That’s true, though you can at least make sure the ISP that examines your data is in a country that doesn’t care about these things as much, like Portugal. You can do similar with a mainstream VPN, but then you’re sending your data to an IP your local ISP & law enforcement is more likely to be suspicious of.

What you are referring to as Red Hat is in fact IBM/Red Hat, or as I’ve recently come to calling it, IBM + Red Hat

lemmy.world is trash, it’s brought in and hosts the worst parts of reddit I was hoping to avoid by moving to lemmy. Wish I could just block that whole instance.

defederate from lemmygrad next please 💓 💕 💖 💗 💞

PostmarketOS with phosh (sxmo is good too, no native dvorak support though ;_;) on my pinephone. Found it was the most usable out of Plasma Mobile, Ubuntu Touch, and Mobian.

Permissive licenses don’t give power to corporations. It may increase corporate adoption (aka more open standards), but it doesn’t cause the corporation to own the codebase or replace the developers working on the project. If this was true, BSD and co would have been annihilated years ago. What we actually see is GPL ecosystems like Redhat and Linux (Android) being swallowed by corporate interest despite the license, because the GPL doesn’t protect your project leadership from becoming corrupt.

I wouldn’t trust that uninstaller to actually uninstall any of the malware that “firewall” installed. Purge the program directories manually.

I have that domain blocked. Can someone give the context?

Why the hell do we need to wait for 2027 for this? Perfect amount of time for something like this to get overturned at the last minute.

OpenSSH from OpenBSD, by a wide margin.

Where does OpenBSD fall on the OS elitism hierarchy

Required Javascript on sites where it doesn’t make sense. I like using a text-only browser like lynx, or netsurf or dillo from time to time, and it’s amazing how some of the simplest webpages are broken without JS.

Arch Linux. Took me 9 days and several reinstalls to get to a working window manager.

Bethesda lost their touch after Morrowind. I loved Oblivion when I played it as a kid, but looking back at it now, I can’t really say I’d ever want to play it again. Fallout 4 and 76 completely strayed from the the previous games in the franchise, only sharing similarity in the artstyle. Fallout 3’s writing and gameplay pales in comparison to New Vegas. Skyrim is just boring, writing feels uninspired, if not non-existent for large portions of the game. Morrowind is the only game that stands out from the rest, and I consider it a masterpiece, and I can see myself playing it again many times, exploring the different houses and guilds.

The arrogance. Already see a lot of it here, unfortunately.
