I’m pretty sure Ireland is now the richest country in the EU

Don’t fret! 95+% all servers on the internet run Linux so the attack vector has been there for ages. Follow best practices and your risk will remain low!

I’m bound to try it soon; care to share any examples where it’s more Debian or less Mint? And your thoughts on where that’s a good thing vs. bad or neutral? Appreciate it!

How are you finding LMDE compared to base?

Windows, primarily, because I need shit to just function

Thanks for the first chuckle in my day.

Someone needs to check this daft cunt for proof of life. She sounds brain dead.

There ya go. I don’t want to be opted in to sending ANYTHING to Mozilla, especially advertisement effectiveness detail. I’m certain that’s going to include non-anonymized data or it’s mostly useless, I can’t see what’s being sent, but it may not be secured. I get it, I’m not the majority, with ublock and a pi-hole there’s not much to even go on before I made the config change. I guess it’s about time to move away from core firefox branch… but that comes with it’s own concerns.

That’s the neat thing! They don’t.

Don’t bother with the console. I got started there and got hooked before I realized that they were going to kill it off. No updates, none of the “where to find it” database stuff works becuase of the split and generally almost no people now.

Just get it on Steam for PC if you are inclined to play. It’s a fun game. I stopped about a year and a half ago (just looked the other day whilst perusing Steam Sale) for many reasons, but I’m sure I’ll be back to visit some day!

My loathe for conspiracy theorists-flat earthers especially-kind of makes me want to watch this.

That’s quite literally what they are hoping. This is rage-bait sensationalistic reality TV. Don’t fucking give it the time of day and stop sharing for fake internet points… let it die as it should.

Edit: Also downvoted the article because I’m using the same logic… it’s not personal - I just am so tired of seeing posts that are effectively free advertisement for things I despise and don’t want to encourage it.

Nextcloud needs to port over some of the old OC Documentation. Their own docs make all kinds of references and it’s always something esoteric.

Speaking of saber rattling, I found this quote mildly amusing:

The flex notably comes amid persistent tensions with Russia, which has been rattling the nuclear saber lately

“lately”? I mean, if you’re saying repetetive nuclear threats for 2 years + since starting a war with Ukraine, then sure?

Not singing loud enough - straight to jail.

Surprisingly, singing too loud? Also straight to jail.

Come at me with my OS/2 Warp system, bitches!

Truly, email is (thankfully) mostly unspoiled as a protocol since it’s beginning. Other than minor improvements and additions like HTML and spam filters and the like, anyone can host an email service and interface with anyone else on the Internet with the same protocol.

Imagine having $700 million, having almost no responsibility, and still being that much of a putz.

100%.

F-that! Take pride… Mint is ridiculously good. Well managed, stable, “just works” and yet has all the capabilities you want, including auto-running near the edge for current kernels (backed down to stable) without doing jack. You can run at the bleeding edge if you want to manage it yourself.

And for any haters - here’s my take: I’ve been working with Unix for 30+ years, I installed Slackware off of floppies when 16MB of RAM was god-like. I have built, compiled and managed nearly every distro at some point certainly the upstream giants. I’ve been there for the birth of all of them. I’ve also professionally worked on AIX, SunOS/Solaris, HPUX. Yes there’s a lot of fun in maintaining and running things to your satisfaction, but when you hit a certain inflection point of balancing your real life and maintaining distros across multiple machines and decide “This is the way” - Mint just fits the bill on so many levels.

Mint is the bomb and I’m done pretending. Fight me (not you, OP, you’re cool)

The rare Office Space paraphrase joke. I can only assume the downvotes haven’t got a clue. NICE.

The salt-water of life!
