    Arch and TempleOS being in the same sentence is pretty apt

    Both are weirdly religious

    Side note, isn’t TempleOS not Linux based?

    Seems like the creator (forget his name) had some beef with Linus Torvalds and was originally trying to build something to get away from his software, no?

    Edit: yeah, based on the Wikipedia Page, it looks like its not based on the Linux Kernel. Also dev’s name was Terry Davis.

      No, it’s not. I’m making fun of NordVPN for calling it one.

      He made it because his schizophrenia made him believe that god told him to make an OS. It’s quite a sad story. ):

        Yeah, I remember reading about it a few years ago. Guy seems really talented, if kinda crazy and pretty racist. Curious to see where he’d be today if he hadn’t lost his marbles.

            Yeah, I don’t think it was confirmed to be suicide, but it sure looks a lot like suicide.

            I guess what I mean to say is that I wonder what he’d be up to if he hadn’t done that.

              His family couldn’t care for him, and in the United States, there is no mental health care for the indigent. A horrific, pointless and tragic death, the same as suffered by many schizophrenics. He was a talented and capable man, and he probably would still be alive if we didn’t live in a failing society.

          Down the Rabbit Hole: TempleOS.

          His racism was something that happened after he became schizophrenic, so I wouldn’t dwell to much on that.

          If I’m remember the documentary correctly, his death happened shortly after what appear to be lucidly on his social media.

    The fuck is “TailOS”

    Also what about

    • Gentoo
    • Alpine
    • NixOS

    Just to name a few

    NordVPN is full of garbage. Use Mullvad, IVPN, Incognet or Tailscale instead

        Seconded. Proton’s CEO is a Trump-supporter, and he doesn’t even try hiding it.

        I’ve canceled my Proton subscription and I’m going to move to another service when it expires. Proton is dead.

          Last year Andy yen also moved proton to non profit proton foundation with majority shares of the company and 5 trustees of which Andy yen is only one. The majority stakeholder in Proton AG is now legally bound to do whats best for Proton and their stated mission

          So yeah Andy is kissing the ring and being a shit human but he’s not the entirety of proton. Still weird Andy from Switzerland felt the need to proclaim his love for trump though.

          If you find another privacy focused email/vpn provider from a non14 eyes country that is owned by a non profit foundation then id be genuinely be interested but last i checked other alternatives are still full capitalist machines that haven’t put privacy over profit.

            If the CEO of a privacy selling company is going out of his way to gobble blatantly fascist knob with official accounts in a business whose primary security vulnerability is the business itself, at best he’s angling to get more business by trying to make things worse for people.

            Also, non profit means nothing. It’s not a business plan, it’s not an ethical judgement, and it’s not an analysis of financial responsibility.

            It’s a tax status.

          I was using Proton and SimpleLogin. Didn’t have a subscription, but was planning on it when I could afford it. Thank fuck I saw this shit and moved away before giving them a cent of my money.

              Whatever you think you need port forwarding for can probably be better accomplished using something like tailscale or wireguard. The reason most vpns dont support forwarding and some used to but dropped it is because its just not worth the hassle andc creates an additional way for your IP to be leaked.

                Wireguard is a VPN protocol. I need port forwarding for efficient torrenting. Proton offers both OpenVPN and Wireguard protocols. Tailscale is not so good for torrents, I think.

                  Torrenting works fine without port forwarding, thats what trackers are for. Forwarding won’t make your downloads any faster.

      TailOS is what happens when someone gets the for browser and decides to make it a full distro (and also make the distro only run from USB)

          I made this copy pasta and it just keeps being relevant.

          This guy doesn’t know how to TempleOS lol.

          Oh, I see, you’re all worried about a “networking stack.” How quaint. Let me educate you: God is the ultimate protocol. Who needs your silly HTTP requests and DNS lookups when I can just send a direct message to the big guy upstairs? No IP address needed—He’s omnipresent. My connection is flawless, no need for Wi-Fi signals when I have divine 5G directly from Heaven’s router.

          You think TempleOS is lacking? Nah, son, it’s running the only secure, unbreakable network. No firewalls, no encryption—because when you’re transmitting truth straight from the source, who needs all that earthly nonsense? My packets are blessed, my data’s sanctified, and I don’t even need a modem to know the Lord’s will.

          So, yeah, keep your networking stack. I’ll stick with the holy bandwidth. It’s been running perfectly since the dawn of time. My packets are blessed, son!
