  • Yeah I also consult with many different clients. Sometimes those clients need me to install sketch software. Thank god I can do this in a silo in Qubes, or it could endanger my other clients.

  • I use Debian. Like I said, video is only sometimes choppy. I usually have a few vlc windows open at one time. Something I've learned is that it will use a lot of CPU even if the video is paused. To stop it, I have to manually set the video source to "none" when I pause a video and leave it in the BG.

    Or just pause the whole VM. Another great Qubes feature

  • The popular opinion of constituents, both in other countries and in the US, is support for Gaza

  • The people who walked out work for other government. They can do a lot more than walk out. They can issue sanctions which force divestments.

  • Its catchy and funny and everyone remembers it once you tell them. In other words, its perfect.

  • Lol wut? Those pros far outweigh the cons. But I guess I don't care about video games?

    I have money on my computer, and I have a company that has customer info. That's enough of a reason for me to want to protect my shit better than running one big, super-vulnerable system

  • I use FreeCAD

  • The point of genocide is eradication. They didn't say that they're trying to take out the leadership. Israel was calling for eradication.

  • Strong no.

  • Fortunately we have a Foss alternative for almost everything

  • The US doesn't supply weapons to countries committing war crimes or genocides. At least, according to its laws it doesn't.

    Unfortunately, the US government constantly violates its own (constitutional) law

  • :(

  • Its my only computer. I couldn't go back to anything else. Every time I double click Firefox, it opens a new VM. When I close Firefox, the VM is destroyed.

    Email is in a separate VM. Email attachments also open in a disposable VM. USB devices are quarantined unless I connect them to a specific VM. Its a game changer.

    Cons: I need as much ram as I used to need when I ran Windows. Watching videos is a bit choppy at full screen sometimes. And I can't play any video games.

  • The cat jumps up the side of the jagged rock wall and sits on a stone that slowly depresses. As it does, the lights go out. Its now pitch black.

    You can hear the meows of the cat fade behind you, and the slow drip-drip of falling liquid in front of you.

  • I have about twice this many VMs and about this many running at any given time.

    I use Qubes btw

  • Depends on the hashing algorithm. Tor implements two, and neither are vulnerable to custom architectures like ASICs

  • You encounter a black cat just inside the entrance to the labyrinth

  • Find me a laptop that draws 200 watts. They're usually about 80.

  • This isn't a place for memes.
