Good fuck this company. I’m sure all the military contracts will keep their pockets lined unfortunately.

Not sure what works best in your case. I’m a Debian cat myself but I have been considering openbsd as a future option.
Just a vpn
Thankfully this was discovered before hitting stable distros but I’m hoping it increases scrutiny across the board. We dodged a bullet on this one.

Dental plan
I use a real sounding name like luis.m.donovan1962@gmail.com
The more real it appears the harder it is to distinguish garbage data. Also a personal VPN with aguard home running. If I end up choosing a real existing email, well I’m just helping muddy the profile of someone else.
No shopping apps ever, loyalty cards in a fake name with email aliases to a central junk mailbox.
To hell with the lot of them and their business model.
They can profile the device and get hardware info depending on make and software etc but the gold is their app which sucks up everything including your phone number and what you visit on their network. I wouldn’t dream of connecting without a vpn unless it was an emergency situation.
That being said data is always preferable when you have the option.
This is the way. Fuck them.
Curious to see what it can emulate with the new specs. I have the steam deck now but the form factor or the pi was always nice.
Only when there is a real need . Debian runs on everything and it is a no nonsense distro so I’ve been happy with that for years… Started on Debian 6 and continued until now on laptops servers and SBCs. Before that it was Ubuntu and crunchbang for a few years and before that was fedora core that came on like 6 cds with KDE3.
At this point the only interesting thing for me are security changes. Games are largely sorted due to wine , proton and vulkan and all of the great work going on there.
I keep and eye on quebesOS , NixOS, silverblue ,subgraphOS and openBSD and alpine.
The dream OS would be hardened by default. Hardened Kernel with ACLs for everything defined by default. Like each app should be required to list all of the files it accessed and the type of access in a manifest, list permissions it needs and of URLs it accesses. Obviously there is a need for some wildcard stuff but it could be limited in scope. More of the kernel in rust would be nice with legacy systems removed to reduce the technical debt.
I know we have apparmor and selinux and pax/grsec (if you pay) but I think they dont scale well and require a massive investment in time to understand and debug.
About three fiddy
Linux kernel
OpenBSD
Gnu Hurd
Debian
Tor
Fdroid
SteamOS
Vulkan / DXVK
Wayland
Firefox
I’m glad they are not rushing a new one out until there is some genuine leap in the tech. I think we have become accustomed to pointless upgrades every year which offer nothing substantial other than lining some shareholders pockets.
In my case the longer they take the better 😊
They can all go suck a lemon. Shell , coke , nestle , google, Microsoft, Netflix and rest. Fuck the lot of them
7z usually.
Sorry for your loss. ❤️
Their pricing is ridiculous.
I know I used to develop for it. My point was directed at the funding . The web needs a strong alternative to chrome now more than ever. Neutering projects like servo does not help. Also most non technical people don’t even know of Mozilla and anyone that does probably associates it with Firefox.
Anyway I’m downvoted for having a valid opinion. Whatever
I usually opt for 720p for movies and SD for shows. They’re good enough for me and I can store way more. The other thing is the devices and screens are dated now so at some point in the future I’ll probably want to get it all again at better quality but for now it does the job.
