I'm using Firefox on xfce on latest Debian. I have drive.proton.me open. File uploads and downloads work fine for me.

Can't get your hands on a second computer?

Udemy. There, the courses are user-reviewed so that you can filter the noise from the signal.

I took a course a few years ago. The production quality was low. The presenter was a heavy breather, and it was hard to think about much else.

I'd use scp, something like
scp ~/.ssh/id_rsa user@remote:~/.ssh/

Seems like the problem with this is the rate of change. For example, the Linux Kernel dead-tree books I bought back in the day were pretty much out of date the day they were published.

I have no suggestions 😔
I'd pay for something like a Udemy course on Linux internals. I was curious if something existed already.

Who paid for the time they spent learning their current Microsoft workflow? That shit didn't just jump in their head.

I'm not mad. I was hoping some C++ people perk up, admitting they are high, too!

Look! It's the old classic "back in my day... we didn't even have a spec or libraries."
Is it no longer cool to like a thing after it's formalized?

Instead of switching, I'd get another computer.

So far, I use one for a Pi Hole and another for a Raspberry Pi arcade. gregdonald.com/pages/retrop...
I've been curious about trying other Linux Distros on a new one that arrived recently.

What do you rely on it for?

Absolutely. I'm old enough to remember my local LUG leadership yelling at people for sending HTML emails to the listserv... or for top-posting.

I have ATT and tried that a few years ago. My connection broke when I port forwarded port 443. Then I tried again with getting a block of /29 IPs and that particular setup broke all our DVRs. I see you have https, did you do anything special to get that working?

Or do look further and recall the Basic weirdos being really upset about C.

An unelected billionaire fascist has seized control of OPM, Social Security, and the Treasury, and you're posting about fucking TOMATOES? You clueless, stupid bastard. RESIGN. NOW.

I left long ago, so I only see new departure announcements when people like you complain. I add your complaint time/date to my graph of those who "still tolerate Nazis and dick pill ads" and the departed to a "can't tolerate Nazis and dick pill ads anymore" graph. I love data—thanks for helping!

I read somewhere we should only use .unwrap() for rapid prototyping, replacing them with "if let" or .unwrap_or() or whatever later.
Clippy complains about .unwrap(): rust-lang.github.io/rust-clippy/...

As a software engineer, I will always own and operate as many different computers with as many different operating systems as I can, so I can use any software the world has to offer, paid or free, anytime I want.
I can't imagine limiting myself to a single computer because of game support.
