I think you're being too generous. I'm probably not alone in saying that a 10% price increase gives me 0% interest in buying a new laptop.

Does anyone have experience using Friendica primarily as an RSS reader? Could it function as an alternative to web-based RSS readers like Feedly?

What if I never used Meta in the first place? What does that make me? Am I a virtue signaller too?

In Vancouver, Canada, we have a journalist named St. John Alexander who pronounces his first name as "Sinjin." I heard him say it on TV and it sounded weird. His profile even mentions it.

He's often asked about his name. St. John is originally British and is pronounced "Sinjin." His parents discovered it in Charlotte Bronte's novel Jane Eyre.

I wasn't sure if Lemmuy-UI in the results list was a typo or an alternative interface. Now I know. 😄

No! I recently started going back to the office, so the Google One VPN was an easy way for me to bypass the restrictions on my company's Wi-Fi network.

The title mentions Ubuntu and Fedora, but I ran cat /proc/sys/vm/max_map_count on my openSUSE Tumbleweed system and it also uses 1048576.

I no longer use Linux Mint, but I really enjoyed the decade I spent on it. The kernel change seems like a good move considering Mint is targeted towards desktop users.

I use OpenWRT on my Linksys WRT3200ACM because I used to have a cable connection that suffered from bufferbloat. The SQM feature made a huge improvement. I eventually switched to a fiber connection from a different ISP which does not suffer from bufferbloat, but I kept OpenWRT on my router.

I'm not the person you're replying to, but I'm guessing it's for Google Photos storage. It's the reason I pay for Google One.
