Dark web should really be called dark or overlay Internet.

All dark “web” browser use the same rendering engines and same spec as regular ones.

Saying Linux is for sysadmins (or similar) is like saying Framework Laptop is only for repair technicians.

I pay yearly more for IPv4 address space for virtual machines on my dedicated server than for that dedicated server itself _(ツ)_/.

Let that thing die.

Monthly summary:

54.40€ - 30 IPv4 addresses
0.00€ - 18 quintillion IPv6 addresses
38.39€ - whole server for dozens of services

At least it’s not the other way around.

Privacy fans, choose wisely:

  • have CGNAT on carrier side and add little tiny more work to track people
  • have public IP, making it easier to selfhost, to build P2P networks, to use anonymizing network like I2P, to host Tor nodes, to reach out to friend without central approved big tech cloud, that you can still hide with your own NAT or by using VPN

Once I have learned Arch, installing and maintaining it is super easy and fast. Troubleshooting a problem if it occurs is also easier because you know more how the system works internally.

But there is another problem I see when using it daily for many different things. I install Arch and week later when sending emoji find out there is no emoji font and I need to install one. Then month later needing to quickly use Bluetooth I realize I forgot to install bluez and some of it’s frontend. Then about to print something and now I need to learn how to install CUPS print server. All those things takes few minutes and have the best documentation in the Linux world, but after fresh install I get annoyed for first month or two for stuff that come preinstalled on other distros.

But… That’s also why I use Arch. I could run some post-install script from someone or use Endevour, but setting stuff how I want is the beauty of Arch.

I won’t say it’s “best”, as I just want to run a game without friendlists and other bloat, so I really hate the fact Steam is nessesary for so many games.

But I would call it “essentiall”.
