Same. i3wm first, or XFCE for a “real” DE.

I am currently running a debloated i3wm rig based on EndeavourOS/Arch and I really enjoy the low mental load of a truly minimal desktop. Only luxury I’ve allowed myself is CLI colors. I’m not ready for B&W yet.

Speaking of thwarting piracy, how about Japan stops slaughtering whales and respecting the treaties they have signed first?

But has Tibet reached a comprehensive agreement with China though?

The 90s are calling, they want their UX back.

mindustry. I’ve kinda quit playing games. But still play mindustry on my ipad. :)

Windev and Wlanguage (French).

It’s almost 2024 and we still don’t have any significant open source project for cloud storage privacy.

Users are responsible for their own privacy.

Having Open Source projects providing the tools for that is extremely important. But ultimately the responsibility lies in the users hands. End to End encryption is the way. My files should 100% be encrypted on my side, with private keys that I own and nobody else. :)

I’m pretty happy with Linux actually. I’ve used a few distros and DMs over the years and honestly we’re at a point in time where it’s pretty nice. A more user friendly and robust connectivity management would be nice, and a few of the file browsers could benefit from a UX revamp. DMs could also enforce stricter design choices by default to gently guide developers towards a consistent UI/UX. But overall it’s quite solid.

The same can’t be said about most of the OSS that goes with it. Most of the apps available for Linux are garbage. I mean, they do some things well obvioulsy, but are overall terrible to use. With their crap UX and a UI stuck in the last century the only reason people use them is they have no other choice and are desperate…

Depends on the type of drives and your needs.

If the drive is big enough to be used as storage/back, get it out and in its own USB enclosure.

If the drive is either too small or you have too may already then :

• SSD : smash it to pieces with a hammer
• HDD : if you’re sure it’s not an hybrid (in which case the SSD process applies) then you can just fill it with garbage or use whatever “erasing” software out there. I would go for an open-source one.

Agreed. I’m currently trying to fix my shoulders. Turns out the fix to “some of your muscles are too powerful and some aren’t enough” is not an easy one and consists mostly in slowly and painfully correcting your posture with targeted exercises. Daily. For months.

I’m almost to the point where I say fuck it, I’ll just train through pain and hopefully it will fix itself at some point. It worked for my tennis elbow after all… XD
