Idk, you’re probably right.

What do you mean? She’s 32000 years old. /s

I know i2p is a bit hard, but if you can figure out how to torrent you should be able to. I would recommend i2p+, which is a fork of i2p that is compatible with regular i2p but is easier to setup. Get the installer here: https://i2pplus.github.io/. If you are on linux, don’t worry about it being an exe, it is java and you can run it with “java -jar file.exe.” After that, you can open a browser and type localhost:7657. Set your proxy in your browser to localhost:4444, for the http and https settings. It may be different if you use chrome. Now you should be able to access tracker2.postman.i2p/. Don’t forget a slash at the end. Your browser won’t recognize it as a website without it. You will need the torrent client, i2psnark, which can be accessed on localhost:7657/i2psnark.

This may sound complicated, but the steps to install i2p boil down to:

1. Download installer
2. Run installer
3. Access i2p dashboard through browser
4. Configure your browser to use i2p

I think the teacher specified that we use eclipse, and most who didn’t were using vscode. If I recall correctly, they did use eclipse. I don’t remember how it handles saves, but I don’t think it does that.

Gen Z here. Totally agree, though I personally am a bad example for this one. There was someone in my CS class once who I was put into a group with for a project. I needed some code that they had, so I asked them to put it on my flash drive. It was taking a while and eventually I asked why. They didn’t know where their IDE saved their code, and were using Windows search to try and find it. They were pretty good at actual programming, logic, etc. though.

You can use I2p and upload to postman (tracker).

Not very true. Plenty of gen z still torrent. This seems more like a shitpost.

I believe zfs has deduplication built in if you want a separate backup partition. Not sure about its reliability though. Personally I just have a script that keeps a backup and an oldbackup, and they are both fairly small. I keep a file in my home dir called excluded for things like linux ISOs that don’t need backed up.

To be fair, Netflix and the others all had to pay licensing fees and whatnot. I think governments should simply ban exclusivity deals so that competition can exist.

To be fair, most of Netflix is crap that no one watches.

Damn, federation is crazy. Over here you’re the only comment lol.

Wow, that must have had like 12 shows.

Frequently software developed for one is commonly used on the other, such as openssh, iirc.

Boot to BIOS. That should show you either CPU arch. or an exact model that you can check on Intel’s website. It may be an issue entirely unrelated to the architecture.

I wouldn’t switch to mint from debian. Freebsd could be worth trying, but I would play with it in a VM first. I am not knowledgeable about BSD’s, but there are others if you were unaware. They have similar names but I think netBSD and freebsd exist. FYI, BSD isn’t linux if you were unaware. Your phrasing suggested that you might think it is so I wanted to let you know.

Newer kernels are great if you need bleeding edge hardware or filesystems, but for your use case I really think debian is the way to go.

I would like to suggest you throw Fedora into the mix, or even opensuse if you want to try an rpm based distro. Opensuse has a leap flavor which is stable like debian. Fedora is fairly stable, but has regular releases (2 a year) so you also get more current software.

Sorry to throw more options into the mix, but those are fairly simple and mainstream options (fedora is more mainstream fyi) but they are worth considering.

Not that this isn’t interesting, but how is it linux related?

1. The worst that can happen is nintendo sues you for ten times what you have to make an example out of you. More likely is angry isp letters and eventually a fine.
2. Generally no, but they’re better than nothing.
3. Not that I know of. You can kind of set one up yourself on a vps, but that would probably cost more.
4. I would recommend airvpn. They are fairly cheap, accept standard credit/debit cards, as well as crypto or even cash (like actual mailed cash, it’s kinda crazy).
