I hope Gen Z shows up. I don't buy into poll results.

Which is exactly why the US is looking at a sale / ban scenario. I doubt it'll ever actually happen.

No argument on US companies not being much better. At least there's some paperwork that gets in the way.

I suggest you read the article, specifically the section "Get flexible with your thinking." :) A Trump win, while disturbing, has a lot of possible outcomes.

No it's not. It's because it, like other Chinese companies, are at risk of being browbeaten by their government into providing whatever information they have on American users to use as they wish. One can easily argue what kind of risk that actually poses, but that's why they're trying to ban it. Unless you have some sort of proof....

I think you elude to it, but just to clarify...VC's and companies have been buying homes like crazy, thus reducing an already anemic inventory.

That video is worth watching just for the LOLs, but also does a great job of explaining exactly how the whole thing works.

Mountain biking, hiking, skiing, or golfing.

Life outdoors is so enjoyable and cathartic.

Trying to setup dnscrypt-proxy on my personal laptop. I tend to think I things are more complicated, so I went down the rabbit hole searching for all manner of issues and setup guides. It's not hard.... RTFM

I mean.... They're not wrong. Why the hell would he go get curb stomped now instead of waiting until she's technically gotten the nomination?

It'd be fun to watch the beatdown, but I doubt it'll ever happen.

No, and I mean NO! Dwarf Fortress post should be without the hilarious and colorful story of boatmurdered

You can read the whole log, but starkravingmad's journal is pure LOL.

 

One of the few things that differentiates the major distros is the package manager. I've been running void on my laptop for the last 3 years and love it. XBPS is super fast and easy to use. It has never left me with a broken system either. That said, I've got the itch to switch.

I am looking at rolling / up to date distros. I'm inclined to use CLI when available.

I've been considering Opensuse, but last time I used zypper it was painfully slow. Has it gotten any better?

I was thinking of trying Alpine, how is APK?

Not interested in *butu, but apt seemed okay.

What's your favorite and how does it behave?
