Serious question: how can YouTube pay the bills with zero ads? I’m not talking about making a profit, just breaking even.

Except content creators want to create content, not maintain an instance.
Switching to more private and less data hungry services is a tough process. How private do you want to be? If you take it too far, you won’t have a cell phone or a bank account.
Carefully consider the changes you are willing make right now. Start small, progress slowly. Don’t get discouraged and remember that total privacy doesn’t exist.
Start by swapping search engine, don’t use Google or Bing. That’s an easy goal that already makes a big difference. Use something like Duck duck go, Startpage or something like that.
Eventually move away from gmail. Get your own domain, create your own email address. Slowly migrate your important accounts to the new email. This can take time but it’s not hard and you just removed the 2 largest sources of data from Google.
Stop using Chrome, try Firefox. Personally recommend LibreWolf, a Firefox fork. At the very least move to Brave browser (but make sure you disable the crypto crap). Most extensions exist in both browsers this should easy.
Eventually consider moving to Linux but don’t rush it. Study what apps you need, what alternatives are there in Linux. Expect a way worse user experience but a way way better ownership. Try in a VM or live environment before you even consider installing it for real.
Just go ahead and write a very basic working kernel in rust.
I don’t get this stance, really. If I want to write a driver in Rust I should start by creating a completely new Kernel and see if it gains momentum? The idea of allowing Rust in kernel drivers is to attract new blood to the project, not to intentionally divert it to a dummy project.
Rust is sufficiently different that you cannot expect C developers to learn rust to the level they have mastered C
If you watch the video, no one asked anything from the C developers other than documentation. They just want to know how to correctly make the Rust bindings.
Note that Rust is not replacing C code in the Kernel, just an added option to writing drivers.

Rent must be incredibly affordable in the US from what I’m reading here.
In the company I work with you can use whatever you want but I’m the only one using Linux :(
KDE has “”“tiling”“”. They called it tiling but it’s just god awful. If KDE had real automatic tiling, I would probably have sticked with it, to be honest.
I’m not really invested in Cosmic, I’m happy with Hyprland and will continue to use it.
I do think they did a REALLY nice job with the tiling. I don’t think you can find a more intuitive and user friendly tiling window manager. Something that’s not absolute barebones out of box and can be configured entirely with a GUI. In that regard it does bring something to the mix and is very very welcome.
If you try with a Tor browser you’ll get a unique ID everytime.

Or whatever website you prefer, really. Fingerprinting is not solved by a single extension or checkbox. It’s really hard.
I’m guessing people from South Korea get a little mad being asked this all the time.
You can try to fool it with a VPN, change country, etc but it doesn’t work. Fingerprinting is very strong these days.
Even if the AI was at the point if outputing exactly what you want correcly, decision makers would still need to be able to specify exactly what they want and need. “I want a website that pops” isn’t going to cut it.
Android ROMs community took Google’s work? Are you forgetting which community developed Kernel does Android use? Let’s not think about the custom ROMs community as free loaders, please. They provide a free and amazing service.
If you don’t have time to tinker maybe consider another distribution more suited to your needs. Waiting 5s for every action is not a time effective solution.
But don’t Razer products actually have a decent support on Linux?
Mate you need to debug your machine, that is not normal behaviour. I have endeavour on an old laptop and everything is fast.
I had a teacher who was really passionate about Ubuntu and was distributing Ubuntu 5/6 live CDs. I ended up installing it on my laptop. It was a pretty miserable experience. Everything was ugly as hell, configuring the sound card was a pain, Wi-Fi drivers had constant problems, upgrades to the new x.04/x.10 version borked the system 100℅ of the time. Pretty miserable but got the job done.
Nowadays the experience is much, much smoother. Just ensure you don’t need exclusive software.
I wasn’t able to set up a reverse tunnel, because I’m also under a corporate VPN :( I was able to get xfreerdp
to work, though! Maybe I can add some port-forward + tunnels and be free :P
Nah, your ISP doesn’t give you enough bandwidth to host your own mini YouTube. You vastly underestimate the bandwidth required to run the service. It’s massive, which is why PeerTube is having a hard time gaining traction.
