    Is Debian or Transmission trying to tell me something?

    So, it's October, and I'm back from /dev/tty900.... Long time, no seek, lots of coffee, lots of caffeine. Well, lately, whenever a Torrent finishes, e.g., Kali Linux, Tails, insert any obsure_OS_name here, I keep getting xclock being opened up, and it's after each Torrent finishes. A few...

    Hey Guys. :) I'm still alive. :D

    Since COVID and quarantine started (which ended soon after 2021-22), my already-prevalent lack of interest in socializing (I have Austism, as some of you here know) took a huge blow. I still called people and visited others, but mostly just stayed in my room, making up excuses to stay home. I...

    Linux.org Detects My Adblocker?

    First, let me state this: I have nothing against ads, sponsors, etc.. I also want to support every Site I visit. :) But what worries me is ads that track me, and how it might be the case that scores of third-parties may or may not have their own privacy policies. I trust all of you here. But...

    I am part of a number of Linux and BSD groups... :3 I use any OS I wanna', and that of course includes *BSD and Linux. :) So I just don't understand this fanboyism that goes on.... And that's including the arguments for and against GPL v. BSD Licenses. :< Having a preference is fine, but as...

    What Do You Guys Think Of The BSDs?

    I use every OS out there, as long as it doesn't steal my unborn child (I'm actually still a virgin, giving that 40 year old dude from that movie a run for his money).
