Hello
The fuck? Get off the internet for a bit and touch some grass
They serve different purposes, what’s wrong with having both bikes and cars? People live outside of cities too, you know
On the surface it is true, but in reality all of those things came at the expense of people’s liberty and the people themselves - they jailed or killed anyone that didn’t agree with or was seen as an enemy of the state, resources were actually incredibly scarce and there was a lot of famine (just in the less important parts of the empire), nobody trusted anyone and people kept stealing things for themselves anyway. Oh also child labor and many many more things like that.
Like I understand the good part of communism, but oh God is the USSR the worst possible example of that, they didn’t even have real communism anyway.
Is the recent XZ backdoor (and something that had to do with SSH too) anything to worry about in terms of the probability of there being a backdoor even in open source router software?
Not trying to dissuade anyone here, I love open source software, I’m just wondering how much effort is reasonable to be put into securing your local network (i.e. buying your own router, also installing open source software, or writing your own router software if you don’t trust existing solutions) given that not everyone is tech savvy and you get diminishing returns for every additional security measure. And when is the usual point at which you would say “okay, this is secure enough”?
My router is not from an ISP, but it does get frequent firmware updates and I don’t use any cloud management features, only local configuration.
I’m curious, does running open source software somehow exempt you from getting malware?
That’s why you don’t see any ads
Do you live in the EU?
You can also have “normal returns”, or line breaks instead of new paragraph, by putting a double space at the end of a line:

Verifying your identity before posting potentially illegal content is a great deterrent against doing so, especially when it’s original content.
I couldn’t find any reasonable statistics or survey data talking about whether people prefer cars or other modes of transport and why, but the general theme amongst Gen Z in particular is ecological awareness and sustainability, so it wouldn’t make sense for a lot of those people to drive cars just because they prefer the car itself, other than being able to get around places quickly or feeling safe on the street etc.
I love loved how when Microsoft published docs on how to install and configure Linux on their desktop PCs, everyone was like “wtf??? Do they hate money?” completely missing the fact that home edition Windows is probably bringing them nothing or close to nothing, and that the real money is in B2B.
I wonder why
At least show 14 tabs of something other than porn, maybe you’ll be less embarrassed that way?
Then just don’t play that game LMAO, like bad games are launched from time to time and we should learn to ignore them and move on to play the good games.
Oh it’s you again, Mr. Edible Friend…
A couple days ago I posted a comment on the negatives on Linux, but honestly, if you play normal games on Steam, like not some weird obscure Atari 2600 emulators, you can try Linux fearlessly.
99% of games work on Linux, I personally have played many Steam and non-Steam games, such as Cyberpunk 2077, War Thunder, world of tanks, rimworld, factorio, Overwatch etc. All ran flawlessly for me, and I even have an NVIDIA GPU, which is supposedly very bad on Linux!
Thanks! I’ll come back to this thread once I read more.
Disclaimer, I didn’t do any research on this, but what would be bad with just AI translating text, given a reliable enough AI? No code required, just plain human speech.
I love how you two seem to be arguing or trying to win over each other in some way, whereas you are in fact in agreement, just coming from opposite sides.
Yeah but he was being pedantic over the word “impossibly”. If we can make 1 atom thin sheets, then it’s not impossible, right?
