I was sucked up big time by Project Hail Mary, the Children of Time series is nice too, currently reading the third book, had to stop reading Hyperion because Sol Weintraub's story made me cry uncontrollably (as a father), A Canticle for Leibowitz is nice, highly recommend The Swarm by Frank Schatzing, seems kinda boring, but it was highly captivating read for me, highly accurate fact wise and the main premise is a very interesting idea

yeah, but it's dialogue, when what you're saying is met with disagreement you stop talking, though in many cases it's misunderstanding, people not getting the joke or what I want to convey (not native English speaker here BTW), generally i find people here more ideology-driven and rarely getting the jokes, than on reddit, it was more loose back there (mandatory fuck spez obvs)

of course, i posted this as a joke (like "thanks Obama"), i really doubt his review had anything to do with the company going bankrupt, but seeing the downvotes i'll really think twice before commenting

It's not just about that, people will be disabling the feature that is potentially beneficial to their security, disabling http downloads from http sites is just an extension of blocking http downloads from https sites

Another security feature added is the blocking of downloading files from URLs that are on lists of potentially dangerous content.

Yeah, I'm not sure blocking HTTP downloads by default is a good idea, I mean many offices probably have some internal legacy HTTP only sites that nobody dares to touch, that are perfectly safe being HTTP (if you have hackers inside your network a simple intranet site spoofing is your least problem), and disabling this security option might have a lot of wider repercussions

Seems like a ~~blessing ~~ glaring kde bug, I mean how is it possible? Why a theme needs to be able to execute shell commands?

...just never connect it to the internet i guess? you have cable or aerial, right?

one question just to make sure, are you running it in performance or silent mode? there is a switch near the power plug, asking because there are conflicting comments/reviews/opinions online most saying it's silent and maxing at 70°C while fans are relatively silent and some say the cooling is loud

Definitely worth considering, thanks
