I was wondering how real this statement, so I did the napkin math:
The average american salary is just shy of 60k[1]. If we follow a 50/30/20 budget[2], 20% goes into savings, so 12k. Assuming that the savings of an average person is roughly similar to a company's revenue, we get 36.46B / 12k ~= 3 million times more revenue per year
So this 1.2B fine is equivalent to: 1.2B / 3M = 467$ for an average American
(I repeat, this is napkin math, but I think it still shows how small the fine is)

Maybe i missed something with the curing, but I think that the whole joke is that smoked salmon is good, and I can get behind that food take 😋
You could try EndeavourOS, it's based off Arch, so 99% of the Arch wiki can be directly applied to your system, and the installation process is much more normal with a GUI and a selection of Desktop Environment to choose from.
The hardest part with Arch is getting the initial setup working imo, so you can put a few more hours trying to install it (if you're ready to bear the frustration that might come with it) or pick a distro like EndeavourOS with a GUI installer to get a working system quicker.
Gitlab-runner exec and act are great tools, but this goes out of the window as soon as the cloud hosting service is a little less intelligent (looking at you, azure DevOps, who removed the hack that let pipeline run locally in 2019)
Tbf I'm really not savvy in loans, but I mean any amount of money X that you have to pay back with Y% of interest in Z days. If you take that loan and you know an investment that will guarantee you (Y+1)% then you should borrow money. (That conclusion is of course completely neglecting risk management)
Depends on the point of view. If your biggest risk is you spending that loan money on gambling, then yes paying the debt early would help you get in less trouble.
From an economic point of view, if you don't need that money at the moment, you should invest it, so that you can make a few bucks. If you get 1-2% more on every transaction that way, it really does stack up at the end, since this will make you exponentially more money.
If Apple users could read, they would be mad!
Someday? Canada is already trying to ban the Flipper Zero, we're living in your nightmare.
Cool, I will be able to solve those advent of code challenges without optimising my code!
I wasn't a huge fan of manpages either until I got a kernel class at uni. The man pages for syscalls and library calls are super well made.
Why is Obsidian on the list?? How is a closed source electron app for editing markdown files a good cybersecurity tool/privacy respecting? I could use nano to do the same job with much more confidence for my privacy.
Ok, lemme say the line... NEEEEERRRRDD
(btw what's that math syntax, that doesn't look like latex equation mode)
Just... Don't use edge altogether? There are so many browsers with better privacy (librewolf, brave, ungoogled chromium, etc). Any reasons why you want to stick to edge so badly?
Welp I'm of those "windows" users then 😉
Probably if your country judges illegal to connect to the tor network, but not on a VPN. Iirc, a bridge could also hide the fact that you're connecting to the tor network tho
I can confirm, I'm running Android 13, and whenever I remove notifications permissions to the pebble app, it somehow gets them back by itself and I have that annoyed "connecting" notification opened all the time 🤡
