I’m surprised, I just looked it up that Greenlanders are allowed to own long guns without a permit. They’re just like the US, but better. Why the hell would they want to be apart of the US?

3·3 months agoDevelopers should choose a different license if they don’t want to free their code or go work on a project that’s inline with their values then. Poor them, I could care less. The GPL is made for YOUR freedom. Anything that allows a developer to not release their code because they don’t want to, well, that software becomes proprietary, which invades your freedom. Of course the GPL “restricts” those types of developers freedom to do whatever they want, how else would the software stay free? Don’t really understand what your arguement is here.
How is it so far? I’m thinking about getting a used motorhome around $15k, most likely from the late 90s or 2000s (one with at least a shower and toilet). I’m not a huge traveller, but boondocking seems interesting if I had a plan lined up, I would be open to living that way. I make around $65k/year and am single, no debt, so I think I could make it out. I already live a simplistic life, all I need is my guitar, laptop, and maybe a dog and I’d be chilling. The only thing I wonder about is surviving winter time or when it gets really hot out.
If you go to dark(.)fail, go to Dread forums and head to c/OpSec, one of the top posts has information on how to bypass all Internet censorship. It’s a super in-depth tutorial on bypassing censorship in countires like Russia, China, etc.

At this point I’m just buying an RV.
If we’re talking about security, the newer CPUs have better microcode. Those older CPUs are vulnerable to attacks such as Spectre. Older boards supported by Libreboot, such as the Haswell boards (e.g., Dell 9020 OptiPlex), which support 100% free BIOS firmware, which is to be used in conjunction with 100% free software. If you do so, you will have more security, freedom, and privacy than any other modern consumer grade computer.
Then again, these boards are old, so, given the microcode is old, if you’re running a virtual machine with a bunch of malicious software, an attacker can potentially exploit your host’s CPU and break out of that VM. Of course, determine your threat model. Are you running no JavaScript ever and only using libre software?
A deblobbed kernel isn’t great either in some cases, you may need some patches. For example, someone was able to exploit Intel’s iGPU on these older boards and gain complete access to your machine. The only way to fix this is by using a blob. Though, if you strictly only use libre software, this wouldn’t be a concern as much so you wouldn’t need this blob.
If you stick strictly to 100% free software, older hardware and a deblobbed kernel might be appropriate. But if you need to run blobs along with other proprietary software like JavaScript, the security provided by something like the Intel iGPU blob patch could be beneficial.
Use Debian and install the NVIDIA driver yourself, doesn’t Mint include non-free software by default? If this is your average Joe, they probably don’t care. In my honest opinion, it should be a mandatory task for every new GNU/Linux user to learn about Free Software, the GNU Project, and libre software. I am not a fan of Mint at all.

1·3 months agoCan’t we just fork it over to something like Codeberg eventually? I know it’s a lot to move over, but with time and patience, it seems achievable.
The whole point of the GNU/Linux operating system is for free speech. Whatever you’re trying to do California, it’s not going to happen. I refuse to run any proprietary software on my machines. It’s astounding that any porch for freedom is just gets blindly attacked by a bunch of uneducated fools. What a boring dystopia we live in…

Toasted English muffin with cream cheese and jelly goes crazy.
No. Avoid this by switching to a free operating system such as Debian. Windows is proprietary, there is no hope for privacy there.
Device permissions? That’s not the issue. I think people just lack software knowledge and should learn the difference between proprietary software and Libre software.
If people understood how to check the software license and determine if it’s a free software license, that would cover almost everything they need to do to help us stop having this problem with picking the wrong software.
