Another great piece of software with a potentially exciting future... ruined, by troon fascists.

If only there was a coordinator of the whole project who didn't budge an inch on his authority ( like Theo De Raadt from OpenBSD ) this wouldn't have happened.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KsDYul3J3Dc

The troons drafted a resignation letter on behalf Nix's founder, Eelco Dulstra, and DEMANDED he signs it. What a wimp.

Does librewolf not have an option to always use private browsing mode? The one advantage of such a mode is that your cache isn't written to disk, it's kept in ram and flushed when you close it.

How many of those unsupported devices are documented and have free drivers? Missing documentation is a bug, so blame hardware vendors for releasing devices in a dangerously incomplete state. Paying for the privilege of running an unverified blob in ring 0 is nuts, you might as well install Windows at that point and at least enjoy a better userland. Running Unix with blobs is the worst of both worlds.

>>102477121
No, actually you've got it backwards. If all you do is scroll the internet then you have no excuse to not use BSD. You should only compromise if you have any work that can't be done on a more free system.

Not an expert on this sort of thing, but in my opinion you should stop fucking with it and breaking parts off. If the data is that important and you have no backups, it might be worth considering professional recovery. Randomly breaking parts of this thing off without understanding what you're doing will probably just make things worse.

A lot of programmers are mediocre because they don’t treat programming like the hobby it is : the art of creative problem solving.
Programming and electrical engineering are actually not that different. But DIY hacker culture is dead in programming because it got over-saturated with normies who think they will get a nice paycheck.
I hear "programmers" say things that always surprise me. They will say "I have this problem, I wish there was a software to solve this".
How about you write that fucking software?
I can understand when it’s a complex problem but sometimes they say that for the most trivial of things that they could easily solve with a script written in 15 minutes.

Programming, software development, is an art. It’s creative problem-solving. How can you be good at creative problem-solving when you constantly ignore opportunities to apply creative problem-solving and wait for someone else to solve your problems?

You ask novice programmers what they have made and often, it’s very little.
And I’m always surprised. When I was young I would write Python/Lua scripts to automate literally thousands of things. Just because I needed it. I didn’t wait for someone else to make a software or script for me. Back then script kids relied on shit languages like BASIC/Visual Basics, but they were still much more creative and DIY than current generations.

Young programmers have no DIY attitude. They only start to work on personal projects when they realize they need a job. This is why they are for the most part, mediocre. A real programmer should organically have a lot of ongoing projects at once and many many little handy scripts. Not because they need an internship, but because they identified problems they needed to solve.
Identifying problems by itself is also a skill.

Musicians practice music hundreds of times to get good. Composers compose thousands of songs. Painters paint a lot.

We're back to delegating performances to hardware rather than programming correctly better software through cleaner code.

>Win10 demanding 64gb for "ideal spec"
That's how Microsoft bullies you to get Win11 so they can justify their shit AI products, browser extensions, Bing gimmicks, otherwise the company sinks ROI on AI tech investments.

Time to seriously switch to Linux once and for all. We don't need all the junk bloatware MS preload onto their machines.

they're not even from the US, the FBI has no jurisdiction over proton. Your emails are encrypted end to end, even if they were a honeypot the only data they have to give the FBI would be "1298ijfiAJF0ti349tiu4t94iug====fjufjuheguhergh" and shit
>matrix is mossad's honeypot
The Matrix homeserver, yes; any other server is fine and the protocol itself is fine.
>bitcoin is traceable
Yes it is, all transactions are viewable on the blockchain and there have been cases of AI investigation using this blockchain forensic data to trace transactions back to specific people.
>monero is traceable
Nope, unlike bitcoin transactions arent viewable on the blockchain.

No, it isn't; and if you're so worried about that, use a Bridge.
