Yesterday I saw a post on Lemmy about software tracking in cars. Reminded me of a Mastodon post I'd seen earlier that day, by journalist Kashmir Hill. I looked up the Mastodon post I had seen in the Explore time line, cursed somewhat because the time line was filled with newer posts, and gave up. Started searching with a search engine and found the Mastodon profile page of the journalist. Found the toot, and began writing a comment in the Lemmy post page, and just before hitting the Send button I noticed that the Lemmy post was about a newspaper article written by ... Kashmir Hill π

One thing you can do :
- Install F-Droid app if you haven't do so.
- Install NetGuard https://f-droid.org/en/packages/eu.faircode.netguard/
- In the NetGuard settings block all apps including system apps.
- Start allowing the apps you need to have WiFi and/or Mobile Data access
- Consider donating to NetGuard or go Pro to support the developer https://netguard.me/
Thanks, I had no problems so far with the WBM archive. Other pages did load fine in the same Tor browser session. Maybe the copied page had some Cloudflare or Cloudfront (?) related JavaScript copied in ?
Cloudron is kind of a freemium product. They offer a few apps (two ?) for free to use. For more apps you need to pay. Their back-end does have a view-source-but-no-edit "open source" license last time I checked. Bu if you want to keep things easy, go for it.
Exactly. And IRC allows one to very quickly ask a tech question via web IRC chat or IRC client without having to sign up somewhere (Discord, Matrix, Mattermost and so on).
I like Vanilla Gnome nowadays and when I want to see a new distro, I just check it out in a VM.
I liked GNOME 3, and first disliked GNOME 4 but with the gnome-tweaks tool (to get the two extra window buttons back) and the easy to enable Night Light feature, I got used to it and appreciate it more and more.
I think Chrunchbang (R.I.P.) was my favorite distro when I was all-in on distro hopping and customizing everything.
btw, there's a new life : https://www.crunchbangplusplus.org/
But at some point for a developer, your OS becomes more of a tool for opening an IDE and/or terminal and you value stability over customization or having the very latest software. In the Flatpak era, thatβs even more true since you can run the newest versions regardless of the system.
Agreed.
FYI : The embedded OS in the elevator infrastructure was the [NOT DISCLOSED] OS.
π Great! Keep them coming. Thank you!
I like that comparison a lot. Thanks for sharing.
