GOG for offline games, Steam games that are online multiplayer or can benefit from cloud saves.

Noita, Slay the Spire, Children of Morta, Brotato…

For me what made a huge difference was adding acid, specially for stews. A hearty splash of vinegar or soy sauce while stewing, or even a dash of lime just before serving takes it from “meh” to “seconds please!”.

Time to piss off both camps an start calling it f5x.

Looks like an old one too, based on the ashtrays in the armrests and the “stereo” headphone plugs.

Square gigs.

Donwside to 2: Your VM becomes harder to move between hardware, you lose snapshotting capabilities from a copy-on-write image.

5 is flexible, but has limitations. For example you wouldn’t want to run databases on NFS volumes.

If initialization time is the only problem with 4, you could create several smaller images on the disk. Create the first one, initialize the VM and set up an LVM volume on it, then start creating more volumes and extend the LVM volume.

These days I would recommend CrowdSec over fail2ban.

What REALLY irks me is that the gboard keyboard on Android is context-sensitive. No, I don’t want to have a shortcut for “.com” when long-pressing the period key while typing an address, I want to type a fscking dash!

Right?!! Consider this - if you replace the scroll wheel with two buttons, which one would you press to scroll down?

I don’t trust them to pick good produce for me.

SO: asks a yes/no question

Me: elaborates first for 5 minutes, forgets to say yes or no

Betteridge’s law of news headlines strikes again!

No. What’s terrifying and dystopian is that the industry has been turning a blind eye to abusive behavior for so long that deplatforming becomes necessary.

I’ve had acquaintances waste away trying to delay cancer death. Hospice is not fun, so I’d rather go out on my own terms.

Plus, any kind of money making scheme I’d think of is likely going to end up like the “aim for the bushes” scene in The Other Guys.

There’s a long list of caveats when running VS Code over SSH. By comparison, text editors:

• Work on Alpine remotes
• Work on older distributions, and other *NIX systems
• Have no problems with SSH key passphrases or security keys
• Only require a few MB of memory
• When run in tmux are largely resilient to SSH connection issues

If you frequently work on remote systems you frequently only get command line access, where you can still use vim/nano/emacs but not a full IDE like VS Code. In that case you might find it more convenient to learn one text editor well and forgo the IDE.

The author of the site works for Brave. The results need to be taken with a grain of salt. Is is more private than Chrome? Absolutely. Is it the best browser for privacy? Ehhh…
