Why should he stop caring about the things he spent his whole life building?! You don't stop caring about things you love just because you get old . Maybe you don't care about your business because your goal is to sell your idea

Not an alternative, but LibreWolf allows you to stop caring about what bullshit Mozilla tried to force feed you in their latest update. OpenGL is disabled by default but you can enable it AFAIK (gfx.webrender.software.opengl in about:config

Yeah it makes it very easy to be OS-independant. I have backups of my whole home directory so if anything goes awry I can just reinstall software as I go and restore my config files from the most recent backup. I have a Nextcloud instance f

I see. Sorry if I came off as trying to invalidate your experience. That's not what I meant. I've tried about 4 or 5 distros before settling on openSUSE Tumbleweed (now on my 4th or so year). Linux Mint, Fedora, Kubuntu, Solus, Ma

> I also personally keep no data on my devices Now I get your point. But still I would prefer to access my "personal" accounts from a device I trust. Do you use a cloud service for your files?

Granted, I don't use the sleep feature because I'm on a desktop and seeding Linux ISOs. But whenever I run into an issue after an update, I just rollback and wait for a few more days because it usually gets fixed. More often than

Isn't dual-booting convenient for you? I've never done it myself.

Those of you who don't use Linux as a daily driver: why? What do you need in Windows that is not possible in Linux? Its slowness to justify your 40-hour work week?

I've never understood this point. Other developers can just make their own platform or distribute games themselves individually. Nobody wants to do that for obvious reasons. There's clearly a network effect similar to Instagram, W

Sounds like you don't use the modern-day condom: uBlock Origin. I live in Europe (famous place for becoming professional banner clicker) and I didn't get one single distraction.

Playing football for 1000 hours doesn't make you better at any other job (i.e real life). Don't be so close-minded; playing games is not different from any other activity.

Most deaths attributed to heart diseases are not natural at all, and I would argue it's the same for a lot of cancer cases. Just a hundred years ago, they were unheard of. Our lifestyle and diet is what is killing us and some very big

Actually, I've read ¥200/person instead of $200/person but the original comment indeed mentions dollars. Anyways, I think they were talking about the price of entering the teppanyaki restaurant of ¥200/person.

Not at all. Buying and selling on a fixed schedule regardless of the price of the asset is absolutely not timing. Let me take the Investopedia definition[1]: "Market timing is the act of moving investment money in or out of a financi

Absolutely not. Most of the investors are regular people who need the money for their retirement. They sell stock when they need the money to live . Stop thinking that investment is like in the movies where everyone watches their portfolio
