Set up split tunneling for your torrenting program only.

Fuck around with proprietary software and find out.

Echt geil! Thanks for the write-up.

Can’t argue with that.

Good questions. I don’t know, but it’s unlikely that Rust will be included in the base system anytime soon. It is of course available as a package.

That’s really interesting! Thank you for sharing that with me!

Makes more sense and I agree, especially with the apparent ease of pip install --user. But there should be no barriers when the root user is used with pip install --system.

Couldn’t have said it better. 😆

The corporitization of linux continues. I jumped to BSD. Just linux at work now.

Our cats really like the electric heated pillows to lay on. We keep the house ~60F so if we’re out for a significant period of time, the hot water bottle wouldn’t work. Plus good luck getting a kid to hold on to a hot water bottle while moving around.

I hate this hand-holding. Certainly use venvs for dev projects but allow system-wide installations for those that want it. OSS has always been about giving you enough rope to hang yourself.

I like this, will have to check out the novels for my kids too!

Sometimes it is for the best.

Sorry, embarrassing. I meant radicale. Got my self hosting mixed up!

I prefer prosody.

Change is not always for the best. I used to like Linux for the stability.

At the end of the day, just move providers. Can’t beat the hydra!

Good arguments in this thread! Cheers

Do these dreams require remote work? When we bought a house, proximity to public transportation and centers of employment were large considerations. How can that be resolved if some people working in “the big city” while others work remotely and others work in an exurban location?

I hear that. But my wife and I regularly debate about the role of family. I don’t know if it’s more American culture to view family as more “disposable”, e.g. they can be cut-off if toxic, etc. Being originally an (eastern) European, my mentality is that family (or blood-bonds to be dramatic) are always more serious than friends. To that end, I always thought having a large villa with multiple wings for multi-generational housing would be more appealing. My mother and wife (stereotype much?) don’t get along, so maybe a challenging proposition…
