Hello, with the new AI features being added into Googles services I was thinking of maybe starting a thread about how to remove data from the affected services. I feel like simply deleting my photos from Google Photos most likely wouldn’t be enough of a measure to ensure my images does not get affected or used in these AI...
Yeah. It’s another one of these. But! Here me out! So I have some experience using Linux. Run some VMs for services I run in my home, I switched my surface book 3 (funnily enough) to ubuntu for my work computer as I was getting more and more frustrated by windows 11 and it turned out really good. Was able to completely get off...
Once again for gaming I’ll vouch for Nobara, not because I’ve tried too much else but everything just worked out of the box. No monitor issues, no driver problems, fixes, patches and tweaks pre-applied. Just all around a good experience.
I fucking wish Through the Gorge actually became I real game, I am so sad it was just another Kickstarter scam.
For anyone who wants the origin:
This came from a Facebook meme page titled “Welcome to my meme page” with 330k likes which posted general memes and images in this format. A Kickstarter was launched by “Brother Abernathy” to make it into an actual game titled “Through the Gorge”. The creator claimed to have a team working on it and posted some updates on the Kickstarter page but the updates became more and more scarce over time. Eventually he stopped posting and left the Kickstarter page up with the fans wondering what was going on.
I don’t know about the specifics but went back in every now and then to check in on the progress.
The Kickstarter made $18,415 dollars with nothing being delivered to the backers.
Been using Mullvad for over 10 years, first through my dads account and recently bought my own subscription for a year. Very respectable people and a great service. I recommend this to anyone looking for a VPN.
This is fine for my use case. I don run wifi on my gaming rig but I guess I’ll see if any other things prompt me for password after logging in next time.
Edit: Nope, I have no clue what is even possibly stored in Kwallet, if anything, but it still pops up and requests password. Ironically i went from typing my password 2 times to 3 times by enabling auto-login. I know have to unlock the keyring once I login, and then unlock Kwallet once I try to launch Discord. We love it.
I’ve been using Nobara for some time and it’s amazing. Nice installer and gets all drivers and fixed applied from the get go. Also it is maintained by GloriousEggroll himself.
Felt good the day I told HR they didnt need to invest any more resources to “help” me. I was done and the boss clearly didnt care about having me around so I told them to fire me.
For example, I’m using Debian, and I think we could learn a thing or two from Mint about how to make it “friendlier” for new users. I often see Mint recommended to new users, but rarely Debian, which has a goal to be “the universal operating system”....
Sorry if my irony wasn’t too obvious. It certainly is not supposed to look that way. There are a lot of pages all over the internet that function just as garbage as this, especially on mobile. That’s why I meant it looks “normal” as in not out of the ordinary.

De-google everything. I use a VPN and run LibreWolf with some plugins like uBlock, uMatrix, deArrow and SponsorBlock. Still haven’t gotten around installing Lineage on my phone to get rid of Google there, but at least I run VPN on my phone at all times aswell.
Now since I use LibreWolf it deletes cookies on every shutdown. This is a bit annoying because I have to log back in every time I visit websites. Therefore I run BitWarden and have also allowed some cookies in website settings.
Its not the best privacy solutions but it’s an easy setup for a lot of profit imo.

What could your distro learn from another distro?
