it’s not an alternative if they still have final say.

it’s also not your property if the company can dictate what you run on it either. Stop giving these scum your money.

now I’m not saying someone should firebomb their offices …

having a hotspot you can turn on in an emergency is different from just leaving it on all the time, and even then decoupling the baseband system from your device is still worthwhile.

you said it not me

didn’t know people hated Tux but whatever

well the last thing I’d want to do is infringe Microsoft’s IP … what is the FOSS alternative to Clippy?

“Everything I don’t like is woke LLM”

Crazy thing is he also uploads to Odysee and paid to develop grayjay, I’m not even subscribed to his youtube channel and thanks to him I’m moving as many subs off the platform as possible. Quite a few creators upload all their shit to other platforms.

also if you’re watching someone who advocates for adblockers without using one yourself that’s on you.

how so? I think it’s absolutely perfect that what was once emblematic of corporate overreach into our lives would be welcomed as preferable to the current state of affairs. Clippy didn’t want to sell your data to bounty hunters, he just wanted to help.

We don’t discuss companies screwing us here but us screwing companies.

I think the clippy movement is cute so yes I’m wearing the mask, just let me know when we’re blowing up parliament.

more than cheap enough to throw a year at it.

I’ve honestly never wanted anything you couldn’t find on public trackers though, but was still worth the experience figuring it all out.

they claim 3% overhead, I bet you could get pretty deep before noticing.

and run Proxmox inside that VM

not from scratch but using current infrastructure in a way that makes disrupting it suicide for the corporate internet.

Why isn’t there a similar service for TV and movies?

Because the Artists involved don’t see the royalties in those industries. They’ve already been paid and the rights holders want to extract every drop of profit possible. and the sad truth is that splintering streaming worked for a very long time to this end.

I have a 4060 that shreds anything I’ve thrown at it. Linux doesn’t have a problem with anything Nvidia at the moment.

what card are you running that linux has problems with?

I would still keep 11 for work if it truly needs to be 11 and dual boot 10 IoT LTSC for games. it sounds like you’re already doing everything I would suggest to harden it besides only running a local user account.

how dare you

yet somehow Spotify figured this shit out.

I mean they’re still enshittifying for shareholders but not due to lack of content.

They’re just keeping up with inflation like any rational actor would do. Why isn’t your wage doing the same?
