LUGs were very important back then especially when you were new.

Umm what is the international police going to come and arrest trump? Do you actually think anyone in this government gives a shit about international law?

well in some cases they were on the verge of being regulated or in the case of Google being threatened to be broken up. So a lot of this seems like self preservation which is just sad.

So easy to just screenshot or something there is no reason to link there.

what the hell weird timeline are we on.

Yeah I have a friend that does this too. They try to do it to me and I’m just like … I don’t care working is fucking annoying and jobs suck. I just do it to fuck with them but it always blows their damn mind lol.

And yet you can borrow anything from the local library for free and its considered totally fine and not pirating.

I moved to Lemmy during the reddut exodus itsjustt become better overtime I don’t miss reddit at all. Also lots of fellow Linux and free software nerds over here and I like that.

I am so out of the loop on this. People care about what instance they are on?

All systems can be compromised no matter how secure. It sucks that we have to out our kids privacy at risk just to send them to school.

Honestly i didn’t even know this was still a thing

Just blow in the cartridge

Idon’t think so seems like whelemed and overwhelmed mean the same thing but whelm is out of usage https://english.stackexchange.com/questions/19430/why-do-people-say-over-and-underwhelmed-but-never-just-whelmed

Okay any time I mention this product I get roasted but I don’t care because I like it. There is a program called aptik and basically it backs up all your settings and home folder and then can be restored if you need to reinstall. https://store.teejeetech.com/product/aptik/

It’s a one time purchase. I bought my copy like maybe almost 10 years ago and still use it. I used to have a script that I would maintain manually for this sort of thing but this is much easier. I also like that it will update strings and stuff for you when going from one version of a distro to another or between distros. You can also easily go in and uncheck things if you don’t want them or only revert certain parts of the backup and not others. it has 100% saved my butt a few times especially where I had some weird config on a piece of software and after a restore it worked just like before. In my opinion this is also a better option than a diskimage because of the customization of the restore and the fact that you can do it I guess my biggest issue with it is it’s not free software which is kind of annoying however it’s just one dude and the license is very bare bones so it’s not like he is trying to get away with anything with this tool.

wait you can be whelmed? I had never considered that I had only ever heard people say underwhelmed.

As someone else said its free libre open source software. Not my term I just use it because it tends to piss off the least amount of people.

Starlabs starlite tablet looks really nice. I actually just ordered one the other day. I don’t have it yet so I can’t give you a review but from what I have read it’s pretty nice. It’s an Intel machine, upgradable, running coreboot so the compatibility should be high.
