Google having their own proprietary crap embedded in their version doesnt make AOSP not FOSS.

Thats the entirety of the basis for things like GrapheneOS, despite Google gobbling it up.

You said youve tried experimental and normal proton but have you tried protonGE?

Where’d you buy this brand of bait?

Wait whaaaat? I have a helminth charger but I didnt know you could have multiple at a time. How?

Didnt see that one coming. But the ~couple hundred ppm found isnt nearly the 20k ppm found in contact lenses

What do we even do about any of this shit?

I wanted to use Kvaesitso but f-droid has it listed for having proprietary components or depending on proprietary services or something so I got scared. Anyone have any insight as to what that’s about?

Also, another K-9 user :3

Honestly IMO if you have even an inkling that you’ve been got by a virus, nuking from orbit is the only solution.

Grapehene has historically offered extended support, but for the longest support time the pixel 8 isnt a bad option. The 7a is also I think the king of budget phones right now but the 8 is on sale for a few hundred off the last I checked :)

AKA fine me 10 bucks for stealing 5,000 dollars worth of items? Awesome!

I am now also traumatized and left with more questions than I thought possible

Thank you.

What the fuck does any of this even mean

I always love seeing such good integration with a wallpaper like this!

I personally use hop2desk for all of my remote access needs. Works wonderfully on any pc as well as on android! Best part is you dont need to dick with ports or anything like that, just make sure you set a good persistent password and you’re good to go.

Any typical 6Gbps sata SSD will do just fine. Doesnt need to be particularly fast, just so its an SSD.

I disagree that you are inherently in a worse position simply because you dont know enough to take a peek at the code or harden things. I think that again, simply being such a massive project linux gives a trickle down effect to normal users. Even as a normie, you are safer on linux than on windows, full stop. As for github scripts, thats an entirely different subject because yes, open source CAN be dangerous still (just like proprietary can).

You are correct for open source projects with only a few maintainers… But with a project as big as linux, there are SO many people with that “formal education” (which doesnt really even need to be formal) that the amount of eyes on the codebase DOES benefit the normies who dont look at it.

I love my security resting in the hands of a multibillion dollar corp, so that way when they get hacked I get lumped in! So secure!

If this was a real offer i’d actually come to Germany.

My biggest issue with windows is it not telling you the exact reason for some weird behavior, and then making it intentionally difficult to go in and modify/fix it yourself.

Linux might break more often, but when it does I’ve ALWAYS been able to recover or restore it far far easier than I ever could on a windows machine, partially due to the actually helpful error messages.
