Yeah it’s most likely that! Thanks

I do use dual boot, but still have Winboat on the Linux side because some windows specific apps that aren’t demanding. The ones that are demanding in performance are the ones that I use on Windows natively.

weird

Its not showing after reboot. I wanted to trace it back but theres no trace, hmm

Seemed to be /proc/4212 but its gone after I killed the process.

Thanks, this is useful info. It doesnt appear to be restarting itself after I killed the process. Is this a good sign?

I think I solved it? I ran

sudo kill -9 <PID>

(PID being 4212 in my case)

Memory usage is back to normal afer a reboot, seems fine!

yeah thats what i thought :/ how tf do i get rid of this?

Try this! Fusion360 for Linux - project by Cryinkfly. I’ve seen it work for some people but I havent gotten it to work well for me.

Signal is great, but it is centralized. Session messenger is a great example of decentralizes e2ee messaging.

telegram doesnt encrypt by default, its a hidden feature. i wouldnt be too sure about iMessage, i believe E2EE is a bare minimum for everyone.

if you could add Ublock origin it would be awesome

I have found that even when people are conscious of the “technocratic & surveillance” state of the world, they still dont change their habits. Just like “this sucks” but they dont bother on looking for alternatives.

Even when I tell them about E2EE services, or the fediverse, they’re like “that sounds awesome”, but they never try it. Once I had a friend try Pixelfed and they loved it! I was so happy hehe but it goes stale after a few days, since other friends didnt switch. But were both telling others to switch sometimes.

My family uses Life360 for safety or emergencies, and I managed to switch them over to Paralino. It was all working seamlessly until they suddenly decided they wanted to go back, for whatever reason. I don’t know what it was, they wouldnt say, but it frustrates me that they would prefer giving out all out location info in rreal time to a company that has had many breaches and has sold such data, compared to a small one that can’t even access such data, and its just a few bucks. Idunno.

Ironfox & Vanadium as main search, and Tor as the default, for opening links.

I strongly believe nobody is entitled to keep a registry of the sites that we visit online. Not the gov, not your ISP, not your carrier. Thats why its essential for me.

A few sites wont load sometimes, which is my only exception to turn it off, and then on again, but its a habit i have gotten used to and its not that much work, given the benefits of an always-on trustworthy VPN.

Theres the Daylight Computer, that has a 60fps display which is “like e-paper”. (eink is the propietary name, epaper is the general name of the tech)

I wish this tech could receive more funding for research and development.

`+ e-ink variant o.o if possible?

How does Obscura compare? @Charger8232@lemmy.ml They’re pretty innovative imo. Its cool that VPNs are doing new stuff, like Mullvad’s DAITA.

uhhhhhhhh

do newer “AI Disturbance” filters work for this?
