Got em.

Holy shit you guys are losers. Lol.

Please Google OpSec. You Europeans are so ignorant.

Well I don't see anything

I don't care what you see. Lol. None of us care what you see or don't see. Get some perspective and shut up.

Why didn't the Jews simply vote and protest?

That's the point. Someone living in California has the same amount of sway with the president as someone from Bangladesh.

What do you think they're going to do? Go Join Wick on a state thousands of miles away? Send our representatives an angry letter? Succeed and be rolled back to the stone age? Lose their job so they can hold a sign just about everyone already agrees with in the snow? Pick a fight with every cop they see?

Make a Venn diagram. Put everything that's effective and realistic on one side and televising a revolution so joey in his mother's basement in Liverpool can feel like he's watching an Avengers movie on the other. You'll have two circles.

I stg these Europeans would be mad at Luke Skywalker if he didn't explain what he was doing and didn't live streamed the trench run. Go google what OpSec is and, please, shut the fuck up.

This is like yelling at the hostages in a bank robbery that they're not trying hard enough to be saved while the police watch outside with popcorn. All despite the fact that the bank robbers are going to come outside and be a problem for the police next.

You are in the same boat as the hostages. You have the same responsibility. You will not be able to explain to the boot that it's not your job. I know decades of not having to provide for your own defense had addled the tactical and reasonable sides of your brains, but it's time for you to get a little perspective.

People who would have gone into finance or received an MBA have been going to tech for a decade now. Every one of them pushes out someone who would have been a real developer.

I've also had the pleasure of watching a lot of the generation who's now complaining as they grew through their journey as developers. I think a lot of them are sugar coating their own abilities. I struggled with many a now illustrious developer whole they banged their head against the wall for hours.

Happy to help, man.

It's the same hate with a different face. These are the people who would be wearing red hats if they were born in the US. It's a product of social media pushing content that outrages users to keep them engaged longer.

You don't need a Static IP address for Tailscale. Just the Edge Router setup I was mentioning. Dyndns has been my go to for years if you do need one.

Samba is a great option. I've heard people say it's a pain to configure it for Max or Linux machines, but I think I had to click 6-7 things and it just worked. Lol.

You're supposed to gatekeep code. There is nothing wrong with gatekeeping things that aren't hobbies.

If someone can't explain every change they're making and why they chose to do it that way they're getting denied. The bar is low.

Have you tried just using a fileshare if it's just your other devices? You can VPN into a cheap Edge Router Lite and be able to access it remotely. I think you'll need a Dynamic DNS subscription for most residential locations. Your ISP may let you set a static one. May.

You'd need to secure the VPN, but it is a pretty solid setup. You can even get the Edge Router to act as a firewall or split up the network so you can only VPN into a specific segment of your network. It sounds complicated, but it's not too bad. A whole lot of I can guide you through it if that's what you want.

Tailscale may be easier from a setup perspective. I've never done a deep dive into the company and I'm more of a "do it myself" kinda guy, but I did like it when I tried it out for a while. It was definitely easy and effective. There's also HeadScale and NetMaker, but I don't have personal experience I can speak from on either. I wouldn't mind learning if you want to try it.

Are you just looking to share files or swap to Linux? If it's just Linux you can dip your toes in the water first: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install

That method does not get you a GUI though. You will be using the terminal. I recommend pairing it with MobaXTerm, an enhanced terminal, as Moba presents the file system in a windows like way. It's great for learning and you don't have to have the paid version, though it is a perpetual license.

I'd always recommend Ubuntu for beginners. It's not necessary the easiest, but it's pretty simple and where you'd struggle prepares you well for other Linux Distributions, or distros. It often comes with a windows like GUI.

There's also an option to "Try Ubuntu" by running it off a USB. It won't persist, or remember anything, between reboots, but that can be an advantage. I personally carry a drive with my own Live USB on my keychain.

When you're ready you can try setting up Dual Boot, where you choose to enter Windows or Linux on startup or jump in all the way.

You can run Linux off an old laptop, a raspberry/orange/banana pi or build something dedicated. I'm happy to help with any of them.

It's not impractical. It requires effort and Americans are too busy watching Netflix and spanking the monkey to do much of anything.
