Blik only works on smartphones inside banking apps. You can't just generate the codes on the bank's website. Don't fall for it, it's one more step towards bank fueled totalitarianism. I have no idea why it got so popular in Poland.

Not really but sounds like a perfect snack for the end of a night out

Thanks for the Wikipedia article. Can you quote or paraphrase the first sentence?

Claude 3.7 told me i'm wrong a couple of times. It knows how to search. I don't have an opinion on 4 yet but it can search too

I'm just sharing how I've found b2b contacts. My product was a financial failure but opened some doors.

A few more years of global warming and I'll grow avocados too, sounds great

I used google ads with very specific phrases and geolocation limited to rich countries. I spent a lot on it, the sales were like twice of what I spent, but I got some good contacts from it and they kept coming back for more.

But, and that's a big "but", I was employed before, noticed a niche that no commercial provider filled, and created my product. It wasn't an idea that I thought was fun or could change the world.

I like to leave ssh over tor hidden service on remote boxes. It's pretty resilient and can serve as emergency access for when something happens to the VPN. Not a great primary access method because of the latency.

That would be terrible, I have friends but they mostly send uninteresting stuff.

 

Is there a consensus on how to run Steam and games isolated from the main system? I've seen Flatpak mentioned in some Reddit post but I'm not sure how good the separation is. Everything about Flatpak sounds like an early work in progress, but I can be convinced otherwise.

I don't trust Steam or the closed source games at all. Currently I've got a second disk with a separate system for gaming, but I very rarely have the motivation to reboot. I want to game more (and spend less time on social media) but compromising my main OS is out of the question. Stuff in the home directory should be isolated from the games. Ideally no network access too, but Steam will not work in that case.

If someone has seen a ready made guide I'd be happy to read it. Any tips would be nice too.

 

I've noticed that the Nivea roll-on deodorants I'm using are pretty easy to open after used up, but haven't found any refill fluid on the market.

I know some people use powders etc, I'm not willing to try that, but does anyone know of a reasonably priced refill?
