I’d do the Sentiero Italia (Grand Italian Trail)

Not really. It was released in November/December of 2006.

I don’t even remember the title, but it was written by Clive Cussler.

It was the dullest, most stereotypical adventure book with the bog standard protagonist and plot, with no interesting twist or unexpected event at all.

I picked it up from the library years ago on a whim and surprisingly really enjoyed it.

Well, except maybe the multiple pages long chapter about varieties of whales. That was a bit much.

You know why that is? Because we fucking did something about it

A comment like this one saved me from giving up on my aging phone.

No matter how convinced you are you definitely cleaned it, there still could be a little bit more stuck in there.

God is dead and we killed him

Yes, you can run Linux in a VM.

But also: you should be able to access your Windows partition from Linux, as it supports NTFS and FAT filesystems, and view the files there.

What I do is I have one partition with Windows, one with Linux, and a third one (with an NTFS file system) for the files I need to access from both.

Agreed. Just crushed a pizza and the crust was awesomely good

If you like puzzles, horror and all things weird, definitely try some of the games by Rusty Lake.

The entire Cube Escape series is available for free (a sort of excape the room puzzle).

First, don’t listen to his opinions on anything that isn’t about comouters and software. He doesn’t have a good track record there.

Do pay attention to his takes on technology and freedom, there’s a lot of food for though there.

I was at one of his talks recently, and he’s definitely and eccentric fellow. When it comes to free software he’s a die hard extremist, and I have a feeling he knows and to a certain extent he does that on purpose. Case in point, he mentioned how he refused hearing aids and would similarly refuse a pacemaker as there are none running on free software.

As such, that’s how I take his ideas about free software: a good philosophy taken to the extreme to showcase what’d be possible if we went all in on that, and the dangers of not doing it. Definitely not something that can work for everyone, or a realistic pathway to a world of free software.

I do think, however, that someone like him is fundamental to advance the cause of free software, even if no one takes him literally and emulates his way of life.

I’m not gonna refuse a life saving treatment or device because it runs on propriety software, but I am willing to sacrifice some convenience to use a free software alternative when available.

What happened? I’ve never heard of it

I heard that person actively contributed for something like 2 years, providing actually useful contributions, to gain the level of trust needed to plant that backdoor. Feels a bit too much to chalk it up to boredom.

As for the second part, that’s an interesting question. Are there lots of backdoors and we just happened to notice this one, or are backdoors very rare exactly because we’d have found them out soon like in this case?

Windows licenses AFAIK are already rarely bought on their own. The vast majority of users get one by having it bundled to a new device they purchase.

Jamendo is definitely still around, and there has always been plenty of music made as a score there

Say you’re a dictator without saying you’re a dictator

Ka is a wheel after all

I loved that one too, can’t wait for the right time to read it again
