Will you talk to my bosses? They’re addicted to arbitrary KPIs and rank & spank.

Chicagon here. Indiana is 100% the south.

Never heard of this, but it sounds really neat. Can it actually replace ddg in my daily life?

CumBroth and oldfart, thank you for being internet heroes. Soulless is the best.

Ddclient has done the trick for me, and my registrar supports it with an API

I use ddg to search for things in my area all the time. I just use near instead of near me.

I’m not google free though. I pay for YouTube premium and have a couple Gmail addresses.

I think they’ll all get their companies to pay for security details and armored cars. It’ll make them feel even more self-important.

I call it butter fuss. Yours is better.

I use unbound with pi-hole inside an Ubuntu lxc container. No additional device needed.

Lead us to salvation tech jesus!

I have bazzite on my daughter’s machine. I still had to enable compatibility for other titles. It’s not a huge deal if you know it’s there, but it can be a stumbling block for someone testing the waters.

Valve needs to enable Proton by default.

Take my money! All of it!

Tbf, I wasn’t a leemy user when we met. But I agree. She has terrible taste in men.

Our wives must know each other. Me recently: it’s not useless junk! It’s a CD tower NAS with 10 base t token ring capability! The guy who ran a bbs in my local calling area had one that served up Warez in 1997! I was a very early adopter of mp3. I used the original program released by the fraunhoeffer Institute to rip my friend’s metallica bootlegs and upload them for extra leech credits. It would take half a day to encode 128kbps mp3 files on my non-mmx cyrix 6x86, and I could only store 1 CD worth of mp3s at a time on my 800mb hard drive. Besides, I got a really good deal on it!

You delicious bastard! Thanks for the rook tip.

I get it. Date your distro, marry your browser.

I miss the level of customization you could do in Vivaldi, down to minute details. But I don’t miss it enough to put up with ads and tracking nonsense.

I started on Firefox back when it was a beta called Phoenix. I eventually moved to chromium based browsers like the rest of the world, but now I’m back. I’ve come full circle!

My wife didn’t even notice when I turned on the pi-hole. She also told me she thinks there’s a virus on her phone.

I made the switch from Vivaldi back to Firefox recently. I loved Vivaldi, but I’m happy with Firefox too.

I think it’s a delusion of grandeur.
