I guest it wasn't "in the cards" for me
fylo··on Danube's record low levels force shutdown of Hungary's only nuclear plant
Every power source has trade offs, bud. They call solar renewable, but in fact panels have a shelf life, and take valuable finite resources and energy to manufacture. This is what climate change activists like to ignore /s
fylo··on Keychron announces first open-source firmware for gaming mice
Its very easy to source switches, soldering kit and skill curve for this particular repair is short. Plus you can even end up with better performing mouse switches

Are you trying to be ironic?
fylo··on Bacteria found in the human intestine capable of improving muscle strength
For me personally, as I've gotten older I have continued to eat better and more consistently than I ever did earlier in life. I think the long term study of your own life tends to show you that diet is one of, if not the, primary factor in short and long term health and well being.

Based on history of this type of attack, it can also be true with a valid certificate ;)

Unless they have fixed it you used to be able to change stuff really quickly after install before it locked it down due to activation.
fylo··on Trump says Venezuela’s Maduro captured after strikes
They have probably already been working on this in the lead up to their forceful engagement. It is a pretty standard state department et. all tactic
fylo··on Linux is good now
I tried bazzite but ended up on cachyos. The whole layered / immutable thing got a bit annoying. I'd rather just run snapshots and manage my packages more traditionally
fylo··on On privacy and control
I believe there is some support for the API although its not perfect.
fylo··on Asahi Linux with Sway on the MacBook Air M2 (2024)
I liked Ubuntu and variants back when it first came out and I was newer to Linux but it didn't take long for me to realise there always seemed to be a better option for me as a daily driver. To me its like an new Linux user OS where a lot of stuff is chosen for you to use basically as is. Even the name Kubuntu where the K is for KDE but on other distros you would just choose your DE when you install.
fylo··on I sell onions on the Internet (2019)
A picture paints a thousand words
fylo··on Meta is using the Linux scheduler designed for Valve's Steam Deck on its servers
Bazzite is nice but its not very CLI centric I think because of the immutability. Its a great OS, but I found Cachy a lot better if you want to work from CLI in normal ways
fylo··on The Going Dark initiative or ProtectEU is a Chat Control 3.0 attempt
The majority of people were not wearing the proper masks, nor were they mandated or even in great supply. As I said, it was theatre.
fylo··on The Going Dark initiative or ProtectEU is a Chat Control 3.0 attempt
Masks and protocols around them were largely just theatre though. Only very expensive n95 or better type masks, which were properly fitted and handled would actually provide any sort of protection from covid. Even the eventual proponents of masks initially were against the idea as in many ways many of the responses to covid were directed politically, not practically.
fylo··on TP-Link Tapo C200: Hardcoded Keys, Buffer Overflows and Privacy
Don't put them on untrusted networks. This always seemed obvious to me.
fylo··on Native vs. emulation: World of Warcraft game performance on Snapdragon X Elite
Asahi remix?
fylo··on 8M users' AI conversations sold for profit by "privacy" extensions
Let's say we don't trust ublock. At the very least it is still blocking ad networks which do reduce internet performance and are vectors of exploitation, so it is still adding value whether you trust it or not.
