What a fun thought experiment

Omg the amount of times I’ve clicked on a Medium article in the last month and immediately knew it was AI is so frustrating!!! They aren’t even helpful articles because you can tell there is no real understanding.

I think the key difference is that I grew up in the North. I can’t speak on what everyone did but my conservative friends and any conservative relatives of my friend group were acceptable if not very generous with their tip. In any case, I know this is how politics goes but generalizing your ideological opposition as the scum of the earth isn’t terribly productive or insightful. However, the people you grew up around sound pretty bad and your criticisms of them are much more justified.

Do you go out much? Most people treat their servers well regardless of political affiliation. My home town is majority conservative and are all very respectful when eating out.

Lemm.ee is pretty awesome and allows me to browse the lemmiverse basically uninhibited. Could not be happier with how it is run

Yes, very. I’ve seen people do a similar thing with a separate encrypted home partition which is decrypted by a key stored in your encrypted root. However, I’d strongly recommend you use an LVM on LUKS setup (this is what I do). That way you decrypt one partition and you don’t have to mess around with keyfiles. https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/Dm-crypt/Encrypting_an_entire_system#LVM_on_LUKS

Yes, but according to that same article, “49% of the SSNs exposed don’t include the minimum quality to pose a risk for identity attacks”. So it’s more like 136 million.

This comment, hell this whole thread, is enormously insightful and productive. It feels like a genuine discussion of men’s issues that isn’t on the offensive as it often feels when masculinity is the topic. Thank you and all commenters like you who took the time to make a good point.

I’m not sure why this is a thing more men do, but I can’t agree more. Generally, I associate this kind of behavior with poor emotional intelligence so good advice for literally any kind of relationship with anyone.

This is so cool!

Wait so you believe because he worsened it that he indirectly caused it? I don’t like him at all, but are you serious? The pandemic was inevitable, the death toll wasn’t.

What do you mean? I’m running signal on my laptop, desktop, and phone.

Never say never!

I have a lot of free time today so I’m having a blast improving my NixOS skills while listening to some relaxing music.

You will always have to interact with these company’s servers at some point. Stay in control, but don’t obsess. What matters is getting further away. You have succeeded in many ways by taking these steps. Do not lose sight of that.

I always manage to forget the locale or NetworkManager or set a password for root etc… Unless you have a hyper-specific partitioning scheme or system config these work great

Thanks so much!

I never know where people find this stuff, but I’m glad it lands here.

It seems like a lot of open source projects are getting DDoSed right now.
