At home, at the table. However, while I'm living in halls, I prefer to eat on the sofa.

I think I'll be going for the T14. Thank you!
Hey, Lemmy. I've recently broken my ten-year-old MacBook in a mishap involving some ionic cleaning fluids, and I am looking to replace it with a ThinkPad. I am currently at uni, studying cybersecurity, and this particular course also has a lot of software development at the start. I also would be looking to play some videogames (nothing too taxing though; really just Minecraft, Terraria, Stardew Valley, etc.; assuming I don't go for FreeBSD instead of Linux), watch some videos, and do a bit of video editing. The device being replaced was a mid-2014 MacBookPro11,1 A1502. Compared to my other hardware, though, this is a powerhouse. I have already looked at a few models (namely the T450 and the X1 Carbon Gen. 10), but these have always had a snag or two that are a deal breaker. Of course, I will be running either Linux, BSD, or some other *nix. In terms of specs, I would be needing: * At least 8GB of RAM (or upgradable to/past) * A CPU equal or better than the i5 in the Mac * At least 256GB of storage (SSD preferable, but not essential) * 1400x900 resolution or higher * WiFi drivers available for BSD * Decent battery life * Screen must be less than 17", or it won't fit in my bag * Ideally no more than five years old; although an older ThinkPad could be doable * Either AMD-based or made after 2018 (to prevent Meltdown attacks, should I decide to run Linux-libre or something else without microcode updates) Unless a device is ridiculously expensive, the cost shouldn't be a problem. Also, I live in the UK. So, any suggestions?

Eh, kinda. It's not quite as easy to escape from GApps as it is to install Linux, though, so it's understandable.
My advice is to look into LineageOS, DivestOS, and GrapheneOS and see if your device is supported by anyone. If not, it's possible to remove GApps using ADB, and you can use NextDNS to block tracking.

Gotta love FreeTube. PokeTube also works decently, although it only supports subscriptions via RSS.

Well, that explains how the NSA keep getting in every so often.

He also said fast forward to today. It could have been years between him signing "I love you" and saying "marry me"

That would be more believable if it was RFK Jr.

I like SchildiChat the most, since it has a nice UI and supports both E2EE and calls.

It doesn't really resist fingerprinting that well. Also, theming GTK4 kinda blows.
Still, 'tis an option.

We need to either make a WebKit-based privacy browser, or try and bring Goanna more up to date with modern web standards.

- Subsribe to TheLinuxExperiment
- Install vanilla Arch Linux using archinstall or a third-party helper script
- Install vanilla Arch Linux using either a guide or the wiki
- Play around with other distributions, such as Debian and Fedora
- Play around with special distributions, such as Devuan (which doesn't use systemd), Alpine (which doesn't use glibc), Dragora (which uses Linux-libre), Arch Hurd (which uses
rms' Hurd kernel), or even a BSD (which does not use the Linux kernel). - Find your niche

I've seen this enough times that I laughed without watching it. Funny stuff.

I mean, technically the celery had some practical uses. It helped to revive Peri after she came down with spectrox toxaemia, and its main purpose was to detect praxis gases (to which the Doctor was allergic, and with cause the celery to turn purple).

Alpine, mainly. It's not bad on desktop.
I [18NB] am starting uni in Edinburgh, Scotland tomorrow. Since I'll be living a good distance away from home, I was thinking of buying some pride merch and stuff. However, it has crossed my mind that safety could be an issue. I wouldn't have thought that Edinburgh would have issues, but I think it's best to ask Lemmy: **On the whole, is Edinburgh a safe place to be myself?**

Don't let the title fool you! This is not anti-FOSS!
