would you rather them do nothing? realistically for the vast majority of people they don’t care enough to do more than this, and it’s atleast SOMETHING to get the ball rolling

I don’t watch anime but I do dislike greedy companies. I have a couple hundred gigabytes to spare, how can I help?

dang. That was supposed to be my go to OS once I got my data backed up.
any chance someone could recommend another distro for me?

it would be on my Laptop. Fairly new, Intel IRIS cpu, no dedicated GPU (can get specs if needed).
I’m going into UNI for comp sci next year
I want KDE as a requirement.
I would prefer it to be arch based so my knowledge can be transferred to messing with my steam deck, but not a requirement.

I also tinkered my previous distros to death by messing with terminal commands I didn’t know (it’s how you learn!). I would prefer something to back it up if I accidentally delete a million packages like last time but I don’t know if that would be something dependent on the OS or just a program.

I don’t really understand what immutable is, but I think my SteamDeck is immutable so I think I want it 🤷‍♀️

any recommendations/tips would be appreciated 🩷

I should’ve figured people on Lemmy would love his content lol

happy cake day!!

why you gotta be so rude about it? like we’re forced to live here, your bragging doesn’t help anyone

Sidenote, the modern web is so fucked because how am I supposed to teach a kid that I would trust the random website “paper.wtf” I have never seen before with literally “meow” randomly above their article MORE than businessinsider.com which is like at the top of every search result

if the law takes down the website or the og download

if you want to help you can donate some bandwidth and storage by seeding https://annas-archive.org/torrents

I personally seed 100gb of it and revived 70gb of it from being a dead torrent over the span of weeks from someone who only seeded a few hours a day at best.

it’s been like 6 months since I’ve tried Linux again, the terminal has curved lines now?!

that’s one hell of a thumbnail image

I think that’s a good idea. I’m planning on cancelling my $3/month discord subscription so money can go twords TIA instead
I have about a spare laptop I can setup to be a seeder in the closet or sthm

I have a question. Would it be better for me to donate money to the Internet Archive, or would it be more beneficial long term to purchase a NAS and torrent as much stuff from TIA that I can?

oh, I see.

unfortunately?

instance checks out

do you happen to know a fork that doesn’t do that? A Firefox exactly the same but without mozilla’s BS is what I’m looking for.

honestly… I don’t know what a tracker is, I just click the magnet button and qBitTorrent just downloads it
Is there something more I should be doing?

I really do want to point out, Gmail is gonna get a massive lead as time goes on.
Doing parental consent forms for my schools library, most of the parents email were yahoo, Hotmail, etc. but EVERY SINGLE student email was Gmail, with the exception of like 10 out of (at least) 300 pages

(edit: to clarify, 300 pages is 300 emails)

hey cm0002 why are you on lemmy.cafe now?
