I’m on bazzite with a GTX980, and it’s been working flawlessly, so it’s not age. I assume you did

Thanks, got a new term today.

Someone just removed many lifetimes of CO2 emissions with a couple of lines of code.

Shame that usage will just expand to fill the gap. Thanks late stage capitalism. Degrowth.

Yeah, I was younger then, perhaps less disciplined, and as always, given enough work you can decompile or regenerate anything. Still, I contend, the nature of Perl, powerful as it was, lent itself to unmaintainable messes, and I’m not talking regex’s, which is why it has faded, no amount of get gud withstanding.

I upvoted you because I consider Perl write only (used to know it, now it inspires readable code as a high priority)

Eh, that moment when you get a different error message tho ;)

woof

Wow, valid issue.

Spitballing, potentially a secure app could run memory only, blah, blah, blah. Nope, you’ve given M$ your screen FFS, it’s all over. If you care, move elsewhere, tell your friends…

As you point out, codes are an option, but it’s not a slippery slope, it’s a waterslide.

Not wrong.

My favourite encapsulism of Daoism is…(paraphrased, possibly a profound joke)

Doo Eeeet, Doo EEeet Now!!!

Seriously though, I vote VM under linux. Spin it up for whatever you need, use it less and less, no regrets…

I feel the pain.

Nah, saw someone else doing it and wanted the phrase…

It’s the XY Problem. Champion.

I put the fires out.

You made them worse.

Worse…, or better.

Love me some Zim.

It also exposes a proxy (and a tun), most things you want behind a vpn can use a proxy.

Thought it was something like that, hence needs must when the devil drives

Check here Personally wouldn’t piss on it if it was on fire, but needs must when the devil drives.

Pretty sure it’s in google services which you can turn on, personally think that waters down the point of Graphene if you leave that on, to the point of pointlessness, but some countries seem to live on whatsapp, more’s the pity.

TLDR:

Skip to today, and Big Tech is pursuing the same approach, often in the same states.

They too have funded front groups, hired an armada of lobbyists, donated millions to campaigns, and opened a firehose of lobbying money to replace real privacy laws with fake industry alternatives as ineffective as non-smoking sections.
