It finally happened. My ‘dumb’ TV died for good. Looking for recommendations on a new TV. I’ll be hooking it up to a media PC anyway, but I still want a TV with a good panel and absolutely no microphones, cameras, or baked in ads (Looking at you roku). If anyone knows any good ‘dumb’ TV’s too, I’d be very...
Lots of people are opposed to smartphones but they are fine in my opinion as long as they get checked frequently and you don’t allow social media until a certain age.
I’m working on a some materials for a class wherein I’ll be teaching some young, wide-eyed Windows nerds about Linux and we’re including a section we’re calling “foot guns”. Basically it’s ways you might shoot yourself in the foot while meddling with your newfound Linux powers....
Hello, whenever I try to download the Windows.iso from Microsoft, it blocks me because I’m using a VPN. I don’t really want to buy proxies or anything for this. I tried to download it off public WiFi but it was way too slow. I only need Windows for updating the EC firmware on one of my older laptops....
For the past few months I have been working on a simple windows notepad like text editor. It’s nothing special, but when I first switched to linux I looked around and it took me a while to find leafpad. Unlike leafpad however, Janus uses gtk3, a much more modern toolkit then gtk2, it can display and modify binary data, and it...
Well naming the flipper zero isn’t a bad thing, as far as I’m concerned the flipper zero is far too streamlined so all the removed on “hacking” tiktok do shit like spam your phone with pairing requests. the bad thing Trudeau is doing(and the reason I don’t live there despite having citizenship) is taking away your God given right to own a gun for personal and property protection. The dumbass thinks he can take the guns successfully but in reality the innocent civilians only wanting to protect themselves will give their gun up to comply with the law, but the criminal with the gun is going to keep it and sell it or harm someone with it.

For what i heard, a lot of people on the Linux community use Krita for image manipulation, even though, it’s intended for digital painting, and GIMP is the one intended for image manipulation, because people don’t like the GIMP’s UI....
I move cocaine across the border, so when I then supply it to dealers I will drone deliver from about 1km away. I have an ardupilot plane on standby circling in the air in case the guy runs off with the drugs so I can tail his car and a DJI drone which carries the cocaine itself(usually 1-2lbs). After the guy gets the drugs and the money is attached to the drone, I will start moving to as far as my drones can reach(5 miles or so) and then bring the DJI home because it’s the quickest to die. I’ll then land the plane and confirm the money is there. Overall the process takes about 1.5 hours and it’d be pretty anonymous
