I mean it’s right there, I didn’t have to click on anything.

Why would you not?

Nice! I shall give that a try later on

I use it for audiobooks already, does it do podcasts well? As in, do I need to download the podcasts somehow and put it in like an audiobook?

I have tried it tbh. It’s not as bad as people make it out to be, I was just making a joke.

It’s just much more resource heavy than those headless Linux servers. Maybe windows server can be headless too, but I haven’t looked into it much

Windows Server 2016.

Nah just joking, Ubuntu Server 23.10

While I agree this is bad, do people still use messages? In my country everyone uses WhatsApp or Telegram.

The only time I open the messages app is to get OTPs or something.

I mean, it’s not that hard to just don’t. If anyone asks, just say I don’t use Facebook. And if they bitch, then so be it.

If they share you Facebook links, click it if you must, but don’t log in. If you can’t watch the video because you don’t log in, then too bad.

If it’s for work, then create a work account if absolutely necessary, but don’t use it for your personal shit.

It’s really that easy.

Something about Louis just strikes me as extremely untrustworthy. I’m not sure what it is, but it’s definitely there.

Fairphone is also not available in every country.

Fair enough. But their products can be flashed with open spurce firmware, like klipper and marlin. That should remove any spying that would happen.

Of course, if you’re worried about spying, don’t get the closed source stuff like bambu or whatever, but there are those where you can just flash a new firmware on it.

Genuinely, why do y’all hate China printers? I mean, I’m not a big fan of China and their policies as well, but this “I don’t want China products” seems mildly racist to me. I wanna know y’all’s point of view.

I think we should just deal with the consequences. Make a plan, go for it, and deal with whatever happens. The only time you reload is when you die. Or when something REALLY bad happens.

Save scumming kinda spoils the fun and removes a lot of the tension.
