That’s like calling stealing from shops essential for my existence and it would be “over” for me if they stop me. The shit these clowns say is just astounding. It’s like they have no morals and no self awareness and awareness for people around them.
One of reasons why I love Ubuntu is because it updates live and rarely even asks for my password. I’d use any other distro, but they all want stupid password for ANY update and some demand you restart the system. So stupid.
I’ve not yet had such screen on any system. Is this LTS or regular?
It wasn’t dumb from corporate perspective, which is why they all gobbled it up like junky hoovering on piles of white dust.
You know how expensive it is to mold unique dedicated physical buttons for every function and then wire them all over the place? Or just slap single touch display and cram all the shit into that single display. You code it once and use it on all models. Corporates were already counting the money saved there. Until it backfired because everyone hated it, reviewers criticized it and now it’s finally also criticized by safety agencies.
People need to learn how E2EE (End to End Encryption) works. It’s not that Signal refuses to cooperate with Ukraine, it’s that they can’t from technical reasons of E2EE.
Signal can’t read or intercept messages, at best they can log IPs and that’s about it. Which are useless if both parties are using VPN or other IP obfuscation methods.
It’s same with ProtonMail for example. The most they can log are IPs, metadata and subjects that are visible to them. And that’s it. They can’t access or read messages unless they create backoors on login page that access users decrypted data locally. That’s why creepy governments are so annoyed by encryption (looking at you UK you creeps as well as Australia and also Germany from recebt news and I didn’t even mention ones like Russia…).
Not really, just don’t trap yourself into their ecosystems. Use 3rd party services that work on all of them so you’re not trapped on either. I used iPhone for several years and because of using 3rd party cloud and mail services as well as password managers and browsers, I was able to switch back to Android without any hassle. And since I don’t use or rely on anything from Google either, I can go back to Apple this moment if I want and only hassle would be just setting up all the services. Which would take me like an hour for all of it.
Same goes for desktops. I run Windows on one of my systems because of gaming and the rest run Linux because fuck you Microsoft with your asshole arbitrary hardware requirements.I still have bookmarks and files synced between them thanks to 3rd party services that work on all of them.
Sure I don’t have a magic single button to log me into everything, but then again I’m also not a slave of anyone because I don’t depend on a single entity providing me all the services. Password managers save me that hassle so it’s basically the same, but ultimately better.
Why always this Terminal bullshit? Why can’t I just find it and click Install like a normal user and not like a fucking caveman?
I’m running Linux and neither Waterfox or LibreWolf are present in repository of one of the most popular distros. Come on?!
In Firefox, type about:config in address bar, search for “sponsored” and “telemetry” and set all the paremeters you see from TRUE to FALSE. Done.
I wouldn’t say it’s the best, but it is an option. They are based in Netherlands and they have servers there which is cool.
