My motorcycle.

It was bought due to a necessity.

I didn’t quite get the motorcycle I was looking for, and had to settle for this one from a different manufacturer. During the short test ride the problems were not glaring, it was when I rode it for a somewhat long duration that I came to know how bad it was. What’s worse is things changed and my necessity to need a personal mode of transport was eliminated, so I barely need to use it daily anymore. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Tried getting a few modifications done to make it a more comfortable ride, and while it’s better than stock now it’s still not where I need it to be.

You and I are part of a very small user set. I would be happy with 5.5 inch screen as well if my SoT can be 8 hours or more.

What is your threat model like ? Who are you intending to guard yourself against ?

Is it an assembled PC or a pre-built ? Pre-builts may come with some form of tracking. OS support also may be a concern on some pre-builts.

Maybe something like Debian 12 testing might be a good Linux option to consider, of course Windows or Mac are not recommended for the privacy conscious amongst us. Debian is not the most user friendly to get installer image of, but it has a fairly straightforward GUI based setup for a fresh install.

In case Windows is a requirement then probably look into the Tron script, helps automate a lot of things you might need as privacy settings (among other actions performed by the script).

Any particular resources that you trust to share proper information?

I got the joke, my response was in extension to it :)

Reading this, I’m not able to interpret what emotion applies here.

To get governments interested in it… for tracking it’s own netizens… because just about everyone is dealing with CSAM!

Like many people of the Lemmy-verse, I know how to drive a manual (can’t say I am best, or better than average even).

Cannot afford to own a car in this economy. Have a geared motorcycle tho.

TL;DR of the article - Arcane > Cyberpunk Edgerunners > Castlevania > Sonic Boom > The Last of Us > The Witcher.

Yep, it ran for a whole season.

Edit: I don’t remember which season it was on, it was a couple of seasons ago. Probably just after the Ben Swolo thing became popular.

The entire joke that Last Week Tonight with John Oliver ran about this was fantastic.

I was gonna write about the fascist aspects of the country, but I wouldn’t say that it’s something completely unknown; many of my peers are okay with fascism just because there is no centerist alternative, as what we have already seen leftists are not going to be better given the same amount of power.

When it comes to religion, it should have been a personal thing rather than systematically integrating it with each aspect of our lives like how it was initially intended.

Sometime earlier in my life I took a decision of not going to my place of worship; this helped decouple my belief in something bigger that I don’t understand, and a cult made by man.

Warez piracy is anyway not “stealing” since you’re not taking the digital item away, tis something which can be infinitely copied.

Like Adobe / Microsoft / Google / Meta / … maybe most large enterprises ? No question about it.

This didn’t tickle my fancy, but I can see why the videos are popular.

.7z is supported by most popular applications, and offers better compression than a .zip or .rar in my experience.

Unless you’re saying normally people rely on Windows Explorer for their (de)compression needs ? (⁠･⁠o⁠･⁠;⁠)

You could add Summoning Salt to this list. I’m not really otherwise interested in world record attempts, but something about his narration is so good.

Another fun addition could be Oversimplified.

Could you elaborate on your point of them using Cloudflare ?

My understanding is that their websites would be behind Cloudflare for their CDN and anti-DDoS services, maybe WAF as well. Solely looking at CDN services essentially the options come down to Cloudflare or Akamai who have a global domination of the market.
