You can’t.

Social media is public, period.

If you want private social interactions then use end-to-end encrypted communication services.

Any oppressive regime will have multiple tools that can identify your access to social media services and determine who the human is behind the keyboard. Assume that everything you post on public social media has your real life name and address attached to it.

Unless you’re an expert and taking extreme measures (and you wouldn’t be asking this question if you were such an expert) then anonymous access to online services with respect to a sovereign power with an intelligence service is impossible.

I don’t know about you, but I use my RAM for a lot more than a browser.

I value my finite time more than I value a few Watt-Hours.

You could go to your local library and read through a bunch of books rather than using Google if you’re interested in more power savings ideas.

Any time anything has gone wrong with my PC, NVidia and their shitty drivers have been the culprit.

This seems unlikely. You’ve never had a hard drive failure, bad RAM, missing dependencies, malware or bugs in any other software except NVIDIA?

You must be one heck of a statistical outlier.

The joke is this, but updated with modern memes

I would recommend not installing beta drivers in that case.

I still have my great grandfather’s torches and pitchforks in the family armory, so I’m ready for the next stage also.

The Father -> Richard Stallman

The Son -> Linus Torvalds

The Holy Ghost -> GNU+Linux

The Holy Temple -> Arch Linux

Uhh, it’s GNU/Linux actually

Another tip: Be careful linking images from hosts that you don’t control.

You don’t want to come back and find your funny.gif picture is now displaying a goatse.

and also, because the OG situation:

KolourPaint doesn’t support layers, so when you paste something, put it into place and deselect it then it is written to the bitmap immediately.

Use GIMP if you need to use layers. Tons of YT videos on how to do it (ex: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=egyrVoXY7Ss )

Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed. This world in arms is not spending money alone.

It is spending the sweat of its laborers, the genius of its scientists, the hopes of its children.

The cost of one modern heavy bomber is this: a modern brick school in more than 30 cities.

It is two electric power plants, each serving a town of 60,000 population.

It is two fine, fully equipped hospitals. It is some 50 miles of concrete highway.

We pay for a single fighter plane with a half million bushels of wheat.

We pay for a single destroyer with new homes that could have housed more than 8,000 people.

This, I repeat, is the best way of life to be found on the road. the world has been taking.

This is not a way of life at all, in any true sense. Under the cloud of threatening war, it is humanity hanging from a cross of iron.

After discovering the robbery, the bank installed doors and locks.

The earth has enough microplastics.

I’ve heard that the best billionaires really love Greenland, just let them roam free in northern Greenland (wouldn’t want to annoy any actual Greenlanders). Don’t worry about them, these Masters of Industry will pull themselves up by their bootstraps and have a fire and shelter in no time.

I’m waiting for the Rust re-write.

We know that the chosen one is out there, they have yet to make themselves known.

A meme? Lying? I can’t believe it,

3/3/26 never forget

Primarily, there are a few EAC games that haven’t checked the ‘Linux allowed’ box yet.

They’re giving good advice but, in my opinion, they are using the reputation of Mullvad to ‘privacy-wash’ their public image by associating with a trusted brand.

WhatsApp is not a secure messaging service, your messages are not private. Being end to end encrypted doesn’t mean anything if both ends are compromised by having the app installed on them (or being vendor rooted).

I understand and agree with you.

Various companies go out of their way to make plugin-ins for the platform that everyone uses and everyone uses the platform because of the additional support that it receives on account of being the most popular.

Microsoft is the one that ultimately benefits by being able to make anti-consumer decisions because each individual decision by Microsoft isn’t as bad as the friction required to switch and learn to a new IDE. Microsoft can move the product in any direction that they want as long as they do it in steps tiny enough to not scare people away from their platform.

In the end we’re the frogs that they’re boiling, eventually you gotta jump out of the pot.
