Try reading on your couch instead

Poorly, I setup Mint while I was in town, a couple weeks later it won’t boot, can’t troubleshoot that kind of thing from out of state, so… Yeah

Complain that other people aren’t doing anything, apparently

Rider gang show up

Except it clearly doesn’t produce the same result every time. You’re not making a good case for whatever you’re trying to say.

IMO Tile is fine because usually you forget where something is because you left it there, and so your phone will tell you where you left it, you really only need a network if the thing moves after you left it somewhere.

The issue with option one is that scammers get old (or not technical) people to do stuff when they don’t know what they’re doing and click the box not knowing what they just did. So yes very frequently they need to protect people from themselves because they’re dumb, but I still expect banks to do business with those dumb people, sooo… Option 2 it is.

No you can’t. Just use a main stream browser.

Postgres doesn’t need that much ram IMO, though it may use as much as you give it. I’d reduce it’s ram and see how performance changes.

It’s blinking

Honestly I think we’ve been there for a while. The only difference now is that it’s very easy for anyone to fake something, which might actually force us to face it? Or not who knows.

Yeah in a PR I would probably reject this for being too clever. Before clicking I expected the image to start at 100mb or more, but it’s already under 50, who cares at this point?

https://www.inoreader.com/ used it for years it’s great!

Why no real db? Those other 2 features make sense, but if the only option you can use sacrifices the 3rd option then it seems like a win. Postgres is awesome and easy to backup, just a single command can backup the whole thing to a file making it easy to restore.

I agree with you.

Though I would say that the grid software on its own IS useful. It’s useful to developers, otherwise they wouldn’t use it. Saying it’s useless is like saying a hammer is useless because it’s not a house, it’s only good for building a house (among other things).

I mean it makes sense for error reporting. Lots of apps automatically report errors so that they can be detected easily, which would require internet access.

You can use sailboats if you want, no one is stopping you

Yeah I agree, when old people have trouble using an iPhone which is one of the simplest OSs to use, there’s no way that they can use Linux, yes it’s good but it’s not as simple to use as an iPhone. And they can get help with their iPhone from anyone, or at the Apple store, there’s no Linux store they can get help from.

1 is just not true sorry. There’s loads of stuff that only work as root and people use them.

About the trust issue. There’s no more or less trust than running on bare metal. Sure you could compile everything from source but you probably won’t, and you might trust your distro package manager, but that still has a similar problem.
