I have miniflux setup for RSS feeds, and I'll doom scroll lemmy. For games I emulate old pokemon games. You can also just get lost in your thoughts for a bit too. It can really be good for your brain to just sit with your thoughts for a while.

The issue isn't how it's built or based on its that Microsoft can use its control of the os to make it extremely difficult to avoid it.

You can edit the /etc/fstab or setup systemd mounts so all the files are mounted at the correct spot at startup. Different drives are mounted to folders on Linux instead of drive letters like on windows. Before you reboot, make sure everything works by running mount -a otherwise you will have to rescue the system

Native English speaker. I learned some French in school and enough Japanese to get through a judo match. I struggle to retain other languages. Everywhere I go everyone speaks English and it's hard to justify learning a new one even everyone in a 1000 mile radius speaks English.

Devs understand http and json way better than imap and http can support modern security protocols like oidc which standards imap doesn't support which can make using foss email in a corporate environment

If you are using nixos try home manager. Otherwise Ansible is nice for plopping templates and files into your own home directory

Yesterday I couldn't download stuff from Ansible gateway because my lists blocked the object storage URL but there's a query log in both tools that makes troubleshooting easy and Adguard has a disable protection button that can disable filtering and can disable it for a set amount of time so you don't forget to turn it back on

The open source initiative defines what open source means and states it can't discriminate against any person group or field of endeavor which I read as if it restricts who uses it, it isn't open source

I have had better luck with Linux updates applying faster and they are more reliable than Windows. You can customize your desktop to have whatever theme you want. Also the privacy benefits are great too

It you have a functioning dual boot don't worry about it. Next install it's worth looking in into and pretty easy to setup. It has trim support for ssds and is way easier to resize on a live system than lvm with another filesystem

I don't steal your memes I share our memes

There are already licenses like this. Namely the sspl and the bsl. Id argue they drive away more contribution than they protect devs. Especially sspl because it's not clear if I have to open my entire automation repo if I give a 3rd part contractor access to a web app. Also they are not open source since they restrict who can use it
