No defense is perfect, of course. To prevent client-side code from running, you can always install NoScript.
Privacy is an endless treadmill, though; they are always finding new ways to get around protection. You may get a good level or privacy with the right tools, but it will also be super inconvenient.
Yes, Firefox already provides some protection against fingerprinting.
Depends on if you're a tits or an ass guy, I guess?
It depends. I've done it a few different ways:
- YOLO: especially with thugs like PHP you only affect one page at a time and with low traffic the odds of a problem is small
- Maintenance page: temporarily show a page. Some servers like IIS have this built in. Otherwise it's a simple update to httpd conf
- In a cluster environment, just take the node you're updating out of rotation, and only update one node at a time.
- Copy and switch like you suggested. Can be combined with any of the above and is a smart move if upload is slow or can be interrupted, or it's cumbersome to restore the old files
Edit: spelling
Yes, unless it is encrypted, in which case you need a way to decode that. You can even boot an OS from a USB thumb drive to recover files from a hard drive.
Is moving the drive to another computer as a secondary drive an option? Or put it in a separate USB enclosure? That way you don't need to boot it at all, unless it's encrypted or something.
Since unity is c# I think maybe you phrased that opposite of what you meant?
Anyway, I work in an enterprise environment. We use both Java and .Net, and it largely depends on which group you're in. Neither Java nor .Net is going away anytime soon.
You really don't get to stick with just one thing in a developer career. Learn a little of everything, especially multiple paradigms, and specialize in a few related to the business you work for.
A key skill is adaptability, learning as you go. If you make yourself too specialized, you'll set yourself up for being laid off when your skills become obsolete. I have interviewed a few older IT people in that situation, only a few years from retirement.

What about volunteering? Usually no credentials or experience is required. You get out of the house, get to be around people, and you get the satisfaction of feeling like you are doing something useful, which is rewarding in itself.
It could be anything. You have all kinds of organizations wanting volunteer help: social outreach programs, churches, scouts, clubs, etc. See if anything local catches your interest.

To manage packages on the terminal, I personally like to use aptitude which has a nice visual interface to find, install, and remove packages. It also lets you resolve conflicts interactively. If you do not want a separate tool, you can use apt-cache search to search for new packages.
As is typical with Linux, there are multiple ways to do it. I found an article that outlines a few alternatives.
Make sure your switch(es) are actually getting the full speed. Despite good cables, they could be negotiating at lower speeds. Also check that your router isn't limiting bandwidth in its configuration somewhere.

I switched to self hosted Piwigo after Flickr started threatening to delete my photos a while back.
It had an extension that let me import all my photos from Flickr. Not sure if that still works after they changed hands.
It's very easy to maintain; just click the update button in the Web UI. And it comes with a bunch of extensions.
It isn't terribly different in practice from state and local regulations in the US, except the rules in Norway are the same nationwide.
For example, where I live in Ohio, I can buy beer at the grocery store with some restrictions on Sundays. I can also buy harder liquor in the state store, which is located in a physically separated section of the grocery store and where you have to be 21 (legal drinking age) to shop. Alcohol is subject to special taxes here, as well.
In Norway I would buy beer at the grocery store then go across the street to Vinmonopolet and buy some wine. I could do that at age 18, though some harder liquor is/was restricted to 21.
So it's not all that different, except in the US the limits are a little different, it's more likely to be regulated at a local level, and typically run by some private for-profit entity.
If the idea was to shit on the class that was born right around 9/11, graduated during a global pandemic, and who is going to have to deal with both out of control climate change and AI taking their jobs, then it was executed beautifully. Otherwise it was extremely tone-deaf.
Yes! As a Scandinavian living in the US: I would love to see black currant, red currant, and gooseberries in my grocery store.
