It’s pretty well traveled and established so support for it is pretty easy. Fedora comes in both KDE and Gnome varieties. Debian based, though it uses dnf instead of apt for package installer, but that’s not hard. IMHO it’s a good sweet spot of a release cycle. It’s big enough that issues reliably get ironed out before they hit the stable version, but doesn’t trail kernel updates for too terribly long.

Fedora KDE should fit the bill, I think.

I’m right there with ya 😂. They all are IMHO, but society seems to have applied a sliding scale based on how popular a given religion is.

It isn’t dead?? This ruins my day.

At the end of the day I guess it’s about brand respectability (same reason some religions are cults and some aren’t, IMHO)

This is something that I learned after having kids. There are more things I want to do than I have time to do them. I needed to learn the skill of being selective because time is a zero sum game, unfortunately.

Author was Ivy educated I take it?

I’m not one to say we need hellish prison conditions to really punish inmates. I’m all for treating inmates humanely, but the least we could do is be consistent about it, right?

If this is the standard of inmate handling, fine. If there is a disparity of how Maxwell is treated vs how another person might be treated for a similar security level, as what seems to be the case here…that’s a big problem and is rightly being scrutinized.

Yeah, good to do for web ui, but none of my friends and family ever use the web ui. They are all on TVs. VPNs are probably easier to setup than mTLS if you’re having people use their computers.

Been using micro.

Oh, I didn’t mean to say I was using Plex there. Jellyfin + domain + reverse proxy is what I do for both Jellyfin and Seerr. I was just saying people who say “wireguard is the only way to go” aren’t taking into account all workflows, like sharing with family and having them connect via their TVs.

I also just don’t want family and friends on my home network all the time, haha.

Is it? I’ve heard it is fine as long as you are running a reverse proxy, using https, and following the conventional wisdom.

Exactly, I am not going to troubleshoot VPNs with my mother in law when they have an issue.

Seriously! I completely melted.

Yeah, this is a recipe for disaster.

Maybe there are benefits in that boys whom otherwise would be just lonely and alone find that they can have conversations with the void/hivebrain. But the “relationship” aspect of this is just more bad news for the overall psychology of our kids.

Chambers noted that chatbots are, by default, submissive, and reassure and reaffirm people’s thoughts because “they want you to like them”. “On top of this you can create your perfect ‘person’, moulding not only how they look but how they respond to you, how they treat you, and you can start and stop the relationship on a whim. This isn’t real life – and these instant gratification behaviours seeping into real life will have consequences.”

Yeah, that seems not good.

It is taco Tuesday, afterall

I do both. Wireguard VPN for anything that’s just me. Expose via nginx proxy for things that are shared with friends and family.

I know scammers will get people to install remote access programs on PC, but hadn’t heard of it on Android. It does seem like some kind of middle ground though…

This is embarrassing but Goosebumps. I think I watched an episode that just caught me off guard while I was in a strange place (first sleepover at a friend’s house) and the super campy episode freaked me right out.

Runner up was poltergeist. My older sister thought it was very funny that it was rated PG and so I saw it when I was maybe 7 or 8. 😂

I’m saying Linux has a community that likes to talk about tweaking their systems, trying new things, discussing software, discussing distros, etc; Windows does not have users that do that for various reasons. It’s not shade on Linux at all, but to say that they don’t have a community talking about something as mundane as an OS is probably fine for them. I am glad we have the community and user engagement we have surrounding Linux.

I mean, that’s kind of good for them. Not having a creative community that has content to post about means they are just using the OS. The OS is out of the way. I’m guessing the level of comments that Linux gets are more likely to happen on niche forums like powershell or autohotkey or whatever. I dunno, I love my Linux, but do wish it were a little more normal and boring sometimes.
