Dang. You’re right.

Internet says an average adult breaths 12 - 20 time per minute. Assuming 20 breaths per minute, that comes out to $1,440 dollars per day($0.05 × 20 breaths × 60 minutes × 24 hours)

If you’re dedicated, you can walk 20,000 steps in a day. It’s not easy, but it’s achievable. This would yield $5,000 per day.

For perspective, if you were smart and chose the $5,000 per day, it would take you 547 years to earn your first billion and 131,416 years to have as much money as Jeff Bezos.

Edit: I lost some decimals. I fixed the calculations

Muck and sludge mean the same thing but with a stronger negative connotation. Slop usually refers to food, but it is also applicable in this situation.

I very much appreciate the correct use of POV.

It might be Mint or an issue with your laptop. I’ve been using Arch for a while and haven’t had major performance issues. Before I used Arch, I used Pop!OS and didn’t have any issues either. What are your laptop specs? Have you already looked into Nvidia Optimus? Have you tried other distros?

Checkout Quad9 and NextDNS. I use NextDNS. The free tier NextDNS account is more than ample; I’ve never come close to exceeding it.

That was my issue. Thank you very much!

Thank You! I changed the port settings and used the “d” flag and it’s working.

Password manager like Bitwarden. I’d rather they take care of it for me. The consequences would be too great if I messed it up.

The project would only allow “verified” web browsers. This means that the only web browsers you can use are the ones that Google has allowed: owned by big companies. It would prevent smaller, privacy friendly web browsers from being a part of the internet.

Ferb, I know what we’re gonna do today.

Where is the data stored? Is it encrypted at rest?

There really is a relevant XKCD for everything. I’m literally touring my local college next week.

Sock stocks! What a splendid idea!

How did you do in your second week?

Thanks for the advice! I’ll make sure to look into it.

It’s a balance between convenience against privacy and security. The more private and secure you become, the more inconvenient. If something is too inconvenient, people will just work around it: writing passwords on a sticky note because the requirements were too high. It’s impossible to strike the perfect balance. Threat modeling is important. Threat modeling is where you determine what is OK and what isn’t. I have an Instagram account because my girlfriend likes to send me funny videos. I only use it to watch what she sends me, and I have it isolated from the rest of my apps. I could delete it, but my threat model allows it.

Side note: anything cryptography and computing is basically magic.

Unfortunate and informative. Time to look into CalyxOS.
