If you ever want to self host … psono is always an option, but it has a hairy setup.
If you ever want to self host … psono is always an option, but it has a hairy setup.
As a former sysadmin, there is plenty of logic in saying that. I have debugged countless systems that were using systemd, yet somehow the openrc ones just chug along. In the server space systemd is a travesty.
In the desktop space however, i much prefer systemd. Dev environments as well. So yes thst is where “it’s fine”. More than fine, needed!
I just hate this black and white view of the world, I cant stand it. Everything has its place, on servers you want as small a software footprint as possible, on desktop you want compatibility.
This right here is why i moved to a single display setup.
Yeah, its damn solid. In the same vein I am testing the atomic release of fedora, really hard to break that thing, same goes for bazzite.
Now i’m thinking … an atomic release of mint would be … wow
I’m one of those morons that really hates himself so is running systems that are highly optimized (hardened, custom kernels, no systemd) and all I can say, yes, mint cheff’s kiss
NOOOOOOO! Shit! Ah, for the love of cthulu … damnit!
Sigh … this just bummed me out. Thanks for the info.
The one thibg I’d wish I’d known when moving from google that self-hosting is bliss. For everything else there is tuta and nextcloud.
Convenience, time saved.
Its the meat in a shit sandwich. If you dont like chrome based stuff, what choice is there.
I hate that this happened, F. Mozilla for this, but its not like I can just dust off netscape or something.
Librewolf while I wait for the enshittification of the internet services to come full circle.
Yup. Go back a version of xfreerdp. Done.
sudo dnf downgrade xfreerdp (or whst ever is the name of the package)
TL;DR - No trust. None. For anyone or anything.
Extreme you say? Sure, maybe. But we’ve been burned so many times, yet we still say things like “oh but its convenient”. That simply means most people dont care or dont have the time to deal with it, which is fair.
I don’t blame them, in this day and age, we have PLENTY to worry about, other than our online privacy and anonimity.
Personally, I’ve went with the scorched earth approach. Foss, privacy respecting, self-hosted, encrypted. If I don’t have control of it, I will keep it in a different place than the things I have control over.
Unfortunately, for most, this comes at a very large technical overhead. Frankly, I don’t see other ways forward. Look at france, sweeden, UK, they all want backdoors and the encryption keys to everything.
The way forward will be trustless, self-hosted services. The next steps are to simply lower the technical bar, because even as a skilled engineer, sometines I hit my head against things that need a serious amount of figuring out.
Making these services easy to host and use would be amazing. Trust nothing.
I don’t imagine there are many alternatives?
I love it. But this part on their website has me scratching my head:
“Your purchase includes a 12-month Sailfish OS full license subscription valued at €59.88 (€4.99/month), granting access to all releases, commercial components, and feature upgrades. After the first year, you can choose to continue your subscription and support Sailfish OS development further. Even without renewal, your device will continue to function, but future software updates and commercial component upgrades will not be available.”
So does this mean they will be cutting the security updates or just feature updares? Because cutting security updates after a year is a bit of a dick move.
I get that you can always apply patches yourself but … it rubs me the wrong way.

Errr … fine. I have a bias. I didnt like fortnite. I grew up playing twitch shooters like quake and UT. The most important things that mattered back then was movement, positioning and ofcourse, aim.
Aim was a huge huge part, back then the input was as analog as it got. Nowadays I feel like raw aim has taken a step back, while still being important, It is not THE diferentiating factor any longer, especially in games like fortnite.
I’m bitter about that because my mechanical skill is still up there even as an older dude, but in todays games everyone runs circles around me, especially in games like fortnite.
I miss the arena shooters, the raw input feel of 1:1 of the analog days. But I guess I’m just another older guy screaming at a cloud.

Fortnite is to UT, like a Dacia is to a porsche.
I wanted to reply to your points but someone beat me to it.
Learn to think critically. Close the app for a day, cool off and re-read all of these replies.
Do you think we would all just dump on something for the fun of it or just to piss you off? This isnt reddit.
Cmon man, take a second, look around and understand that the taste of boot leather is not very pleasant. Proton is not here for your privacy … I mean it is, unless you’re a french journalist … or a person of interest for the right people.
I know, I was just having a bad day and I kinda took it out on you. My bad.
