@BaardFigur My dude, I understand and celebrate the memes, but please understand that linux first time using is a sensitve period in people’s lives and the reach of modern social media means there is some x% of users who will have a bad time, because they saw that meme and took it seriously.

It’s a statistical guarantee.

@wgs I really hope you’re trolling. Don’t do that.

Yes, this is expected and means the regular safeties are working. Don’t turn those off please.

@wgs

Generally, don’t just copy paste things you find online.

Something else to be aware of and stay away from is “rm -rf /” which will delete everything on your computer, including your operating system. Naturally this will crash the computer and you will not be able to start it again.

(You should be able to boot from a usb stick though.)

@bl4kers @floofloof I think it’s interesting that it’s just a 30 something dude.

The things he’s found aren’t super detective stuff either, he’s taken an interest, found a few pictures that look suspicious, looked some more and wrote about it. Something anyone can do.

I find that motivating.

“One option to avoid this is to self-host, but then you’ll be identifiable via your domain and have to maintain a server.”

Makes it a non issue.

It’s free as in freedom not as in free beer and that’s that.

Jitsi doesn’t have to offer free service and they particularly don’t have to provide anonymity.

The same is true for the fediverse, since the admins have info that could help identify users. That has it’s uses too.

@oshitwaddup @yogthos can’t find the source anymore but I saw a video that basically said “the closing of twitter was so chaotic you can claim whatever you want, they can’t check whether you are lying”

So if you are already on board with lying your resume… That? Former “senior backend engineer 5years”?

Obviously don’t put stuff they can just check, like claiming skills they can just test you for.

Also maybe not lead positions those people might be too famous.
