in my mind, at least. $50/yr subscriptions actually last a lot longer than that, because they still let you update twice after the license expires, so you can just wait until the third update to renew. The "lifetime" is a bargain if you have more than 6 drives. The OS itself rocks. It's better than any linux distro.

It's a lot easier to use. Night and day. That adds up to less time spent making it fucking work. Something I thought was gonna take me all day ended up taking 30 minutes.

It's easy to set up a network share in Linux, it's harder to make it lag-free. This thing lets you do the math in your head, type some numbers into like 3 or 4 fields, max, and your done. You never have to edit shit.

It also doesn't really do 99% of the shit Linux does. It's purpose built, and using it like an OS just causes problems. It can host VMs, but it's a shitty platform for that.

I use qubes and disposable whonix vms and just nuke them and restart after touching the internet too long and for scripting i use app vms with a volatile root. I highly recommend such a setup

That’s the point. The entire qubes model is based on resisting system wide takeover. I just adapted to it and stopped making os level config changes. Ohhhh unless are you saying you are connected to a network with multiple devices you need to file share with? Why not just use an encrypted open source cloud for that?

The cloud is slow. I don't think Verizon Fios runs at half these speeds.

Yeah I guess you are right. I don’t trust anything other than qubes though. Nothing is safe anymore and with AI encryption doesn’t mean much. There is crazy stuff going down right now with people using AI AT SCALE to attack the untouchables

Encryption is useless against the US government, but no one else is breaking it. I use Wireguard to tunnel in and offhand I don't know how you would even start to hack that shit. There's no way to tell whether it's actively listening to a port unless you already have credentials.

All these assclowns on youtube are using it to run VMs. This guy flat out admits it right here:

All that RAM could be used for dirty writes. It should be used for those.
