That’s not freedom of speech.

Freedom of speech means you can criticize the government without fear of repercussions.

Last I checked, reddit ≠ government

Because kei trucks are obviously death traps

sideeyes motorcycles

AI.

This is just a list of “but I’m not winning so it’s not fairrrrrrrrrr” whining (whinging?)

Yeah, so I’ve heard 😕

I use SMS Backup/Restore, it saved my ass during my divorce.

I’d love a FOSS version that can handle RCS…

My mistake. The concept of “doing taxes” is usually US-specific, I don’t really hear about that kind of thing from users in other, more civilized countries.

Genuinely curious though… Why use a VM for taxes?

Thanks for the new rabbit hole 😂

You do your taxes on a VM? FreetaxUSA works just fine on Linux.

I mean, I pirated the Windows 10 installation on my gaming PC. Massgrave scripts helped out though, so there’s that.

That said, I’m wiping Windows soon and installing LMDE. It’s the last Windows PC in my house (minus W11 work laptop - that doesn’t count though).

Remember, there’s absolutely nothing wrong with buying a used 7th gen Intel PC and filling that with [insert drive of choice]. An i7-7700T is still more powerful than even the newer Synology units.

So you built your own NAS, then. NAS is just an acronym, “Network Attached Storage”. Not a singular line of products.

That said - I also feel the same way about Synology and the other “all-in-one NAS” brands. Expensive for what they are, which is essentially an incredibly cheap PC with a built in toaster. I built my NAS out of a 2014 Mac Mini (running OMV) and a Sabrent USB-C 4-bay drive dock, and even full of WD Reds, that entire rig is literally half the price of a DS920+. And more powerful.

We have a couple Apple TVs. As much as I dislike the walled garden, they are very good for what they are.

No.

I got my 7900XTX for MSRP in 2023 and have no plans on “upgrading” any time soon. The same PC’s 5800X3D is also showing no signs of letting up, and given the tariff bullshit going on right now, I plan on keeping it that way for as long as possible.

Windows 10 LTSC gets updates for a while longer. I forget the exact number, but I wanna say it goes into the 2030s?

I’ve been daily-driving Linux Mint (LMDE 6) on my Thinkpad T14 G1 for almost a year now. At this point, that laptop is easily the most dependable machine I’ve ever had. My gaming PC is the last remaining Windows machine in my house. Recently I’ve been making sure everything is backed up (Syncthing is great for this) and finding alternatives for programs that don’t have a Linux version.

My plan is to create images of both my SSDs (500GB & 2TB, both NTFS 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️) onto a 4TB hard drive. Then start from scratch, migrating data from the images (Steam games, config files, personal documents I may have missed, etc) when/if I need it.

My UDM has this capability. I’ve blocked quite a few countries that it logged as trying to get into my network. Great little internet cylinder.

I haven’t experienced this, oddly enough. Many of my compose files have comments, and they’re still visible 🤔

Let us know if you run into more snags! I’m happy to try to help out. I also revised my comment above several times last night and this morning as I was really tired and kept forgetting details 😅

The other thing to note is the “Scan Stacks Folder” option in the drop-down menu. I haven’t really needed to use it as Dockge tends to find my compose files on its own, but it’s worth mentioning.
