  I’m not opposed to ditching them but could you provide me an article or source for these controversies?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨WhatsApp officially names Mullvad and Amnezia VPN as go-to tools for bypassing censorship⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨day⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve used PIA for years with no issues.

  Why would anyone still be using LastPass?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨From Microsoft to Microslop to Linux: "Why I Made the Switch"⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Switched my Mom to Kubuntu from Windows 10. Haven’t had any issues. The only windows software she used was an older version of Quicken but GNUCash wasn’t too much for her to pickup. It’s nice no longer having to rely on M$ for home computing.

  Fool me once, shame on you.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google sent personal and financial information of student journalist to ICE⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Your right, we should make our homes vulnerable to unlawful paramilitary for the hypothetical firefighter’s safety.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨64GB of DDR5 RAM now costs more than a MacBook Air - memory prices have surged 300% in just six months⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s truly mental. I don’t think I could afford to build my PC at the same spec today with RAM and SSD prices being what they are.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Google sent personal and financial information of student journalist to ICE⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Unlike Russia we have tools and if they do start disappearing people you’d be a fool not to booby trap your property. If they’re not following laws why should we?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Discord will require a face scan or ID for full access next month⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Never really used discord much but I’d rather use IRC anyway.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Mini LED is the way to go for longevity imo.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The TV industry finally concedes that the future may not be in 8K⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I’ve got a nice 4k mini LED tv with a 4k Blu-ray player and there’s plenty of excellent 4k content but it’s a niche market because most people aren’t using physical media for movies. 4k streaming is garbage compared to UHD Blu-ray.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨That time Apple sent everyone a U2 album: 'I DONT WANT YOU.'⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Would’ve been cool if it was a Ween album.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨The Rise Of Fake Casio Scientific Calculators⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m still rocking a ti89, only got to play around with the ti92 once. It had some cool programs back in the day. I can only imagine what the dev community is up to these days.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your opinions of using Pi-hole for DNS within a homelab environment?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Not at all. She knows how to use a browser and login credentials. It’s not like she’s gotta SSH into the thing with CLI.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are your opinions of using Pi-hole for DNS within a homelab environment?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My 65 yo mother can disable and enable the 2 piholes on her home network when she needs to and she’s not a techie. How are people so incompetent?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve: HDMI Forum Continues to Block HDMI 2.1 for Linux⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I believe it was only utilized by Gran Turismo 3 for connecting two systems to play against each other. Nobody else developed for it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Valve: HDMI Forum Continues to Block HDMI 2.1 for Linux⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Got a Firewire port on my PS2. The only thing I’ve ever owned with Firewire and I never even used it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨RAM is so expensive, Samsung won't even sell it to Samsung⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  No kidding! I postponed replacing my old Sandybridge in 2020 because of pandemic prices and then jumped on building my new rig in early 2024 when prices were the lowest I’d seen in some time. Also, grabbing a couple more sticks of 32 Gb DDR4 for my homelab this spring now seems like it was a good choice.
