Benefit comes after the initial purchase whether you got it pre-built or made it yourself. Since then you can upgrade parts as needed after instead of doing one large system upgrade. So just buying a GPU if that's what you need to upgrade instead of buying a whole new system. Or just dropping in a new CPU if your motherboard supports multiple generations like the AMD boards.

It's one of those big impacts you see going with a replaceable desktop pc over a laptop. Especially if gaming, since if you find you want a a faster cpu or GPU now your only option is just buying a whole new brand new one paying for all the other parts again.

I'll have to play around with this for Linux.

Lot of nice recommendations here. Particularly suspicious package.

Yeah, basically the default windows or Linux pic behavior. When I saw you had to do these additional steps of space bar and selecting images in grid view I was like no... I could have lived with clicking space bar, but having to do the additional step of selecting images or do a folder view adjustment was just too clunky for me haha. It felt like someone trying to explain how downloading a PC game then going through setting options isn't that hard a opposed just downloading and playing a game on a console. My thought why does a simple image preview even need those steps.

I wonder if one possible alternative is getting an old iPhone and Apple Watch and using the iPhone just for setting up and updating the Apple watch. Then use Apple Watch for Apple pay. You don't seem to need any data to use it for paying https://discussions.apple.com/thread/8204935

I think if that works going full GrapheneOS for a degoogled smartphone device and a smart watch for paying might be something I could do.

Yeah, I do like the option of if I uninstall something to get rid of everything so it is back to the state it was before instead all these random misc and now unneeded files. I did some searches and lot of users were wondering why this functionality isn't present already.

Basically I just wish when you hit space while the folder is it grid view it would automatically move to the next image in the sequence instead of stopping at the row it is in.

Having to do steps like change to list view to use up and down arrows to go to the next image in the sequence or columns just seems unnecessary and more conplicated that it needs to be.

Edit: Tried pixea from recommendations and set that to open jpg and pngs by default. It's been perfect.

I tried the dry run but didn't get anything back after running command. I must just have to go the tedious route of deleting comments manually over the year from time to time.

My main device is Windows, but for peripherals for at least keyboards I have moved towards actively choosing those with qmk support since it got annoying needing dedicated software for corsair or Logitech or razor and so on.

Any recommendations on how to mitigate risks like this when it comes to browsing lemmy? Any lite version to see lemmy through without Javascript?

[-] ImaginaryFox@kbin.social 0 points 1 year ago

I did try that, but found that it still remembered site info for accounts I was logged in until fully I closed everything related to the firefox browser. So containers has been easiest solution except for the process of manually creating and then deleting ones I didn't need anymore beyond the one session.

I had used Temporary Containers, but it hasn't been updated since February 8, 2021. Not actively monitored for security by Mozilla either so stopped using it. That addon was a perfect experience though for what I wanted.
