Tossing in a suggestion for Vallum[0] here. It's not FOSS but very polished and a fraction of the cost of Little Snitch.

I've had two SSDs "die" over the years, both of them went read-only, but I was able to recover all data. SSD failure modes are weird.

Highly recommend downloading the .isos and playing them in mpv with deinterlacing. Lot of great native 60i footage in this doc.


We build bespoke servers installed at client properties to support our service. Since August, our unit cost has jumped from $3,500 to $5,500. It’s a bleak situation and will directly impact many businesses.


404 Media is a great place to start.

I think their bias shows primarily in which stories and topics they choose to cover. But it seems like they do a good job finding and reporting facts in the stories they do choose to cover.

It’s a good example of why people should seek out a broad mix of media sources. Pretty much every outlet is going to have a bias embodied in what they choose to cover.


I hesitate, because I don't disagree - They do find and report some very interesting information. They're not just "repeating" stuff others have found.

However, their interpretation of facts is the bias I'm referring to, and in almost all cases I've seen, their reporting has a very visible prejudice.


> and in almost all cases I've seen, their reporting has a very visible prejudice.

I would genuinely like to see some examples if you have any - I’m not necessarily taking a side either way, more curious.


Any evidence of that?

Do you expect people to do investigative journalism for free?


Correction: Only some articles are. I thought everything was. If that was the case then you wouldn't really know what you're subscribing to. That was my initial objection, but the site seems to follow the lwn.net model. Mb.


What’s wrong with that?


If anything it may be an improvement over ad driven models.


The qualify of reporting …


Yeah, a password manager/autofill would have set off some alarms and likely prevented this, because the browser autofill would have detected a mismatch for the domain npmjs.help.


Given my understanding of Debian, I don't believe this can be attributed to a "marketing strategy."


It probably evolved as such rather than being deliberately planned, but the end result is the same.


People have this strange concept that weed is supposed to make you see rainbows and stuff lol. I'd say your experience is about normal.


I've never heard about rainbows and stuff, at least not for weed. I've heard for some people it increases their depth perception to potentially painful levels, I've heard for some people it makes them feel like they can see with their eyes closed, I've heard for some people it makes daydreams more vivid/accessible, I've heard for some people it makes things feel/appear funnier than they actually are... but for me it's just some slight dissociation, which doesn't exactly manifest as a particularly interesting or impaired experience since I experience dissociation all the time just naturally (thanks to my dissociative disorder).


No that is not normal. Normal is noticing within a mini or two that your mind is significantly altered.


In my experience a lot of people are not great at telling when their mind is altered. Myself included at times.


I use both the Windows and macOS version almost daily (work vs home), and I'm happy to report that the macOS version is just as efficient as the Windows one when dealing with huge directories. I regularly have to deal with thousands of files at a time, and it just zips through them. One of my all-time favorite applications, no doubt.


I believe it's still used. Whenever I print anything (Sonoma 14.4) I have to allow connections for 'cupsd'.
