vsis, to lemmyshitpost in It would have to be a VERY lazy dog to allow a fox to jump over it anyway.

there is no F in sphinx of black quartz, judge my vow.

I wonder if it have a vegan option.

vsis, to linux in What happens when Linus dies/retires?
@vsis@feddit.cl avatar

We will switch to GNU/Hurd.

Then we will plug a USB device and remember that Hurd doesn’t support that yet.

vsis, to linux in Fedora or Mint for noob?
@vsis@feddit.cl avatar

I recommend Mint.

Chances are your friend’s secondary laptop doesn’t have extra resources for Gnome to run smoothly. Sad thing is nowadays Gnome is very heavy and bloated.

Also, he may try both distros live-usb. Maybe he don’t care about Mint looking outdated. But if he does, you may try Fedora live-usb and check if university wifi works properly.

It’s his laptop after all, so I believe your appreciations on the beauty of desktop environments are secondary.

vsis, to memes in and where did that bring you?

I grow tomatoes in my balcony. Constructive and fulfilling activity, love it.

But I can’t imagine eating like 15 tomatoes per year lol

1password employees don’t have access to the data let alone anyone else.

That’s a common good practice.

It’s still good idea to assume the opposite.

If you can see plain text passwords, some malicious actor at their side can too. No matter if it’s encrypted at rest.

I’m unaware of 1password ever getting hacked.

I think your paranoia here is unjustified

You are right in a way. I always assume company sysadmins have access to company data, even if they say the opposite, and I always assume there are undisclosed data leaks. Which may seem a little paranoid.

It’s like closing your car’s door when leaving it alone: Is it paranoid to assume that always there are someone willing to steal stuff?

There are libre off-line password managers. Variants of Keepass for example.

Indeed it’s a bad idea to store passwords in a propietary system. Specially a cloud based one being hacked time to time, like 1password.

I use an off-line libre password manager for several bad designed goverment stuff that only accept numbers as passwords or don’t allow to paste it.

It’s not that hard and I easily get used to it. I read it, type it and forget it again.

vsis, to piracy in When your country don't give a sH1t about piracy
@vsis@feddit.cl avatar

In Chile I recall Microsoft sending a notification to my former worplace because someone used torrent to download a game from inside the company network. That person didn’t notice that all traffic was being routed to company’s VPN hosted in MS Azure.

ISPs don’t give a shit. The goverment has laws against piracy that are never applied (you know: Southamerica, the lawlessness). But gringo companies do care.

My advice is to avoid Google, MS and the big tech to follow your pirates activities. They may suspend services to you, or notifiy some local authority.

Use a different browser or machine for your big tech interactions, and you’ll be fine.

Edit: typos.

vsis, to linux in My little brother loves the dualboot setup I installed for him. He says "It's like iOS"
@vsis@feddit.cl avatar

haha I thought exactly the same thing lol He’s linuxplained why his distro is better. That’s the spirit.
