Did he remove his microphone? That’s the first thing I do with every new computer, physically remove the microphone. Microphones pick up much more data than cameras.

the code required to move the taskbar to the top or sides isn’t actually in Windows 11, because Microsoft created the new taskbar from the ground up

Funny, I run a script on my work computer that let’s me move it. I like it on the top.

Social security does need reform. There’s no reason we should cap contributions. We also need more nuance by ability and type of work one does when we determine retirement ages.

The unforeseen effects should be enough to give us pause.

What’s the difference between big software companies and drug cartels? No, this is not the opening line of a joke.

I started using Linux as my primary computer about 7 years ago. After a few months of distro hopping, I landed on Solus because it is stable and rolling. I didn’t want to deal with breaks during major upgrades. My system is still going and I have no complaints. I’m just a regular computer user, personal and work (non-tech job). I have to wonder why Solus doesn’t get more attention.

Less income than what is defined in the chart.

It requires more effort to spread intelligent ideas.

What is your definition of success, then? In my neighborhood, most families have below median income, and all of us live with incomes below what is outlined in the chart. Very few of us are unhappy.

Humans have always been stupid but today technology has made it easier for the dumbest among us to be more influential than any stupid person of any prior era. This, we are in the golden age of stupidity.

What’s it mean when most people do it successfully with less?

Will a .onion site work for you instead? No registration, no cost, and easy to self-host.

I’m testing this app now, just between me and my wife before we give it to the kids. Right now we can only send location updates when we open the app. I’ve tried all the typical things (background battery, always on GPS permissions, etc) without luck. Suggestions? Did you get it to work well for you?

My payroll company came out with a be version that won’t work in Linux. They wouldn’t accommodate me and I was too deep into their ecosystem to change companies so I ended up having to buy a Windows license so I could run a virtual machine every time I had to do payroll.

Edit: My mistake was getting too dependent on a company that doesn’t care about Linux users.

Even with tests, don’t most universities have library computers or a computer lab that’ll suffice instead of using your personal Linux machine?

Just because nobody’s mentioned them yet and they are worth trying out: Solus & Void. Both are independent and rolling distributions.

I got a very early version of Debian from a friend when I was in college. I had a very old computer gifted to me but couldn’t get Windows to install. I ran that badboy with no window manager, just text. I used elinks for my web browser and pine for email. VI was where I wrote my papers. Drivers were a problem, so I had to save papers on a disk to print from a computer at a library.

I’m a long time Solus user and am very happy.

Yes. Independent, rolling, stable.
