Would you hangout with yourself? in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 11 points 23 hours ago (1 children)

I would hang out with myself and get a lot done. We'd code an app, make a podcast for antisocial people, and plant trees.

We'd agree to use the same encrypted messenger.

I've never been good at socializing and it just makes me exhausted.

What encrypted messenger do you use most that isn't Zucking Meta's Whatsapp and Signal?

How resilient I've proven to be. I feel like I've been held down all my life but I got a college degree and now I'm going back for another one. I owe a lot of it to new family members.

What are the career fields where you definitely don't need a LinkedIn? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Some might say that no one needs LinkedIn at all but there are some jobs that people struggle to attain so they get on LinkedIn. I have noticed though that I've mostly seen users who are in things like tech, marketing, business, and blue collar jobs on that platform. I didn't see many people on there who work in medical professions but it could have just been a tailored experience for me. Are there career fields where you wouldn't even think about making a LinkedIn?

Basically, my entire system is FOSS but I'm tempted to install the Spotify .deb package. Would that give Spotify access to info about my system?

Hi, I want to make memes but I want to use those funny characters for example in Linux memes. They are the ones where it looks like someone drew them by hand. Is there a website where I can find and download them? Thanks in advance

I'm on Debian 12 KDE and i need to update the clock to Arizona time but it's not available.

Honestly, it won't even let me change it to California time. After entering my password it denies my request.

Any suggestions? Thanks in advance

Edit Neither my user or root password works for this

Do cookies communicate IP address in any way? (sh.itjust.works)
 

For example, if:

  1. I'm on a tracking website like Linkedin
  2. I log out and close the browser
  3. I turn on the vpn and open the same browser
  4. I create a Spotify account

Is it possible that Spotify will give me targeted ads based on my home IP due to the cookies?

Thanks in advance

Does Windows virtual machine crash due to low RAM? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I installed Windows 11 in Virtual Box in case I need it for school but it keeps crashing. My laptop is 12gb RAM and I gave the VM 8gb RAM.

If I upgrade my laptop RAM to maybe 16gb and give the VM 12gb RAM would that help? Thanks I'm a newb

What's the dirt on Waterfox? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'm aware that it used to be owned by an ad company System1. But I found this post by the founder where he said that it's now an independent project.
