Like many GUIs it makes it so you don’t have to remember and type a bunch of commands to carry out basic tasks. I especially find it convenient for checking logs. But no unique functionality compared to CLI. So it’s a matter of preference.

If we’re defining “text” as “SMS, MMS or RCS”, Signal doesn’t do that anymore. You can only send messages to other signal users. Signal is a great app but you won’t be able to reach people with it unless you talk them into using it.

The shadow of the hand over the city reminded me of the scene in Faust (1926) where the devil is standing over the village.

I got so bored watching the first movie that I turned it off after like 40 min. The emotional core of the movie is so simplistic (they literally kill his puppy? Are you joking?) and the superficial plot elements with the coins and all the assassins and stuff is so overly complicated… I didn’t think the action scenes were very engaging either. I would much rather watch The Bourne Identity.

I don’t think there’s a wrong way to enjoy stories, some people are keen on the “lore” and backstory while others are more interested in the larger scale story or the relationships between characters.

That extends to authors too, some of them put more emphasis on different aspects of their story which may appeal more to certain readers/viewers than others.

Aren’t all the plot points you mentioned basically forgotten by the story itself in a few chapters? Once they start fighting devils and Denji meets all the other characters the plot becomes more about his relationships with those characters, and then about Makima’s plans.

Using OSS in your product and giving the OSS devs resources to improve their software, instead of trying to take over their project? Did Valve not get the memo that big tech companies are supposed to be evil?? Oh right, they have a monopoly on video game distribution and all of their products rely on DRM.

Arch isn’t unstable. Users mess it up by installing a bunch of random crap from the AUR or fiddling with system files.

SteamOS addresses this by making the root level filesystem immutable and guiding the user to install containerized (flatpak) apps.

Just share the information that other people need to know and don’t share things they don’t need to know. Most people on LinkedIn have a worksona anyway, they’re not sharing their personal life much

Yeah it’s total accounts, total monthly active users is more like a million

😂🤣🤣

I watched the first season, partly because some reviewers pointed out that it depicted the multiple relationships of the protagonist more like an actual polyamorous relationship than a typical harem anime. I would have to agree with this specifically in regard to the first half of the season when there are two or three girls involved with the protagonist. He actually goes out of his way to understand the needs of each partner and diffuse conflicts between the girls.

However, this dynamic breaks down fast when more girls are introduced, and the show rapidly devolves into a typical harem comedy, losing any aspect of realism or wholesomeness. Because of that I have no interest in the second season as I expect it to only get worse.

Right, first it’s astronouts- next it’ll be all the illiegal aliens voting!!!

There’s a lot to address here as you’re talking about hardware and possibly multiple levels of software.

Yes, you can do this with raspberry pi or any SBC or mini PC. Even an old desktop PC if space isn’t an issue.

In terms of photo management software, I really like Photoprism. Immich seems to be popular as well.

In order to get your photos synced to multiple computers over the internet (a good idea for resilience), you could look at syncthing. Alternatively, you could have one central server and one or two backups in different locations using borg backup or similar. In my experience, backups are easier to manage and make it easier to recover from data loss than replicating the current state of your data in multiple places. You can do both, though.

It’s a very worthwhile project, but may be pretty difficult unless you are already comfortable with server technology or are enthusiastic about learning.

They can recieve security updates if you use an alternative ROM such as Lineage or /e/OS.

Can you please explain how e/OS/ is insecure?

I’ve heard a lot of people complain about software glitches and minor hardware issues. These issues may be due to the fact that the Pixel 6 was the first Pixel to use Google’s own Tensor chips.

Get a Pixel 7 or newer and put Graphene OS on it. Pixels are excellent phones and have good support for custom ROMs. The Pixel 6 has a lot of weird issues that the others don’t have, so avoid it. Graphene is the best ROM for privacy AND security, and it is also relatively user-friendly.

Or, if you want an older phone, try a Pixel 3, 4 or 5. They are good phones with an older design style that may appeal to you.

/e/OS (also known as Murena) is also a good ROM for privacy, and supports a broader range of devices.

This sounds like music from 10-15 years ago, and I kind of like it. It’s not very original though, just a fun little throwback.

Look at the Steam Deck as an example:

• Linux is preinstalled
• Integrated hardware and software
• Immutable OS that is very hard to bork
• UI is Windows-like which is familiar to the target market
• Good value for the price
• Offered by a well-known and well-liked brand
• Marketed and advertised to the target market

We need more Linux devices like this to gain market share.
