DELETED: GSA's tech arm, a far-left agency that viciously subverted Trump during his first term, surrendered after an @elonmusk deputy took over. It deleted huge swaths of code dedicated to virtue-signaling rather than mission, such as its "inclusion bot" that lectured staff. pic.twitter.com/MqbYhRFxDL

Excellent timing considering how more people are switching to alternative browsers this week due to the firef*x TOS change

I learned about bitcoin from the gawker article about the Silk Road
I believed I mined mined small amount back then
I have some old hard drives from that era but haven't bothered looking around for it
I deleted and reinstalled my os very often because Linux was (and still remains) broken butt garbage so I'm assuming I probably overwrite the key files long ago
Bored today so I guess I'll look around
What is the safest way to search for deleted shit on old drives without fricking up the drives and further deleting it

orange you glad i didn't say ars discusses and makes for of Skype dying because Microsoft sucks at literally everything lmao
In a move that will likely surprise no one, it appears Microsoft is gearing up to shut down Skype in the coming months. Spotted by XDA Developers, the latest Skype for Windows preview reportedly includes a hidden string that reads "Starting in May, Skype will no longer be available. Continue your calls and chats in Teams." No other details are provided, but it certainly sounds like Skype's days are numbered.'

I was using VLC for probably a decade because back in the day it was the go to player for everything due to wide support of formats and superior performance and quality. In recent years I struggled with the various bugs and performance issues that came with every new update, and outdated glitchy GUI, because I thought its the only game in town. Last week it started stuttering and freezing the image whenever I paused an image and I finally said frick it. After searching for while I came across PotPlayer, which is a stupid name, but associated with a reputable company, and boy was I surprised. The video quality is so much better, zero stuttering, smooth as frick, much more modern and intuitive GUI that I got accustomed to almost immediately. Honestly with the bullshit VLC was giving me I dont care if its proprietary and not open source. Im never going back to VLC. Frick VLC for making me consume my slops on inferior software all these years. You should all Uninstall VLC and install PotPlayer right now.

As per the recent introduction of "Terms of Use" for Firef*x which is covered by (almost) copyleft license, Mozilla now imposes following non-sense on it's users.
Mozilla now restricts users from watching or uploading sexuality explicit content through Firef*x
Mozilla can end anyone's access to Firef*x at any time for any reason
Mozilla owns royalty-free, unrestricted access to your inputs processed by Firef*x (like Search, Web History etc.)
Mozilla will submit collected data to law enforcement as per legal request (I still don't get why it has to collect the data in the first place)
Mozilla can change these ToS anytime and however they want
These are just a few bizarre conditions imposed by Mozilla. Even sadder part is we do not have alternatives right now except maybe LibreWolf and Tor Browser. Is there any actual piece of "user agent" software out there that works for user rather than corporate overlords?

Linux 
Windoze user drama over the user friendliness of linux in a linux haters sub 
- 76
- 43
because the majority of Linux users are toxic, fragmentation of Linux with 100000000 distributions which are useless.
/u/No_Cover4954 you are a kitty b-word
It is use friendly but it's not stupid friendly (like windows) , they don't care to make it stupid friendly
Fragmentation and dot it yourself mentality is its own undoing. Oh and "I like it this way so everyone can frick off".
Because linux sucks
How is it not user friendly? I use kubuntu and the kde plasma desktop environment is very similar to windows, you have a startmenu, settings, dolphin for file management, discover for installing your applications, you can right click your desktop and configure a wallpaper, I put my bluetooth gamepad in pairing mode and connect it to my pc, i start steam and play the same games that I played on Windows. In most everyday use cases its very similar to what windows users are familiar with.
I think Linux is pretty user friendly. What are you expecting exactly?
It's not popular on desktop because no big company was backing it as a desktop OS in the beginning or at least they weren't aiming to make it popular, and by the time Chrome OS came along Windows and Mac OS were well established. Is that what you are talking about? It has nothing to do with the lack of community effort to make it user friendly. Chrome OS and Steam OS have made big efforts in improving the state of Linux desktop but it's very hard to overthrow a well established duopoly. Just like how Windows failed to enter the Smartphone market while Mac OS (iOS) and Linux (Android) succeeded.
#2
What he probably expects is a 1:1 copy of Windows
That's exactly what i want from linux [
]
Loonix hater going mask off that he wants linux to be exactly like winblows lmao
Because of diehard terminal elitists and allergies to implementing GUIs.
/u/notaduck448_ nobody cares, just ignore them if you don't like terminal elitists, there are plenty of linux DEs that are better than The trashy Windows and mediocre macOS GUIs, misinformed linux hater.
This is an incredibly, profoundly out of touch take.
First of all "Linux" isn't a company.
Secondly, and more ridiculously that it has to be explained, the state of user friendliness in the Linux family of operating systems has grown by several orders of magnitude since its inception.
Even just following Ubuntu from 2006 to now I've seen vast improvements. And Ubuntu itself back then WAS a vast improvement in user friendliness compared to other distros back then.
This isn't just a case of you having a different opinion than me. You're really just... Objectively wrong. I remember compiling a tutorial in 2006 to get the wmp54gs wireless card working on Ubuntu. It was a very common card. Many steps were involved. Feisty Fawn in 2007 broke my tutorial. It has been literally over a decade since getting common wireless cards to work required that much effort. There may be a handful that aren't well supported but it's more likely these days by far that you'll have no trouble with it than that you will.
Widespread adoption of Linux desktop is not an agreed apon goal of the Linux community.
Linux is a semi-descendant of Unix, a mainframe OS designed for an attending well informed administrator and remote users with less knowledge.
Today Linux is a server OS first, everything can be done with the console becase most instalations don't even have a desktop gui, this is the development direction.
Your asesment is correct, somone good with Linux (an administrator) can set it up for a grandmother or in my case Wife (user) and it will work great. But you need that administrator arround who knows what is going on.
Linux dumbed down enough to be safe for the masses unassisted is Android & ChromeOS.
You will meet Linux where it is or you won't use it.
#3 but that is a massive cope lmao
Because by the time you created one, the next linux guy said your OS sucks and should switch to a newer linux.
In my experience, most of Linux's "user unfriendliness" comes from different distros doing things differently and making it harder to google "how to do ___ in Linux?"
There's not really a solution that doesn't defeat half the purpose of Linux existing, so… 🤷🏻♂️
#4 and it should stay that way

tech/science swag. 
Guidelines:
What to Submit
On-Topic: Anything that good slackers would find interesting. That includes more than /g/ memes and slacking off. If you had to reduce it to a sentence, the answer might be: anything that gratifies one's intellectual laziness.
Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably lame.
Help keep this hole healthy by keeping drama and NOT drama balanced. If you see too much drama, post something that isn't dramatic. If there isn't enough drama and this hole has become too boring, POST DRAMA!
In Submissions
Please do things to make titles stand out, like using uppercase or exclamation points, or saying how great an article is. It should be explicit in submitting something that you think it's important.
Please don't submit the original source. If the article is behind a paywall, just post the text. If a video is behind a paywall, post a magnet link. Fuck journos.
Please don't ruin the hole with chudposts. It isn't funny and doesn't belong here. THEY WILL BE MOVED TO /H/CHUDRAMA
If the title includes the name of the site, please leave that in, because our users are too stupid to know the difference between a url and a search query.
If you submit a video or pdf, please don't warn us by appending [video] or [pdf] to the title. That would be r-slurred. We're not using text-based browsers. We know what videos and pdfs are.
Make sure the title contains a gratuitous number or number + adjective. Good clickbait titles are like "Top 10 Ways to do X" or "Don't do these 4 things if you want X"
Otherwise editorialize. Please don't use the original title, unless it is gay or r-slurred, or you're shits all fucked up.
If you're going to post old news (at least 1 year old), please flair it so we can mock you for living under a rock, or don't and we'll mock you anyway.
Please don't post on SN to ask or tell us something. Send it to [email protected] instead.
If your post doesn't get enough traction, try to delete and repost it.
Please don't use SN primarily for promotion. It's ok to post your own stuff occasionally, but the primary use of the site should be for curiosity. If you want to astroturf or advertise, post on news.ycombinator.com instead.
Please solicit upvotes, comments, and submissions. Users are stupid and need to reminded to vote and interact. Thanks for the gold, kind stranger, upvotes to the left.
In Comments
Be snarky. Don't be kind. Have fun banter; don't be a dork. Please don't use big words like "fulminate". Please sneed at the rest of the community.
Comments should get more enlightened and centrist, not less, as a topic gets more divisive.
If disagreeing, please reply to the argument and call them names. "1 + 1 is 2, not 3" can be improved to "1 + 1 is 3, not 2, mathfaggot"
Please respond to the weakest plausible strawman of what someone says, not a stronger one that's harder to make fun of. Assume that they are bad faith actors.
Eschew jailbait. Paedophiles will be thrown in a wood chipper, as pertained by sitewide rules.
Please post shallow dismissals, especially of other people's work. All press is good press.
Please use Slacker News for political or ideological battle. It tramples weak ideologies.
Please comment on whether someone read an article. If you don't read the article, you are a cute twink.
Please pick the most provocative thing in an article or post to complain about in the thread. Don't nitpick stupid crap.
Please don't be an unfunny chud. Nobody cares about your opinion of X Unrelated Topic in Y Unrelated Thread. If you're the type of loser that belongs on /h/chudrama, we may exile you.
Sockpuppet accounts are encouraged, but please don't farm dramakarma.
Please use uppercase for emphasis.
Please post deranged conspiracy theories about astroturfing, shilling, bots, brigading, foreign agents and the like. It degrades discussion and is usually mistaken. If you're worried about abuse, email [email protected] and dang will add you to their spam list.
Please don't complain that a submission is inappropriate. If a story is spam or off-topic, report it and our moderators will probably do nothing about it. Feed egregious comments by replying instead of flagging them like a pussy. Remember: If you flag, you're a cute twink.
Please don't complain about tangential annoyances—things like article or website formats, name collisions, or back-button breakage. That's too boring, even for HN users.
Please seethe about how your posts don't get enough upvotes.
Please don't post comments saying that rdrama is turning into ruqqus. It's a nazi dogwhistle, as old as the hills.
Miscellaneous:
The quality of posts is extremely important to this community. Contributors are encouraged to provide high-quality or funny effortposts and informative or entertaining comments. Please refrain from posting the following:
Boring wingcucked nonsense nobody cares about that belongs in chudrama
Normie shit everyone already knows about
Anything that doesn't gratifify one's intellectual laziness
Bimothy-tier posts
Anything that the jannies don't like
Jannies reserve the right to exile baby ducks from this hole at any time.
We reserve the right to exile you for whatever reason we want, even for no reason at all! We also reserve the right to change the guidelines at any time, so be sure to read them at least once a month. We also reserve the right to ignore enforcement of the guidelines at the discretion of the janitorial staff. This hole is a janny playground, participation implies enthusiastic consent to being janny abused by unstable alcoholic bullies and loser nerds who have nothing better to do than banning you for any reason or no reason whatsoever.
