People tend to overreact when something changes. It is normal.

There are! And a lot too!

The thing is: São Paulo is a city made mostly to walk. Going by car is a nightmare, and public transportation (the metro) is quite good. The center of it all, the most iconic place, the "avenida paulista" is quite iconic, but full of gray. The main attraction are the buildings, which are huge. I'd say most of them are banks. And the more you go around, the more you feel the need of green places.

It's a big city, there are some huge murals and street art, but it feels cold. As if it was put there just to check a mark on a "good city needs this" list, but not as natural evolution of the city.

The things I've felt there:

  • Huge city, truly makes you feel small
  • The floor, walls and sky are all gray, all the time
  • People are stressed and running to go from place A to place B
  • Lots of homeless people, everywhere. Not a shelter around nor anything close to help those people.

Thank you for the links. I've been there recently, and everything felt cold and gray. I could not really understand why, since all of Brazil feels so charming, green and vivid. Maybe your argument explains a part of it: since there is no advertising, there aren't many colors on the streets (it might've been my impression, tho').

In the nintendo direct, when they were talking about the extra usb-c port, they've mentioned it could be used to connect a usb-c camera. Their camera announcement came way later.

Maybe there is hope?

That's flux, isn't it?

Yep, ded. So sad.

It is a lot of fun! Right now I'm back to arch, since I don't have a lot of time, but funtoo does right those older decisions in gentoo which do not make sense in these day and age. And the updates are fast, really fast, since they use git!

The downside is the docs aren't as good. Not even close. The wiki for gentoo is a great source of information.

Gentoo isn't cool anymore. You should switch to funtoo, so you can have fun too!

I've been using kagi for a few months (6 according to my bank). It is paid. It is great. It's so good I've switched my wife to it since Google was giving her a lot of garbage (she's a non techie) and she says "it feels like Google used to be. The answers are what I was looking for. I forgot I was using Kagi"

Would that be possible? How would other (normal network) instances federate with you?

What about cryptomator for encryption and syncthing for syncing files to another place? Not exactly a backup per se but it works reliably.
