I’m surprised something like plaid even exists, i’d expect banks to cooperate with no one regarding customer data

Not every uni teaches stuff like how to study, fortunately one of them does and the lecture is on the Internet. I wish I had found this earlier. https://youtu.be/IlU-zDU6aQ0

I used another of the old HDDs sitting in my desktop, I don’t recall the brand / model

Now I have another backup

Desktop chrome only

My intel mac’s cpu (i5-5250U) throttles to maintain 105 C

This is exactly why I love duckduckgo’s AI results built in to search. It appears when it is relevant (and yes you can nuke it from orbit so it never ever appears) and it always gives citations (2 websites) so I can go check if it is right or not. Sometimes it works wonders when regular search results are not relevant. Sometimes it fails hard. I can distinguish one from the other because I can always check the sources.

people who install Windows on their Steam Deck?

I see this way too often, nearly half of the 2nd hand Decks sold here have Windows🤷‍♂️

https://manjarno.pages.dev/ Manjaro’s Pamac took AUR down twice, also their website had its SSL certs expire 4 times

Where I live Nvidia GPUs are insanely priced or nonexistent while AMD sans 9070 has decent prices, check AMD cards too.

Ubo prevents ad resources from being loaded, not loading / rendering ads at all makes a major difference in battery and bandwidth usage in my experience. Most notably bandwidth usage drops by %90 in most extreme cases.

GNOME Web if on Linux
