No amount of money would do it for me. Can’t live a life like that. Don’t even need that much money so why would I risk it all? Not to mention it’s wrong on every level. Snowden did it the right way should there ever be a reason.

Well said. I use Edge in my Windows 11 VM (for Fidelity Active Trader Pro) and I like Edge a lot. Might reconsider now.

You get to choose which app is default app in iOS 15 and 14 as well I believe and maybe even before that. Not forced, just the default.

Guy is an embarrassment to the NBA and fans all across the world also. He just flat out sucks. Objectively. Money is all he has.

Thought it was a good deal. Using it for misc purposes (server, email forwarding, irc, vpn, etc). And put up some ASCII art like the good ol' days. Wu-Tang is for the hackers!

+1 for turning it into a Linux laptop. Although I'd understand if you kept it Mac (probably best if it's still supported). For my 2010 MBP, I'm running Linux on it and it's really brought it back to life. Especially with

1. Day to day, you can incorporate it many ways, preferably by intermittent fasting, but you don't _need_ to do intermittent fasting for caloric restriction, which means just eating less. (30% fewer calories according to this study) 2.

Everyone is talking about Amazon promoting their own products, but can we talk about the type of products being promoted in the top 5? Security camera, Ring doorbell, Echos, i.e. all surveillance devices people are willingly and voluntarily

You can run updatedb more frequently. By default it is run on a daily cron job and has the smarts to not run when on battery. (see /etc/cron.daily/mlocate) You can also exclude directories in /etc/updatedb.conf that

Well, I'm ecstatic. What a beautiful font. After seeing this, I was finally inspired to find out why BitchX wouldn't display ANSI art correctly. Turns out I needed a code 437 emulator! [1] I can now use it the way it was meant to.

Exactly. We all have the same 24 hours, how we we choose to prioritize is up to us. But I’m not interested in excuses of “I don’t have the time.” You MAKE the time when it comes to your health.

We’ll be here all day. He would associate the code to the person, which goes against the “I am not my code.” that many adhere to. Linus is stepping up and finally owning up to his behavior. We owe him a lot so we gave him a pass before. Now

I think there should be a distinction between Canonical and debian, but Ubuntu is certainly based on Debian, and the latter should be used when talking big scale like he did. Many cloud services and providers run on Ubuntu, and as long as U

I'm sure it was just poking fun. We can't be kernel ricers and get mad when people make fun of it. CFLAGS matter! lol One thing I will say, compiling your own has many benefits, as all the distribution kernels use Generic x86-64 a

I'm right there with you guys. I made my desktop in 2014 with a Haswell i5-4670K @ 3.4GHz. Overclocked it to 4.3GHz, and I still don't have a reason to upgrade. I really want a Ryzen 2700X also but staying patient. Newer and bette
