Disagree. His videos definitely have the click-baity look and titles. But the content is usually pretty top notch even if you need to ignore some silly parts of certain videos. I think his channel pairs well with GamerNexus.

Exactly. I use HN as one of my BS detector calibration tools and thus crave its critical nature. I think the OP needs to learn to filter out the types of dismissive critical comments that sit that the top because they got there early and ar

I'm curious what OS you're running. For me, on macOS Firefox performs the best out of all browsers I've tried, but on Linux it feels a bit sluggish.

Yeah, I think there are measures I could take to help the situation but it's a little low on my priority queue at the moment. The crashes are rare and not really a big issue for me.

Recently switched to Linux and only installed Firefox. When you force yourself to use it, it's doable. I think only once in the last 6 months did a website not work (my dumb HOA website). Other than that, it's more than sufficient

Anyone notice the logo update? The key loop has been exchanged for a hammer and sickle.

You can run your own infra completely independent of them. Also, their approach is to decentralize until it hurts, then centralize until it works. Calling it centralized is a bit of a stretch.

Question: How do we reconcile "soy is poison" with the fact that some cultures include massive amounts of soy in their diet with little known detriment? For instance, the Japanese seem to eat tons of the stuff in various forms all

I read the entire thing and while interesting I don't think I understand. The entire known cosmos exists within an artificial construct with human amenities? What is the point of the story exactly?

No, what's staggering is the number of my family members that simply cannot use their computer because it's bogged down by an AV. Also, your analogy is completely wack.

On one hand I agree, it is perplexing. But then I realize that profile with a picture of a hot girl with lots of "friends" counts as a user that brings "engagement on the platform" so it's valuable to FB when they&#

Anyone on the fence about ditching Windows for Linux should just do it. If you pick a popular distro and hardware you'll likely run into only minimal issues, if any. My sound and wifi worked right out of the box even though I built my

Love this. One productivity hack I discovered for myself was to set my background to a solid color I like and to make my windowing experience as "boring" as possible. Id otherwise sit and tweak my UI instead of working. This sort

Two possible cases? You can pick any arbitrary measure of Yale's value and apply the same reasoning and possibly come out with a different result.

This is a particularly silly argument. You could apply this same faulty logic to any hard problem anyone is working on.

Nice. I'd pay 5-10$/mo for a search engine that didn't just funnel me into the revenue-extracting regions of the web like Google does.

As others have noted, just self-host a Zerotier controller. It's what I do.

This is either erroneous thinking or intentionally misleading. Conflating "outlasting" with "safe" is problem number 1. Problem number two is they said "any western country" and you picked one pretty far down t

My coworker's kid uses zerotier to maintain a private gaming network with static IPs for all their friends. Does your system have anything similar or is it just out in the open? Taking a cursory glance at your page it's hard to te
