  1. Agree. That that will not happen - most people don't give a shit about privacy. They want convenience.
    464
  2.  @Norag02  A kitchen knife could be used for preparing meals. Or for a murder. Depends on an application. But should we ban knives then? ;-)
    214
  3. There will be a "fake" local servers ;-)
    92
  4. UWUntu is a real thing ;-)
    40
  5. @jshowa o Corporate environments will respect the EULA as they always do. Home users on the other hand...:-)
    37
  6.  @4.0.4  Fair points!
    33
  7. Do you guys have ads? ;-) It's not that hard to use an adblocker. Yes - even on a smartphone
    29
  8. The thing is - most people don't even care :-(
    25
  9. True. It's C++ with Qt Framework for Windows and for Linux.
    23
  10. 100% true!
    17
  11. @Joshua Kloud Watchlists inclusions are very vague - you can't be sure that you are not in one of them. But most countries will not chase all teens that googled "how to kill a president". Because it will be just too much work for nothing. You have to be VERY suspicious to catch their attention in most cases.
    14
  12.  @Codec264  Sadly - no. It's used just as it was shown in the video - setting your super average resolution to something very obscure. TOR does that. Even if you are using it under TailsOS. That make little sense to me.
    11
  13. I think using 1800x900 is "antispoofing" ;-)
    10
  14. I think some guys with 3 letters ask him to do that. Very politely ;-)
    9
  15. "The more I learn about tech, the more I believe biblical prophecy." - not sure that you are learning correctly ;-)
    7
  16. I used Manjaro and I would say: use EndeavourOS instead ;-)
    6
  17. It's a "hipster" version of the Internet, to be honest :-)
    5
  18.  @MrEdrftgyuji  State is always like that. Always was and always be. That's what they are - an authority. They can't be "friendly".
    5
  19. Manjaro is 99% Arch so it will work just fine :-)
    5
  20.  @dslylsd  Most likely. And I find that... anti-spoofing. It's like all secret agents would wear a red scarf ;-)
    5
  21.  @Smougda  That camera could identify humans by their faces (technology is already working).
    5
  22. At last someone knows what he is talking about :-)
    5
  23. The answer is - there is no much incentive to run one ;-)
    5
  24.  @prakharmishra3000  Normies do ;-)
    5
  25. He means that this protocol will remain niche. And he is right :-)
    4
  26. "who doesn't use some sort of AdBlocker in 2023" - normies, bro! ;-)
    4
  27. that .*bat file was just used to start a Powershell and execute commands in it ;-)
    4
  28.  @battlebuddy4517  They don't want to. But they still do ;-)
    4
  29.  @malformedneutron  CachyOS is the new kid in town. It's selling point: it's an Arch where everything is compiled and tweeked for speed.
    4
  30.  @DarukiNeo-il2jt  That's one of his previous videos (a few years ago) when feds asked some info on someone and got just timestamps in UNIX format xD
    4
  31.  @alnoso  Ah! Makes sense!
    4
  32. Yep! But that's too hard for normies.
    4
  33. Grok is much less censored! Google what people asked it ;-)
    4
  34. Noone is "allowing" anything. They just did it because they know that there would be no consequences.
    4
  35. Very easy - most people don't care about privacy and will happily trade it for any convenience xD
    4
  36.  @nikolas8741  When OBS will became shit - we fork it and continue it's development. If it will became shit VERY slowly - we will just create a new program that is not shit ;-) Maybe using older version of OBS for a base to NOT reinvent the wheel.
    3
  37. Better than keeping your coins in exchange but worse than cold wallets
    3
  38. Absolutely!
    3
  39. 4:42 - That is 100% incorrect! You would need different... "tools" for different locks! Just watch a few videos about that topic before stating anything like that!
    3
  40. Don't use it IF you are Russian. Fixed it ;-) Not sure that they care about non-Russians. Why would they? If I would break some Russian laws - they can't arrest me because I'm not in Russia and their laws has no power where I live. Not sure that they care about what I think about Putin - I can't vote for/against him. So why bother with me?
    3
  41. "eventually" ;-)
    3
  42. You may try PopOS or Mint - boith are great for beginners! Mint is better for learning what does what
    3
  43. +1 for *.mkv
    3
  44. Kernel doesn't have language packs ;-)
    3
  45. Windows has more viruses became more people are using it, so there are more targets ;-) But what about Linux servers? Yes, there are plenty of them. But they are MUCH better protected that PC's with Windows that are used by non tech savvy people who can't even stop Windows Autoupdates!
    3
  46. I don't see any ads ;-) Firefox + uBlock Origin
    3
  47.  @feverdata6640  Ask everyone who is younger than 25 ;-)
    3
  48. " it feels like I'm being put on a watch-list" - depends on your country ;-)
    3
  49. He has information from the past :-)
    3
  50. But what about... DEAD BEAR? No, I don't want that :-)
    3
  51. +1 for this question Their owners don't look too trustworthy ;-)
    3
  52.  @shadesoftime  That term is more playful that offensive ;-)
    3
  53. Google OR privacy Choose one
    3
  54.  @DisplayLine6.13.9  Agree!
    3
  55. Nope! Just banned because they can
    3
  56. Good joke ;-) Their drivers are already Open Sourced
    3
  57. * O&O ShutUpWin10++ for disabling Windows telemetry and ads * uBlock Origin for disabling ads in browser You're welcome! ;-)
    3
  58.  @nicolascossio5961  They literally can't. * Anti-cheat detects changed libraries as hacked * Proton can't use non-modified libraries for two reasons: 1. Most libraries are closed source so Proton devs (mostly WINE devs) should make a very close replica of those libraries 2. Those libraries works with Windows. To make them work on Linux - they must be modified
    3
  59. Is it a profitable think to do? That's all that matters to corporations ;-)
    3
  60. I also use it. Just don't exchange currencies one for another inside it - it's VERY expensive.
    3
  61. Doot!
    3
  62. It is enough! You would need an IP address and a port
    3
  63. What exactly do you want to know? Ask me here or just google that ;-)
    2
  64.  @King_Dub_Dub  Google how to swap Notepad for your application - maybe that would give you any ideas ;-) For Notepad it's just a Registry key.
    2
  65. Read about Monero
    2
  66. He is also too lazy to send link to you ;-)
    2
  67. Nope xD
    2
  68. Just some stupid rules! xD You know that is illegal to use a Repack even if you bought the game? I do that anyways if I need to ;-)
    2
  69. Good point
    2
  70. If it has a long password - that will take a few hundred years on the best supercomputer that we have today ;-)
    2
  71. Some people contribute to Linux Kernel and to Blender, you know ;-)
    2
  72.  @ciprianlica  It still kinda is... But now we have to pick our diostros carefully!
    2
  73. For some time...
    2
  74.  @theplaymakerno1  Well... It interfere with a system, cheating a fake licensing server so Windows thinks that this version is legit. But nothing really harmful
    2
  75. Signal did
    2
  76. Try Unigram from Windows Store - it have secret chats.
    2
  77. Big companies are contributing (code and money) to Linux for MANY years now ;-)
    2
  78.  @kamalzubairov2344  True. This telemetry must be easily disabled if user wants too.
    2
  79. Any software has it ;-) Yes - even Windows!
    2
  80. Deflation is opposite of inflation. And it's even worse for the economy ;-)
    2
  81. Yep!
    2
  82. Not a main problem when we all use the same Internet ;-)
    2
  83. Try Manjaro - a safer Arch. MUCH less problems. Or Mint - the most comfortable Linux distro I've saw.
    2
  84. True
    2
  85. Windows 10 tweakers works just fine on Windows 11
    2
  86. Probably even better - they update it all the time. Windows Terminal is pre-installed now
    2
  87. A very specific question... Test that yourself ;-)
    2
  88. Nope. Azure uses Linux ;-)
    2
  89. Probably because it's a Dev buld - it has less shit. De-bloat Windows 10 and you will get better performance ;-)
    2
  90. Thos those who didn't get what's the problem: a -99% drop would make your system 100 times slower! 100% drop would make your system unable to calculate anything. So it would just stop working.
    2
  91.  @ameritus9041  You could even run them on USB stick. As LiveUSB and even install it fully on it! Second choice is more preferable.
    2
  92. Be careful with "old hard drives" ;-)
    2
  93. Why not! * It's a donation * You will have a few skins + applications. That's great for newcomers or just lazy people :-) * 40$ is not much. It costs less that 1 AAA game and more useful.
    2
  94. So what is stoping you?
    2
  95. Just download the newest *.img
    2
  96.  @HokeyBugle  But it may not want to decompress itself back :-)
    2
  97. Haven't saw BSOD for years! I use Windows 10 and LInux Manjaro KDE
    2
  98. Kitchen knives, guys! People kill using those! ;-)
    2
  99. Why not. Just don''t disconnect it
    2
  100. Looks like disabling scripting in PDF is mandatory xD
    2
  101. Replaces
    2
  102. Google owns Chrome. You will not get ANYTHING that you like there ;-) Maybe on Chromium-based forks...
    2
  103. I still remember that video ;-)
    2
  104. It would work on Windows Vista - Windows 11 ;-)
    2
  105. "or that other thing that runs on USB." - Tails uses Tor < 11.0.13 ;-) Wait for 5.1
    2
  106. Look at uncensored models then ;-) You make assumptions on a very limited data that you have.
    2
  107.  @skittleripple  Click on his channel and you will see... That this is not a real Mental Outlaw :-)
    2
  108. * Binance is a very good exchange/trading platform * If your investment is low (<= 1000$) you may just leave it there. * Otherwise - send it to your wallet (like Exodus). * Make sure that you know the rules how to send from one wallet to another. If you will send USDT (TRC20-based) to USDT (ERC20 based) - your money will be destroyed. So be careful and LEARN A LOT!
    2
  109.  @ZERARCHIVE2023  True. The smart idea would be disable JS by default but enable it on verified sites (basically what you are suggesting).
    2
  110. Google "Why computers couldn't count sometimes". Video by Tom Scott
    2
  111. "why would they use there own os?" - because they know how to tweak it ;-)
    2
  112. You may install apps not from Google Store ;-)
    2
  113. Manjaro has a good hardware support - not sure what's your problem :-) But yes - almost all distros has a driver installation tool. Including Manjaro ;-)
    2
  114. PS4 and PS5 SDKs You have to pay Sony and sign a document to have them otherwise ;-)
    2
  115.  @JOHNSMITH-sj3lg  Sadly, I didn't downloaded that archive myself. But you could watch the video again and there will be a moment when he explains what is for free and what is not ;-)
    2
  116. Not a smart idea ;-) Why not use Windows 7 with unofficial patches or even Linux?
    2
  117.  @garygranato9164  Glad to help :-)
    2
  118. I immediately disabled that weather bar ;-)
    2
  119. Yep. And that's sus ;-)
    2
  120.  @sarigan2003  It's FINE :-) I use it for 10+ years and it's good at blocking adds.
    2
  121. Yep!
    2
  122.  @MagnusReardon  Start-ups that want to train a new AI model. You would be surprised how many startups are actually interested in that ;-)
    2
  123.  @MphasieMusic  Just don't dual boot from the same physical drive ;-) And keep all of your data on external HDD (make sure that it's unencrypted!)
    2
  124. "and CHARGE us if we stay" - there is a simple way to get Windows 7 updates for free - Windows 10 will be the same ;-)
    2
  125. Exodus is good. Just DON'T exchange currencies inside it - fees are big!
    2
  126. Chromium != Chrome Chrome = Chromium + close sourced modules from Google
    2
  127. Emulators are a niche - they would be infected much less
    2
  128. * Smarter Assistant * Smarter foreign language translator
    2
  129. It's for you to decide ;-)
    2
  130. "Binance US that badly restricted compared to everywhere else in the world?" - most likely
    2
  131.  @thatdamncrow9197  Fair points!
    2
  132.  @BootyRealDreamMurMurs  We both know that this in almost impossible ;-) 99% of people just don't care. They will trade ANYTHING for convenience (press one button and "it just works").
    2
  133. Most people don't actually believe is The Truth - they just believe is "their truth" ;-)
    2
  134.  @PrettyBlueThings  I would recommend Mint or PopOS
    2
  135.  @xeome5596  Or is it? :-)
    2
  136. "Lmfao reason 214# to not get a iPhone" - Play Store is on Android...
    2
  137.  @jacobhinchliffe6659  Agree! Would be nice if someone would monitor it's activity so we could know what exactly it does. It's shady :-)
    2
  138. While program runs it may collect any data it wants: your IP, your hardware, some files that it want to collect... Possibilities are limitless.
    2
  139. They are fine (obviously). Denying Internet access for a specific program is a smarter solution. Living in the past - not ;-)
    2
  140. Pretty good!
    2
  141. Yep! For most people that would be: * Install Mint * Use
    2
  142.  @tylerdean980  50 Gb is good enough for normal Internet. Just don't watch too many videos in 1080@60
    2
  143. "I ain't upgrading my FX CPU anytime soon." - oof
    2
  144. It's still is - but it's much harder to achieve now ;-) TailsOS may help A LOT
    2
  145. It's worse (encryption is enabled only is secret chats + their encryption is proprietary)
    2
  146. DON"T give them your credit card (even for 5 minutes) and you will be fine ;-)
    2
  147. Ha-ha! True! Same with "Microsoft likes Open Source" - yes, Microsoft DO like non-paid altruistic workers ;-)
    2
  148. Try it :-)
    2
  149. Yep!
    2
  150. 4 Tb cost like 100$ ;-)
    2
  151. For convenience :-)
    2
  152. Software engineer here. There are two types of updates: feature updates and bugfix updates. First ones add new features that may or may not have bugs. Second ones fix bugs. So updating some software from 1.9.5 to 2.0.0 will add new features but may add new bugs. Updating from 1.9.5 to 2.0.6 will be much smarter idea because it has 6 bugfix patches. Using old software is NOT a smart idea.
    2
  153. Doesn't matter. We will just fork it ;-)
    2
  154. And you still can ;-)
    2
  155. RHEL has entered the chat... :-)
    2
  156. Would you start doing backups tho? ;-)
    2
  157. Use Binance instead then :-)
    2
  158.  @rommysoeli  That's quite useful :-)
    2
  159. Time will tell ;-)
    2
  160. Tech English ;-)
    2
  161.  @openalternative  Yeah... Let's listen to what it's CREATOR says - he has no interest of promoting it ;-)
    2
  162. Good luck using Youtube without JS ;-)
    2
  163. On all Windows 11 machines It's mandatory unless you would use some tweakers and disable all this BS
    2
  164. THE best comment by far! :-)
    2
  165. Some government seat are clearly bought by tech companies. You just CAN'T be super rich but NOT influential ;-)
    2
  166. Yep! That's what most geeks forget about - people just don't care! They don't even block ads!
    2
  167. There is a smarter idea: Block Internet access for Audacity in your Firewall. Google how to do that - it's like 5 minutes.
    2
  168. I think Binance is better tbh
    2
  169. Don't trust your mind! Any human is two-three BIG stresses away from random memory corruption ;-)
    2
  170.  @wasteofspace9184  True.
    2
  171. I heard that Discord is a private nightmare. Google that :-)
    2
  172. Yep! Same with telemetry, Updates and so on - it's already tweakable for those who are not lazy ;-)
    2
  173. No it's still there!
    2
  174.  @oakfat5178  Well what he shows in the video have these subjects: * Using Microsoft Azure * Using Microsoft GitHub * Using Python scripts Still, I wouldn't call this easy. If you are trying to wrap your head around this - try using Python scripts on your PC. Then install Windows in a Virtual Machine (like VirtualBox) and install Python there. Then create a Snapshot of the VM (that's like a save in videogame) so you could load that state if you would brake something. Then try to modify scripts and see what happens. Scripts should do easy things like reading and writing text, creating and deleting files, download a file from the Internet. If you would like to do more - just google what you want to, watch (and repeat after them!) Youtube tutorials or read a book. At any time, you should understand 90-95% of code that you are working on. If it's not true - google that or use ChatGPT to ask what that code does ;-)
    1
  175. Yep! Firefox + uBlock Origin + Return YouTube Dislikes ;-)
    1
  176. Most likely. The smallest RAM usage that I saw myself was in a VM - 0.8 Gb
    1
  177. There are Microsoft guys and Intel ones too! So, big corpos ;-)
    1
  178. Anyways... :-)
    1
  179. If you are the richest - you couldn't get more money? ;-)
    1
  180. Your IMEI address is harder to change ;-) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Mobile_Equipment_Identity
    1
  181. It raises and falls every 3.5-4 years :-)
    1
  182. With that ping on a Starlink? ;-)
    1
  183. That is a trolling question... But it's a correct one :-)
    1
  184. Yes you may do that. But as a beginner - let someone more experienced to help you ;-)
    1
  185. Leaks. They are still runed by real people ;-)
    1
  186. There are other nasty apps ;-) Try not to download something from unknown companies
    1
  187.  @SankoshSaha_01  KDE doesn't crashes for me. At all. Depends on the hardware.
    1
  188. They are weak for miners. And for gamers.
    1
  189. Just learn how to tweak your system ;-)
    1
  190. useful -> Windows11 -> Ubuntu -> Pop_OS (after they would know that Ubuntu is owned by Cannonical which is basically Microsoft for Linux world)
    1
  191. +1
    1
  192. It's a little bit worse: * Chat has encryption ONLY in secret chats * Their encryption is proprietary (it may be great or may have backdoors - we don't know)
    1
  193. Don't underestimate people's stupidity ;-)
    1
  194. Why would they tho?
    1
  195.  @bradolson8242  Fair point ;-)
    1
  196. Just add it to a Firewall blacklist and you will be fine
    1
  197. That's correct
    1
  198. Same! :-)
    1
  199. True! Because OS itself is not the root of the problem ;-)
    1
  200. The main problem is - Windows starting from Windows 1.0 to 11 still requires you to be a Poweruser. If you are not - you are royalty fucked! xD
    1
  201. I would recommend to store your passwords yourself (in a encrypted file)
    1
  202. Agree! But also people should became just a little bit smarter ;-)
    1
  203.  @Sertsch  Not so easy ;-) They would release a bugged version and patch it very slowly. It would be hard to prove are they incompetent or do that on purpose.
    1
  204.  @tacokoneko  Ok I will try it out of curiosity. Most non-main browsers looks like they are still in 2000s tho ;-)
    1
  205. Yes. Firefox does this already :-)
    1
  206.  @windowsxseven  Hello! How can I help you? Ha-ha! ;-) I LIKE that name!
    1
  207. Depends on a guy we are talking about ;-)
    1
  208. They are just humans. Just like us. You could be more private or less but not 100%.
    1
  209. Just nuclear power ;-)
    1
  210. That's ok - it will enable itself in next big Windows 11 update ;-) That was the point of the video
    1
  211. Really? Never tried it on Windows ;-)
    1
  212. Find some PPA with fresh Firefox ;-)
    1
  213.  @somethingcoolgoeshere  :-)
    1
  214. True (for all who doesn't know - Microsoft uses Linux on their Azure Servers)
    1
  215.  @denizylmaz8131  Windows 10 EOL - 2025
    1
  216. "maybe keeping software and hardware up to date isn't good after all" - it's good if you are a poweruser ;-)
    1
  217. Stars positions do change in time. Not in a lifetime of a human of course but our ancestors saw a different star patterns millions years ago.
    1
  218. And it could be disabled (by some tweaker - I'm sure!)
    1
  219. "What's the most effective way to invest in cryptocurrency": * Learn about it as much as possible * DON'T give you crypto to any "crypto advisers"! * Learn what Dollar Cost Average is and USE IT!
    1
  220. Using vulnerabilities. As always Remember - VirtualBox is just a program. Just like any other program.
    1
  221. Data center uses H100 Are you planning to play games on it? Do you have 25 000$ to spare? ;-)
    1
  222.  @FlareBlitz120  I'm overthinking again xD
    1
  223.  @umeng2002  Just those hackers ;-) Being an Ukrainian doesn't make you any different that Chinese or other.
    1
  224. Yep!
    1
  225. You are just one google away from the answer ;-)
    1
  226. Dualbooting with Windows is asking for trouble ;-)
    1
  227. Look for video "why computers couldn't count sometimes" ;-)
    1
  228.  @Zandman26  That's true. Like = dislike for Youtube algorithm. Just search for "baby" on Youtube ;-)
    1
  229. They mean "Friend AI" so something? ;-)
    1
  230. Just don't forget to use O&O ShutUp after install Thank me later ;-)
    1
  231. Learn how to enable/disable features that are already in the Kernel first ;-) That's not that hard but still would teach you how to recompile the Kernel
    1
  232. It's not like we have Windows Update Minitool just for that! ;-)
    1
  233. Generalizing people is not smart ;-)
    1
  234. Nope! People are just too lazy and plain stupid for that ;-)
    1
  235. Of course not! For obvious reasons ;-)
    1
  236. And rightfully so. Google "JPEG vs PNG"
    1
  237. That is correct The thing is: is Linux changed so much for past 10 years? Not in terms of UI but in terms of internal work? :-)
    1
  238.  @Windows11Official  Agree But that's not exactly the point: we were talking about Windows using the same kernel for 15 years. Not exactly the same version of kernel but the same architecture. Isn't Linux doing the same?
    1
  239. Depends on you goal. DOGE is a meme coin that raises and falls fast. Etherium is a serious project that is here to stay (if it lauches ETH 2.0) The answer is: diversify and take profits or get rekt. Rules are easy :-)
    1
  240.  @GodModeMaker  Ethereum will rise. Even if not right now - in a few years. And the reason for that is "Bitcoin halving". Google why that is important and what that does ;-)
    1
  241. They will just... do nothing for a few years. It's not like their PCs will explode on the next day - they would became more and more easier to hack. That's all.
    1
  242. A VERY fancy one ;-) It became better and better!
    1
  243. All if that could be easily disabled by using tweakers ;-)
    1
  244. Using it too! It works... fine. Not best ;-)
    1
  245. Game performance is lower on this new kernel version. Yes, LOWER!
    1
  246. ​ @Vellerize  Can't say for sure but there are videos on Youtube that test the latest version of the Kernel. I would just wait a few minor versions for improvements ;-)
    1
  247. No
    1
  248. Not playing some videos is the LEAST of it's problems Their owner is ;-)
    1
  249. Well... It's more risky now ;-)
    1
  250.  @biskenn  Then we will just use a non-ads client ;-)
    1
  251. There is an extension to bring them back tho ;-)
    1
  252.  @inarisound  True. I can see only number of likes now. That was a dumb move from them.
    1
  253.  @Wahinies  xD
    1
  254. Why not! ;-)
    1
  255. Not sure. If it's true - they will use a safe fork of it - they are not stupid.
    1
  256. Tweakers would let you turn off almost anything ;-)
    1
  257. In what system? Windows? Linux? Mac? In most cases you just have to download that from the official site and then bring it back to your PC that has no Internet. So you should be able to download it from somewhere first ;-)
    1
  258. Who knows? :-) The question is: why would NSA be interested in you as a person? As a dot on a map - maybe. But why as a person?
    1
  259.  @ChucksSEADnDEAD  Maybe. But noone would be actually interested to look at it. Not saying that spying is a good thing tho :-)
    1
  260. Modders could care ;-)
    1
  261. People just buy new laptops with Windows 11 and too lazy to even disable telemetry ;-)
    1
  262. Yep!
    1
  263. Test it ;-)
    1
  264. xD
    1
  265. If you are watching Youtube on PC - try "Adblock Plus" browser extension. There will be almost no adds :-)
    1
  266. Sus Look at their owners ;-)
    1
  267. It's easy: * If you think that Crypto will not go anyway - BUY * If you think tht Crypto is done - SELL (I will gladly buy it ;-) )
    1
  268.  @kjullthedemon  Good news!
    1
  269. 5:06 - Since when *.PNG has layers? :-)
    1
  270. Linux Mint or Linux Pop_OS are two great choices for newcomers: pleasant, fast, helpful, works out of the box. Try them in VM first!
    1
  271. Could be. I would totally ignore all short comments for the algorithm
    1
  272. Depends on your goals: + It's great as a Server + It's great for old PCs and laptops - It's not great at gaming - It's not great with professional software like AutoCAD and Adobe Suite
    1
  273.  @The_RedPilot  Just google "deflation in economy" and "inflation in economy" and you would find very interesting information ;-) It's not that black and white.
    1
  274. What if you want new features? ;-) Firewall is a also a good solution
    1
  275. It's better than WPA2 but it needs additional server to use it. For all questions -> google.com
    1
  276. Not so simple for "normal" people - they can't even memorize two buttons ;-)
    1
  277. There are Command Prompt commands and you can even do that "the normal way". Just google ;-)
    1
  278. Yep!
    1
  279. So even the God himself can't fix the JS! ;-)
    1
  280. Install 3.0.2 and look for a changelog what changed since 2.1.2 ;-) https://github.com/audacity/audacity/releases
    1
  281. "I'm only on Signal now!"
    1
  282. 95% of people are idiotic ;-)
    1
  283. That's correct.
    1
  284. It's "Linux Mint KDE" :-)
    1
  285. If your node is not an exit node - you will be fine. About morality - your node WILL be used for "good" and "bad" purposes. There is no way out of it. Same if you are selling... kitchen knives, for example ;-)
    1
  286. Yes you can ;-)
    1
  287. Easier. But is it smarter? :-)
    1
  288. Ubuntu is under Cannonical which is known for their... strange behavior ;-) Why not POP os or Mint?
    1
  289. I would suggest Linux Mint: comfy, easy, stable.
    1
  290. On should backup your data on all OSes tho ;-)
    1
  291. Do they really have the choice? ;-)
    1
  292. There is a smarter idea: Block Internet access for Audacity in your Firewall. Google how to do that - it's like 5 minutes.
    1
  293. Install O&O ShupUp++ to disable almost all the telemetry on Windows 10-11. They watched the traffic and blocking what they find strange - look at HOSTS afterwards ;-)
    1
  294. Source would be nice ;-) But they do log some things that that they don't have to (like phone number and some metadata)
    1
  295. Why would they do that for free? ;-)
    1
  296. That way you will lose all new features and will have to develop them from scratch. Deleting code is easier than creating ;-)
    1
  297. True! But video will be MUCH less dramatic if he actually says that ;-)
    1
  298. Most likely
    1
  299. * They do. * Because they don't have updates that brake your PC ;-)
    1
  300. "What problem are they trying to solve?" - less salaries ;-) One intern cost 500$ per month while basic ChatGPT subscription is only 20$ per month
    1
  301.  @WardenWyrd  It could be used this way but sadly - it wouldn't ;-) Companies would just replace low complexity (and then even medium) jobs with 1 AI prompter. If your job is easily replaceable like that - "climb higher" on a corporate ladder. Or start a small business.
    1
  302. Just turn it off manually - much simpler ;-)
    1
  303. He is blowing it to have more vies and likes. But problem is still here ;-)
    1
  304. "How do I convince them to use Signal?" - do you really have interesting conversations with them in a first place? ;-)
    1
  305. HOSTS will do the job - it's system-wide
    1
  306. It's a pre-configured Arch so it's good :-)
    1
  307. Normies will NEVER use it (because of complexity). That's fine with me ;-)
    1
  308. In a VERY specific cases ;-)
    1
  309. You will have problems with sites after a few months ;-)
    1
  310. Of course not
    1
  311.  @Cookiekeks  VPNs are faster than TOR in general.
    1
  312. It's not done and never will be ;-)
    1
  313. What if most people are lazy and plain stupid for that? ;-)
    1
  314. "Normies" don't care - they would just keep using Chrome because they don't want to learn anything
    1
  315.  @Bagginsess  That's why they wouldn't do that ;-)
    1
  316.  @Bagginsess  True!
    1
  317. True. But how much that affects it ;-) They just "ask very politely" to make their Search the default one
    1
  318. Welcome ;-) You could go to Settings and set up it as you like it ;-)
    1
  319. Use previous kernel for now. If you deleted it - install it again ;-)
    1
  320. * Antiviruses don't help with telemetry - it even adds more. * For disabling most of the telemetry and spyware in Windows use O&O ShutUp
    1
  321. Yep!
    1
  322. I get your point but NOONE should be forced to reveal their source codes! That's just dictatorship.
    1
  323. True But why would you have less than 4 Gb of RAM in 2021? :-)
    1
  324. It is! It's still pretty nice but no Russians allowed. Maybe "no Chinese allowed" comes next month... So not really open for everybody anymore.
    1
  325. Need any advice? * Use Windows Update Minitool to disable autoupdates * Use O&O Shutup10++ to disable 95% of telemetry * Use StartAllBack to have a Windows 10-like Start menu * Use Explorer Patcher to tweak 100+ things
    1
  326. Yes. Those 5% are really smart! Other 95% of them - not so much xD
    1
  327. Need Some advice? * Use Windows Update Minitool to disable autoupdates * Use O&O Shutup10++ to disable 95% of telemetry * Use StartAllBack to have a Windows 10-like Start menu * Use Explorer Patcher to tweak 100+ things
    1
  328. Just disable aupoupdates
    1
  329. Just use some tweakers and disable all of that BS ;-)
    1
  330. My bet would be... heuristic :-)
    1
  331. Impossible - they get money from Google ;-)
    1
  332.  @basilcat3111  That's true - I'm using it right now ;-) But they will not add anything by default that would compromise Google in any way. They have better support than Chrome for AdBlockers tho.
    1
  333. For training their AI model. Or just because user clicked on "I agree to be fucked" xD
    1
  334. Only if you are using Arch ;-)
    1
  335. Fair point But this channel is all about "they are watching you!" so it must overreact to have views ;-)
    1
  336.  @snail8720  "anti-change" - sounds dangerous to me. That may be the end of project. New people may not be interested in this project in future.
    1
  337. It is. But you Internet surfing would be... fun without JS ;-)
    1
  338. A small one - most users just don't care :-)
    1
  339. Why Ubuntu tho? Cannonical REALLY tries to be a new Microsoft...
    1
  340.  @georgearsinte5495  They are forcing Snaps! Imagine writing "sudo apt install gimp" and you will get a Snap version instead of native for no reason. That also could be disabled. So why not install Pop_OS and get the same system, but without telemetry and with newer drivers? Still Ubuntu-based.
    1
  341.  @georgearsinte5495  Hmm ok ;-) Am just warning you that they do a little bit of shady tactics with it (redirecting apt install to snap install), but Snaps themselves are fine as a technology.
    1
  342. Not a great idea - now people would think before watching something ;-)
    1
  343. No as far as I know.
    1
  344. Welcome to Windows! ;-)
    1
  345. Start saving for a modern PC :-)
    1
  346. Decentralized one don't do that ;-)
    1
  347. * O&O ShutUpWin10++ for disabling Windows telemetry and ads * uBlock Origin for disabling ads in browser You're welcome! ;-)
    1
  348.  @mihairomulus2488  Depends on what you do ;-)
    1
  349.  @mihairomulus2488  Or if you play multiplayer games - most of them will ban you on Linux because they will detect that your anticheat don't work correctly.
    1
  350. True It's also available for Windows 10
    1
  351. You can use twikers to disable it completely ;-) Or delete it manually
    1
  352. Powerusers will be fine - it's all the normies who will get fucked ;-)
    1
  353. PNG gang :-)
    1
  354. As a Windows 98-10 and Linux Mint , Ubuntu, Manjaro guy I could say: A. You can't do that on Windows - true B. You can do that C. You also can do that! E. Or you can tweak hosts or Registry to disable ads/telemetry/almost anything ;-)
    1
  355. It will (encryption and decryption). Depends on how new your CPU is
    1
  356. Try to do that and you will see why not ;-)
    1
  357. Or CachyOS - that's a new one! It's Arch but compiled and tweaked for maximum speed
    1
  358. But you do have identity and information to steal ;-) Everyone has
    1
  359. There is nothing to be proud of! Program became better for all this years. Just read the changelog ;-)
    1
  360. ChatGPT 4.0o and ChatGPT 0o3 mini are available for free users ;-) To enable o3 just click "Reason" button
    1
  361. Until they added something REALLY useful for you ;-)
    1
  362.  @dxfvgyhjh  Nope ;-)
    1
  363. Not everyone could buy a Bugatti but everyone could use a good passmanager ;-)
    1
  364. True. The closest thing is Jetbrains Rider (F# and C#) There are IDEs for other products as well ;-)
    1
  365. A LOT! But only a few of them are worth the try ;-)
    1
  366. Opera new owner is... very shady. I used Opera from 2008 to 2019
    1
  367.  @_grzehotnik  Well... they has been owned by Norwegian company (which is fine) but some time ago they were bought by some micro-investment Chinese company. Not sure how legit it is now. It's not a disaster but... I switched to Firefox ;-) We don't have any information that actually prooves that this Chinese company is REALLY shady tho.
    1
  368. True And there are a lot of criminals using kitchen knives ;-)
    1
  369. 12 will be AI driven
    1
  370. So? It's Open Sourced ;-)
    1
  371. Is it Open Source? I wouldn't trust Google, Microsoft, Apple or any big tech ;-)
    1
  372.  @Eduar6996  Yes :-)
    1
  373. Of course not :-) If BMW would remove a few seats - would that affect Chevrolet :-) Maybe - if they would just copy stupid decisions.
    1
  374. Bad idea! Use Tails OS! Using Windows + Tor is stupid! ;-)
    1
  375. Why make yourself suffer? Why not Mint or EndeavourOS?
    1
  376.  @Maximiliano-v1t  EndeavourOS worls fine with bspwm
    1
  377. Check "Coin Bureau"'s video about wallets. It's superb
    1
  378. Yes! Let them pay! xD
    1
  379. I don't see any ads (on Desktop). Also - that could easily be avoided (by using a non-Ads client)
    1
  380. from Youtube select videos where usefulness is higher than 0 xD
    1
  381. Yep!
    1
  382. That letter is a standard one. They don't adjust it for every messenger app.
    1
  383. Hacker would know how encryption works but that didn't help when he doesn't know the password or any vulnerability to exploit.
    1
  384. You do have a choice! Tweakers are a thing ;-)
    1
  385. Try Linux Mint - it's ideal for newcomers and very comfortable
    1
  386. Maybe!
    1
  387. Try those 2 programs to make it more bearable ;-) * Windows Update Minitool to disable Autoupdates * O&O SHutUp10 to disable almost all telemetry (Copilot and Recall included!)
    1
  388. Yep!
    1
  389. Just google how iPhone detects that it's lost.
    1
  390.  @christofferbersau6929  EndeavourOS is basically 100% prepared for use Arch ;-) So it's a great choice!
    1
  391. Yep!
    1
  392. "Where do we go" to AGI
    1
  393. For lolz and giggles! As all Internet is ;-) He reminded that hosting exit nodes may get you in trouble tho
    1
  394. I don't ;-) Their Bing AI was always meh
    1
  395. What software are you using? Maybe I could help ;-)
    1
  396. Not applicable to 95% of people ;-)
    1
  397. It will brake. But it's integrated in Brave so that will still work ;-) Most likely
    1
  398.  @logickedmazimoon6001  True. And "Adblock Plus" and other extensions are still exist so ;-)
    1
  399. Not sure that you want THIS videocard - it's very weak :-)
    1
  400. Listening to emotions is easier and most people are stupid. So they always will choose the easiest way ;-)
    1
  401.  @PterippiGaming  Let's hope :-)
    1
  402. Look at the top of the screen ;-)
    1
  403.  @Raccoonov  And the tweakers that disable that shit! A real battle :-)
    1
  404. Theoretically - yes. You just can't legally distribute it.
    1
  405. Bitlocker warnes you if you are trying to save your key on the encrypted drive
    1
  406. Easy: * Windows 11 updates * Bitlocker enables itself. User have 0 clues. * Windows 11 borks with next update * User tries to backup data but system drive is encrypted. It looses all that it has there. Unless it used Microsoft Account - it has a backup key ;-)
    1
  407. ;-)
    1
  408. It is awesome! Especially if you are at least a little bit tech savvy ;-)
    1
  409.  @1pcfred  100% true!
    1
  410. And even more ZorinOS than Deepin DE ;-)
    1
  411. Depends on the user. That forces powerusers to backup their data and check is Bitlocker on after any big update. Or just delete it.
    1
  412. Make sure that BitLocker is not enabled on your external drive tho ;-) About "Winmdows 10 end of life" - it will not explode or something! It will just became more easy hackable with time.
    1
  413. "What's an ad?" - asked by an Adblock Plus gang ;-)
    1
  414. True But it's Open Sourced ;-)
    1
  415. The day Ad Block no longer works... I will start using uBlock Origin I fixed it for you ;-)
    1
  416. The {white} guy The "white" guy The 'white' guy The (white) guy The [white] guy
    1
  417. Russian Tor nodes were blocked from Tor for suspicious activity ;-)
    1
  418. You will sleep forever then ;-)
    1
  419. I'm not using it xD I use Windows 10 Enterprise with some heavy tweaking ;-)
    1
  420.  @MyouKyuubi  Tweakers are a thing ;-)
    1
  421. Never backuped anything? Why?
    1
  422.  @LTon07  Oh shit!
    1
  423. ... but then happened Cyberpunk 2077. They released it year before it was ready. PS4 and Xbox One version were not playable at all! Do you think they didn't knew that? ;-) Game is fixed now. And I even bought and played it.
    1
  424. Google that.
    1
  425. Read about their new owners ;-)
    1
  426. Google Search for almost anything Yandex for image searching
    1
  427. 95% of people here: what is hanime? Me: Ha-ha! They can't get it because i"m a Guest there ;-)
    1
  428. Agree :-)
    1
  429. All your questions are easily googlable ;-)
    1
  430. ;-)
    1
  431.  @Aemilindore  google.com -> "how to block internet access using iptables"
    1
  432. Are you OK with Snap overtaking everything on Ubuntu? I would suggest Pop_OS instead of Ubuntu for that reason. Of course that's just an advice ;-) 100% agree with "why to suffer with all of that?". It's a good way to learn new things for a Linux user but for beginners?.. I think it's too much.
    1
  433. Almost ANY program do! Install Wireshark and be surprised ;-)
    1
  434. Better use something more neutral ;-)
    1
  435. Only WIn11
    1
  436. Good luck watching Youtube then ;-)
    1
  437. Yes. But you will miss new features. Using Firewall to deny Internet access is a smarter solution ;-)
    1
  438. @not hing True. But it's harder ;-)
    1
  439. This: * Windows 11 updates * Bitlocker enables itself. User have 0 clues. * Windows 11 borks with next update * User tries to backup data but system drive is encrypted. It looses all that it has there. Unless it used Microsoft Account - it has a backup key ;-)
    1
  440. Windows 10 runs fine for me since 2015 - what am I doing wrong? :-)
    1
  441.  @wolo  I'm doing both :-) If I don't like something - I just change it with a tweaker. I don't really care about EULA ;-) You may think that I just disabled Updates - but that is not true. I'm on v10.0.19043.1081 right now.
    1
  442.  @wolo  Agree. Even with tweakers you still have to fight with the system. Linux is much more friendly with that! About Start menu - try OpenShell. About OneDrive - it can be deleted but it will return after some updates. Because of course it does! Microsoft can't let us miss it :-) Cortana could be disabled or even deleted. But you could set Updates to manual so it will update only when you have time for that. You may have time for that once per month or even more rare. Windows 10 without tweaks is just shit. With tweaks is kinda ok. Not great. Small tip: if Windows can't update for some reason - set all disabled services to "Manual" and run "sfc /scannow" - that really helps. If you can't update to the next big version - use Update Assistant. I get used to that strange behavior. Linux has it's own strange things. So I use both But still mostly Windows.
    1
  443.  @wakematta  True. But this is a "take your poison" situation: * Google Play programs that spies on you OR * Alternatives but you have to check them with your antivirus
    1
  444. Guys! Noone would do anything with him! Why? Because normies don't care about privacy. Like... at all! He is not a threat for anyone.
    1
  445. It's Alpine Linux manually debloated
    1
  446. Just google "Windows Update Minitool". Thank me later ;-)
    1
  447. The letter is a standard one
    1
  448.  @terrydaktyllus1320  Freedom of speech? No? :-)
    1
  449.  @BrunodeSouzaLino  Linux has: * Linux From Scratch book * ArchWiki
    1
  450. Write your own app then ;-) It's not impossible
    1
  451. CoD had a bad netcode since... forever. Why torture yourself with it? ;-)
    1
  452. Do as they said at school but use whatever you want at home. DON'T watch anything private in school ;-)
    1
  453. Does it have any interesting sites to visit tho?
    1
  454. Just disable autoupdatyes ;-)
    1
  455. Yep! Almost all other annoyances could be fixed by tweakers ;-)
    1
  456. Just disable scripting in your PDF viewer of choice and you will be safe! ;-)
    1
  457. Ubuntu is under Cannonical which is "Microsoft from Linux world". Use Mint or POP_OS ;-)
    1
  458. There are such updates for Windows 7 So it will be the same for Windows 10 ;-)
    1
  459. Yep. With Russian govt. But it's still less secure.
    1
  460. More looks like a race condition
    1
  461.  @garygranato9164  This: https://techterms.com/definition/race_condition If you don't understand - show this video to one of your IT friends (preferably, to a programmer) and ask him could it be a race condition error.
    1
  462. Do you have something useful there? I would think again ;-)
    1
  463. Not sure about that ;-) For normies it's EASIER to watch adds that fucking do a few clicks! I actually asked...
    1
  464. Ha-ha! True ;-)
    1
  465. No But it's risky. And always was ;-)
    1
  466. It's on by default and can be disabled. I would suggest to use tweakers to disable it completely.
    1
  467.  @beardalaxy  Same with Session ;-)
    1
  468. 2.4+ are spooked is I'm not mistaken
    1
  469. It's worse (encryption is enabled only is secret chats + their encryption is proprietary)
    1
  470. xD
    1
  471. True But that's also the hardest way. Not a good way for most people
    1
  472.  @DonaldDeCicco  100% agree! Gaming on a heavily debloated Windows, working on a tweaked Linux Mint ;-)
    1
  473. Depends on your PC. For powerful PC that may take 10 hours ;-)
    1
  474. It will be hacked - just wait and you will see ;-)
    1
  475. You have a few choices: * Switch to Linux. You have to be a little bit more tech savvy than an average normie ;-) * Switch to Mac. You have to have money for that. Or buy used. * Don't switch. Just tweak your system and make it your bitch - not other way around xD
    1
  476. Which one of them? ;-)
    1
  477.  @gar1256  OpenSuse for a newcomer? Why? xD Why not go with Mint which is very user friendly and looks like Windows/Mac hybrid (I'm talking about Cinnamon DE and their custom applications and settings).
    1
  478. Try Heroic Launcher to play Genshin ;-)
    1
  479. * Or with Adblock Plus * Or by adding ad sites in hosts * Or by using Firewall + ad blocker list * Or by using Pi Hole with custor blacklist ;-)
    1
  480. That could be done using Raspberry Pi ;-)
    1
  481.  @LaughingMan539  Clever ;-)
    1
  482. * Check your PC specs * Check what videocard drivers do you use * If nothing helps - change your Desktop Environment (also, changing distro may help)
    1
  483. Here is the answer: https://youtu.be/ep_25HIArXc And no - short answer is not an option. The devil is in details.
    1
  484.  @Xmasta420  I'm just saying that people are making it harder than it really is. Just want people to know ;-)
    1
  485.  @DarkLink1996.  True!
    1
  486.  @francisjurksaitis  Or any browser with uBlock Origin ;-)
    1
  487. VLC can do anything. But it is not good at anything ;-)
    1
  488. Mozilla Firefox + uBlock Origins = zero problems ;-)
    1
  489. Linux Mint 22 uses the Kernel version 6.8 LTS ;-)
    1
  490. Just refuse to use WhatsUp - what would they do if they want to send you something ;-)
    1
  491. Making money ;-)
    1
  492. Depends on your distro ;-)
    1
  493. Google is collecting data - it's true. But it's not a "special agent" - it's a bot (a program). They collecting it to show you targeted advertisement and they don't care about you as a person.
    1
  494. Ubuntu is under Cannonical which is known for their... strange behavior. Use Mint or Pop-OS instead ;-)
    1
  495. It uses Bing and Google Search as backend as far as I know.
    1
  496. 0:22 - Riiiight... :-)
    1
  497.  @MagnusReardon  Every GPU costs 25 000$ Would there be a reason to steal it? ;-)
    1
  498. Depends on your technical skills :-) Google it and do step by step But I would recommend installing Linux on a USB 3.0 stick (NOT as LiveUSB - a real install)
    1
  499.  @souravmazumdar5583  That's why I recommend to install it on a USB drive ;-)
    1
  500. Sounds fun to me! Fun to brake their rules ;-)
    1
  501. Depends on who you are what what you do ;-)
    1
  502. Denying Internet access for a specific program is a smarter solution. Living in the past - not ;-)
    1
  503.  @aaron7c  Google "UpdatePack7R2". And also "wxKex" for compatibility with Windows 8+ programs.
    1
  504. Penguin is not that complex ;-)
    1
  505.  @weshuiz1325  True!
    1
  506. Yep - it's a new tool that could be for MANY goals!
    1
  507. Nothing that tweakers couldn't turn off ;-)
    1
  508.  @manwithonesub8360  +1
    1
  509. I would still recommend using TailsOS instead :-)
    1
  510. It is! And wearing down SSDs
    1
  511.  @Homme_Pur  I just read about it and no - it does not reduce lifespan. Just decreases performance (depends on specifics).
    1
  512. Sad but true!
    1
  513. Just use (for free): * O&O ShutUp++ (disables like 95%+ of telemetry) * QTTabs for tabs in Explorer
    1
  514. "Why won’t they make games work on Linux" - 2% marketshare. Too much hassle. But having Steam Deck REALLY helps with that. And use Steam + Proton or Lutris. Don't bother with just naked Wine ;-)
    1
  515.  @carpetworms_  ;-)
    1
  516. Being a Russian instantly makes a person bad? Isn't that racism at it's finest? ;-)
    1
  517. Add Void to the list ;-)
    1
  518.  @nkkalashnikov  True - it's not hard. It's just inconvenient. As other guy said - Linux From Scratch is the ultimate challenge! It has a book but you have to do EVERYTHING :-)
    1
  519. QTTabs
    1
  520. Are we talking about smartphone or PC? Adblock Browser for Smartphone and uBlock Origin plugin for PC ;-)
    1
  521.  @aetheralmeowstic2392  Still - not bad ;-)
    1
  522. Brave (still Chromium-based) or Firefox
    1
  523. Firefox 83 has A TON of vulnerabilities now - it wasn't updated in years ;-)
    1
  524. "What on earth would people use TOR for?" - journalist work for example
    1
  525.  @keyboardwarrior6296  True :-)
    1
  526. Yep!
    1
  527. Why Gentoo tho? xD
    1
  528.  @karpfenboy  Arch or Gentoo will brake any normie newcomer xD
    1
  529. Because it's "legal" and worldwide ;-)
    1
  530. Need any advice? * Use Windows Update Minitool to disable autoupdates * Use O&O Shutup10++ to disable 95% of telemetry * Use StartAllBack to have a Windows 10-like Start menu * Use Explorer Patcher to tweak 100+ things
    1
  531. It's not a problem for powerusers ;-)
    1
  532.  @rainbowskeppy5292  That was a random comment to boost this Youtube channel. Welcome to Youtube ;-)
    1
  533. Maybe tweakers could help ;-)
    1
  534. Not anymore - they changed the logic how it works :-)
    1
  535. 90%+ of users would NOT quit Windows or Mac no matter what would big company do to them ;-)
    1
  536. Nothing scary - all will be deleted just in Virtual Machine. So it easily can be restored :-)
    1
  537.  @thebeaverkidd2970  Thanks :-)
    1
  538. * Tweak Registry on any Windows 11 machine * Just make sure that disk is not encrypted after every big Windows 11 update Fun, right? xD
    1
  539. Firewalls are a thing ;-)
    1
  540. VeraCrypt or LUKS
    1
  541. Nope ;-) * It saves your phone number * It still save metadata. Not much, but there are other messengers that didn't * It uses centralized servers owned by Signal (that's a weak point)
    1
  542.  @noisycrusthead6024  True! But why give it to them so easily ;-)
    1
  543.  @PrettyBlueThings  PopOS is "a better Ubuntu" :-)
    1
  544. By selling the food. Some have jobs in a city.
    1
  545.  @aniksamiurrahman6365  Maybe those guys have 1 Starlink point than all of them share? ;-)
    1
  546. Why wouldn't it? It has a CPU, a lot of RAM and A LOT of videocards!
    1
  547. It appears too soft for a jumpscare ;-)
    1
  548.  @relt_  True :-)
    1
  549. Use tweakers to disable anything ;-)
    1
  550. That would be nasty! But tweakers exists ;-)
    1
  551. Looks like it Then we would just use another distro ;-)
    1
  552.  @egg5474  Just firewall is simpler
    1
  553. It DOES NOT require a webcam! It works just fine without it on my machine
    1
  554.  @ammarkov  Maybe But tweakers could disable that most likely ;-)
    1
  555.  @ammarkov  Normies will have problems whatever Microsoft do - that's just life ;-)
    1
  556. Need any advice? * Use Windows Update Minitool to disable autoupdates * Use O&O Shutup10++ to disable 95% of telemetry * Use StartAllBack to have a Windows 10-like Start menu * Use Explorer Patcher to tweak 100+ things
    1
  557. All of that could be disabled (with tweakers)
    1
  558. Any webpage + "Dark Reader" browser extension ;-)
    1
  559. Yep - that's a rookie mistake on his part ;-)
    1
  560. Nope! N is where all Media features are stripped off (EU regulations)
    1
  561.  @aim2986  Yo! :-) Jokes aside - it's a EU version where all Media is cutted off.
    1
  562. You can not declare an Exterminatus on a Holy Terra! :-)
    1
  563. Will that generate them more money? If not - you know the answer ;-)
    1
  564. " I'm not even 100% sure I could tolerate Windows 10, tbh" - tried to tweak it? ;-)
    1
  565. Yep ;-)
    1
  566. Yep! Same here ;-)
    1
  567. Dualbooting = asking for trouble You have been warned ;-)
    1
  568.  @atsizbalik  Windows braking Linux boot (or even the whole partition!) after some big updates. Google that - it's a fun read! xD
    1
  569. Almost no changes. Regressions in some cases.
    1
  570.  @tylerdean980  That's true. But in most situations people just casually watch Youtube videos at the evening. 50 Gb is "kinda" fine for that. But the bigger the limit - the better you can do.
    1
  571. Still check the out ;-)
    1
  572. On PC, almost ALL ads are easy to disable ;-)
    1
  573. @pee poo Ever heard about mass murderers? ;-) Or any other unadequate people? They do exist.
    1
  574. @pee poo Well. That's true I guess. But I still think that they do more that just catch political dissidents :-)
    1
  575. Did you tried it? ;-)
    1
  576.  @ComradeCommissar17  For different purposes: * Write code * Write a poem/article (you could literally try a few different variations and rewrite 5-10% and it's ready!) * Explain you something * Rephrase something * Generate an image * Generate audio (a different model) * Generate a video (a different model) * Help you to brainstorm any idea * Translate from one language to another. Clingon and both elvish variations are included! It's not great but pretty good!
    1
  577. QTTabs ;-)
    1
  578.  @edgepixel8467  Why not? Welcome to the Internet! ;-)
    1
  579.  @edgepixel8467  True! Some avatars are bizarre :-)
    1
  580. Agree!
    1
  581. That's not a problem for me - I will disable it (via hosts or any other means). I also have a Linux Manjaro KDE as backup.
    1
  582. "I hope BitLocker is smart enough" - check that manually ;-) "Hope is the first step to the road of disappointment" xD
    1
  583. They are obsessed with "security" now
    1
  584. There is zero reasons to update to Windows 11 for now ;-)
    1
  585. You should disable a lot of stuff in Windows 10 too ;-)
    1
  586. Never ;-) Normies are too dumb to learn anything at all. I learned Linux in just a week :-)
    1
  587. Why would you even trust any human? ;-)
    1
  588. PDF supports scripting -> use scripting to install a mini-Linux -> That mini-Linux is using PDF like a primitive Virtual Machine Something like that ;-)
    1
  589. Some people have random problems with it. Not me - it just works for me.
    1
  590. No reason. They could just read anything they would want too. Anytime. Instead of Recall doing this with big time intervals.
    1
  591. Mining is not just using NiceHash - some likes to use obscure programs. Some of them have to be compiled manually.
    1
  592. Learn how to tweak your OS ;-) Even if you would switch to Linux - you would still have to know how to do that ;-)
    1
  593.  @plazmaguy13yago9  Shit! You were faster! ;-) RTX 3070 Supra
    1
  594.  @plazmaguy13yago9  3080 and up are hot :-)
    1
  595. @LJ619 Yep!
    1
  596. We can't know for sure. Most likely not.
    1
  597. That's not a screamer in any way. It's not even a jumpscare - it appears very slowly.
    1
  598. For a few reasons: * Windows became shittier with every update * Privacy and security on Windows is non-existent. Telemetry everywhere. * There are much less viruses on Linux * When you tweaked your Linux - it just works! I'm still using Windows 10 and Linux Mint for different tasks ;-)
    1
  599.  @Dragonite789  A secondary PC/laptop could have many usecases. "Banking only PC", for example ;-)
    1
  600. I would like to! But I don't need a corporation to do that for me ;-)
    1
  601. You have a lot of normies around ;-)
    1
  602. Try Linux Mint - it'se very comfortable
    1
  603. Yep! Disable scripting support in your PDF viewer! ;-)
    1
  604. People are not ok that it's not GPL license anymore
    1
  605.  @Rinzee  Google "wxKex" ;-)
    1
  606.  @ShrirajHegde  True Maybe he likes VirtualBox more - who knows :-)
    1
  607.  @austinjames5516  By looking at dependencies ;-)
    1
  608. What browser and adblocker do you use? Have 0 problems with Firefox + uBlock Origin
    1
  609. By not interacting with a video: * Don't watch the video * Don't give like or dislike * Don't subscribe * Don't comment or like other's comments
    1
  610. If you want to! Rust is kinda like "making simple things a lot harder but making hard things a little simpler" in my experience.
    1
  611. Not much if you are not an exit node ;-)
    1
  612. Boomers would not use it. They don't like changes. Any changes.
    1
  613. The question is: why do you need so much privacy when you are talking with your family? How that information could be used against you? So if they could use Signal - convince them. If they can't - don't push.
    1
  614. "That just seems extremely stupid" - welcome to JS in general! ;-)
    1
  615.  @capitolia  Don't use passwords on a smartphone if you can!
    1
  616. Just install FF 100.0.2!
    1
  617. Why wouldn't it? It has a CPU, a lot of RAM and A LOT of videocards!
    1
  618. Just don't use it on Windows ;-)
    1
  619. I don't watch TV since 2011 ;-)
    1
  620. Cars can get an accident -> don't buy cars ;-)
    1
  621. "Ig the only way to escape from it is to use windows 10 again." - it's not the only way ;-)
    1
  622.  @BinaryMaestro1  Choices: * You can disable updates on Windows 11 before they would roll out this feature * You may use the latest version of Windows 11 but disable it yourself (preferably, using some tweaker) * You can use Windows 10 * You can switch to Linux So many options! ;-)
    1
  623. Use Windows Update Minitool for that (bottom left corner)
    1
  624. WhatsApp is owned by Facebook - it collects EVERYTHING ;-)
    1
  625. Brave
    1
  626. So? Windows 11 = Windows 10.1 (basically)
    1
  627. Machine Learning It's not 100% accurate of course
    1
  628. Maybe ;-)
    1
  629. Firefox is not affected tho ;-)
    1
  630. It's not the browser's work. You are talking about search engines :-)
    1
  631. Tor has some updates from 2012 ;-) But it's still a probelm
    1
  632. Just check it manually after update ;-)
    1
  633. Everything could be used against someone. People themselves are uploading all their information over the Internet just to brag ;-)
    1
  634.  @Ultra289  True. But there are "other systems" that are better as a Server ;-)
    1
  635. On PC: Firefox + uBlock Origin works for me ;-) No PiHole or third party programs required
    1
  636. Agree! Just don't use Ubuntu - it became too corporate ;-) Pop_OS or Mint are great alternatives. Both are Ubuntu based
    1
  637. Exactly.
    1
  638. Also PY, CMD
    1
  639. He could encrypt others but couldn't encrypt itself... Wait - he can! That's even worse! xD
    1
  640. Something isn't right... Try another distro - maybe they use different tweaks.
    1
  641. Not yet :-) But it may have the same problems in near future
    1
  642. De-bloating is a thing ;-)
    1
  643.  @AhmedAljazwi  Disable all other useless Services - sometimes Services interact with each other. So the less crap you have - the less interactions there will be.
    1
  644. Don't use WiFi - connect with a LAN cable. It's much more reliable.
    1
  645. You could fight with that if you want to. It's just inconvenient ;-)
    1
  646. @rusi6219 Any proof of that? It's Open Source so you could even show where exactly that backdoor is ;-) Not a Rust fan, btw
    1
  647. Of course you can! But why not copy it and save to a *.txt file? ;-)
    1
  648. It's little bit more free but a little bit worse worse with all Google related :-)
    1
  649.  @jingiant  It's not about agreeing - it's about being more openminded. Of course Grok has it's own bias and not fully uncensored. I''m still mostly using ChatGPT 4.0o and o3 mini
    1
  650. You will be fine IF you are not against some tweaks ;-)
    1
  651. Tweakers. Try them ;-)
    1
  652. Greed, probably?
    1
  653. Linux Mint: * Install * Use All additional tweaks and not really necessary ;-)
    1
  654.  @brandemon6667  You don't have to buy anything. Restrictions are childishly easy to bypass ;-)
    1
  655. Mint or Pop_OS and definitely not Ubuntu ;-)
    1
  656. Try it in VM ;-)
    1
  657. It's "a thing". With pros and cons: + It protects you data from stealing (if your laptop would physically steal) - It slows down and wear out your SSD - If you loose the key - you loose your data.
    1
  658. Google "<yourphonename> check app permissions"
    1
  659. Shouldn't software be politic-agnostic? ;-) I don't need a pro-Putin and anti-Putin software! I need just software!
    1
  660. @JustVictor 17 OwO is more like an emotion and less of an information. A playful one :-)
    1
  661. @milk grapes That's true! But I also tweak any Linux distro after installing so I kinda ok with that ;-)
    1
  662. Try Mint next Then Manjaro Distributions doesn't matter at the end ;-) Ubuntu is THE closest to Windows in terms of being restrictive and annoying...
    1
  663.  @zicraftian  You could use TimeShift and backup your "home" folder so you could restore it on another Linux Distro. ;-) Trying new Linux distros in a Virtual Machine could help too (you would keep your current system with all the settings). Or trying them on a USB (via "Live CD" feature or just installing them on a USB drive) All of that needs a little bit of googling of course ;-)
    1
  664.  @zicraftian  Take care! :-)
    1
  665. "Why spend money when you could make money?" - every big company ;-)
    1
  666.  @shifureisaikyou2055  Cosmic Desktop is in Alpha - not Rust itself...
    1
  667. Easier solution: use Windows Update Minitool to switch updates to Manual ;-)
    1
  668. You should back up ANYWAYS! ;-)
    1
  669. School teaches how to be a good citizen and a good worker. Nothing more ;-)
    1
  670.  @ocsanik502  That's true!
    1
  671. But they are just encrypted - not broken ;-)
    1
  672. Agree! But NOT Mint Debian based - that would just add additional problems for new users ;-) I would suggest Linux Mint 22 Cinnamon x64 (not LMDE which is Debian based!)
    1
  673.  @bacalhau_seco  Maybe. But Arch-based for a newcomer... I'm not sure about that ;-) Same with Manjaro and EndeavourOS I don't think that Linux Kernel v6.8 would be too old for most people's hardware. But if you are tech savvy - CachyOS or EndeavourOS would be a good choice!
    1
  674. Oof! Try to do something with that - 32 bit is dying
    1
  675.  @Lacter12  Nice )
    1
  676. Yes but you can't use the latest versions of Adobe products that way. I heard that cracked versions works better tho. Not tested myself.
    1
  677.  @DarkSoul-ds2  "Not easily"
    1
  678. It could! But you also can disable scripting in your PDF viewer and you will be safe! ;-)
    1
  679. That was a good joke about Russians that DON"T want to create an Orwellian wasteland out of the internet! Maybe, that's because I'm too close to Russia? ;-)
    1
  680. A good question :-)
    1
  681.  @TheJackiMonster  Valid point
    1
  682. True!
    1
  683. xD - What is that! - Shit! We lost him!
    1
  684. Most people are too lazy and stupid to care about that ;-)
    1
  685. Ummm... * Buy laptop with any Linux distro (so you wouldn't pay for Windows license) * Install any Windows that you want to! ;-)
    1
  686. Or just disable it manually ;-) Be a normie and pay or be a poweruser and do whatever you want - not them
    1
  687. There are other browsers already ;-) And they exist for a loooong time
    1
  688. Why not try to boot from a flash drive and format it that way? ;-)
    1
  689. ZorinOS is a thing for a long time ;-)
    1
  690. Google how to find similar pictures ;-)
    1
  691. Very useful data indeed ;-)
    1
  692. xD
    1
  693. Don't do it for free ;-)
    1
  694.  @madbruv  Start writing one ;-)
    1
  695. Use alternative Youtube Apps that just don't have adds ;-)
    1
  696.  @peeboo  I would recommend to INSTALL Linux on Usb Flash instead on using Live. It's easy! * Make one Flash drive "Live USB" (you already have that) * Use it to install Linux on second USB flash drive. Just make sure that bootloader is also on the second USB drive. * DONE! Now you have a normal installation on your second USB drive :-)
    1
  697. In crypto circles - yes it is.
    1
  698. Tails all the way! More secure and faster
    1
  699.  @CockatooDude  +1
    1
  700. Most likely. It's Arch ;-)
    1
  701. True. But now anyone could get it
    1
  702. Same!
    1
  703. Yep! It's also available for Windows 10
    1
  704. True!
    1
  705. External drives should be switched off for security reasons anyways ;-) I'm talking about ransomware attack. And Windows Updates. They are pretty close tho xD
    1
  706. This video was about search engines :-)
    1
  707. Yep!
    1
