  • If I were to buy used laptop, I'd want 8th gen or newer because that's where intel finally made more than dual core for mobile.

  • "You should definitely try LFS, it's great and you'll have exactly what you want!"

    "Arch btw! Customize everything and no bloat, hurr durr!"

    "NixOS is the future, go for it!"

  • I see myself in this picture and I don't like it :-(

  • Same here. I grew up in time and place where english was almost non existent for normal people. Then computers came, but they were gray bricks with no sound output outside PC speaker "beep beep". But the language was there already. For many years english was just written form with zero pronounciation for me. And once we finally got teacher that actually could speak (and who wasn't one lecture ahead of us) it was almost too late. That's why I uderstand quite well, especially written text, but once I have to speak myself... people think I came from stone age or something.

  • When I was a kid I had hard time distinguishing between actor and role. So Kevin from Home Alone had to be that Kevin Costner the actor, right? Right!?

  • So it uses both? Interesting.

  • It used to be, it's Bing nowadays I believe.

    //edit: it says it uses google on the site, but I remember there was a bit of shitshow on the internetz ~year ago when they used bing instead. So... I'm confused now.

  • WordPress.org’s latest move involves taking control of a WP Engine plugin

  • I got lost in this wordpress thing. Tried to read few (probably low quality informed-as-I-am) articles and now I'm even more lost. Can someone ELI5 what's going on, who's the good guy, who's the bad guy, whether wordpress (product) is to be avoided, etc. Thank you.

  • I don't recommend Zulip as Discord alternative. It's interesting take on slack-ish type of messenger, but not really "polished" experience for now.

  • It will be done the same year when it's finally "year of linux"... Sad, but seems to be the case.

  • Ok, thank you and all the others for explanation.

  • What about DoH/DoT which comes enabled by default in some browsers I believe? This should "hide" your activity from isp/router as well, shouldn't it?

  • Well, it is impossible to install W11 Pro without MS account for normal person. Sure tech people can do it after couple seconds of web search, but your average PC user? Nope. No way.

  • Most music I like is considered obscure by my friends...

  • I used to use syncthing few years back. I don't remember much about it and I can't even remember why I ditched it. It probably wasn't any disasterous situation - I'd remember that, but there still had to be reason I did it.

    What I remember I specifically used one way sync of photos. I don't do picture editing at all and I tend to sort pictures on drive differently than one huge pile on phone, so this was what allowed me to do my shit easily.

    Different people, different tastes.

  • Honestly I've never even heard of brand called Drobo.

  • Yeah, once you wrote this I saw a video where it's explained Asustor is basically "unlocked" just like regular PC, unlike Synology and Qnap who are hard-set on their offerings. This is quite a big plus IMO. Some people criticize Asustor that it relies on third party solutions like Virtualbox. Not really concern to me as I'd definitely not run a whole virtualized system. And for Docker it has Portainer if I looked right? Isn't this considered a go-to solution with self built systems running docker? How could this be bad?

    Although I have to add that from what I saw both Syno and Qnap have their own systems more polished as a whole than ADM is.

  • Ok, thanks for reply. I'll keep it in mind. I'm in EU, so I'll check the M.2 situation here.

  • But that is terrible to use. I can't imagine my kids or wife to use this with TV...
