I think toilet paper is better suited for wiping one’s ass, and flushes better, but this will do in a pinch

A big benefit of encryption is that if your stuff is stolen, it adds a lot of time for you to change passwords and invalidate any signed in accounts, email credentials, login sessions, etc.

This is true even if a sophisticated person steals the computer. If you leave it wide open then they can go right in and copy your cookies, logins, and passwords way faster. But if it’s encrypted, they need to plug your drive into their system and try to crack your stuff, which takes decent time to set up. And the cracking itself, even if it takes only hours, would be even more time you can use to secure your online accounts.

On Linux, my installs always had a checkbox plus a password form for the encryption.

66 accounts at a minimum. Possibly more

If distro hopping happens more than once a week, please stop hopping immediately and dial 911 as this is the sign of a very rare and serious symptom

plays more upbeat music

I think with more adoption, a lot of Linux’s friction against more adoption will be resolved faster and for more people and use cases. Gaming is already at a point where you can practically play more games than you’d ever have the time or energy for.

I see your point. It’s much weirder to say one thing is also the middle thing. It’s probably much safer to say you have a middle name only if you have an odd number of names greater than one. You safely (IMO) have two middle names if you have an even number of names greater than two.

Well, if you have just 1 name, then technically, it’s your first, middle, and last name at the same time

You’re right. I can’t recall the other utility’s name. System Monitor is fantastic, but I just wish I could set the niceness and all that like you could on the old utility.

Well KDE had this awesome process management tool, I think it was called System Monitor or something. You could tune process priorities with IO and CPU. They deprecated the tool though, I think because nobody wanted to port it to QT6

EDIT: It’s not System Monitor. I can’t recall the name, but there used to be an app that let you set niceness / priorities of your processes.

So they can eat a snake? I wonder if they have special adaptations for being bitten by or eating a venomous snake

I tried the one on the play store

Should be plenty fast enough to handle Gnome or KDE. I think you’ll also want ZRAM because presumably your RAM won’t be much and your storage will either be slow or limited. Either way, it wouldn’t hurt to enable.

I think both DEs are very touchscreen viable, with the possibility that you may have to configure a teeny bit, like adding a virtual keyboard

God I want call screening like Google has it. If I don’t have the number in my history or contacts, just quietly screen the call, hang up if it’s a scam and buzz me if they reply and are not obviously a scam.

This is what Pixel phones can do. Samsung has the screening thing but it’s manual and it’s not nearly as good

QC in tech and in business is generally ubiquitous to mean quality control though

Look, there must be limits. The amount of sex-demand one would get from doing something like this is beyond what any person could survive

There’s a smoky garlic cheese I get from my local grocery store quite often. If I remember what it is, I’ll update this comment here

Edit: Brllavitano Garlic and Herb is one of the cheeses

Well, in tech, if you have experience, that tends to be the biggest deal by far and can often do all the lifting on its own. But hiring managers also appreciate certs and formal education, especially if you don’t yet have much experience.

It would likely give you an advantage Vs some other person they’re considering with your level of experience.

There’s always a new 9 year old, 11 year old etc. and always a new gamer of any age, who hasn’t ever bought the game. Same with No Man’s Sky and Minecraft.

You’d likely make way more if you separate games and DLC, but some companies seem to be fine sticking with just the one. You will still make money as you keep adding things to your evergreen game

It seems like common cynicism. Mozilla adds this feature, as not to yield major features to other browsers. Mozilla’s lets you natively have lots of different AI solutions to pick from.

Not every feature is for everyone. Not every feature is done being improved on at release.

And in spite of popular opinions, organizations don’t do just one thing and then do just the next thing and the thing after that. Organizations can and do focus on and prioritize many things at the same time.

And for people who are naysaying AI at every mention, it has a lot of great and fascinating uses, and if you think otherwise, you really should try them more. I’ve used it plenty for work and life. It’s not going away, might as well do some nice things with it.
