  • I have been using a t450 for the past 5 years as my only pc. For about 4 years I used Arch without any major issues, but my “optimizations” became too much to maintan. For the past year I’ve been using Kinoite and it’s brilliant.

    Everything runs good enough out of the box and in my daily use I haven’t noticed that I’m running a 9 year old machine. I even play games that should have no business running on that crusty old thing. Also, the stability is divine.









  • Absolutely valid points and I get your choice. Used to hop browsers for about a decade before I settled on firefox, not because of the privacy aspect, it just felt cozy. I guess I’m getting old, I can’t really tell the difference between performance anymore, all browsers feel fast enough. Honestly, didn’t even think speed would be a concern.

    …and I’m sure firefox would be a lot less glitchy if I didn’t insist breaking every single page with noscript. Now, where’d I put my tinfoil hat





  • I’ve been using it for a few years now and by now picking out the scripts for site navigation and finding the relavant cdn is pretty much automatic now. If I find a site that is just an absolute js clusterfuck, I just run it in porno mode and let the scrips loose and hope for the best until I find what I went there for. I even take the time to reject cookies manually as per my right, haha. Maybe it will show up on some stat somewhere, a flaccid message, but a message none the less.

    What did you think of the recent deal the EU made with the giants? As an EU citizen I find it concerning, because it might be a slippery slope.
