your clock is off because you have resistfingerprinting turned on, so it puts you into utc+0 to prevent tracking.

and you have to explicitly allow to save cookies for specific domains to not get logged out (check out the padlock icon in the status bar, there's an option to keep data for the domain you're on)

seems like i took the bait, nice one. but considering that i've met people who argued that "a linux computer can't be secure without flatpak" i'd put nothing past flatpak fans at this point.

…did that ever happen to you with healthy maintained software? i'd be quite curious to know, because it did not happen to me.

on the other hand, my image viewer doesn't need a 300 megabyte runtime and i can launch it by its name and not by "flatpak run org.whatever.softwarename". and as a bonus it's dynamically linked too.

makes using it much more convenient

the backup wouldn't be encrypted but you can use luks to encrypt the backup drive too, the same way as you'd do with a drive in your computer.

i use rsync to send off my /home to an encrypted backup drive and restoring it you just reverse the source and destination and copy the stuff back.

when all the videos get put behind login walls and drm, perhaps someone will.

i don't think we had anything like clubs. there was no campus as they have in america, just a college and a student dorm that was shared with other faculties.

there were some club-like activities like tabletop game evenings every now and then but i always had classes during those and couldn't try them out.

quite likely, but it's not as effective as arch

in my first three years of college i spoke to maybe ten students, pretty much all of them because we were assigned a team project together. only one guy talked to me because we were sitting next to each other at the same class and i started a few short-lived conversations with whoever was next to me before exams if the teacher was taking too long to come.

besides that, many people (almost everyone it seems) came into the college as friend groups from high school. they spoke to each other, but you're not within that friend group and it feels awkward to butt in a conversation where everyone's already highschool friends and you're a stranger.
