Windows 10 only has a year of support: 12 months left to keep Copilot off your desktop or learn Linux
  • You install Steam, enable proton compatibility (on all games or on RL specifically), download and launch the game. Even more chance that it works on the first try with Arch linux-based distro, since the kernel version is closer to the ones running on the Steam Deck.

    If you got the game from the Epic Games store, you download and install Heroic games launcher and proton. In the game settings, you specify the install path of proton and it should be good to go

  • Meta settles Texas privacy lawsuit for $1.4 billion over allegations that the tech giant illegally used facial recognition technology to collect biometric data of millions without their consent
  • I was wondering how real this statement, so I did the napkin math:

    The average american salary is just shy of 60k[1]. If we follow a 50/30/20 budget[2], 20% goes into savings, so 12k. Assuming that the savings of an average person is roughly similar to a company's revenue, we get 36.46B / 12k ~= 3 million times more revenue per year

    So this 1.2B fine is equivalent to: 1.2B / 3M = 467$ for an average American

    (I repeat, this is napkin math, but I think it still shows how small the fine is)

  • It's time to move to Linux - YouTube
  • You could try EndeavourOS, it's based off Arch, so 99% of the Arch wiki can be directly applied to your system, and the installation process is much more normal with a GUI and a selection of Desktop Environment to choose from.

    The hardest part with Arch is getting the initial setup working imo, so you can put a few more hours trying to install it (if you're ready to bear the frustration that might come with it) or pick a distro like EndeavourOS with a GUI installer to get a working system quicker.

  • am i just bad at devops?
  • Gitlab-runner exec and act are great tools, but this goes out of the window as soon as the cloud hosting service is a little less intelligent (looking at you, azure DevOps, who removed the hack that let pipeline run locally in 2019)

  • What's the best advice you've ever received?
  • Tbf I'm really not savvy in loans, but I mean any amount of money X that you have to pay back with Y% of interest in Z days. If you take that loan and you know an investment that will guarantee you (Y+1)% then you should borrow money. (That conclusion is of course completely neglecting risk management)

  • What's the best advice you've ever received?
  • Depends on the point of view. If your biggest risk is you spending that loan money on gambling, then yes paying the debt early would help you get in less trouble.

    From an economic point of view, if you don't need that money at the moment, you should invest it, so that you can make a few bucks. If you get 1-2% more on every transaction that way, it really does stack up at the end, since this will make you exponentially more money.

  • Why is Obsidian on the list?? How is a closed source electron app for editing markdown files a good cybersecurity tool/privacy respecting? I could use nano to do the same job with much more confidence for my privacy.
