I guess, no one NEEDS a video streaming platform.
Nobody NEEDS social media, but when a social media does something harmful, they need to be regulated.

That’d be well and good if they didn’t have a monopoly.
many of which wirh anti cheat, it’s not worth making the switch just yet.
I get that. Shit like that is the only reason I stick with a dual boot.
Also, I got a NAS recently with OpenMediaVault and I only have the time to tinker with one thing at a time :P
I also get that. My self hosted gaming server can be a bit of work sometimes.
Any advice on the switch though, or tools you use lmk!
Two things, I’d go with Linux Mint Debian Edition if I we’re you. I’ve found it to be the most compatible with my games, (like 9 out of 10 or so), and have had zero major issues/glitches with it. Plus it avoids the drauam surrounding ubuntu.
The second thing is to keep a separate “home” partition for your documents/pictures/game saves/etc. Mine is [Name]_STC, with the acronym being a nod to wh40k’s Standard Template Constructs. The idea being it isn’t named something generic like “home”, or worse using the home folder.
And anytime I need to back up shit, I just zip the whole partition and put it on a separate drive. If something happens, I copy my standard template construct.

* just ignore that I didn’t again become a millionaire like I said I would. And just ignore all the experience and schooling I started with that others don’t.
And IIRC, he only did so through siphoning off the value of free facebook/craigslist furniture.
It sucks that the only reporting on this is shitty tabloids.
Good. Now make it work for everyone’s tax situation.
For sure, that is still a big part of this.
But a blanket statement pointing to cyclists as the source of the problem is just ridiculous.
The solution for large scale behavioral problems isn’t telling loads of people to do better, it’s systemic change, and in this case that means infrastructure for safe biking. That includes traffic calming measures, separated and protected bike lanes, regulation to reign in vehicle sizes and weight, etc.
What a terrible age to have eyes.
Agreed. I have zero regret.
I have no horse in this race, but the fact that you’re being communicative and taking any responsibility means you’re probably a better mod than most. Admittedly, it’s a low bar but still.
Probably best not to do it again though.

If somebody gets access to your system, they could use that to blackmail you, and/or frame you for distributing said media.
“Give us $X, or we leak and distribute Y media on your behalf, and you will get sued by the corporate goons for shit loads of money”
The only real solution is to completely overhaul IP law, and/or nationalizing funding for the arts. If we’re gonna keep corps that own/produce media, then they should have a very short and limited amount of time to distribute it before it becomes common property of the people.
To me it is ridiculous that companies can even own other companies. The only real purpose of doing so is to play shenanigans with regulations, obfuscate responsibility, and generally deceive.
And for the “corps are people” crowd, owning people is wrong.
Best case scenario, they learn from No Man’s Sky with what few devs they have left. Worst case scenario, the game remains shit, and we all continue to enjoy modded to hell KSP 1/Juno/etc.
Bikes, bike infrastructure, and ebikes are about as carbon efficient as you can get without just straight up walking.
But they’re not really feasible for most people because few cities have enough protected bike lanes and sensible zoning to let it happen.
So we have much easier options.
While this is debatable, the regulation of cars is still a useful allegory for gun regulation.
