If you want IOT stuff so bad, connect it to a separate network that has no internet connection. You can then interact with most devices with something like home-assistant

Don't forget: Files have execute permissions by default!

Then just turn those specific settings off?

Enslaved Linux

Idk, the whole "Megacorp is forced to do reasonable thing, but will still only do so in regions where the law applies" should further encourage people to move away from all their crap.

Not saying you're wrong, but the conditional probability P(Mauled by bear | encountered bear) is way higher than the total probability P(Mauled by bear), and an argument of this kind should be based on the conditional probability.

It just.. lacks features? I couldn't use ZFS or Btrfs, FDE requires third-party software (veracrypt) and lots of other things that I see as standard system utilities (think ssh, git etc.) are not available on a fresh install. And then you're supposed to download and install .exe files from the internet? Since microsoft controls what goes in the windows store, that could provide the same experience as your distro's repositories. But again, most things you want aren't there, and you can't even trust the things that are there. For some reason, a billion dollar company cannot curate a software repository of the same quality as the ones maintained by unpaid volunteers in the Linux world.

So yeah, I think it's just not there yet. Maybe in a few years windows will be a viable alternative for desktop systems.

Gute Tirade, allerdings keine Erwähnung der DB. 6/10

sudo shutdown now

There's no shame in dual booting. Moving all your non-gaming stuff away from windows is a big step in the right direction.

I prefer oat milk

I'm curious as to why Firefox is checking for updates, have you configured it to do so? I've never seen Firefox do that (and it feels weird to have a program sidestep the update mechanism of the package manager)

Isn't professor a higher title though?

virt-manager

By using NixOS and tracking the config files with git

Resistance is futile. You will be torrented

Compatible with any system? AFAIK autohotkey is windows-only
