This isn't even meme, this is exactly how it is. I run this script once a day on my Raspberry Pi NAS:

rsync -va /media/pi5tb/ /media/pi5tb_backup/

shimdidly OP ,

So real. I've always thought music apps like iTunes/Spotify etc. were superfluous when you already have a file system and sym links.

shimdidly OP ,

bullshit-Spotify

The only proper use-case.

shimdidly OP ,

Nothing worth listening to has been produced since 1989 /s

shimdidly ,

So you’re basing an opinion on the world’s basedest, most accurate form of communication

FTFY

shimdidly ,

Not sure what relevance a broken clock has to the discussion or the OP.

shimdidly , (Bearbeitet )

rare times he’s been right about something.

Started a space company, and an EV company. Both longshots, both wildly successful.

Bought Twitter. Laid of 80% of the employees. Still runs totally fine.

Your position is nakedly indefensible. I'd be curious what you think he's actually wrong about.

shimdidly ,

Dismissing a post because of the platform it is posted on sounds pretty racist to me. Judge them not by the color of the greentext but the content of the meme. Or, something like that.

You wouldn’t have Wayland if it weren’t for WONTFIX, ya daft cunts.

16 years later, and it still barely works. Plasma made it a first-class citizen in the last release and I still had to switch back to X11 because a million WONTFIXes later there's so many hacked together solutions just to get it to barely work its insane. How do you mess up copy and paste??

shimdidly ,

The politically-correct version. Will the mods remove this one like they did the last one?

shimdidly ,

Guess I'm the weirdo. Installed Arch with KDE Plasma, changed the wallpaper, installed Steam, accepted the defaults of everything else. Use it as a daily driver.

shimdidly ,

Believes anyone asking for tech support is consciously aware of Windows versions

Lol. Lmao even

shimdidly ,

So I did this. I nuked Windows when I bought a new laptop. About a year later I changed jobs and now needed to use Visual Studio. Now I know why Windows never hassled me for a key when I reinstalled...

We elected a bunch of lawyers to run our country. No surprise then that everything is based around liability and "safety"

shimdidly OP ,

Privacy = freedom. If you don't have privacy, or to the extent you don't have privacy, you are in proportion not free.

It seems to me this is the trade off we are all figuring out how to make. For example, I've considered not having a cell phone at all, but then I find it almost impossible to get a job, or operate in the economy. So I use a custom privacy ROM. I have no illusions that this is perfect, but at least a step in the right direction.

I think the most practical answer is to gain knowledge of the situation, and limit our attack surface. I don't think there's any silver bullets, unless you want to live like the Amish (which, doesn't sound like a bad idea, either. If that's what you want and you can do it, go for it.)

shimdidly OP ,

adblocking DNS

Totally based. Is it a PiHole? We set one up a few years ago. One of the best things we've ever done. Totally worth it when even the inline ads and tracking are blocked on phone apps.

shimdidly OP ,

Agree. Full-doomer isn't for everyone. We can reduce our attack surface, but there's no silver bullets. Just using a good adblocker increases privacy quite a bit, and quite frankly makes browsing the web bearable.

internet ISPs were decrypting traffic

I always thought it was a little sus that the NSA designed a lot of of the ciphers we use today.
