Agreed, anything Edward Snowden says right now is just propaganda.

Due to all the recent BSD posts I have spent the past month exploring NetBSD and OpenBSD. Really enjoying the journey and finding that I can do everything I am currently doing easily on both.

Syncthing for the win. Has worked fantastic for me for many years across just about an OS you want to use.

I actually have it on my Apple watch and use it with some of my international friends.

I gave up after three attempts. Ends too fast for me to find where I am on the screen. I might checkout again if I have time.

Yeah, I left the page 10 seconds in.

I still listen to a lot of prog rock as well as classical, more than I did when I was a teenager or in my 20s. But I also occasionally listen to current popular music with my teenage daughters. Some of it I like, some I do not, but myself and my daughters all agree that they would like to hear some big change in popular music. Not saying it should be a return to something like grunge, but it would be interesting to hear something different like that style was.

From what I can tell there is no actual code with this ebook. It is just posts from Reddit with coding ideas. This post should be removed.

that whole page looks very sketchy. Charging for it no less, I see a take down by Microsoft coming.

There was a period of time where I thought I was the only one who remembered this show. I had the toy spacecraft as a kid and loved it.

If you have anxiety and cannot sleep, of course caffeine is probably not going to help. Unless I missed it, he never addresses his bowel issue.

Yep, why would an expert, writing a book on fraud give a caller any information?

What's a matter, CIA got you pushing too many pencils.

Very much agree with you and my first thought was, who has that much drama at work? If you do, the employer or the type of the job is the problem.

I left Chrome 10 years ago and have been a happy Firefox user. I think this article is clickbait. I know more and more people using Firefox.

I setup several folks over the years with Linux on their laptops. Usually after they ended up with malware or other oddities on their Windows computers multiple times. I would always ask them what they do on their computers, usually it was 99% web. I would never hear from these people until they wanted to buy a new computer. Prior to that I felt like I was looking at some issue every 6 months or so. All the Linux desktops are pretty nice now, and actually have been for a quite a while if all the person is doing is web stuff. Firefox or Chrome looks the same to the average person no matter what operating system they are using.

The other thing worth mentioning is well, the computers will almost always perform better with a Linux distribution over a bloated Windows install.

how would an egg and bacon burrito be considered toxic? Maybe not good for a dog, but toxic?

I work for a hospital and we just phased out our pagers this past year for some staff. Honestly, I am glad they are gone. I hated carrying the extra device. But I see the advantage for physicians. Pagers absolutely work everywhere.
