Lengsel,

Native Firefox? I would suggest using Librewolf or Icecat.

Lengsel,

Does DDG still have the same upward trend that they used to before Brave caught on?

Lengsel,

Are Honey's and Mello worth the price? I went to Cartems once and I never went back because of the price.

I'm concerned that fresh made donuts, no pre-mix, are becoming a rare special treat due to how expensive they're becoming. At a certain point the taste of something does not justify the cost.

Lengsel,

You should look at benchmarks in 2 weeks between the 770 and 4060 after it is released. Your 3600 is going to hurt performance if you buy really high end. In today's money, the price of the 4060 matches the original price of the 1060 6GB.

Beyond a new GPU, I would suggest building a whole new computer. If I can partially guess, I would say the 4 core i3 121000 would beat your 3600. I do know that the 12100 matches the 6 core i7 8700K.

One option is buy the best GPU you have extra money to spend on, and then in a year buy build a Ryzen 8000 system when those get released and then put your new GPU in your next system.

To give you an idea about performance, the 4060 Ti beats the 1080 Ti.

Lengsel,

A T570 on eBay or where you can find it.

Lengsel,

Minifree is between double to triple the price of the same laptop on eBay. Libreboot is strictly an ideological matter, it doesn't help with privacy if software installed isn't configured a certain way and also what software is installed.

BIOS is not the bacldoor is. Also, if you don't build your on router, you can't garauntee who your router is sending packets to. Also DNS makes a different. Libreboot does not provide the protection think it does.

It doesn't help that Libreboot laptops are at least 10 years old. Those are some low resolution LCD screens compared the LED and full hi-def.

‘Linux’ Foundation increases number of Microsoft employees in the board of directors to THREE, the only geek in the board has left (or got removed) (techrights.org)

Summary: The Linux Foundation is gradually becoming a shadow of Microsoft, just like the Open Source Initiative, where most of the money comes from Microsoft and the official blog promotes Microsoft, its proprietary software, and Microsoft’s side in a class action lawsuit over GPL violations (with 9 billion dollars in damages...

Lengsel,

OpenBSD, and FreeBSD are 2 excellent operating systems. Zero closed source bits in the kernel or system files.

BSD does not do distributions, each one is their own operating sysyem with their own developers, different source code for each.

Lengsel,

Why you said makes me think the number of votes is wholly irrelevent.

What is interesting or helpful is entirely subjective, it's personal opinion. What is considered misinformation is entirely subjective. That makes me believe the voting count on a post means nothing for indicating the quality.

Considering how any majority of people typically react emotionally rather than have humility and respond with consistant logic, it seems personal opinion on a mass scale is an unreliable gage for quality of material.

Lengsel,

I use Austici because users can have 5 alias addresses, you can delete one and create a new alias, but has a limit 5.

Nobody has my true address, my main address, 100% everyone I email or give out my address are all different aliases. If one alias gets too much spam I delete and make a different one so spam doesn't reach my inbox.

Lengsel,

Anyone serious and fully commited to privacy does not use cell service, they use a VoIP, which requires an app to connect to VoIP provider for calling and messaging, so Phone and Messages can not be used anyways since it's not cell/mobile service.

Lengsel,

If AMD wanted to get real serious real fast about rapidly improving drivers, could releasing Radeon driver source code under AGPLv3 help get mass development and fixes for drivers, while at the same time due to the license make the code untouchable for nVidia?

Lengsel,

I quickly suspected that you were being sarcastic.

I would say for all of BC, might need a million more places to live and then all of the tension will fall off and easier to move to wherever people decide to go.

Lengsel,

Receiver 2 looks very interesting. How do you find it to be playing with a floating gun?

I could see you being interested in Unrecord.

Lengsel,

How old is your system? Would it not be inexpensive enough for you to build a new cheap system for a performance upgrade? What hardware do you need to have a fully functional system working again?

Lengsel,

You can live at ease with not having any debt weighing on you.

I was thinking maybe you could do a 4 core i3 13100, B660 board, 16GB DDR4, and RX 7600.

That would beat a 8700K and Radeon 580.

Lengsel,

I've been using SimpleX for at least 6 months as a full replacement for both Session and Briar and I have gotten a few people over SimpleX.

Now I only use Signal and SimpleX exclusively, nothing else to talk with people.

Lengsel,

You admit that every and all TV news show is bought and paid for to push government agenda and talking points. Well except for independant ones that are entirely donation funded like True North news which allows True North to be more transparent and more honest to to expose and criticize anyone's agenda, and TNC continues to get more donations, hire more people.

Although Rebel News does inflammatory and sensational presentations, there's a couple of reporters I believe will be an instant success once they leave Rebel News sensationalism.

Lengsel,

Both of those statements stand on their own, one does not cancel the other, so there is no contradiction.

In fact, one statement holds true with the other.

Lengsel,

What is it about Reddit that makes it such a juggernaut, even corporations pay attention to outrage on Reddit, and alternatives like Lemmy are whole irrelevent or pointless?

I'm refuse to say that Lemmy is wonderful or excellent, and I refuse to say that Reddit sucks.
