Ripgrep (rg) instead of grep or ack. Stupid fast.

yt-dlp since I don't see it mentioned.

Drop tmux and use zellij (if you are scared of tmux, zellij is easier to learn IMO).

I'm not quite sure why I keep seeing this news in various forms, yet Flathub gets fair crypto wallets and that only shows up on my feed once.

The company said its IT complied with industry standards and it had taken out insurance against cyber-attack.

Backups and the 3-2-1 strategy have been industry standard for decades. What a load of crap.

I acknowledge that, this is the result of unbridled capitalism.

When a person uses social engineering and manipulation to extract money from an individual or company it's called fraud, when a large enough company does it it's just business.

If only our government could give us some handy dandy consumer protection laws.

Of course it's an Israeli firm that is enabling this greedy behavior. They already price gouge as it is. Can't we go back to the formula of "our cost + our profit margin adjusted for market". This bleeding the customer dry bullshit should stick in bullshit avoidable video game micro transactions.

Keep in mind their claims about Android have been clearly refuted and their claims in general are dubious.

Given this, they're either dangerously ignorant or intentionally malicious.

It's pretty relevant to hosting providers, especially VPS providers. But if you have an AMD processor in your home PC / laptop, not really relevant to you.

I went with the open source one. Slightly more expensive, but had I wanted to I could have bought all the parts and assembled it myself, compiled the firmware, etc.

If a device relies on any kind of external service to initially set up or function thereafter, do not buy. Regardless of brand.

This is what I strive for. When I was looking for a wall charger for my EV I was shocked at how there was only one option that wasn't "cloud" based. And those aren't cheap.
