Gnome on one machine, LXDE on another.
I use Gnome on my main laptop, a Thinkpad P50. I bought it with a dock thinking I’d use it at my desk and on the sofa but it’s a bit of a beast so that stays on my desk and I use an L440 with LXDE on the sofa. Considering trying LCARS on the sofa machine.
Same. Gnome currently but will certainly be trying Cosmic
Round trip that can make changes? Probably a few hundred or even thousand years ago, so I could give them modern technology, information about climate change, try to educate people on social issues, etc
What tech would you take back if you could though?
I had a nightmare that a video of me accidentally bumping into a woman and knocking her out of her wheelchair went viral, turning me into a social pariah. I lost my job, my family abandoned me and I got hounded by people everywhere I went. It was one of the few times I remembered a dream very vividly and was genuinely releived when I woke up and realised it wasn’t real. Don’t know where the hell that came from.
Saves time in the morning as opposed to the evening. Like only a minute or two but any time I can save in the morning I’ll take.
Your mother was cold and soggy by the next morning too
Damn straight
My eggs in the morning.
The night before I mix two eggs with a little milk and put it in a microwavable mug. Then microwave it for 30 seconds, stir and repeat twice. It creates a round slab of egg that I put on a piece of buttered toast with ketchup spread on it.
Where’s the socks?
No, but cheese is a kind of meat https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5fc_2BxVurM
I second this. OsmAnd has done me well for several years.
So it’s just paranoia then…
Yea, not going to lie that is probably the primary motivator here.
I don’t trust Chrome, Zoom or Teams, but sometimes have to use them. I will keep them in a separate VM but will look into Firefox profiles.
It’s not that much work. I created a VM which is running the same distro as the host. I removed all of the apps except for the terminal. Then I cloned it for each VM I need.
The Whatsapp/ email client VM and the Librewolf VM start with my OS so it’s like having them in separate windows. The others I only start if needs be.
I’m also based in the UK. I don’t run a business but have occasionally encountered problems trying to use Librewolf on the web, especially with Noscript on.
I tried to use Qubes to separate my activities into VMs but I found it difficult. So I did my own, less extreme, approach using KVM.
I created a virtual machine which only has Chrome on it. This is what I use for accessing my bank, Paypal and doing online shopping.
I have a second machine I use for Whatsapp and email and finally a third with Librewolf for general web browsing.
Each uses the same VPN service but different servers.
I only use Freetube and Retroarch on my main machine.
This is on a very beefy Thinkpad I essentially use as a desktop in my office. I use a smaller machine downstairs with VNC on it as a remote when I’m sat on my sofa.

Interesting how times change and now they’re simply money grubbing assholes that don’t care about locking content behind paywalls? Fuck em. They’re fucking corporate suits like anyone else now.
Little strong, but hey, I’m with you ultimately.
They don’t get to hide from the endless stream of copycat “adult” cartoons that all try to out-offend each other. They’re all trash and none of them have ever equaled what South Park originally brought to the table.
Yea, a lot of newer adult animations like say Brickleberry and Crash Canyon really suck. But South Park is just a part of that story. The Filntstones, Jetsons, Simpsons, Beavis and Butthead and King of the Hill all predated it and Family Guy, American Dad came out not long after.

I used LXDE for a while on old crappy machines when I first started using Linux so just used to it I guess
