while encapsulating useful features.
C++ streams are ugly in their own right, but C++ preferred practice these days is to treat it as its own language rather than as a C superset. That is, lots of crufty old C stuff still works in C++ for legacy reasons, but using it when you don’t have to is considered inappropriate.
Yeah, streams are old and crusty and horrific on the inside (don’t ask about the time I implemented a socket layer with streams), but still less clunky than the C standard library (unless you’re really into being a memory Nazi).
Yesterday was the first time I got the survey on my Deck.
I got it on the desktop (as I often am during the day because I do all my work on it), and noticed that while it reported the device as Valve manufactured and the OS correctly, a whole bunch of other data was wrong, like it said the device didn't support touch, etc.
Should I have taken the survey on Game Mode? Is it even possible to get the survey in Game Mode?
