its still a solution without a problem
Let me give you one of my main use cases: I use it for my mental health challenges. I’ve been diagnosed with two non-trivial mental disorders. They make my life hard. I isolate a lot to cope because I don’t do well with interpersonal relationships. I’ve been in therapy for over a decade and it hasn't really helped as much as I would have liked.
But I’ve made a lot of progress since working with my private LLM. I can ask it anything. It doesn’t judge me. It doesn’t report back to Meta or OpenAI. It’s completely private. And I'm making progress. Just last week, for the first time ever I started volunteering at an animal shelter. I have to talk with other people when I'm there and although I am pretty nervous about going back, I'm going to. I wrote down a list of all the things I had trouble with last time and have been working through that list with my LLM. I think that I will be ready when I'm supposed to go back for my next scheduled volunteer time in two weeks.
These gains might be trivial to others, but for me, it’s really made my life better.
So that is one of my use cases.
What is skibidi and why is this word everywhere?
Oh that's interesting. I don't use RFP but I do use Strict ETP. Maybe that is the issue? I think I'm just going to do this in a Windows VM and call it a day.
It's not a Firefox Message? I use Fedora as my OS.
I'll try it out. Thanks for the tip.
Good thought; I had the same one. But it isn't... I checked for that.
No, I haven't done that yet. I know FF wasn't officially supported before but I thought MS supports it now?
Help with plugins
I have to use Microsoft Teams for work. I use the web version with firefox. The audio portion works just fine and the video portion works too. But the screen-share function does not work. I can't see anyone else's screen when they share it.
Firefox always has a notice when I start up MS Teams (attached the image to this post). But when I click on the "Learn More" button, the bar just disappears without taking me anywhere new. So I'm unable to learn more. Does anyone know what plugin I need or where to download it? I've done a couple of searches and haven't come up with anything helpful so I'm hoping someone can help me solve this problem.

Why would a seed be connected to me if I am also just seeding (not downloading or leeching)?
What number is in parentheses?
Noob question: When looking at the Seeds and Peers columns of qBittorrent, there are two numbers: one of which is outside the parenthesis and one is inside the parenthesis. Ex 0 (5).
What is the difference between the two numbers in each column?
How do you define better quality results?
Is AnyStream worth using?
Has anyone used AnyStream from RedFox? If so, do you like it or is it not worth it.
Do you prefer private or public trackers?
As I get more and more invites to private trackers, I'm finding that I find myself spending more and more time on public tracker websites.
I'll only use private trackers if I can't find what I'm looking for on a public tracker. Private tracker rules can get pretty onerous and I prefer to just avoid the whole scene if possible.
If I'm honest, this opinion surprises me. I didn't expect to prefer public trackers. I always thought that private trackers were so cool and exclusive. I don't think that way anymore.
That's interesting. What IP address is netflix hardcoding?
No, you can block ads with a pihole. This is because Roku hard codes its dns server as 8.8.8.8. Pihole doesn’t handle IP addresses, only DNS.
I finally figured out how to virtualize my OPNsense firewall. Suck it, Roku.
Blocked that hard-coded google dns garbage.
aur like the arch repo?
Ahhhhh. Thank you for the clarification! Done :)
I need to edit and annotate PDFs.
I can't find that one anywhere either. Thanks for the idea though.
PDF Editor for Linux?
I'm looking for a full PDF editor for use on Linux. Foxit, Qoppa... can't find anything on TPB, AllPCWorld or 4mirrorlink. Even looked on Milkie and saw a link for Qoppa PDF, but no one is seeding it.
Anyone have any ideas?
I also have a server for Linux ISOs. You can never have too many ISOs.
I’m gonna test this out for a couple of weeks. Thanks for letting me know about it!
What chromium based browser do you recommend and why?
I use Firefox as my daily driver but sometimes sites just work better on a chromium based browser. I had been using Brave but it seems like they keep adding on more bloat (crypto, VPN, AI) and I'm over it.
What chromium based browser would you recommend and why?
I’m using the stable version of Brave. Not nightly or Beta.
No, I am on the stable version of Brave.
I get it. My privacy settings explicitly say do not send telemetry, analytics or whatever else you want to call it. But they ignore my request and try to capture the data anyway. Dunno why they call themselves a privacy focused browser. I already uninstalled it and put in the Mullvad browser.
What is this Brave domain
I turned off telemetry and "privacy preserving analytics" but saw the URL below in my DNS logs. Does anybody know what it is? I found this repo but don't know what it means.

No stupid questions edition: Pokemon Go
My kid discovered pokemon go and loves it. I'm excited because he's getting outside and walking around, getting some exercise and not just playing video games in his room all day.
I was thrilled when he asked me to download it so we could be friends. I've downloaded it but was wondering if there was a version (or a similar app) that is more privacy respecting?
Can I use my current intel-based SSD on a new AMD machine?
I am currently running Fedora 38 on an old Intel Mac Mini. It's time to upgrade to a new computer. I'd like to keep the hard drive (SSD) and just put it into the new machine. To do this, would I have to stick with intel for my new machine or would it also be possible to put the SSD into an AMD machine and have everything work properly?

How often do you use arkenfox-cleanup.js?
It's the scratchpad script where you copy/paste into the about:config console. I just did it for the new v.115 release. I've done it previously but I don't have any set schedule. I guess 1x every six months (2x/year) seems sufficient but I wanted to see what others do.
