This is why you keep a gun in case the toaster laughs.

I’m fine with any food preservation techniques here, though I don’t mod this community.

Ed…ward?

Where do we go to request they delete our data?

There’s prior art from Konami with the Silent Scope arcade series

To add on if you have multiple machines in your home, move one machine to something easy like Arch Mint now to ease yourself in. I dropped a 2nd SSD for Mint in main machine and haven’t booted my win install in over 2 years and even then it was unnecessary. Currently I’m up to the family computer on Mint, 2 laptops running Tumbleweed and Fedora, a server on Debian, 2 Raspberry Pis on Raspian, and a router on FreeBSD.

When Win 11 is such a hostile experience for privacy, yeah it still is out of spite, just for different reasons. I’m so glad to be rid of Windows in my home.

Unless you think the current state of public education is the best, having dollars follow kids to where they go to school instead of just going to public schools seems like a decent compromise. Around me those public funds go to tearing down perfectly good buildings and building schools palaces on property owned by people on the school board and near their friends so they can increase their property value and sell high. All while the level of education stays the same at best.

Hey! Man you disrespectin’ me?

I’d say that censorship when enacted by governments is violence and there’s no smaller minority than the individual. That said, if the UN Rights Chief wants to censor certain things, he should just say it. Besides, I don’t put much faith in an org who puts Iran as the chair of the human rights council. Stances like this and the OP’s link are reasons why there’s a ground swelling in the US for withdrawing from the UN.

Yeah, “purchasing” movies or shows comes to mind. When streaming services revoke access and never grant a way to download them, did you ever really purchase the movie or did you just rent it?

I don’t disagree with you. But calling it anything other than what it is is disingenuous and misleading. Like when you buy a movie and it isn’t available to download and the streaming service takes away access, did you really purchase that movie or did you just rent it? Words have meaning is all I’m saying.

No one said it had to be platformed, but call a spade a spade

Are we redefining words now?

Or they can crowd source instead of paying a firm and get the same results for practically free. It’s the same way Xitter and Wikipedia and other wikis operate.

Well shit, was reading the story where they mentioned the crew and it stuck in my head.

As if i needed anymore reasons to not buy any Ubisoft 2k games. Less than 2 years of online functionality is awful.

Edit: I’m a goober

Gigabit ethernet port sounds like an easy vector for a adding a cellular modem for an inexpensive phone

There’s also LMDE which is mint built on Debian instead of Ubuntu. The Mint guys had the foresight to prepare for a future when they’d get fed up with Ubuntu’s nonsense.
