Accident installed. Then lets fix it by removing it from all computers.

In my opinion it should be illegal to shutdown as long as they have cars. I would not buy any device that requires internet access to work with basic functionality.

What do you use for desktop?

I wonder why not more people choose XMPP. What do you think?

I have never understood why there is no protocol that allows for multi-master node setup(if a message is written to one, then queue to write to the second one and ignore timestamp missmatchning and conflict resolution(It does not have to be perfect) - matrix put too much effort into this IMO).

For family i use Signal. My coworkers use IRC and I have it setup in link-mode for multi master support(but IRC does not have new features like send image, thread, reactions, emoji, text-styling, audio/video calls). Using unrealircd. Neat when the local city network is up but the fiber connection from the city network to the internet is down so I can still write to some friends, or dont care about uptime on my server since they fallback to the second, free, Oracle VM.

When you say fast you mean while gaming getting more fps or do you just mean when on desktop and changing Windows/starting applications?

Yes, that is the hard part. But it can be done. Geoip blocking like only allow your country - blocking every China or Russian user etc. If you are selfhosting at home and worry about your SSH access, then you can do a lot of things to block then early. It is all about authentication. Lets say you require VPN access in - example Wireguard. You could require access only through somebody else, like Cloud flare tunnel. You could also do “port knocking” but that is not encrypted. You could require the user first has to be authenticated somewhere else, like require first Microsoft login and only then your ip is allowed.

I believe it is a good start with crowdsec but feels like it gives false protection. The blocking only happens after they have done a couple of attempts and not before.

To me it is that i upgrade to few times so the laptop would be 10 years old and then everything is out of date. Maybe upgrade battery in between. However, I guess these are really good in the used(resold) market.

Vlc.

I just hate that the web browser is setting the minimum requirements for memory for an OS today.

I wanted to say Kubuntu but cloud not during the transition to Wayland. A few key features were missing. That required kde 6 to be fixed. At the time the next Kubuntu version were a LTS release so it was not going to include kde 6. Only solution were to choose something else that offered that but still were not bleeding edge. Fedora were the answer. Kept using since then. Also alogns a little better with my value of how things should be done like not so bloated , no snaps fight and BTRFs for backup.

How much better is it? I am thinking in terms of compression.

All i read is that nobody will be watching all these ads and YouTube will have to shutdown.

Workstation: Fedora plasma Server: Ubuntu Rock64 Libreelec

Please explain. They don’t have that?

Yepp. There is a gap. I have been waiting for you to open this position - why was it not done sooner?

To me it was like, oh, you made it different and that makes so much more sense, why are they not doing it like that in Windows? Or just during university; there is a tool for that format? And it is already installed? Nice.

1. You need the file everywhere. So when lunch time on work I can’t login, it is not my computer but the company machine. Yes, i have my smartphone with me I dont want to send that file to work.
2. Easier with password. Easy to setup and to reuse a long password that you already have.
3. My ssh server is not reachable easily. Ip restrictions goes a long way and Wireguard is good.

Notably, Windows 10 could do the same thing without any visible issues. And that’s probably because Windows 10 was a much lighter OS than Windows 11.

There is nothing wrong with being lightweight.

Maybe, just maybe, making the startmenu in React is not the best idea.

I got tired of having an OS that is working against me. That is not a healthy relationship. With Linux you can really see there is a shift in the mindset. User experience is prioritized and you are allowed to do what you want wherever you want to. This means for example things like running a live iso, installing the OS and surfing the web at the same time is possible. I can remap the super key, and other keys. Oh, tiling Window manager exist like hyperland. Omarchy. And how about tabs in the file explorer. Why did not Microsoft implement it 20 years ago like when it came to Linux.
