How long before the Tesla notices you’re visiting a Synagogue and initiates the FinalSolution function, or starts rerouting all your GPS routes to a ‘camp’?

Yeah, but why WordPress? The site is blocked in Singapore btw, so I can’t RTFA.

Also includes Doom in the settings. Mouse didn’t work for me though.

They’ve already delayed its deployment to reconsider the feedback. - https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon/114709820512537821

He’s white.

Beta most certainly did have porn. VHS’s advantage was that it had a longer record time (therefore more porn).

That maxim is no longer true, especially in the medium-to-long term. Reddit posts older than 8 or so years old aren’t accessible (even to their creators), same with the original Digg posts. If you go back to the Usenet days, most posts haven’t been archived and are lost, especially those from the smaller newsgroups. I expect over the coming decades, we’ll see data loss as a growing issue.

Every generation does. When my parents were born, a computer was a job title. Both my grandfathers were born before the invention of powered flight, and lived to see men walk on the moon. The only constant is continuous change.

Not me, unfortunately.

My understanding is that Roblox requires changes to the kernel to lock it down in order to prevent script kiddies from cheating. Linux makes that very difficult to impossible, so they abandoned/never supported the platform.

Maybe Sony should have some things cutoff for that root kit, hmmm?

Can you play Roblox? I thought they blocked it on Linux.

It’s also in The Menagerie.

Isn’t this from The Cage? They’ve had 60+ years. I doubt it’s a high priority.

My daily driver is a 10yo Dell business laptop. Before that I ran a similarly aged Lenovo. I run mint.

In my experience, the amount of ram and an SSD are the biggest contributors to how good the performance feels. Running mint on 4G is possible, but performance is comprised. 8G is perfectly fine most of the time. 16G (my current setup) is peachy keen. I’m astounded what I can do in blender on a 10yo machine.

That said, if you can afford one (and they operate in your country - they don’t here), then grab a framework, like others have said. If that’s not an option, then add some ram and an SSD.

My 2c.

Let’s be honest, the Soviets were perfectly willing to allow the Nazis to destroy Europe and then reap the rewards. Just ask Poland. Of course, then the Nazis invaded the Soviets and that threw a spanner into the works.

Nextcloud.

It depends, but probably. I use 5-10yo laptops running Debian.

Google’s device, not yours. You don’t own it unless you have sole root privileges.

If only it worked on current generation hardware other than pixel and, iirc, fairphone.
