I’ve used old computers for phasing out certain social networks - e.g. I’d block Facebook on my main computers, and only access it on my old laptop. That’s been quite effective. You could do that, and just use Linux Mint or Xubuntu on that old laptop. Very real learning necessary, and you do manage to break it somehow, it’s not a big deal.
For me, as someone who’s not into esports-games, I just expect games to work on Linux now, and they nearly always do. The exception has been a couple of old or obscure titles that run fine in a virtual machine. I’m not running any fancy version of Linux, just Mint, and the only thing I do to get them to work, is install them on Steam. Proton is amazing.
If you are into esports-games, though, there’s a risk that they’ll require kernel-level anticheat, and Linux does not do that.
Exactly. And the style, while it’s pretty and cool looking, works together with the paper-thin characters to give this introspective muffled and artificial feel to all of his works.
I kind of find the gimmicks to be the most enjoyable parts of his movies. They’re also very pretty.
Good question, it’s a lot easier to be negative. I enjoy Tarantino movies, A more high brow movie I liked is The Act of Killing, I liked the HBO series The Deuce, ehm… this is hard.
Nolan movies are mid
I’ve heard poor voters are often swing voters, and possibly likely to swing against him
They did use Mint in a previous video, and in the comment field on Youtube there’s rumors he’ll be trying Kubuntu since Pop was so buggy.
turns out I don’t mind being confused :p
there’s an order you’re supposed to read them in?
I think I know what you mean. There is a lot of focus and attention being put on the shittier kind of masculinity these days – by some because they hate it, by others because they want to convince the world that it’s actually great and the key to unlocking a golden age.
Even though we don’t talk about better kinds of masculinity, I think that most people just know intuitively that they exist, though… unless they’ve just had horrible luck in life.
Yeah, I’m also enjoying that. I’ve been working my way through Catch 22 as well, and the humor has a bit of the same dryness, but I wonder if this book has a little more humanity to it.

oh, well in that case I’m not sure what they could have done, aside from being clearer that this was a threat that users had to be aware of
Maybe, or maybe there’s just a bit of a gulf between the public-facing proper morality and what happens in private in these kinds of communities.
Post-apocalyptic tale of tech-priests, kind of. It starts slow, and then you get used to it.
“When the police comes knocking on your door, you can’t just blame Proton”
obviously, but the ideal we should be working towards is that privacy is the default, right? The more normal it is to have this kind of privacy, the less suspicious it is.
are they legally required to store the credit card information?
Serious answer: when american-style christian conservatives use the word “homosexuality” they’re talking about gay sex. This is also why they think homosexuality is a choice.
Expecting everyone to be good at opsec is not a practical solution - making it the problem of the company that can and should hire people to be good at opsec, is.
I dunno, by that way of thinking there are plenty of ways of dividing up humanity and saying “if all those people died, the world would be a better place” - I don’t know how constructive it is, though. There’s nothing about being a man that prevents us from being good people, though there may be some things that make it harder
yeah no, I can’t really disagree with that. I also don’t feel like re-watching any of his movies - in fact i was interrupted in the middle of Oppenheimer, and don’t even feel like finishing it
