Wow 😲

Nope, I just checked. Apparently, you can’t say anything good about Linux. Seems like a useless waste of time but, whatever. If I got banned from that site I would consider it a blessing.

I’m not sure if it’s related but there was an annual symposium called “Linux Sucks”. It was a gathering of mostly Linux developers. The idea was to find the ways Linux sucks and develop ideas to fix the suck.

We’ve had meetings spelling out to users what they should look for in a suspicious email. Then, once a week we would send out an email that was either legitimate or suspicious. We would ask them to look closely at the email and mark down on the questionnaire whether the email was suspicious or legitimate. A not insignificant number of people failed the test every week. Your average user just isn’t equipped with the mindset they need to be safe on the internet.

I’m not saying don’t use the Internet. I’m saying be aware, be careful. Don’t let companies sell your information. Use two factor authentication. Encrypt everything you can. Scan your system for malware. Don’t open suspicious emails. Be proactive, but realize at some point someone could compromise your security.

I figure it’s best to assume that there is no privacy on the internet.

I’ve been in IT to close to 40 years and I don’t say anything online that I wouldn’t say in public.

I have looked at that. I don’t know why I haven’t looked at it yet. That was redundant. I need more coffee.

I forgot all about that one

I used to play that. It was pretty good. I just downloaded Diablo Immortal again. It’s hard to find something like it. Other games I like are Eternium and Anima.

The only thing I could find is Kane International

That looks really good

Thanks, I’ll look that up.

So, the Andromeda Strain was a documentary?

Scientists of discovered that saliva causes stomach cancer but only when swallowed in small amounts over a long period of time.

It was weirdly worded. It sounded like I was on the wrong instance. I think I get it now. Thank you very much.

Thank you

Thank you very much

They took my post down and now it’s back up. Even more confused now. Oh well, no biggie.

Oddly enough it looks like it’s back up. Never let them see your next move, I guess.

My question was: Is there a way to join another instance?
