It's heavy to give up on something after 8 years but power to you for sticking to your guns, your energy will be far better spent elsewhere.

What's the worst scam you've fallen for (or gotten close to falling for)? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml

One of the screenshots has google play store installed on it, that'll do wonders for privacy.

So many things I'd rather do than go back to Windows in c/linuxmemes@lemmy.world

[–] terry_tibbs@lemmy.ml 2 points 7 months ago

Pretty much the only thing Windows has going for it is hardware support, and that's purely down to manufacturers not supporting Linux so I can't even give MS kudos for that.

If my simracing hardware ever gets decent support I'm switching all my machines over.

Did you ever think that maybe all VPN services are actually secretly owned/funded by governments and that they are only giving you a false illusion of privacy? in c/nostupidquestions@lemmy.world

[–] terry_tibbs@lemmy.ml 7 points 8 months ago

Yeah but would they show their hand by coming down heavy on the average pirate or petty law breaker? If they did have ways to track all VPN traffic they wouldn't want us to know about it.

Best of luck enforcing it, I love Japan but it's like talking to a brick wall when it comes to war time atrocities.
