The latest few reports have linked even mild drinking to increased cancer risks.

WebKit based browsers like GNOME Web do still exist and do a reasonable job. That’s funded by Apple though so…
Yes. I donate to various open source projects (e.g., KDE, Sunshine, Dark Reader), the conservation fund, the ACLU, and the EFF.
As for how, I try to do it via their preferred platform on an annual basis instead of monthly (if possible) to minimize fees.
Why? I believe charity is a path towards shaping the world for the better (and I can afford to). Rule #1: take care of yourself before taking care of others.

This song. My freshman year roommate is probably responsible for a million of those plays and he ALWAYS played it at max volume on his laptop.
Either his mom filled out his roommate survey or the university didn’t read them. That was a rough semester.
I echo the suggestion to support local shops, but I do occasionally go with a larger chain… It’s not better pizza than the local shops it’s just a different pizza.
I tend to prefer Domino’s over Pizza Hut and especially over Papa John’s (something about their formulation tends to upset my stomach way more than any other pizza… Plus the former CEO is very active in politics and not in a way I approve of).
To my Domino’s tastes significantly better … Pizza Hut used to be great, but I’ve been thoroughly unimpressed every time I’ve tried it in recent memory.
There’s also local variance in these chains; some towns have a better Pizza Hut than Domino’s 🤷♂️
For me it’s a mix of what you said and how they treat their employees/where they’re making the product.
I spend extra time trying to find higher priced, higher quality, more fairly manufactured products.
I agree honestly. I’ve gone through the exact process op has described several times now and flew even more before the process started.
I think the lines are worse than they used to be. I have not seen the scan improve anything. The only time I’ve seen things move slower for me is recently the agent hadn’t done an opt out in a while and had to remember how to do it. The TSA precheck line I was in did not have opt out signs posted. I just politely asked anyways (and they did comply).
I had a similar situation happen with customs where the guy was confused by my request and hadn’t done one it the old way in a while but honored it without argument.
ClamAV is mostly for filtering things on mail servers or uploads to a shared resource like a wiki.
You can also use it as a system virus scanner, but most viruses it detects are Windows viruses.
What companies use Kaspersky?
Isn’t this mostly a consumer level issue?
I’d settle for first party repair and a repair window of up to 20 years.
Modification is great and should always be legal… But I’d take the win to get away from so much throwaway technology.
Not as complicated, but the parts are bigger. Few would want an even bigger smart watch just to get repairability.
Can’t comment on the DOCSIS, I don’t know enough about it to not be making stuff up.
Regarding WiFi though… The simple answer is if you’re not having trouble accessing the WiFi in the places you use the WiFi and you’re getting the full speed that you’re paying for, there’s not a ton of a reason to upgrade the router.
The exception to this is that most routers only get a few years of security updates like most phones… That can potentially leave your network more vulnerable as the router might not properly block unsolicited traffic from making it to your devices. There’s a solid argument that you should just have your devices secured via their own firewalls though.
The Google routers are nice for the average Joe because they just kind of work and keep themselves updated (and Google tends to keep the hardware they sell under the Nest name receiving security updates a VERY long time compared to the competition). Netgear has been my go to for years but their update mechanism is … fairly manual in my experience.
I’ve since moved to having a pfSense box for the firewall and routing side of things and using my old negate router in access point mode (I’m much less concerned about this setup).
I’ll add that I don’t recommend WiFi for gaming… And that most people have more download speed than they really “need.” Files really haven’t gone up in size much (sure games have) but evening else… meh (?). Video streaming is more popular but unless you’ve got a lot of people in your home or you stream at 4k, it’s really not going to be that noticable between 30Mbps and 1Gbps. So like, by all means if you don’t want to spend money, don’t… you’re probably fine.
They definitely could’ve been Proton, but they’ve just constantly played follow the leader into obscure things like making a new operating system instead of useful products.
Even when they do make something useful, it’s normally tied to Firefox in a “you MUST use Firefox” kind of way, which is just so unnecessary.
Honestly it just feels like so much stuff is car hostile at this point… Like I went to leave a store the other day and I couldn’t clearly see oncoming traffic because the shrubs were too high and right next to the road.
I wish I could say that was a really uncommon experience.
Honestly a huge portion of the problem is asshole drivers that just don’t turn off their brights and their fog lights or that tailgate the vehicle right in front of them while their headlights are mirror level.
I’ve seen brand new trucks with LEDs that were so easy on my eyes then I’ve seen the exact same model of truck via rearview mirror only after I passed it because the lights were beyond blinding.
They need to enforce maximum luminosity laws with an iron first; it’s ridiculous that people get away with this stuff.
The memes that I remember being all over Reddit about “where did you get that code … I stole it [from stack overflow]” honestly terrified, and continue to, terrify me.
Man, that’s the kind of relationship I dream about… Though swap the climb for a hike because I’m deathly afraid of heights 😂
Yeah it would be great to get clarity on what exactly this means for Linux.
I think it might mean the shader cache for a DirectX Windows game can be used for a DXVK VKD3D Linux game (which might help with stuttering weirdness) but I’m unsure.
FYI as someone that’s colorblind these captcha’s don’t seem to have anything specially relevant to being colorblind in them.
Now if they start showing me a dozen traffic cones and asking me to pick the green one, we might have a problem.
