    People really fail to understand what a truly colossal undertaking a site like YouTube is. It’s a technological wonder that they are able to process that much data and serve it so efficiently. Hate YouTube all you want, I do, but the engineers at Google are fucking magicians.

    Ikey has already left this project, if I understand correctly. Possibly due to issues in his personal life. The project seems to be going on ahead regardless, and his departure wasn’t as critical as when he left Solus. Solus themselves are waiting for the AerynOS tooling to mature and then they’ll migrate their distro to use those too.

    AerynOS is still in alpha though, and not really ready for daily use. I’m glad to hear OP has had a positive experience, but the OS isn’t something I’d recommend for your average user yet.









  • I’ve taken to the habit of just logging in to the few sites I have accounts every time I open the browser. At this point, all my browsers are configured to delete all data. I don’t find it an inconvenience, and I feel it adds a layer of security. I don’t even use a password manager (though I should), as brain exercise I’ve memorized the few passwords I need. For me, it’s definitely worth the slight extra hassle. However, I accept this may be a bit much, given I’m pretty much the only person who uses this computer. I just feel more comfortable flushing all those pesky cookies daily.
