I inderstand fully. I used ti go through the same. At the same time I noticed a big difference when i got married. And a huge one when i had kids. Having a child and being responsible for it is a life changing situation. I tell my self that i became an adult not when i turned 18 but when i became a parent. When this happened to me, my perspective about work stoped revolving about being the best, and turbed to be just and help others be better. That made me soon to realize that those 2 cannot get always together.

Tldr: work 2 live > live 2 work

NextCloud and BitWarden. But that’s a project for later down the road. Local and Foss all the way

Thank you for the suggestion.

I’m planning on buying an AMD GPU later this year and then, I’m planning on installing Linux on my Desktop since Windows 10 will not be supported.

Thanks for the advice.

Already bought a VPN subscription with PIA and also setup a private DNS with cloud-flare on my android smartphone and tablet. Will look into the PC settings later.

I LL take a look into Mullvad later as well since I saw it’s a fork of Firefox which makes it a very interesting prospect.

That won’t be necessary, because I completely uninstalled it and it’s not connected to the network anymore

Tbh, didn’t realised about all these things until I wrote them down

this is a video that everyone has to watch, and keep watching until it goes viral

I know that unfortunately it’s not going to happen.

I also know that there are numerous NGOS and less fortunate people who could really take advantage of using a pc and use it for a good cause or just enjoy it.

I also realise that there is a great number of students, even in the developed world, who could use a laptop for school and fun as well by running Linux.

instead of throwing the hardware away it could be repurposed.

Also i could use a couple of new old pcs to build a NAS for local cloud and jellyfish as well as a Batocera based emulation console for my living room.

“I hate so fucking much how little customer service companies are allowed to have”.

It’s not a mater of how much customer service they’re allowed, rather than how much they choose to have. In most cases they choose to have close to none because it’s more profitable for them, so its in the best short term interest of their share holders. And yes, in most corporations, long term is thex quarter

Just wait until they find out public schools are giving their children dihydrogen monoxide without asking for parental approval.

You can’t give dihydrogen monoxide to children. Fish fuck in it when there are large quantities of it.

It’s not an apples to apples comparable situation. Pun intended!

Being an arse ain’t so bad

proton mail is indeed very good

A bit of info about an “experiment” on the subject https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Popeye

unlimited powaaa!!!

reminds me of this scene from Idiocracy

I also use Nvidia GPUs on Windows. The thing is that They tend to have driver issues on Linux.

I’m also very disappointed with the closed architecture of their software, their recent price hiking in Europe and the fact that they stop supporting older GPUs

TL’DR. I don’t have a bad experience on Windows. At the same time it’s hard to switch to Linux, they dont have open source drivers and they don’t have long term support for their products by turning them obsolete through software

Hopefully by 2025 gaming in Linux will be greatly improved even more. Until then I’ll keep using Windows 10 and I’ll start saving for an AMD card
