Lmfao. Bro edge is chromium my guy. You just switched from one skin to another is all. It's all the same under the hood🤣

They are definitely not all the same, and Vivaldi is a fantastic example of that. Just because it's Chromium-based doesn't mean it's chock full of bullshit and a Chrome reskin, it just means that it most likely is. Vivaldi definitely isn't.

How can you possibly forget the mid-video ad read that is actually a part of the video, thus unblockable?

Changing request headers is a trivial thing.

They created Back Orifice which was a great parody of MS's Back Office.

Man, I had a lot of fun with that and Sub7 back in the day.

I mean, hypothetically speaking depending on statute of limitations.

You can get the camera to follow you with K&M. Just left-click and hold it for ~2 seconds and the camera will go behind the active character and lock-on/follow.

If you feel this way, you should definitely look in to getting into D&D. This game is the closest you're going to get to playing a D&D campaign in a video game as far as translation to the medium goes.

If you like this game, you will absolutely love D&D.

This is the first lesson you have to learn as a Linux enthusiast, NEVER run commands you don't know from the internet

"Nah, just curl this random web address and pipe it over to a sudo bash shell, everything will be fine!"

I hate how this is becoming the official install method for more and more shit. It's like dude, really? You may as well stick your dick in a garbage disposal, both of those actions are equally safe.

You're dreaming if you think I'm not going to wget it and read it to see what it does first.

I’m forced to use either Chrome or Edge for my work computer and it drives me crazy.

I've been a Sysadmin for a ~decade. I can state with 100% certainty that the reason behind that decision is that you can very easily configure Group Policy to control the behavior and visibility/availability of features in Chrome and Edge. Firefox didn't have that until just a couple of years ago, and it wasn't great when it first became available. And to be honest, it's still not fully baked, but it's at least usable now from an administrative perspective.

Maybe bring it up to your IT department and include this link in the email/ticket.

I wonder when there will be a Windows client for KDE Connect.

Wonder no more.

Is OpenVPN not just SSL traffic?

It's not, it's an IPSec VPN by default which runs over UDP. You can run it via TCP and it operates over the same port as HTTPS (443), but it's not the same protocol and can be differentiated that way.

A way around this would be to run an SSLVPN with a landing page where you log in instead of using an IPSec VPN or a dedicated SSLVPN client.

Another way around it would be to create a reverse SSH tunnel on a VM/VPC in another country/state and send all your traffic through that.

Hearing a song that you've downloaded playing on the radio, surprised it didn't skip in that one spot

To this day my brain still jams in neutral when I don't hear a skip at the end of Guerilla Radio the last time Zach says "now"

I mean that is the problem of too many people being on that one instance.

From what I understand, capacity isn't the issue, it's that they're being repeatedly DDoS'ed

Could always just get another drive instead of tearing it down, storage is pretty cheap these days.

But for some reason it started being sold in higher and higher dosages.

I'm not saying this to be elitist or an asshole, or trying to be "better than"/superior or whatever, but for the most part, people really just aren't that smart and don't care to improve that situation. Think of the dumbest person that you know; statistically, half of all people are dumber than that.

"MORE MG MORE BETTER!"

personally I've never had 'spider nightmares' from taking Benadryl, either...

Oddly enough, too much melatonin gives me intense nightmares. 3mg or less for me or it's a guaranteed bad time.

the smegma pot.

That phrase evokes quite the image.

He wasn't homeless.

He had a wine barrel.

You're free to use sync for Lemmy in much the same way you can run a Spotify client in Linux. One does not destroy the other.

I don't understand these mini-Stallmans and their identical attitudes like this. One Stallman is enough, please develop a personality and realize that things do come in shades of grey.

I contribute to FOSS projects & I love Linux and have been using it professionally for a couple of decades, but I'm never going to stand up an LDAP server on it when Active Directory exists, the same way I'm never going to use Windows as a Docker host or a network load balancer.

Use the best tool for the job, don't be a zealot.

but also larger distros being used regularly in enterprise/web hosting.

Red Hat is the 800lb gorilla in the room in that aspect. They put out a rock-solid product and their support is probably the best I've ever used regardless of any other factor.

They also pretty much own the Government/Gov Contractor Linux space because of the support and how simple it is to apply STIGs.

I was on reddit before the digg exodus

Man, I remember when that shitshow happened. It was like reddit's version of Eternal September.
