I don't usually participate in communities of my interest, like vegan, communist, anarchist, etc. because I know I don't agree a 100% and that there will always be people that think are better than others or that have a lot more time to spend on activism than me. But all my friends know I never back down when discussing important topics with anyone, I always tell them that I will take the time to discuss with people they don't like, like weird conservatives and other uncomfortable groups (which have a big presence where I study).

I usually can recognize when someone is close to being more left-leaning than what they think they are, and I take the time to talk to them about it, which a lot of leftist communities don't (at least from what I've seen). Yes, there are trolls, but usually when talking in person, they aren't that stupid.

Thank you! That's really helpful for the plans I have :)

May I ask what are the specs and size of those Thinkcentres? I have one I'm using as a server and planning to upgrade the CPU because it has a dual core one, and someone offered me the same one I have, but it's pretty big. I'd prefer to use the tiny models when I can buy some :D

Same here in México, a lot of people think their dual core Intel from 2011 (and even older than that) is still worth more than +$100USD. Even worse, companies usually want to resell devices to recover some of the cost, so even that option is kind of expensive. I'm waiting for some friends that can buy company devices for cheap so they can resell them to me for cheap too lol

Hey, I also sway my foot while using the terminal!

We're 10 years early, it was supposed to happen on 2035 😭

Same. I mean, I was already looking to rent a VPS, but at least there's some time so I can save money until things get weird.

In México very little News sources use RSS, at most they have Flipboard accounts or Twitter :(

This also applies to information about the government, where most of the politicians and other elements use Twitter :/

Lol I'm a linux user, but I rarely see content about it on Mastodon. I try to center over conversations and so and try to keep Tech content here in Lemmy.

You literally create your feed and select the people you want to connect to, it's easier to control the things you see ;)

Please share your journey if you adventure yourself to switch your server to MicroOS. I'm curious about switching mine from Tumbleweed to MicroOS or Leap, but I'm still not a fan of Podman Quadlets tbh.

BTW, since you use Aeon in one laptop, do you use Distrobox? If so, has it affected your battery life? :)

I want to do things like that, but I first require more space and time, I just bought and ESP32, but I still need some other components heh

¡Buena suerte aprendiendo español!, it can be hard because of all the conjugations and times we use. I'm trying to learn German 🤓

I'll check it out, thanks! Have you used a lot of VMWare software, for example? We have networking classes with software/hardware from Cisco, but barely touch any other tools.

And they certainly look like losers lol

Hmm, I'm liking it very much. I've been self-hosting as part of my learning journey so I can understand better the things I learn and apply them. Right now I'm concerned with people replacing security roles with AI, but it's México and we're so behind in cybersecurity I think I can worry later. I want to go into GRC or auditing, any tips?

I like a lot of different areas, I'm thinking about following one of my teachers ideas and also offer freelance monitoring solutions. I try to learn a bit of everything so I can stay ready :)

BTW, if you know any software that's very used so I can start checking out, I'd be glad to hear about it. I know the FOSS alternatives are not that common and that's what I have to use rn
