> what can be done, at this point?
* VPN for network encryption
* Black hole filters for telemetry
* OS-like special purpose software running as admin to escape from default OS tooling (i.e browsers, game launchers)
* Throwaway accounts for all online services
* VMs for everything else
* A strong stomach to endure this burden
- quijoteuniv 5y agoYes, linux, wireguard, pihole, ublock, DuckDuckGo , command line, vim and keep continually improving. :) And patiently explaining windows and apple is not the way :)
- benbristow 5y agoWorks great until you try and install Photoshop.
- mateuszf 5y agoThat's what you use VM for
- benbristow 5y agoThen you're still using Windows.
- mateuszf 5y agoIf you have to. That's your choice, you can always find a Photoshop alternative. Probably not as extensive but that's a matter of compromises.
- quijoteuniv 5y agoUse GIMP, they are not that far behind in functionality. Image magick and FFMPEG are great for batch processing. I never personally met anyone installing a non cracked version of photoshop in windows. But if you definitely need photoshop (case: you are a real comercial designer/photographer)is best to get a Mac, you can get 5 years out of it if you tweak it a bit. I just find mac is going the wrong way just to make more money and that is the world we live in!
- diegoperini 5y agoCheck out Krita, maybe its feature set will be enough for your use case.
- quijoteuniv 5y agoYes! Krita is cool!
