Add to this that companies would prefer showing their ads to paying customers (who have some money to spend), not the free tier plebs

Easy to do accidentally, no discoverability except in situations where you do it accidentally and get annoyed by it.
This braindeadism would be so funny to watch if America wouldn’t drag everyone else down with them.
Sorry to tell you guys, but your only option in the foreseeable future is to vote for the democrats and pray they prove a tiny bit better. You have nothing else in your hands. Third party votes are political suicide. So is not voting. Even if the Dems are bad, they are not fascists (for now). Pray they don’t become fascists.

Coz surely mean dekneecapped?
I found this video helpful but it’s a few months old already:

Depending on your goals, you could try to find used components that are incompatible with windows 11 but still perhaps powerful enough as this guy explains:

Linux@lemmy.ml•If I wanted to buy a Linux phone, what would be my best options today?

PostmarketOS is interesting for tinkering, grapheneOS just works reliably. Everything else in between

3·3 months agoRegular gym bro here, tried home gym for a while, didn’t work for me. Main issues are:
- progression, you have to increase difficulty over time which is difficult with no equipment
- equipment is fucking expensive, although it may pay off after a year or 2. Resistance bands may be an alternative but restrict you in other ways
- no pull exercises in my case, my house is fragile and I’d break things. Literally no place to attach anything to
- I ended up not training regularly anymore because it’s harder for me to maintain a routine like that. It’s helpful to have a separate space for that
Overall, if you spend several hours per week with exercising, I’d recommend you use proper equipment. It’s just so much nicer. Home gym can work if you have the space and routine, but not in my tiny ass apartment. Fortunately gyms are not as extractive where I live.
Also, exercise is great for you, don’t listen to the haters. Gym weirdly does it for me, although it’s the most boring shit. Other exercise like bouldering often even comes with other people so you can socialise.

Okay, but why not create more work for yourself by rebuilding everything from scratch?
Can’t believe nobody here mentioned nixOS so far? How about moving all of your configs in a flake and manage all of your systems with it?
Couple it to your smart watch, backup every 10 seconds, and make it vibrate when successful
Except for the low profile, I think I found your guy:
Recently took the leap to try it out and it’s surprisingly nice. Especially thanks to the automatic rollbacks, in case something breaks. Only took me a few years of getting nagged and learning about it, and multiple attempts at reading through the documentation.
But for a beginner? No way. NixOS has a serious documentation issue. Also the community structure is a big plus in Debian.
