DepYou could attempt the non-selfish kind and just donate it all to an independent health/rescue org like Red Cross/Red Crescent.

You could also go the kinda-selfish route like Alfred Nobel, known in his time as the merchant of death. Make an elaborate award&grant giving scheme for exceptional contributions to society in a variety of fields; boosting said contributions for many years. Would only recommend this route if you’ve got more than enough coin to spare, as the overhead of ensuring ethical operation is significant.

If you’ve got a house, you could transfer ownership to a trust/foundation/housing coop, to make it available for living at below market price.

I’d donate to various free software & open hardware projects important to societal improvement; like Mozilla, certain fediverse projects, PostmarketOS, Fairphone, etc. Also anarchist orgs.

Nooooo

Well, there’s REISUB https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_SysRq_key

I see, makes some sense

Shouldn’t it at least be (potential yearly wage*50 + potential pension) adjusted for inflation?

My shitty napkin calculations puts that at about 750k, which still isn’t a lot, but a helluva lot more than he actually got.

$7.5 * 40h * 45weeks * 50years = lost wages = 675k Wages * 0.1 = pension = 67.5k

Wooo friend was that a good read!

To others who may be intimidated by the number of pages; regain composure, as only 17 of those pages belong to this specific story

…it’s gone. Was it short enough to recite in a comment?

Neat stuff!

Someone should nugde his shoulder, stare into his eyes, and whisper “you have more wealth than 3 billion people combined”

Definitely the transition from QT5 to QT6. It Looks identical, but has better wayland support and performance.

There are also a few new and hot features which I can’t recount at the moment (it’s 4:30 in the morning), but the pointieststick blog should have the droids you’re searching for

Niceeeee! I’ve tested a few KF6 apps in a rawhide+nightly copr distrobox on Kinoite, and they’re quick

Aren’t most of those at best vulnerable as a leaf in the wind; and at worst literal hacker gateways to your home?

I watched the Sam O’Nella vid just now, and… I’m sorry he had that experience? I guess SM might be more shite abroad?

What’s up? In my household (in Norway) we’ve specifically sought out Swiss Miss for the past seven(?) years, because everything else (apart from home-made goodies!) tastes shite.

If I’ve lost out on something, lmk!

Yup yup yup, would not recommend. I still binged it though, which is something I’ve got trouble with when it comes to ZeroCalcare’s latest series; which I love. I guess I’m in a ‘braindead entertainment’ kinda mood these weeks

I’ve also used a pinetime running infinitime for the past year, and I agree that it’s not exactly feature rich. I like it though.

I’ve heard that ‘bangle.js’ is an open source watch as well, with a decent feature set.

Great post! I’ve often used low cost as an argument for choosing open source software in my [IRL] communities, as the other advantages aren’t that successful when talking to people on a personal level. This post elaborates on those other advantages in a convincing way.

Out of curiousity, why not use a Windows 10 VM? Those signed ISOs should be readily available. windows 7 is a bit too vulnerable to be allowed internet access even in a VM, imo
