  • I think that is why many countries have primary schooling as a mandatory thing. Because children don't want to do labor they don't value, mental or physical. But we make them do it anyway, because a critically thinking, baseline educated population is important.

  • I've only got one system running it for now, but it has worked well for my 1080ti system. There are usually hiccups with Linux, but they've been small ones so far. Nothing worse than what happens on windows. And yeah it's got a rollback system by default.

  • I don't love that I recognize the art style / pose.

  • It has to be a reference to other posts, or perhaps the professor's name is distinctly Kenyan?

  • I'll be the odd one out, as a relatively new Linux gamer. I almost never shut it down unless I want OS updates. Weeks without an intentional shutdown usually.

    I treat it more like a phone than I do a TV or radio like I saw other people mentioning. Always on, as I left it, running whatever it was running. Screen turns off after 30 minutes of course.

    I don't pay for power, so that's not really a concern for me, and I use it frequently enough when home that most of my time involves the desktop in some way.

  • Many people using a VPN have the same IP address, and cloudflare and others can track that behavior and block those IP addresses. Different sites do it for different reasons, some do it for a little extra security because attacks often come routed through a VPN, some do it to block country specific content like Netflix does.

  • Zero click hacks often find exploits in the victims OS, places where protocols run automatically. Stuff like Bluetooth device identification, wifi, sms protocols. I'm certainly no expert, but they are rare and highly coveted, and nation-states spend a lot of resources finding them. Ethical hackers also look for them, to notify the software/hardware creators and get them fixed.

  • My grandma does the same for Costco('s) lol

  • That's not a smoking gun, that's a shitty chain email joke. It's slightly suspicious but I need more evidence than that.

  • I just used the calc, it's closer to 152 years. Which I assume means acceleration at 1g for about a year to reach .999c, and deceleration for the same time.

    I just confirmed with dV= a*t, a year of 1g(9.8m/s/s) gets you just over the speed of light. I think it's more complicated than that, If I remember right relativistic speeds require more and more energy to accelerate so you can't ever "reach" light speed.

  • 100%. I tested mine with calls and making sure the wifi and Bluetooth didn't go through.

  • You can also buy faraday bags, if you want a phone available but not online. But it's still there physically so burner would still be a good choice.

  • Basically means that the core OS files and systems can't be changed. Everything else is stacked on top, and usually it means that you can rollback to a previous OS version if an update breaks something, without relying on any other image backup software.

    Usually results a more stable reliable system, or at least one that's easy to revert to working.

    The downside being a reduction in flexibility and customizable options, and most programs need to be "containerized."

  • Only 5 arms that I can see lol

  • I don't mind a long install. I tried bazzite on it to match my desktop, just to see, and loading up the Bazzar(app repository) crashed itself, never actually opening. Mostly I just want an Internet/media machine that's cheap, maybe with a few other program options, but really the 2gb Ram is tough to deal with.

  • Might have to give it a shot, I tried a couple different lightweight OSs on my old Chromebook, maybe this one will feel right.
