What is a good mail provider nowadays?
Every single one asks for phone number, secondary e-mail address or does something retarded like you can't register to any online service without provided either of the two (Proton), some don't even use imap/pop and you can't use them with a client. It's hell.

Simple. Gmail. Disable smart features and grouping and you'll have ad-free mail both on mobile and web version. Every other e-mail provider is either honeypot CIA shit or simply retarded.

Freedom to fork things that work instead of improving them.
Freedom to rewrite things that work instead of improving them.
Freedom to have things not working because the developers have to account for a billion different configurations.
Freedom to incorrectly configure your machine and cause obscure cryptic issues that seem unrelated and impossible for other people to replicate without taking the same steps.
Freedom to have inferior software because the developers can't assert the user environment.
Basically, freedom to fuck it up in every step of the way.

MacOS "just works" because they control the hardware and the software.
Windows "just works" because the user has no control over the entire OS stack.
Linux "works in your machine" because you happened to have a similar environment as a specific developer.

After using Linux for so long I treat so many things as minor inconveniences (like different display/audio protocols supporting different features, how enabling the compositor fucks specific games, and so on) that would never happen on any other OS.

I just don't feel like Linux will ever go anywhere as long as things keep fracturing whenever they reach past a certain size. Having a BDFL in your project seems to work well but I don't know if that's a good solution, it won't stop people from forking your shit instead of contributing to a single effort.

Don't buy anything other than IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad T, X, and W/P Series if you want the Real Business Experienceâ„¢
Other business laptops are welcome in /tpg/ (Dell Latitude/Precision, HP EliteBook/ZBook)

Why ThinkPad?
>Used machines are plentiful and cheap
>Utilitarian design: e.g. mix of old and new ports, stable keyboard layout
>Easy to repair, upgrade (some models) & maintain thanks to readily available service manuals, spare parts easy to obtain
>Usable in cramped quarters thanks to the TrackPoint
>Excellent Linux & *BSD support

T14 gen 2 is probably the easiest of these not to go wrong with. Screens are ok to good, RAM can be expanded and CPUs, especially the AMD ones, should be good for another few years. It isn't super sturdy by pre-2017 standards but it's backpack-worthy if you cover the screen with a thin cloth. L14 gen 2 is a passable alternative, essentially T14 but thicker, but you have to mind the screen which is sometimes an ugly 1366x768 TN.

though rebranding is not something I'd agree with since it potentially shifts the discussion to modern laptop slop with model numbers so diluted nobody can know what the other anon is talking about.
it still needs to be kept to business or enthusiast laptops
the thinkpad (considering how long its been active) still communicates the concept the best
>>
>>108444677
they still make thinkpads and they're among the best laptops for the same reasons as ever. linux support, build quality, good displays, keyboard, thinknipple, battery life, thermals, noise, replacement parts.

i'm pretty excited for the newest t14 panther lake with lpcamm2 memory.
libreboot is a meme but you can buy new laptops with coreboot from starlabs, nova custom and system76. that's the most attractive alternative to thinkpads.

It pains me to imagine the interview process in a few years' time. What the fuck will an experienced AI jockey have to say in a technical interview when all he does is code review and basic architecture (and even that's a big IF)? Back in the day it at least had sense to have a technical exam of some sort.

and that's what should happen. He gets a notification that you defamed him and then you find yourself banned from Ubuntu, Fedora, Arch and Suse's repos/updates and the AUR, Nix and Flathub, Appimagehub, Pling, Gitlab and Github. Essentially cutting you off 100% from the FOSS community. A lot of people don't know this but Antifa networks monitor everything that goes on in all FOSS communities. So if you fuck around with racism and anti LGBT post you are going to find yourself mass banned from every community outlet just like Lunduke.
