What is even a good email provider to use anymore?
>inb4 selfhost your email
most info taken from: https://digdeeper.neocities.org/ghost/email.html
probably incomplete quick list, but you could read the dippity dopper article for more information

<gmail, yahoo, etc.
>big corpo trash
>sells data to 3rd party advertisers
<ProtonMail
>Shady metadata policy (retained for an indefinite amount of time)
>URLs in onion hidden service site point to the clearnet (information is from 2019, cannot reconfirm as the hidden service never loads as of the time writing this)
>Account creation verification blocks some email domains from being used to verify the account (Riseup and possibly cock.li domains for example)
>Doesn't allow usage of your own PGP keys and forces their private keys generated on their servers instead through a JS web interface, many backdoors
>Requires to use their stupid bridge thing for mail clients, possible backdoor
<Tutanota

I unironically used to use mail.ru before they locked me out of my account for not giving them my phone

I'm afraid of having issues if I use something else, as I've never tried anything else before.
Do websites experience any sort of compatibility issue if you try to create an account with an alternative e-mail provider?

I'm thinking of finally switching.

Some mailproviders are blacklisted, which is cancer, but shit like proton and tutanota works fine. It's honestly rare to run into the issue that websites flip their shit if you try to use a different e-mail. But you do sometimes see websites that want you to log into them with your google account and that's not something other mail providers can give you.

In the last few days there are more and more strange posts, at this point it can't even be a bot since bots learn from users. Did a eceleb advertise the webring on insta or something?

When you build a new PC or want to try a new distro (or any type of technology, really), what are some common things you do in order to get a feel for how it works?  I feel this topic is meaty enough to be worth its own thread, and I'd prefer for it not to be buried in the QTDDTOTT.

I've just finished building a PC to use as a Linux workstation, so now I can begin the time-honored tradition of distro hopping and bitching about how no single one has everything I want before ultimately settling on [distro you hate].  There is a decent volume of information about different distros out there, but most "reviews" are simply a feature list, a copy-paste from the distro's website, or a video of an installation.  They aren't very helpful for anyone who isn't a complete troglodyte, and I like to think I'm not that stupid.

I have a handful of things I want to do that will help simulate routine tasks, but so far they're all pretty basic:
>compile and run a simple C program
>install a new package with the package manager
>install a new programming language/SDK
>configure a chron job to clean up a folder every day
>ssh into a remote server and make changes to a file on it
>create a local git repo and push changes to a remote one

I follow the same few steps each time:

1. Look for any bloat I can find and get rid of it.
2. Install all of the crucial software for my personal usecase.
3. Customize the UI to my liking so it both looks and feels good to use.

If an OS lets me get rid of bloat, runs programs I need, and look/feel how I like, it's a win!

Why? There is lno reason not to own a computer. Buy a Thinkpad, those are like 200-300$. Go on craigslist, ebay, kikebook marketplace and you will find loads of cheap laptops and desktops. Go to goodwill or you local thrift store and look there. Don't tell you don't even have 200$ to spare? Fuck off right now and buy a computer.

NTA but a few people have genuinely completely replaced desktops and laptops in favor of smartphones and especially tablets. Depending on your usecases, there might not be a real need for a proper PC, and as a consequence iOS/iPadOS or Android are your the only OS you have available. Of course, often one might run into situations like these, where there's no mobile alternative.

Who gives a shit? there's always cool guys regardless of race and religion means fuck all as to a person's real values. it sucks no one really helped him. I have to assume half of his rants were him and the other half his schizophrenia. 
if not he would not have been so openly digging his own grave if not for his illness.

Judgement is reserved by ourselves  doing so to others is simply cruel because  you don't know their perspective.  those who you find to be troubled you should try to help instead of  ignoring and condemning because that's how you gain real friends that you can trust for life without having to be born next door.

My digital microscope arrived. It took some fiddling to get good resolution but it does work as advertised. In particular, the lens should be as close to the surface as possible (which in hindsight makes sense...).
The lens is obviously not centered properly though, which is annoying. I might try to fix it.

I probably should just buy an adapter board instead of trying to solder the chip manually.

I've been thinking about writing a blog. Nothing fancy. No private lives. No pictures. No product-shilling. Just writing words.

I tried Blogger and Wordpress and I had a bad experience with them, considering that the ToS became more restrictive over the years.
