First of all, don't feel bad about it. That said if you want to improve yourself in the virtualization department and get rid of Oracle's VirtualBox, I recommend having a look at virt-manager with KVM/Qemu as a VM host. It's a bit more of initial setup but once this is done it works pretty much the same way as VirtualBox.

There is only a subset of Windows games left that does not run on Linux. Mostly games with kernelbased Anti-Cheat and a few other outliers. I've been gaming exclusively on Linux for years now. Have a look at the ProtonDB website to see if your favourite games are running on Linux

I had to setup a custom pihole LG blacklist to keep it from displaying ads in the menu. And LG is well known for spying on their customers in the worst way possible

I'm not going to buy anything from LG any more. My ongoing battle against my own LG TV's enshittification (forced ads and AI everywhere, getting worse every update) has soured my opinion on LG. They can go to hell.

I did that one year ago, and I don't miss it. Amazon degraded to a marketplace of low quality Chinese crap anyway. It's really easy to avoid

Exactly this. If you use it as part of a compound word or as a verb it's totally fine. However "der Führer" (the Führer) is exclusively used to describe Hitler, and it usually has a negative or ironic vibe depending on who says it.

About the Führerschein... führen and fahren have the same etymological root... It is still used in "Führen eines Fahrzeugs" which simply means "driving a car" and that is where the term comes from.

Same here. I'm not actively using it, but it fills up with spam. Training AI on that... excellent idea 😈

It's also sad that Nextcloud with their pile of hot PHP garbage seem zo be the ony viable option (apart from selfhosting) when looking for an alternative to OneDrive.

Highly specialized computing power that nobody needs. These are not ordinary multipurpose data centers. Even if you could use the hardware to run models for, let's say, cancer research: no one outside of the bubble is willing or able to stem the enormous costs of running the infrastructure.

This website has one of the most malicious pseudo cookie banners I have seen so far. I wonder why they are doing this at all, because it's illegal where sich an Option is required and useless in all other places

Leaning out of a window

 
 

I'm looking for a way to filter by text in Jerboa, for example hide every post if the title starts with "Trump“

Don't know if I just can't find it or if it doesn't exist. If it's the latter, this would be a welcome addition.
