this is one of the reasons why i’ve only purchased systemd w libre/coreboot

i’m aware that it doesn’t completely mitigate it; but it’s the only viable step in the right direction of choices that we’re allowed to have.

i sometimes wish i could go back to buying american, but the likes of system76 have already made their allegiances clear.

came here to say this and it irks me that doing nothing has the same effect as doing something exceptionally well.

i used to have an old brother laser printer that lasted for almost 15 years and the replacement that i got lasted less than 2; it makes me wonder if it was intentional.

the newest device on that list is 5 years old. is this project still active?

i could have used this 10 years ago; but i guess it’s better late than never. lol

i was going to do this, but i ended up just leaving the field; much more efficient this way. lol

are you aware of any articles/documentation that can make a noob aware of how these projects compare to each other?

i’m going to eos on a nothing phone in the near future, but that’s only because i can find step-by-step documentation with exact hardware and eos version on how to do so thanks to Lemmy.

that’s for sure and especially so that the american gov’t is now controlling who can and cannot join the linux kernel developer’s group; it’s easy to see them expend a tiny bit more energy to add people to the watch list

there needs to be a LinuxDays here in the united states.

and all of them are caused by capitalism

if you’re into hacky workarounds like i am; you can use an android as a trackpad.

my home server was also multimedia center as well as one point running kodi & plex and i setup x11vnc on it and an old android phone to act as trackpad so that i can channel surf with the phone that was already in my hand.

honestly it’s a smart move; you’ll be saving yourself the time since you can’t squeeze blood from this stone. lol

i sometimes worry when i’ll pass the threshold of cognitive decline such that these scammers will be able to get anything from me; but then i remember that i have no assets/savings for them to take from me and that i’ll very likely follow in my parent’s & grandparent’s foot steps and be dead before i reach 70 years old y se me pasa.

i tried to get myself banned, but i suspect that i was on there for so long and it would take years for each subreddit to ban me.

also; this implies that the other sites your using are sharing your data with google; which reddit uses heavily.

i couldn’t for some reason.

these 2 are my list as well as “everything everywhere all at once”

i cry every time i see that movie because it hits so close to home for me.

it always felt like there was this anti-capitalist undertones with this show with Conglom-O Corporation and Heffer’s wolf family; i’m glad to know now that there was more to it.

i wash asking you. lol

i was going to get a fairphone, but i think i’m going to get a nothing/cmf phone and start here as well.

later, i’m going to put e/os on it since they have this really nice wiki on how to do so.

how would lineageos be better?
