I was just looking into this and saw this comment. I'm just using Xubuntu on an old laptop at the moment but this sort of thing is what I really want to go for so I might test it out when I get more time.

  • Disconnect from network
  • Factory reset
  • Use HDMI to plug into a device that actually respects your privacy and does what you want (Jellyfin, Plex, Pihole for even more goodness, and simply run other streaming services via privacy enhanced browser)
  • Enjoy life without enshittified asshole OS no one asked for by going back to a time that was better.

EDIT: I haven't tested this as of yet, but it seems like a decent option for converting and old PC (or if you have a RaspPi) into a media platform with comparable functionality: https://arcadian.cloud/pi/2023/04/27/easily-turn-your-raspberry-pi-into-a-smart-tv/

I've only ever met friendly fun rational folks with a passion for hockey who are warm, inviting and willing to fight for what's right. I'll put this sentiment out here: don't mistake kindness for weakness. Keep up the good work Canada.

I mean if the Stargate Project creates Skynet, that's one way to the kind of salvation folks preach about.

Should we tell them their family joined the protest?

So Ubisoft just sells malware now without the game wrapper. Great.

If near monopolies agree to rules sets with one another, they can effectively monopolize. That's why there are regulations in place to prevent that behavior but we're consistently seeing the lack of enforcement of those rules. Sure there are still other telecoms other than these two, but in the US each of the major telecoms are guilty of this sort of behavior, and while phone unlock is allowed they create unnecessary barriers to make it more difficult for consumers to do this, at the benefit of themselves. It's similar malicious compliance to providing an ability to cancel a subscription but making it difficult to do so for consumers so they give up trying.

Try to eat healthy and perform a minimal workout every day. Eat more fresh fruits or vegetables. It's quick to make a simple yogurt bowl with fruit and granola, or a salad with lean meat or chick peas. Start with a few push ups, crunches, reverse crunches, and at least a 30 minute walk. Small changes gradually will help you feel better with how you look and feel with a small time investment.

Near monopolies say monopolistic behavior is good for you and does not only benefit them. More bullshit at 11.
