My favorite is all the “time management / your own business / quit your job / you can follow your dreams too” books.
Every inside cover: "Bob McBourgoi was just like you, making $500k a year in a soulless corporate job, but like you, he wanted something more from life.
He decided to quit that job (so scary!) and use a fraction of his $80k in savings and a humble plea for a $100k loan from his parents (so brave!) to start on his dream life of being a (game designer / pet stylist / interior vibe checker / indie band frontman / painter).
It was super risky. Could he really tell his Real Housewife that he was turning down the cashflow for a few months? But he took the leap. What a brave guy.
He even wrote this book. All by himself. Definitely. It includes such advice as “If you just believe in yourself” and “manifest that dream” so you too, can do something with your life that’s actually your choice."
Bonus points for “Have you tried using a calendar?” And “The clock is a useful tool to know what time it is.”
Obvious for everyone else, and ADHD kids go screw (y)ourselves basically lol.
“Look, it’s a premium service with added value. An Uber can’t make cars sporadically pull to the side to get you there faster, can they? It’s worth the extra money.” /s
One of my absolute favorite features of the game “Hacknet” was finding these logs in various filesystems you hack into. Such a nice touch.
I made it a personal mission to copy them to myself before exiting the target. I distinctly remember the one about “duck stand-up comedy” too lol.
Keep calm and wipe the logs. :)
Still haven’t gotten Plasma 6 on OpenSUSE Tumbleweed. I know they’re making sure it’s a quality roll-out but I can’t wait!!! :)
I’m not a security specialist either. I learn new things every day, but this is why my NextCloud is accessible through TailScale only and I have zero ports exposed to the outside world.
The only real convenience I lose is being able to say “check out this thing on my personal server” with a link to someone outside my network, but that’s easily worked around.
Great question!
EndeavourOS has a great little wiki of tutorials around BTRFS and setting up snapshots, that’s a lot more friendly than just reading wiki manuals.
Here’s a link to the one about getting snapshots and rollbacks set up.
Alternatively, I run OpenSUSE Tumbleweed on my main production rig and it uses BTRFS and sets up snapshots from the GRUB menu for you by default!
I’m also using Nvidia, so while it’s gotten better and I haven’t had to roll back in a long time, Snapper has saved my butt once or twice in the past. ;)
And here I am missing the “ORLY / YARLY” owls, Lolcats “in ur stuffs, doin teh things”, and “advice animals” eras from approximately 2.8 billion years ago in Internet-scaled time lol.
…Also cereal guy was funny. :D
That’s really cool! I put my wife on Pop_OS recently and it’s been a little bumpy, but she’s also got a bit of a specialty laptop. Glad it’s been smooth for you :).
I really like your aesthetic, btw, how the wallpaper fits with your launch bar. Really pleasant!
Wish I had some advice for you, but heck, thanks for starting the thread because (after sifting highly opinionated goofposts) I’m learning a lot too. :)
Maybe uh…more recent, ancestors?
