I am using MX Linux (Debian based) and at install I chose FDE, just with the GUI it’s easy to have LUKS+btrfs, nothing special to do. Encryption is done by hardware, your CPU has AES instructions that can encode/decode gigabits/s and is not a bottleneck at all.

nasm? the x86 assembler from the 90s?

I like awk, I started using it in the 90s in university, I’m not a pro, but this is so powerful!

Same. Got burned with a Roku, then a tv with Yahoo! TV.

Now I have a Hisense with google TV, it’s not bad, no ads, apps like Netflix and Disney+ are in Dolby Vision and Dolby Atmos.

My mic is off too 😉

We are already invaded by bots, look at this https://beehaw.org/c/technology@lemmy.ml

About happening for years in Japan IIRC, but in a good way, especially with physically handicape people, they control robots to take order and serve dishes etc in restaurant. It allows people to work, be busy, earn money, etc.

yes because at the time they didn’t know what to do, and gave .su to the .ru guys. For .yu it was also a little bit messy with multiple new countries wanting to control it. This is when IANA made laws to properly handle end of ccTLD like this, .yu does not exist anymore, it will be the same for .io

Yes, there is laws, IANA says that ideally in 3-5 years all the .io will be gone, like the .yu ones, they do not exist anymore.

In a way, I understand, .yu was removed years ago for instance. Here it is because .io is pretty special for geek and all

I had a Samsung colour laser printer, they provided driver for linux, I installed them, everything works, full support for settings etc

on most new laptops, you cannot remove the battery that easily, you have to disassemble the back cover ☹️

Omg I forgot Corel Linux ! I installed it 25 years ago, wow!

my 5680 has absolutely nothing. Checking online I found that the right one is a usb-c 3.2 and the 2 left ones are TB4. IIRC they all support DisplayPort and all support being used as the power input (165W charger), not sure for PD and fast charging a cell/tablet…

True, my latest Dell laptop has 3 “usb-c shaped ports”, there is 0 symbol anywhere close to them or the underside cover, you’re on your own as to what it supports, you have to find the doc online somewhere I guess.

Yes, I’m using QEMU though, no VMware or VirtualBox .

MX Linux (debian based) works perfectly on a usb drive

Well, less and less people post stuff like their vacation pic or food pic etc. Then more and more companies pay to be in your feed, so now your feed is only non-sense stuff like yours, or mine, it does not make sense, I often see posts from stuff not in my country or sometimes not in my language.

I only use FB for Marketplace (really big here), and for some FB hobby groups that replace good old forums. I never publish anything, and only one of my friend still post pictures of their journey, that’s it.

In Canada it is way worst, because every sources deemed news media cannot post/share articles, imagine in the USA if your feed had no news like cnn, abc, nbc, cbs, npr, nyt, etc. but in your feed you see all the alternatives news (read: far-right, conspiracy, pro-russian, pro-musk, anti-ev, etc).

This is our reality in Canada, our facebook feed looks like twitter, full of hate and fake news. I always block them, but there are certainly thousands and thousands of bots posting those kind of thing.

FB is dead.

Yup, the green dot top right

Wtf? My company just gave me a Dell laptop, i7 13800H, 32GB ram, 1tb nvme, etc

Fucking Caml, hate this language 👺
