If you’re tired of python’s and venv issues, give miniconda a try. It solved most of my issues with dependencies and different python version in scripts.

It’s probably a skill issue regarding to pip/pipx/venv… But miniconda really made everything easier.

What about exFAT? It overcomes FAT32’s limitation and is nearly readable on every OS and has way higher file size limits.

Edit: In case of external storage like USB/hard drive.

Hahaha… What a stupid take. Yeah scientific research isn’t biased and hasn’t been poisoned by conflict of interest… never has been and never will I guess? Scientific research is the ultimate truth of wisdom and you don’t need your own critical thinking anymore 😮‍💨 (Yeah the tobacco industry was right, smoking is healthy !)

when the researchers themselves are saying the work isn’t over. why are all the super geniuses in this thread so smugly announcing this topic is wrapped up?

It’s better to be safe than sorry

Edit:

Therefore, the fact that no evidence for large-scale mobile eavesdropping has been found so far should not be interpreted as an all-clear. It could only mean that it is difficult – under current circumstances perhaps even impossible – to detect such attacks effectively.

Scientific enough?

76 up’s / 68 down’s on OP’s post.

It’s very close, still the majority wins, that’s how it works, if not happy change the system not the voters.

Maybe not 24x7 but this did happened and people have reported it multiple times. If you really think those multi-billion dollars companies are not capable of or won’t do anything so sketchy because it’s not “worth it”, then it’s time to open your mind to the possibility that those companies are not your friends.

This is a neat workaround !! Still, for privacy reason I keep my addons to a strict minimum.

However I save your comment as emergency workaround ! Thanks for the tip !

While I do get most of them, I’m really confused by NOR and XNOR.

Why is there suddenly and out of bound mask outside the circles? (If that does make sense :/)

PS: sorry for the serious question XD I probably don’t get the joke?

Not sure if this is what happend, but there is a sync option in samba where you can sync your samba user password with login user password.

However this needs explicitly be stated in the samba.conf and needs some further configuration. It could be possible that the installation fuckedup something with passwd.

Just guessing here, I played a bit arround with samba and password syncing.

I get your feeling :) Don’t worry the silent majority is on your side. However they won’t comment because they fear from being banned or backslashed…

While It can’t be proven or disapproved, I also had my share of strange coincidence where my mind goes “Huh? How is that even possible?”… Kinda strange feeling! But that feeling gave me the push to the privacy route maybe in a rather to extreme direction? Always follow your guts when there’s to much noise to make a clear decision.

• RethinkDNS (block every in/out request except those manually allowed)
• Degoogles android (Shizuku+canta, magisk, debloater)
• Only open source apps and delete everything else (no exceptions here) -…

You will never get full 100% privacy or anonymity, however you can make your data as much as difficult to get and waste some of their resource and time :).

Good luck !

Yeah… This was probably intentional. Now we get why ! They didn’t put to much effort for the self-hosted version, because they didn’t want you to self-host.

XFCE4 ! Stable, simple and EndeavourOS’ design is top notch !

However there are some glitches from time to time. Nothing to serious but when I use Lutris + Wine my desktop bar does some wired shit.

Also when coming back from sleep I have to “pkill xfce4-session”. Though I’m not totally sure it’s an xfce issue…this could also be Nvidia or X11 related… Didn’t dived to deep.

Hummm… Guess you’re to sensible? I mean I’m die hard linux lover for 3 years now and will never switch back to Windows… EVER!

However, I found some of those posts quite funny !

I think it was… Cyberwar/crime is the new kind of war, it can be deadly and put a whole country/system on halt with a lot of consequences (human and resources).

Most people would call out conspiracy theory, but I do firmly believe that those higher ups are doing WAY more bad things behind our backs than we can imagine.

But hey we have no proofs, except those lost trails left by good people who need to hide their own asses because the government are looking for them for crime against the government?

That’s exactly why I value privacy and doing everyday my best to leave as less information about me as possible. Sure they have the mean/money to find where I live in seconds but they won’t get that information without a fight ! F#CK big corporations !

That’s also how my Linux download folder looks from time to time XD But since I’m on Arch bases distro I try to be more organized and clean-up that Download folder mess !!!

I’ve subscribed to YT Premium today.

If you’re on Android there’s InnerTune. It’s basically YouTube music but for free ! Just to bad you can’t directly access downloaded files to export them elsewhere. (Yeah that’s practically piracy and illegal)

I like navidrome + Tempo as self-hosted solution. Works well without any issues. However, I read about horror stories people losing all their media or fucking up their media library ?

Also, that’s a huge song library (20.000?)… Not sure this can be easily handled over to a self-hosted solution? But first you need to organize your songs

I think right now it doesn’t mean anything :/. It’s more a ‘wait&see’ situation… However as many many other stories in the past, this doesn’t sound good and bitwarden is slowly and carefully following the ‘enshitification’ path !

Keep an eye open and get ready to switch to another password manager (maybe a fork?).

Hey :) Thanks for the pointer. This was to beautiful to be true ! I searched around the web and found out what is actually happening in the background (learned something new and important so thank you!). And effectively It was writing to the cache and I wasn’t aware that was a thing on Linux.

The command I used to track it down: sync & watch -n 1 grep -e Dirty: /proc/meminfo. Took me some time to come across the right command and realize what’s happening.

Will update my post right way (BTW is still hate MacOS !)

Thank your for the hint, I will give it a try. I feel a bit stupid right now 😅

Ohhh? Interesting… First time I heard that and somehow rings a bell… I think I need to investigate your lead. Makes me feel a bit stupid right now.

:/

2GB/s or 2Gb/s? Because from the documentation USB 3.1 Gen2 is advertised UP to 10Gb/s.

And I guess there isn’t any way to “uncap” the throughput without being an even more Smartass? 😄
