Before you upgrade, see how much you’re utilizing swap space.

Type free into a terminal to see this.

If you don’t see swap space, or if it looks under-utilized, you can increase the capacity and how much it’s used.

See how much it’s used with cat /proc/sys/vm/swappiness. 60 is the default, anything less than that means swap space isn’t being used as often, anything greater means it’s being used more often.

I recommend just asking AI on how to increase swap space if what you see is not enough.

Use a VPN. Here’s a free one: https://riseup.net/en/vpn

Download and watch.

Here’s a free streaming site: https://hydrahd.sh/

I was afraid someone would do that.

Piracy is a solution, not a problem.

The problem is the disparity in wealth and the sea of useful idiots who think copyright and patent laws benefit us.

I want the representatives of the ruling class to look at copyright and patents laws as little as possible.

I guarantee you, any changes they make will not be in our favor.

Russia wouldn’t have invaded Ukraine if Ukraine had a military comparable to the US’.

Not being pedantic, just thought I’d let you and others know there are multiple ways to spell this word.

Don’t destroy wealth.

Reclaim it.

Since crapitalism infests every facet of our existence, we have no shortage of opportunities to fight back against it.

Dealing with people like you is exhausting.

Easy ignore, though.

Trying to think what I would do in their situation…

I’d probably do whatever I can to punish the zionist pigs that put me there.

I believe it’s a chicken and an egg problem.

If free software projects had more users, those users would improve the software further with donations, patches, and bug reports.

It’s disgusting how many businesses have been herded into wasting money on products they can be using for free, then convincing customers they “need more money.”

Addiction is extremely dangerous and you can end up wasting years of your life on something that really isn’t that important to you.

It’s sad how many people in my generation encourage others to become addicted to things like video games.

Games like league reward people who put more time into them while punishing those who put in less. It’s particularly exploitative because it encourages us to spend as much time in the game as possible so we’re as good as we can be when we’re playing with our friends. It genuinely feels good to be good at the game because that transfers to wins for your team and respect from your peers.

More people playing competitive games need to realize the tricks at play to get them addicted as long as possible. I avoid games like that with other people because I know firsthand how detrimental they can be to my psyche.

I recommend playing co-op games instead. Focus on working together against the computer instead of fighting each other. That way there are challenges you can eventually beat, rather than fighting players who always put more time into the game than you.

I’m a Linux Pirate. It’s possible to play co-op games online for free with programs such as Sunshine+Moonlight for streaming, emulators with netplay, and you can even play any LAN game online using something like Hamachi.

All money wasted just so the US can support israel.

More money lost supporting the state of israel.

Downloading books needs to be the norm for education.

It’s disgusting how we create this culture where those who have wealth get priority access to knowledge that will help them further their wealth.

Publishing shouldn’t even be an industry in 2025.

Or 2024… 2023… etc etc.

Man this generation sucks.

The disparity in wealth should shrink instead of grow.

Sharing software is a tool to achieve that end.
