Vercel isn’t an AI company it’s a web host.

These crawlers come from random people’s devices via shady apps. Each request comes from a different IP

Rust people seem to be focused mostly on identity politics and dividing people into groups that are then supposed to fight each other.

Yeah, this guy can eat my entire ass. This is the same language that fascists use to delegitimize anyone who isn’t straight and white.

Damn, if they had PII in a public bucket like that it’s criminally negligent. Well, at least it should be but I’m no lawyer

Yeah, I’ll probably switch eventually I’m just trying to talk myself out of it because I don’t have the time to learn right now

I have a desktop, laptop, and a few VMs and servery things. Dotfile manager (yadm, which is a git wrapper) to sync personal settings, everything else I just do manually. The system-level configs are either different enough that standardizing them isn’t very helpful, or no more complicated than installing packages and activating services.

I like the idea of nixos, but I feel like it makes a bunch of daily sacrifices in order to optimize a task I do once every few years? I hardly ever get a new computer, but I install/uninstall/update/tweak packages on my system all the time. With a dotfile manager and snapshots, I get most of the benefit without any of the drawbacks.

The desktop environment is all the stuff like the taskbar, the settings menus, the application launcher, the login screen, that kind of thing. It’s the system level user interface.

You choose which one by which distro you download. Linux mint uses cinnamon, Ubuntu and fedora use gnome. There are “flavors” of Ubuntu and fedora that use KDE. That’s why I suggested ventoy: you can download a few different ones and boot into them without making a new thumb drive.

If you don’t feel like bothering with any of that, just use Linux mint. It’s good.

• before you switch, sort out your apps. Look at what you use on windows, see if it runs on Linux. If not, find a replacement that does and test it out.
• Most Linux distros can boot into a desktop from a thumb drive. You can play and test without touching your windows installation.
• in that vein, ventoy is neat. You can make a bootable drive and drop ISOs in a folder to boot from. No messing with etcher or whatever it’s called
• desktop environment matters as much as the distro. Check out gnome, KDE, and cinnamon.

Yeah, when someone is interested in switching I always advise them to sort out their apps first. Many Linux applications also run on windows, the reverse is rarely true.

That’s a lot of the reason you buy it, but RHEL is a paid product that you buy copies of.

You haven’t heard of red hat? Or Ubuntu pro?

Yes, “it’s us or the porn”, yes this will go well for the republicans, yes. Then they can start on alcohol and gambling

Shout out to nushell for building an entire shell around this idea!

Hoły hell thank you, my 7900xtx was doing this and I hadn’t noticed

That sounds harder than just using query parameters. What are the benefits?

But what if you have multiple optional parameters?

They have pretty different use cases. Localstorage is for when you want persistence across page loads, not necessarily specific to any particular page but specific to a browser. An example would be storing user-selected light or dark mode.

Query parameters are specific to a page/URL and you get a lot of things for free when you use them:

• back/forward navigation
• bookmarking
• copy-paste to share
• page level caching
• access on both server and client

Query parameters are good for things like searches, filters, sorting, etc
