I have used it in the past for a few years. I don't think you should. Why?

• The Manjaro devs are idiots. They have broken the AUR on multiple occasions.
• Their packages break more often than upstream Arch since you get update bundles which they release. This isn't tested as well as it should and may lead to things breaking.
• Arch is also easier to install nowadays, if you really want a rolling release distro.

If you just want something not-Ubuntu and easy to use, I tend to favor Fedora personally.

Facilitating Piracy no matter how you put it is wrong and illegal, it is wrong and illegal to support people who do it.

I love how some people assume that everyone agrees on the ethics of piracy

My device always shows the WiFi number. It's nice to know since I live in an apartment building with shared wifi. The shared wifi is 4/5 and mine is 6 so I can see at a glance if I'm connected right.

I can't imagine another reason it'd be useful though.

Nahhh KDE is the one looking pants. In Gnome everything is very consistent and in KDE very much not so. Even something as simple as the toolbar looks ass.

Gnome is very intuitive too, I like the window overview and it just doesn't get in my way.

I was an i3wm user before going to Gnome. All the defaults just work, which saves me time

At that point just use 'man grep'.

I heard they're looking to add typing to JavaScript in a very similar style as TypeScript. Basically running TypeScript in the browser without tsc.

There's at least a proposal which I hope they'll continue with.

Spring Boot is the worst for this. It seems like every minor update deprecates some security classes which yields a few hours of effort to implement the same damn thing every week

Meh leave it home then. That worked fine when I was in school until phones became widespread

Haha yes me too. I thought "hmm guess he hasn't quite implemented that yet" but of course I have DNS AdBlock. Nice to know that works (:

Could you elaborate? I've never heard of that. Although I don't donate to Wikipedia now.

I have already seen bots that are moving complete reddit subs to their respective communities. It's really annoying, because there's no actual engagement whatsoever

I like the concept but they're too expensive for me. About €2k for a fold and €1k for a flip is outside my (self-imposed) budget. I don't particularly wish to spend more than about €600.

Once they become more mainstream and affordable, I'll most definitely be checking one out.

Yeah that's what I have too. One of my servers is exposed with key auth and I just tunnel to other servers from there. A few MB egress is nothing compared with the amount of spam my webserver needs to deal with

That isn't what normalized means in the context of databases.

Also databases store the same data many times over often. For redundancy and load-balancing purposes. Really, federation just takes care of replication somewhat.

Yep just delete the account while you're at it. If it's for work just don't use it on a personal device

Yeah so? They made those themselves.

Samsung's quick settings is okay, I should've clarified. I just think the rest of their UI sucks ass

I have an nginx reverse proxy with http auth, myself. It's such battle tested software that I trust it fully

Caddy Reverse Proxy with Basic Auth for services which are critical like my 3d printer. Without auth for other services like my website or jellyfin and such. I use docker for everything so that's another layer of safety for me.

I have port 443 open and use subdomains for most stuff. Some other ports for non-HTTP services but I don't have any right now.

That's a good tip. Also: have your servers auto-update weekly. You will forget.

I have a ThinkCentre m90q with an i3. It's a few years old. It's a lot more powerful than a Pi. A Pi will not cut it.

You will preferably need something with modern hardware encoding. Support for h265 and AV1 is a requirement nowadays to play high quality sources and find anything for newer stuff. Moreso if you want to watch 4k content.

My grandma uses WhatsApp. The only reason I've ever used SMS is to receive a verification code

Apple is willfully hampering the ability to intercommunicate between iPhones and Androids

In what way exactly? All the messaging apps I use work fine. I even have the same Signal account logged in through both my Android phone and my iPad.

Nobody I know actually uses iMessage either. It's a complete non-issue as SMS is quite an outdated technology.

I think Samsung has done an awful job on their UI. I can't place why, I just hate it.

I think OnePlus has done really well, keeping close to stock Android but improving on it too.
