Healthcare. I’m in IT.
Some people prefer offices, others not. My employer gave us the option of where we work, and it’s been working out very well. About 5% chose to be in the office, another 10-15% are hybrid, the rest are fully remote. With proper support from management, it works great.
I’m indifferent to them. I use their products, but I’m not a huge fan. I use them because I dislike the alternatives more.
I’ve been considering trying to degoogle myself, but honestly it would be complicated, and there’s a wife-approval factor that likely hinders that. We have multiple Chromecasts, Next hubs, etc around the house, and my wife likes the ease of use. I am slowly building up a home assistant instance, but still tying it into the Google home integration for ease of wife approval.
I use what works best for me, and right now most of those options are from Google.
Interesting. Looks like perhaps your boot loader isn’t properly pointing at your root partition.
I’m assuming you’ve just done the install and never successfully booted, yes? In that case, you can try to re-run the installer, or try rescue mode and try repairing the bootloader.
Are you doing dual-booting, or is this system dedicated to Linux?
Same situation, I packed up my Xbox because we’re looking to move. Cancelled Game Pass Ultimate sub for now, but maybe I don’t end up resubscribing.
Fair, but I meant updates from the original manufacturer.
You gain very little from security because nobody is targeting you…
It’s not about being targeted, it’s about being caught in the big fishing net that scammers are throwing. You don’t have to be targeted to have security concerns.
If a phone isn’t receiving regular security updates, I won’t use it. My Pixel 5a just got replaced because it’s coming up on end of support. My new Pixel has 7 years of support, so I feel a lot better about keeping it longer.
My phone has a passcode, so does my password manager and my MFA app - all different passwords. Those are the only ones I need to remember, so it’s not too bad.
Probably not ideal, but to break that someone needs to A) physically get my phone, B) unlock my phone, C) unlock my pw vault, and D) unlock my MFA app. I’m fairly confident in my setup.
Same, but my seeds are stored in a separate vault from my passwords. Seems like having MFA and passwords in the same place defeats the purpose. I used to let keepassxc auto fill MFA tokens, but finally changed to a separate app.
I use it for my work mail. I can’t speak to their privacy, but I think it’s ok. So far as I know they haven’t done anything stupid, and all the connections are only from my device, no cloud intermediary.
I do like that it allows you to only apply the ActiveSync policies to the app instead of the entire device. If my employer remote wipes my device, it only impacts the app.
Apple ][e, it became “mine” in 90 after we moved. It’s still at my sister’s house, needs anew drive cable (we think). I bought a P2 350MHz a few years later so I could do something useful…those were the days…
First phone was (I think) a Razr, in 03. My dad was more than happy to buy me a phone so he wasn’t worried about me driving back and forth from college.
I did see another report that it’s just a component in Edge. Unfortunately I don’t have that link handy right now.
There’s basically nothing categorical that can’t run on Linux…
From a desktop standpoint, I agree. From a business server infrastructure standpoint, I disagree completely. We run tons of software that doesn’t run on Linux. Maybe there are alternatives, but there are other aspects in play (integrations with other services, vendor pricing, etc).
It’s not just desktops that people worry about.
That doesn’t make it right.
And not everyone can dump Windows for Linux. We run a lot of software that requires Windows. Changing is impractical if not impossible.
Mozilla seized an opportunity to bring trustworthy AI into Firefox, largely driven by the Fakespot acquisition and the product integration work that followed. Additionally, finding great content is still a critical use case for the internet. Therefore, as part of the changes today, we will be bringing together Pocket, Content, and the AI/ML teams supporting content with the Firefox Organization.

How do you interpret that?
This is the way.
I started by just eating less. I cut portions and started counting calories. I did the math and started staying under my number, and the pounds just melted off.
A couple months later, I added biking and walking. I’m trying to walk at least 30 minutes daily, which is just a nice break from everything.
I’m down 120 pounds. I want to drop more, but I’ve been pretty stationary for the past 3 months or so. I’m already a new man, and my doctor says I’m fine where I am. I’d like to drop another 10 just to be solidly below 200 for the first time in decades.
I went to a personal trainer for some ideas on exercises, and I need to fit those workouts into my schedule. I haven’t done that yet, but I need to.
Yes, early 40s, midwest.
My mother wouldn’t let me take my driver’s test without leaning to drive manual. My first car ended up being a manual, which ensured that no one ever borrowed my car.
I have a pair of Sony WH-1000MX4 over the ear headphones, and I just got some Shokz OpenRun bone conduction headphones. They’re both great. I put some thicker pads on the Sonys, and they’re very comfortable. The Shokz are mainly for when I’m biking or need to take a call while driving (they don’t interfere with my helmet, and they leave my ears open). I also can’t use earbuds, they just don’t stay and they’re not comfortable.
You can’t reason someone out of a position they didn’t reason themselves into.
Yeah, rough day. Reading shitposts and laughing at all the other orgs that were down…it was a blast.
