I’m using Brave cause I love and need Chromium. Firefox and Vivaldi are great options too.
You could use a PiHole or nextdns.io too as a DNS blocker against ads and trackers.

you forgot linux as an alternative to windows and mac;)
my laptop probably has very similar specs to your laptop. also, windows just uses more computing resources than linux in general.
i dont care about if its few seconds faster at booting or has few percents more resources availabe after hours of configuring.
all i need for my apprenticeship is just a windows laptop to work with office365 and a few specific apps, which dont need full resources. but it has to be windows because of domain policy from ADDS.
my apprentice will end in a few weeks and since i wont need these apps anymore tomorrow in a week, ill delete the windows partitions from my laptop.
id appreciate you helping me and others with articles how to get a bit faster windows system, if id asked for it, but i didnt.
i love that comment😂
my laptop is pretty good, its just windows using much resources. yeah i’d be able to but i only use it like 3h per week for one buggy app. its not worth it
similar here. im still ‘new’ to linux but have to use windows for my apprentice. also my father uses windows. so often i have to click a button multiple times, ads, or window not responding, ads, sometimes its slow af. did I already mention ads?
RIP to people who never shutdown or restart their PCs
there aren’t.
& most people don’t even know what/ who C418 is…
less really is more with more features. and more IS less with less features
did you know there is a vim tutor for learning how to vim?
You can’t really prevent a brute force attack. Even if you prevent it from one IP or so, you can still do “distributed” brute force attacks.
Also only allowing one password per 5 seconds or so per IP will not work if you have lots of users and they are at work and have the same IP.
no, since it first checks if the password is correct. if it is, display error message. if it is corrent and the second time, accept the password (code not in screenshot) but if the password is wrong, it doesnt check if it is the first attempt.
i will never hear “alpha male” the same from now on.
but you are right!😂
Great idea for when you start in IT! Always had trouble first year in my apprenticeship when i had accidentally opened vim. Ask for first time and after 2 months not used.
Did someone already open a pull request?
using an ad blocker. personally, i use ad blockers for years and when i work on a friends laptop im shocked how much ads there are actually. i cant count on a hand how mucn i told my father he should use ad blocker browser and extenstion. and he wont do it. recently, i changed the DNS server on a router level to nextdns, where it blocks ads and trackers. he told me its amazing how smoother the experience is now
password managers. as an IT specialist i have about 300 login details for many services, personal, work and clients. every login has its own password and eventually email too. and i know sooooo many people who forgot their passwords (they have about 3 very similar ones but ok) and try them all until they find out they had to creat a new for that specific service. and they are so unaware about the dangers (for example fishing, SE, …) with this method.
