4 years ago Mental Outlaw made a video about Surf and how based it was. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g9xK44imGVc

Recently, (past few months) I tried using it serious. Making wrappers that auto open common webpages with Surf, in example
yt_mentaloutlaw
is a /.local/bin wrapper on my machine that opens Kennys YT page. Another wrapper that I made list common websites in a basic html list- duckduckgo, startpage, deepseek, wikipedia, soundcloud, grok, /g/, wcofun, wikimedia, h ytmnd, GIMP forum, flathub ect... work good on Surf and I use those websites commonly.

But problems exist, I can't select the url to get it on the clipboard, and unrelated I have to manually click "copy" to copy normal text to the clipboard. There is no history list, It saves all media I download in /home/username and websites I visit often like archive.org shit the bed because I can't access way back machines 1996-2025 chart. But the rest of archive.org may works fine. X.com goes painfully slow and clunky after browsing for a few minutes, and it usually has randomlly crashes if I open a new tab, I have to copy link and run `sf website name` to prevent that.

Here are my surf wrapper settings that launch with `sf`

surf -z 1.3 "$@"


Share your experiences with the surf web browser. I tried to do it to make Kenny happy - its usuable some places, but not ideal and apparently may use more RAM then Brave in some cases. Also just forget about bookmarks and use iconified wrappers.

hi beaver, ive been following your progress on twitter and im proud of you. i think you still have a bit more growing to do on the trans stuff but im happy you managed to be empathetic in the current US regime. Also please stop using Grok to prove your point, it's an AI model not a god, it will reply with whatever seems looks good based on what it was trained on and since it's musk's child it will be more in favor of the government's decisions than against it the more he manipulates its sources.

as for me, im thinking of getting back to college to get a degree and maybe a better job down the line. My boyfriend tells me I could retire and be a stay-at-home because he got a promotion but i dont want to be lazy or be a burden to him.

I have yet to see a response from GrapheneOS or other updooters on how to deal with supply chain attacks. The vast majority of "security threats" that are rolled out to apps just aren't a threat to most users. Meanwhile, the six-gorillion dependencies that your Rust app has pulled in a backdoor.

You want a threat model? How about an Israeli ad company might buy one of my favorite apps and enshittify it with ads. That's the real threat. Happened with Simple Mobile tools. Fdroid didn't push the update, Play did.

I recently got my laptop back after it was seized by the LEA. They found nothing since I had FDE using Truecrypt but now I'm worried if they tampered with my device or installed a backdoor. I have placed it inside of a faraday cage and I'm thinking whether I should get rid of it. My mom's also asking a lot of questions which makes me think the house has been bugged. Currently posting from my phone which hasn't been compromised. My parents foolishly allowed the agents to take my laptop without a search warrant while I wasn't home and now they're trying to make me confess for my sins. What should I do? I'm obviously getting a lawyer within the next few days, but does /g/ think my laptop is safe to use, or should it be destroyed?

Lack of customer demand for that style which is a niche customer interest.
Phones and tablets ARE cheap computers that style would have to compete with while also competing with abundant used and more powerful PCs.

Adding a bluetooth keyboard and mouse (or combination keyboard with integral trackpad) is easy as pairing. Tablets often have aftermarket cases with integral bluetooth keyboards (which could of course be paired with a phone).

>Utilitarian design: e.g. indicator LEDs, 7 row keyboard layout on older models

>Easy to repair (most models), upgrade & maintain thanks to readily available service manuals for every model, spare parts easy & cheap to obtain

I run Mint on a X390 Yoga and XFCE is fine as long as you have an auto rotate script configured. Cinnamon has support right out of the box and I assume MATE does as well, but I care more about battery life so I quickly swapped over to XFCE and haven't touched either in a while. Pressure sensitivity works without configuring anything as well, but you better like Krita or other drawing programs that are Linux native because Wine still is unable to translate pressure sensitivity when using it for Windows programs.
>>
>>107545866
They're both very similar, 380's got a few things that add up to being better as a whole than the 390 (can put a 2242 M.2 into the WWAN slot, more keyboard protection when in tablet mode, modular power jack means it's more resistant to breaking than a typical Type-C port and can also be swapped out for Type-C charging instead of a laptop plug).
