(Quote) it's in his DNA!

(Quote) I'd also add - based on my experience of how stuff runs (vs how it used to be run) in my country: * No amount of regulation and "transparency" can make up for having bad, corrupt people. * Similarly, if people are decent and "…

(Quote) That policy was already established when I got the bucket & mop - and it is a good idea. My suggestion was to introduce firing squads and public executions of spammers, but that was discarded due to budget restraints and local legislati…

(Quote) Very often (though not always) that is the case. We generally tend to send PM notes before any more drastic measures - giving people the benefit of the doubt and the way to make things right. Sometimes "bad posts" are a result of …

(Quote) Yes. The idea is to achieve two things: * Keep a "written" proof for why any actions were taken (saving the infringing posts or spam causing a ban for example). * "Two heads are smarter than one" is a local saying - this…

(Quote) It is not "what" but "when." :)

(Quote) For what it’s worth - I don’t find your posts to be “problematic.” Good quality humour should be preserved.

(Quote) I wrote in some topic here about my speed experience. Let me "google" it. Here it is - found it (why I love forums :) ): https://lowendspirit.com/discussion/3735/hetzner-storage-box-speeds So, the speed is still not what I'd call …

(Quote) Thanks for taking the time to provide feedback - and confirm what worked for you. Regarding the mentioned cron emails - I don't think daily reports will be a problem with MXroute. As far as I know, cron-created mass-mailing lists are what t…

(Quote) German president, Franz Beckenbauer, and Ympker enter a bar in Berlin and order a beer each. Who ends up not paying anything? Ympker - 'cause he got a lifetime service. :)

For photos - iCloud is very practical for the not-tech-savvy users. For file storage - Hetzner Storage Box is pretty nice because it allows FTP and you have 0 worries about its maintenance and configuration. Depending on your budget and how many pe…

(Quote) I had grown fond of the abomination. :)

(Quote) I was referring to the (now apparently old and replaced) profile picture. Intended to be funny. My bad.

(Quote) I've heard Mint XFCE recommended for low-end hardware, but haven't had much luck with it when I tried it on a weak, old laptop. So, if it doesn't run Mint MATE, I'd go with Antix. Your experience may differ.

Where is the monkey?!

Antix runs OK on just about anything. :) https://www.instagram.com/stories/highlights/17865179405683715/

(Quote) You're from the last century, man! :) "I'm so old that the last time I had an original idea - it was the wheel!" :)
-
(Quote) For not gaming (or video editing & streaming for that matter) - AMD gives more bang for the buck IMO. Basically, at the cost of sounding old-fashioned, I'd look for an AMD graphics card with an AMD CPU, and Nvidia for an Intel CPU, gene…
-
(Quote) I'd argue that, with computer hardware, "future proofing" makes very little sense in terms of finances. Buy what you need for the job. Note that making some performance "headroom" as in not using 100% of available RAM or…

(Quote) RX 6600 (the non-XT version) is the least expensive I would dare to recommend. You could "risk" with a used RX 6500 and if it doesn't work well, sell it on (won't lose much money if you buy used).
-
I haven't tested any Nvidia cards on Linux. Currently, I'm happy with RX 6800 (Sapphire Nitro+ AMD card series are high quality, but bad idea if you don't get a reasonable price). But for text and watching videos (without editing them), AMD RX 6600…

Most people I know use smartphones, social networks, and payment cards (Visa, Mastercard etc.) - so not much use in trying to protect their privacy from my home network. The same goes for me since I started my websites and YouTube. Those few who r…

One does not simply get enough of @MichaelCee

Mailchimp seems to be really social. :)
-
(Quote) I'd argue that it isn't new. It's been out for over 10 years now. That's a lot of time in the IT world. When "Internet 1.0" and "2.0" came out, they both had some good use-cases immediately. Giving noticeable benefits to…

A4TECH V7M BLOODY - LOL. A pretentions name - with a red bloody hand print glowing. Hahah. But it's good - and was relatively cheap (under $30). Not sure where to buy it now. It's still available in Serbia. :) Software customization is crappy, so …

(Quote) To use an analogy in order to show the flaw in the "what if" logic of this and a few other posts: If people turned to custom hand built bicycle frames, the prices would skyrocket (from the existing high prices), and quality would g…
