I get better performance on Linux than Windows.

The significantly lower system overhead more than makes up for the translation layer.

I mostly game on Steam, occasionally Lutris. The only thing that just plain wouldn’t work was Control from Gog - I probably could have gotten it to work if I played with the configuration. But I didn’t really care that much.

Do not dban an SSD.

SSDs do not physically store data the way platter drives do. It may reduce the lifespan of the drive.

There are other methods for securely erasing SSDs.

So, like the spherical cow argument?

When you say memory, do you mean RAM or do you mean disk space?

All-day ragù

I’ll be right over

After you dice them up, put them in a dumpster for an additional XP bonus.

That’s funny. I use an old beard trimmer to groom my pets.

Block AI bots, such as OP.

Because he’s a fascist. Obviously.

My problem with Namecheap is that they keep jacking up prices year after year. And trying to upsell me on a million little things.

I’m not OP, but I’m also planning to leave Namecheap.

Can you really call it a bombshell when they’re doing it out in the open? And everybody can see they are doing it? And they are in no way trying to hide it or justify their actions?

I’m waiting to see how he continues to parent the Beaver in this modern, ever-changing world.

You don’t need to argue. You just need to accept that every time you do that you put your life, and the lives of the people around you, in danger. And that’s simply a fact.

I have to laugh at the guide calling itself “complete.”

Yes, it’s got a lot of useful info. Yes, someone reading it can learn a lot about what to do with older computers and what to expect from distros.

But there is so much more that the guide doesn’t cover, haha

The trouble is, tax rate varies dramatically across the whole U.S. We don’t have a consistent nationwide VAT like much of the rest of the world.

Yeah, that’s exactly it. It doesn’t seem bad. It just seems out of place based on the price point and clientele.

It is when they work in intelligence and someone can find out and kidnap or kill their family to threaten them.

Yeah, but normally the MDM is used to prevent security breaches. Not create them.

You’re missing the point. This app is written by outside, for-profit companies who don’t care about data security. And the app is so full of security holes that it means work email and work chat may be skimmed by people outside the organization.

This isn’t a case of “don’t use your work phone for personal stuff.”

This is a case of e.g. “foreign criminal organizations can potentially steal American Social Security databases.”
