Welp. A small inconvenience is the price to pay if you want privacy from the authorities.
I keep telling friends and family to switch browsers, switch text messengers, even switch social networks and they just complain that it’s all just inconveniences. But then they complain about their privacy.
C’mon.
I heard somewhere that authorities can’t ask you for a PIN but can ask you for a pattern because of the way the law is written.
I’d love for someone to confirm that though.
No. They may have the source code, but they don’t have the human resources to work on fixing security problems, major bugs or maintain it to keep following internet standards. They’re just a small team working on anonymizing it.
I’m trying to convince my fiend to sell his still in box new phone and install Lineage OS on his current one.
What happens when it’s other things that become illegal? Like certain topics. Like trans rights. Like the genocide in Palestine. Like abortions. Like criticizing Trump.
SSSSHHHHHHHH!!! 🤫🤫🤫🤫🤫 Don’t give anyone any ideas.

At least they are “without conservatives”, unlike our current political context.
I’m so glad I sold last week at 140. I’ve been meaning to get rid of them as soon as Trump got in office because I had a gut feeling he might fuck something up.
But surprise! China pops up with its own AI and shit hits the fan. It probably won’t last though, but I ain’t buying nvda anymore. Not with their CEO falling in line with every other techno fascists.
I saw my first Cybertruck yesterday. It really does look like a dumpster. It looks so cheap! And it doesn’t deliver the performance as advertised at all. I can’t believe people would buy this.
He probably did.
They could call it Eunux!
Oh…
You should get the Pantheon desktop environment for a more Mac like experience.
It’s got a touch interface more than anything else. I think this change came around the same time as Windows 8 when they went for a more touch screen-y experience.
I gave an original Surface Pro tablet and I use Ubuntu’s Gnome on it. It’s perfect for tablets I find. Not so great for desktop PCs.
Budgie has great potential. I really love the look and feel. And I especially love the side bar. I feel that’s a feature that’s missing in KDE.
Budgie however isn’t “there” yet. I’ve experienced quite a few bugs using it and it’s still missing a few features. But it’s getting there. It might become my go to one day.
I have mine look and work almost as exactly as Windows 10, which I really love in terms of UI/UX. It’s the most easiest and fastest desktop interface I’ve ever used so far.
I have a tiled app menu and I even changed the window decorations to look like Windows 10. I hate rounded corners. It’s such a waste of screen space.
That’s what I’d be using too. But it felt too incomplete and buggy. It’s not there yet, but it’s very promising.
Great job Wisconsin!
