There’s always BSD!
There’s always BSD!
Fair. :)
You seriously haven’t had to provide tech support to relatives with MacOS. Windows is brilliant in comparison.
I would love to see this on my ATM!
A lot of people deride security by obscurity, but I like using Linux simply because the Linux desktop is secure and isn’t as big a target as Windows or MacOS. These “year of the Linux desktop” articles have been coming out for years and I’ve always thought, “I sure hope not!”
This is why we still need Richard Stallman. That guy never gives up on explaining why manipulative, proprietary software is against our interests.
Use free software – and when you can’t, use ad-blockers, privacy badger, noscript, etc.
That definitely might be it. We definitely share the plates and I can’t shake the northern BC accent.
I traveled through Oregon in June and didn’t know about this law. I pumped my own gas in Astoria, Portland, and another place and no one stopped me. No one came out to pump my gas either.
I’ve been using LibreOffice at home for years.
My employer’s recent wholesale shift to Office365/Teams/OneDrive convinced me to switch to LibreOffice at work. It’s a good thing that there’s a portable version, because that’s the only way I can use it on their locked-down laptop.
Trout slapping is still a thing! There’s a Hexchat extension for that!
1981 Honda XR80. This was my first and favourite bike. It was slow and lagged on serious hills. If you dropped into a rut, you weren’t getting out. I broke my collar bone after flying off of it. But it was so much fun. 10/10 would repeat.
Had a couple of other bikes later, but you’re only ever twelve once.
This really is one of the impending problems. Threads will introduce ‘feature creep’ and Lemmy, kbin, and whatever else comes along will have to adopt those features or be seen as incomplete and inadequate. Hopefully they won’t let Meta have a hand in revising the ActivityPub standard.
But the deluge is coming first. For poetic reasons, I really hope they federate in September.
I do this with:
Desktop: Alpine
Android: K-9
I use DuckDuckStart (https://duckduckstart.com/). It searches Startpage by default and uses DDG if you include a bang.
LXTerminal.
I don’t know if increasing the font size counts as customization. I’ve got old, tired eyes.
Transparency is also turned on, which I think I did with compton. It was a long time ago and seems to persist through Debian’s dist upgrades.
It’s worth adding that the entire LXDE suite is great software. It just works. I hope I don’t have to give it up any time soon.
