I generally agree but not everyone can choose where they work. For many people, the choice is starving on the street or work for Evil Corp.

That still wouldn’t get past your firewall
All of my services run on LXC containers. Some files and configs are backed up to NAS and offsite. The containers are snapshotted in their entirety before I do any work on them. A snapshot takes 5 seconds to make and causes no downtime. If I regret a change or mess it up, I can restore the snapshot in under a minute at the cost of some seconds of downtime.
My only non-container machines are my desktop (doesn’t count), my NAS and the Hypervisor. The Hypervisor is very clean and wouldn’t be much fuss to reinstall and the NAS is literally just Debian with NFS. All of these have a regular rsync which runs to backup the important files.
By having it be a container
This is still relying on the bot being nice enough to tell you that it’s a bot; it could just not.
Earfun Air pro 3 works and technically let you access most functions through the 2 tiny touchpads but the app isn’t invasive at all, either. The app will chug along without even mentioning it if you disable its access to the internet entirely and it never asked for any permissions. I used them without the app for a while but eventually I wanted to turn ANC on and I thought the app was the only way but in retrospect I could’ve read the manual and found the touchpad tap-sequence to do the same thing.
I kind of miss Unity in the same way I miss Windows XP; I would never use it now but it has a place in my heart.
I’ve been “on” linux for a decade and even ran it on my desktop without dualbooting for months at a time back in the Ubuntu 16 days. A few months ago I’d had enough of the Microsoftisms and installed straight Debian with i3wm on my desktop with intentions of dualbooting Windows for the rare graphical work I do. Maybe once a month. I managed to boot that thing 8 times, none without issues, before it finally stopped booting alltogether and I spent 14 hours yesterday trying to reinstall it to no success. It would commit suicide on second boot consistently and I said well dog darnit then. I guess I have to bite this bullet and learn how to do my graphical workflow on Linux.
Honestly, I should have done that sooner. I’m now Adobe and Windows free and I have literally no reason to go back. There’s nothing I need or miss. All my games work (thanks valve) and all my creative tools are here in some capacity. There aren’t many bugs I encounter daily in i3wm, and none are showstoppers.
Shoutout to Blender for being superior to industry standards, and Darktable for being good enough.
they fuel the internet
no they don’t
they fuel shitty companies
The people who love GOS have different expectations than you. I, for example, come from a series of shitty modern dumb-phones, so being able to use a modern smartphone with all of its benefits without Google weighing me down is incredible.
I would probably also not like it if I was in the apple ecosystem. I would have higher expectations and it would be a downgrade in that sense.
no but I’m public domain- you can rearrange my face if you want UwU
Actually she’s copyleft, if a man fucks my GF then he also has to fuck me
Or they see the writing on the wall
It’s mindless chaos. This is a trend across most MP FPS games. TF2 has 2fort and turbine, also tiny maps of pure chaos.
I enjoy it when I want to play but I don’t want to commit to being hyper competitive.
Well, obviously they don’t want you to!
CAD has never clicked in my brain but I have a relatively non-destructive workflow in Blender from a decade of experience and it’s not really a problem to me. I can make the model far more precise than any printer I have access to can print. I’m too stupid to explain it unfortunately, but I essentially just make use of Blender’s built in measuring tools
Forgive me if it sounds preachy, but have you tried Blender?
I use that for my 3d printing and game-ready modelling.
For 3D stuff (games, 3d modelling) I use Brave.
Can you elaborate on this? What exactly are you doing?

Hosting videogames on a dedicated box for me and the boys when I was 16 got me more interested in networking and when I had finished my mostly unrelated education, I pivoted hard to IT. I don’t currently work in IT and I don’t know if I ever will again because my handicap and location make it hard to find jobs but essentially:
Self-hosting came first, then came the tech ‘background’.
