Well, it works on my machine.
18M I like computers, trains, space, radio-related everything and a bunch of other tech related stuff. User of GNU+Linux.
I am also dumb and worthless.
My laptop is HP 255 G7 running Manjaro and Linux Mint.
I own RTL-SDRv3 and RSP1 clone.

Well, it works on my machine.
Good idea.
You can still get the newest DD-WRT builds even on the WRT54G.
That is a Wi-Fi router from 2002.
Of course, the features are sort of limited. I tried the VPN build (on WRT54GL), but I couldn’t get the OpenVPN client to connect. I found some thread mentioning it may be missing something, but I don’t know if that’s the issue.
Anyway, without overclocking I’d expect like 2Mbps. I mean, it barely handles HTTPS. Just trying to load the WebUI maxes out the CPU for several seconds if trying to use HTTPS.
Perhaps it’s not missing anything software-wise, but it’s just so slow it times out during handshake.
So I just put the std build on it in case it will be useful at some point.
I can get it on Android too, but for like 3 years or even more.
But only if using US VPN.
I don’t know what qualifies as “girl” music.
I don’t want to get a license only to forget everything because I won’t drive.
I see having a car as a necessity only. For me, it’s only acceptable if public transport/bicycle is not an option. Unfortunately, the latter is almost never an option due to how everything is built car-centric, but the former very often is.
Also, I don’t know anything about cars, I don’t have to think where to park that huge piece of shit, I don’t need to be my own driver, I don’t need to do any maintenance, it’s more ecological and even cheaper than just gas.
I can be comfortable from 90F to about 100F.
I envy you. I am already hot at 65F…
Go somewhere further away by a coach bus. Or maybe a 1st class train ticket (as a student I can travel in 2nd class for free in most trains).
I like travelling. Just sitting in a bus/train doing nothing.
Simple answer: No.
Find a job I’d love.
I don’t want to be useless, but now I wouldn’t have to be worried about money.
Nope.
Few days ago over an imaginary situation lasting 8 hours. I did write it all down, and I still have it saved, but it’s pretty weird.
I wrote this down shortly after and it’s just been residing in a note-taking app. Perhaps you could consider it NSFW since it discusses death in not the best manner.
I’ll just plop it here into a spoiler if you want to read it:
So, we had a discussion on 1st aid also involving CPR. Apparently mouth-to-mouth is also required where I live.
I tried to imagine such a situation, and over the course of around 8 hours spiralled into worse and worse thoughts as I kept overthinking every aspect of it more and more.
I’ll try to just lay them into separate points:
I don’t know how I’d deal with this in reality. Of course I wouldn’t have 8 hours to overthink everything.
Of course, this is just imagination with lots of overthinking, but I often spiral into thoughts like this. It feels like I am internally fighting myself about what’s right and what isn’t. Twice I got into such thoughts so much I couldn’t physically stand until I calmed down at least a bit.
Sup.
I am an awful person.
Well, this sets a new level of recent here judging by the comments.
Desktop OS: Linux Mint 20 MATE. Yep, that’s right. I only got my first proper computer in 2020.
Thankfully, I had to install the OS myself, which was of course preceded by choosing an OS.
I had Windows 10 on that laptop for 2 days which served me to compare different OSs and burn the install DVD. I had no flash drives, and just dug out one old DVD-RW. OK, I’ll be honest, hearing about Linux first I was searching for “just Linux”, pure Linux, not derivatives. Oh well, GNU+Linux copypasta actually being helpful.
Alright, but why did I “have” to install an OS if I got it with Windows? It was used. I did reset it, but even though it was my first proper PC, I had no lack of paranoia. I thought that someone before me could have put spyware on that.
And I was right. Not the way I thought, but I was. That someone was Microsoft.
I am not a programmer, I just barely wrote one bash script in the past. But I’d say more comments are better than too few.
When I later wanted to edit it, I got completely lost. I wrote it with absolutely no comments.
Absolutely.
I can put on more clothes, but I can’t strip my skin. I mean, with enough dedication I probably could…
However, some older programs may actually behave better in Wine than say on Windows 11.
Oh, it also supports ancient 16 bit programs which Windows doesn’t anymore.
I also just do this. However I have already found 2 photos that got randomly corrupted, and I don’t know how to prevent that.
So far my only idea was using md5sum, but checking all files like that takes a loooooooooong time.
I am paranoid about cloud. I do have my music backed up on OneDrive, encrypted with GPG using AES256, but I don’t even fully trust that. I know, it sounds stupid, but maybe in the future it will be quite easy to break.
But I don’t know much about encryption. Just reading the man page, I put these options together:
--s2k-cipher-algo AES256 --s2k-digest-algo SHA512 --s2k-mode 3 --s2k-count 65011712
but whether I can consider that safe enough, I don’t know.
And since I don’t know enough about it, I prefer not to trust it.
Other stuff uses G-Drive storage too, like G-Mail, Android google backups and apps you give access to your storage.
Unfortunately, when I go to G-Drive website and click on storage, it just shows as “other” without telling me what it actually is (except G-Mail and Photos).
I’ll start with the fact that I kind of like the smell of gasoline,
That is not nearly unpopular.
For me, pure Isopropyl alcohol (as in not part of some product). Reminds me of doctor’s office when I was a kid, and I like it.
They just pull out of those states. How is that an attack?
