Louis Rossmann is a respectable person in the open source/right to repair arena

I think they’re trying to spell their name: Geoff. They’re still learning, give it time.

Sure, like Norton knows how to delete anything successfully

I was gonna reply to @virtasalto but this response is better than anything I would’ve said.

Go take the asvab, let us know how it goes, and what jobs are available with different scores.

They are very common. You’re not thinking of small businesses and their needs. Sure, a linux server works wonders for a large corporation where it’s doing a lot of back end stuff but you’ll be hard pressed to find a business that flies solely on linux.

I’ve moved to using my time to watch more movies. I plan on reading but it’s a process to get me away from a screen at the moment. I check kbin maybe two or three times a day for about 30min increments. I used to spend hours and hours on reddit, but I like not having to constantly check it. I’m not really active on any other social media site, and reddit was basically my one and only. Now I just pop on kbin from time to time.

I hadn’t heard of this, but I feel like this is the case with most big social media companies atm.

Not always, it’s called the ape index and varies between each person. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ape_index

Backblaze is fairly cheap but can be slow to get data from.

My initial thought was something like Elder Scrolls or Fallout, but I think I would be happier in something with a robust building system. Minecraft would work but something like 7 Days to Die would work too and add a bit more challenge. Maybe Valheim, I haven’t played a lot of that but the building system seemed good the little I played?

Edit: I think I would choose No Man’s Sky, actually. Endless exploration and a semi decent building system.

Nintendo likes to come out of left field with some weird shit sometimes. Unfortunately they’re also usually not on par with current consoles even when released. They like to play it safe in respect to specifications while coming up with wild ideas. I do kinda like that they don’t try to go hardcore on the latest and greatest as it does make for a more stable platform that people know how to work with.

Just because one person doesn’t want to go to something doesn’t mean they shouldn’t exist. You’re basically saying one person’s opinion/choice outweighs an entire group. If those choices constantly put you at odds with the group it might be best to find a group that aligns with your values more. There’s also nothing wrong with being friends with the people that want to go to things you don’t like, just tag along when they do things you do like. You also don’t have to have one set of friends, you can have multiple groups that like to do different things. I’m not pro banning things for the sake of others that can choose not to participate.

…that’s why you would only go to a place like that if everyone is down. Having them for people that want to go is fine, no one is forced to go.

I have it set to dynamic IP so it changes

I haven’t even heard of it so I don’t have an opinion on it. If it works for you then great! Technically my private searxng is a paid service since I host it in the cloud but it does have the option to be free if you host it locally.

I’ll also add, with a private instance of searxng you know for a fact nothing is getting saved.

Every time it makes a query to one of the selected search engines it does it as a “new user” so there’s no history for it to track.

edit: that’s also why I host it on a cloud server, just to add that extra layer. Not to say someone determined couldn’t figure out who I am but it stops the passive layers of trying to track.

I’ve had a private SearXNG instance for about a year. Never going back, if you want no ads and to not be tracked by your searches it’s the way to go. I host it on a cloud server to further remove myself from being tracked via IP. It’s pretty easy to spin one up and I highly recommend it.

Here’s what my page looks like when I search

This looks like it could be Zach Galifianakis’s most unique performance. It’s a little hard to tell it’s even him. I’ll probably check it out.
