Slammed/slams is my absolute least favorite headline trend of the past decade. So trash.

Soon to be rebranded as Thunderbird

Cromite

Because Firefox scrolling is terrible on android otherwise I’d use it.

EndeavorOS is essential in the top tier of my dingo the most corrupt politicians say dumb things like periscopes of my own game company in Ohio

The original large gameboys had a lock that utilized the slot via the power switch. The pocket removed the lock therefore allowing the non slotted Color games to be used in a pocket gameboy.

I’ve played maybe an hour or 2 on my PS2 maybe a year or two ago and the mechanics sounded so amazing, but in execution they don’t seem to work as intended like you said.

Per this article from EndeavourOS discovery I was able to repair my similar issue.

However my device wasn’t encrypted. However near the bottom are instructions if you are and they don’t quite match what you said you did. Maybe give it a try?

"Encrypted installs In case /dev/sda2 is the encrypted root partition you need to unlock:

sudo cryptsetup open /dev/sda2 mycryptdevice

It will ask for your LUKS passphrase and unlocks the device into the path /dev/mapper/mycryptdevice

This path can be used to mount the device:

sudo mount /dev/mapper/mycryptdevice /mnt

Followed by mounting the ESP (EFI-System-Partition) into the already mounted system:

sudo mount /dev/sdXn /mnt/efi

where in all cases /dev/sdXn needs to be changed according to what is used on your install as partition/device path and the mount path for the ESP needs to get changed according to your installed system in case. If it is /efi you need to mount on /mnt/efi if it is /boot/efi it would be /mnt/boot/efi …"

Great read. Thanks

I legit thought that was about to be the joke he was going for at first.

I’m aware that money is made. Most of the time companies are buying API feeds of data from the big 3. So unless someone specifically looked you up, then I am saying your data is probably just sitting in their databases.

What makes you think your data has even been sold at all? Most likely a majority of those companies are just resellers of TransUnion, Equifax, or Experian. The 3 big credit bureaus. So while incogni sent then requests the smaller companies may host no data of yours, just the other 3.

The flags are literally floating. There are no structures close enough for them to be attached to

Holy moly great news. There’s hope for our /home after all. I think Firefox has an open bug thread or request thread for XDG Base Directory that’s like …20 years old?

Former maintainer of the .xz project for about a year or two. Hid a backdoor into the code that almost made it into many bigger distros if it wasn’t found by a Microsoft employee.

Go for EndeavourOS if you want to use Arch with a lot of legwork done.

This is really cool man, its wild how much things have changed but those are super endearing.

I own quite a lot of mp3s legally. Host them on a 50 dollar raspberry pi with something called Navidrome which uses a protocol called subsonic.

I can stream my own music from my home to my phone etc or anywhere. Otherwise yeah just having them locally is the other best option.

Would this allow you to get achievements/trophies then?

As a programmer: “your data is boring. I am not interested in leveraging this for anything besides getting the service you are using to work as well as possible”

Also me as a programmer: “yo, you don’t need that data, stop asking for it. Ohh, your app is broken because it can’t access permissions? Yeet.”

It’s not about the programmers. It’s about the company and the ability to make money off of data they get from you. You should be the one who gets money for your data. Not Microsoft, not Google etc.

Is Microsoft making money off of this particular telemetry data? Maybe not. It should always be opt-in

This just simply isn’t accurate. There are often extra features that require an internet connection. And there are also some blu-ray movies that might require some form of internet connection to watch but the vast majority of consumer blu ray movies require no internet connection to watch them.
