Firefox/Mozilla operated without any of the new additions for nearly the entire history of the internet until this year. If anything, “over”-reacting to the new policies was too weak a reaction. You do you and all, but I’ll agree to very strongly disagree.

Mine is E2EE.

That article says it better than I can in s short post. Firefox’s terms of use/privacy policy went over like a lead balloon last month.

I think it’s incredibly important that people know, with absolute certainty, whether or not the new Mozilla/Firefox privacy policy in any way applies to / covers such a service.

I’m not saying I know the answer- What I’m saying without a concrete, permanently applied answer it’s not even considerable.

Holy shit, Canon convinced you to install a mobile app? Who’s holding the gun to your head? We’ll dispatch authorities as soon as possible.

Been there. Accepted

To answer your questions though, I suggest the non-Cosmic version of Pop!OS. (and switch to wayland if it’s not the default yet- not sure, I’ve had this install for YEARS) It’s a good blend of “just works” and “up to date enough” to run anything, and I recommend steering well clear of Arch. I’ve been using Linux for a decade and I’ve always found a way to whoopsie it into a broken state. That’s a “me problem” yes, but if I can fudge it up that easily and I have experience using it, I think it’s unsuitable to recommend to anyone.

Most people live in a web browser- does it really matter if the desktop environment isn’t riced enough or isn’t windows-ey enough? That said, it takes actual hackery to make any version of Windows usable these days, so I’ll forgive a distro not being “absolutely elite” for someone’s preferences. Let’s not compare Linux forums to Windows forums, where no-one has ever, I repeat ever received ANY useful advice besides reinstalling their Windows, am I right?

I typed 6 words. Are you alright

Uh

Who’s ready to talk Linux

I love it, may as well try it out- see if you also love it

Frame #2 looks like top- everyone here should try btop!

Funny thing, the internet. -Includes all of humanity. One of the many downsides.

As an American myself, I agree. Please kill me.

I’m not actually too worried. He surrounds himself with champions.

Does nothing? DOES NOTHING?! He spent the last few years ripping Microsoft a new a@@hole, rendering their operating system meaningless for gamers! …but nice meme

Reality has to BE.

See that extended lower bit below the doors? That’s a wheelchair van.

You’re not wrong OP, except this time YOU should offer to do it.

I’d say no, it’s not moral, but at the same time, I wouldn’t be upset to see it happening more often. Get photos.

Idea: Lead-lined underwear with wires inside that when scanned says “Fuck you” on the front and “Eat shit” on the back

Lying in general wears me down, but if I told a client or passer-by how I’m actually doing I’d be drugged out of my mind in a padded room by the end of the week. Occasionally I “squeak by” with a “Any day above ground, right?” This can’t be healthy.

The Verge is an absolute pile of flaming dog shit, but a broken clock is right twice a day.
