I’m trying to expand my library of classic game/game-inspired music. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated. I’m including some music that I particularly enjoy for reference....
Crawl OST by Alex Yoder. All his other stuff is pretty good as well, but this one is my absolute favorite. Too bad he doesn’t release stuff very often.
“You will eat, by and by, in that glorious land in the sky, way up high. Work and pray; live on hay. You’ll get pie in the sky when you die! …That’s a lie…”
i don’t want to sound mean here, but the whole point of an invite system is that only relatively trusted people can get in. giving invites away to anyone asking for it would mostly defeat the point.
I’ve been seeing all these posts about Linux lately, and looking at them, I can honestly see the appeal. I’d love having so much autonomy over the OS I use, and customize it however I like, even having so many options to choose from when it comes to distros. The only thing holding me back, however, is incompatibility issues....
There are numerous ways to deal with it, depending on the specific application and use-case. For some, there’s an open-source alternative that, while not 100% similar in every aspect imaginable, does offer basically the same functionality (LibreOffice for MS Office Suite, Thunderbird for various email clients, Firefox or just Chromium for Google Chrome). For others, you can use an emulator (WINE, for example). For games specifically, Steam offers an emulator that works for most games (Proton); in fact, all the games I’ve tried worked. Then, there’s the very last option, which is using a virtual Windows machine within Linux. I mention it last because I honestly haven’t found many cases where I absolutely needed to do this, and because the set-up is rather “involved”, shall we say. But if you’re using Adobe Suite stuff then, yeah, you basically got no choice there.
Would you mind listing some of the essential programs that you use so we can get a better idea what your workflow is?
I am fully aware of what vpn services to use and not. I am not using Express VPN, I am simply doing research for a master thesis, when I came across these results from Express VPN. If you have any ideas or corrections, please let me know why a VPN provider would need to have access to these permissions....
not to discredit what they do and what’s been said, but i think it’s important to keep in mind (with one’s threat model in mind also) that they’re based in Sweden, a 14 eyes country.
basically an agreement between 14 countries to share signals intelligence amongst one another. effectively, if your data gets captured in Sweden, all the participating states are able to get their hands on it. check out the Wikipedia article for more details on 14 eyes: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Eyes#Fourteen_Eyes

How do y'all deal with programs not supported on Linux?
