Budapest?

Depends in what field. Proton, at least, doesn’t scan your email contents and metadata to sell it on to advertisers.

Hi. So, not all of the software you use will work on Linux (which btw isn’t a company but to put it simply a family of open source operating systems sharing a common core):

• Affinity don’t offer a Linux version so you will need to try something like WINE to run the Windows versions.

• Blender will defo work, not sure about the others

• Davinci will work, has a Linux version

• VSCode has a Linux version

• File explorers work.

Ubuntu sadly is not what it was.

I’d suggest Pop_OS or Fedora- I think Fedora used to have a media oriented “Fedora Design Suite” version.

libreddit to the rescue

Honestly I don’t mind the price hikes as much as the enshittification of being forced to watch ads again.

Yes. I was wondering about the raw milk issue - if there is an upsurge of H5N1 in cows, possibly without farmers sometimes realising, other times fully knowing but ignoring it for whatever reason, then there will be a surge of H5N1 infections among those drinking unpasteurised milk.

So basically “pasteurisation was found to have worked”.

So are Cholera vaccines

I think the only answer is “Doom”

I am hosting stuff on OVH at the moment. Entry level package is around £1 / mo in the first year.

Why past tense? These remain far more useful than answer phones; or visual voicemail with AI transcription, or whatever. All the info you need, right there. The more I pay for digital services the more I am learning to appreciate how effective these are. Basically we are spending a fortune in development to replicate exactly these.

And here was I thinking locking up a murderer is for the protection of the public…

Slightly misleading title, I was surprised that the Russians advanced to Kyiv with 36 tanks.

Now you put it that way… 😃

That’s pretty cool, I didn’t know!

That’s great, I had no idea!

Slightly wondering whether this is a roundabout way of creating Ad-Free YouTube playback capabilities. “Hey community, we are adding support for ad enabled streams. Would be a shame if you hated that so much you wrote some ad blocking plugins.”

Battery replacement will also boost your CPU performance, it’s worth spending a bit of money on it.

Running PopOS on a 2012 Macbook Air and Fedora on a 2015 Macbook Pro.

Potential common pitfall used to be having to add the Broadcom wifi drivers separately - I had to add them manually for PopOS but Fedora worked out of the box. Honestly PopOS + Wayland totally saved the old little Air and it’s a fantastic machine to use.

You may have to start using some free third-party tools for built-in features that work on the Mac.

I replaced iCloud keychain with BitWarden for password management. You can use Beeper for iMessage - it’s one of the few things to actually support it. iCloud Drive can be accessed via rclone I think but it might be terminal only - mind if you can get it to work via terminal then you can mount it as a folder. You can use Cider as an Apple Music client. I haven’t yet looked into Calendar and Contacts sync with iCloud but you can always export those and import in your software of choice on Linux.
