I totally agree with you, just yesterday I edited a document in Microsoft word and opened the second document for comparison. Suddenly, the first document froze and when I closed the program, I did not see the changes that I had made before. After complaining about my life, I started anew, and only the next time I downloaded Word offered me a recovery option.
It's not such a difficult task to set up hyprland. And niri doesn't even need to be configured, the default configuration performs all the required tasks.
From my understanding, to get something at the level of omarchy you need to setup multiple pieces of software. In the end it has to replace the whole "desktop"
Criticism is good when it comes with feasible suggestions or even a little help.
I wonder how many of HN audience does know someone, or a guy who knows a guy, which works in a data center able to manage the hardware and a simple email/message/hello there could open a new opportunity.
I tried to start using Reddit. None of my friends had ever heard of it or wanted to use it, and I soon lost interest in it.
From my little experience of using it, it seems that its main audience is the mentally retarded or just children under 11 years old.
The same questions are asked all the time. It wasn't difficult for me to find a search on the site for why they don't use it?
There is a lot of nonsense in the comments/answers, which they state with full confidence.
And there was also a feeling that there are rarely disagreements in discussions, even if there are minor differences, everyone adheres to a single line, often related to the topic/name of the subreddit.
I found several people creating content that I was interested in, but some of the posts on the page were hidden and it was easier to follow them on YouTube or blogs.
In general, searching for valuable posts or comments is like digging through manure to find gold.
And even if you find a clever idea or a good technical hint, it was often easier to find it just by reading the documentation. It's the same with interesting posts. If it's something worthwhile, then it will be on twitter, blog, YouTube, social networks or in some forums.
I'm not talking about advertising every second post, or even among the comments. Disabling ad blocking was a mistake.
> it's representative of an insular clubhouse with some small rooms in the backyard for 'normies.'
A very appropriate definition. It's not even interesting to discuss something on Reddit. If your opinion or thought coincides with the ideology of the subreddit, then you will have a lot of likes.
If it don't match, you get dislikes, insults, or worse, no response.
In general, I did not find any benefit for myself on Reddit and I am unlikely to return there, it is a waste of energy and effort.
For example, you can make it illegal to create ciphers longer than a certain value or not use the magic constants specified in the NSA specification in your algorithm.
An article with a paywall. There is nothing important in the free part, it is intentionally stretched, there is a lot of chatter and common words without any useful information.
> Sergei Glukhikh, 20, was arrested in September under a law that had come into force earlier that month, and which raised concerns about expanded surveillance and potential abuse by law enforcement.
The Moscow Times has the same relationship to Moscow as the RFA has to Chinese news.
This is a propaganda mouthpiece, thepurpose the purpose of which is to engage in cherrypicking, finding isolated cases and making a big deal out of a molehill.
If it's also going to be against Russia, it would be great.
>"found Glukhikh guilty and imposed a fine of 3,000 rubles ($38)."
"Glukhikh, who did not attend his sentencing hearing, has denied his guilt."
And also:
"FSB officer noticed Glukhikh searching for extremist content while riding next to him on the bus"
That is, an employee of the services saw a search for a banned organization engaged in the murder of Russians and the Russian-speaking population of Ukraine and reported it.
You must admit that this is not the same as just looking for information on Yandex.
And the parental comment refers specifically to the Yandex search, and not to isolated cases when an FSB agent suddenly stands behind you.
Keep in mind that millions of Russians search for information about VPN and the rest every day, openly discuss it on social networks and do not receive any punishment for it.
I'm sure you're experienced enough at using Yandex/Rambler/whatever to find other sources. What are those, btw? Соловьёв Live?
> You must admit that this is not the same as just looking for information on Yandex.
I must do no such thing. The other week I searched for the fascist Ivan Ilyin because I wanted to see what kind of ideas Putin built his ideology on. I've also read about the Russian Nazi paramilitary unit Rusich Group, responsible for the murder of Ukrainians. I've googled Maria Lvova-Belova, wanted by the International Criminal Court for kidnapping children. Do you think I should have been arrested for those?
I'm happy you guys can still search for VPNs, enjoy it while you can. Truly the pinnacle of democracy.
Yes, and? I'm perfectly fine with discussing it based on The Moscow Times article, it's the other commenter who disregarded it for being "against Russia" (I wish!). Since there are other sources that have reported on this, I suggested they search the runet for an officially-sanctioned outlet if that's what they prefer.
I did not ignore it, my comments are really based on the material of this article, I only pointed out that such a source is Russian news, in which RFA is Chinese news.
Unfortunately, from your next comment (you've collected a whole bingo there) I realized that I might have wasted my time on you.
This level of concern is corrected only if you want it yourself, no one from the outside can help you.
My statement that you can safely search for the necessary information on Yandex remains valid.
