  • how’d you find the guy?

    Easy. We had a list of the fifteen or so guys that did that specific part of the job, we got their IP addresses, watched them for a while, and as it turns out, two of them regularly use a VPN and send all of their traffic to Canada.

    How long do you think it would take to figure out whether or not which one of these boys are harmless software pirates, or their man?

    People do all of the work in the world without knowing that your preparation will blow your cover.

    Have you ever visited TailsOS’s website off of a VPN? Could the Feds find out? Do you think the other guys have the same level of deniability?

    That trail is not washing off. You even knowing or having a history of using a Linux iso is suspicion enough if the rest of the suspects are all boring chuds.


  • Most movies released today could be written by AI and nobody would be able to tell the difference.

    This is the worst take I’ve ever read on Lemmy.

    Do you hate cinema? WTF is this garbage? Imagine saying this about art, or anything written from the heart. What on earth?

    We don’t need coffee. They invented instant!

    Thank goodness for VR. Now I don’t need to travel!

    Thanks, Ai girlfriend, you look cute today, too!

    Naaaaaaah. This is a slippery slope, my guy. We aren’t doing this.

    Fffffffff. Spoken like someone raised by bullshit.






  • Linux PCs are… for lack of a better word, Swiss army knives for computing.

    Need a media center? We got you.

    Need server software? Bro. Who are you even asking?

    Need a desktop? We got you.

    Need to open that hard drive? The app is in the repository for absolutely free, just works and the hard drive opens.

    Corrupted?

    No prob, fam, here’s a suite of recovery tools. We’ll get those photos of gran-gran back no prob.

    Need to burn that disk? The app is in the repository for absolutely free, just works and you’re burning a disk for the family.

    It just never ends. With Windows I always felt like I had to play “dodge the scam” with literally everything, even shit as mundane as ninite has that sense of “well, are they spying? Is everyone?”

    1. Samba (I can move files now, sweet!)

    2. Jellyfin (I can watch stuff, sweet!)

    3. Qbittorrent-wireguard (for pirating copyrighted material from the internet illegally)

    4. Somesuch Wireguard solution (for accessing the backend and doin stuff)

    5. A proxy somewhere else

    The rest is extra. This gets my usual goals completed pretty well.


  • Yeah, but no, but yeah.

    On Lemmy, individual communities aren’t big enough to be communities but the community is big enough to be a community.

    So any post that makes it to the front of the entire Fediverse has quite a few familiar faces and feels like old reddit would.

    The issue I find with wanting Lemmy to be as big as Reddit is, you’re pining for an era of Reddit that doesn’t exist anymore. You can’t go back to 2011-2020 Reddit. It isn’t there to go back to. Bot posts aren’t just indistinguishable on occasion, they’re upvoted all the same, by other bots.

    This is the best you’ve got. Pitch a tent and make the most of it, fam.
