Damn, best admin on all fronts.
Keep it up!

MrSoup,

I still don’t get why GNOME moved to RDP instead of sticking with VNC.
Embracing Microsoft technologies to better fit offices?

MrSoup,

I’ve used a bit xrdp and even less vnc. Can you please elaborate why is rdp better?

Good for phones with older versions of Android. I’ve used it and is a lot customizable in gradience and schedule.

Now Android got the built-in “Night Light”. Still not a reason to downvote your suggestion.

MrSoup,

Asking a parrot if its house is safe.

I use DDG, BTW. But searxng is very cool.

MrSoup, (edited )

I don’t use searxng because I’m comfortable with ddg instant answers. We should build an open source alternative like duckduckhack.

Edit: Dunno why people downvoted, but in my opinion having a local js “addon” which for example can convert inch to cm if you search for “2inch in cm” (obviously all should be locally processed) would be very useful.

Is it worth waiting for WhatsApp interoperability anymore ? Is it ever coming ?

I really need to get in contact with some people on WA and have some groups to join and have been waiting for interoperability to get going so I don’t have to use zuck’s app . But the said date march has long passed and I can’t find shit on it or why it didn’t happen anywhere . I have yesterday downloaded the apk from...

MrSoup, (edited )

is there any hidden data collection I should be aware of ?

Aka backdoors.
They played cat and mouse for a while, Facebook (Meta) moving the backdoor and NSO finding it again. I don’t trust their software.

MrSoup,

Farewell.

MrSoup,

What privacy oriented rom do you suggest?

Anyway happy cake day!

MrSoup,

Thanks for the alternatives.

I’m currently using a used ('cause fuck Google, you’re not gettin my money) Pixel phone with GrapheneOS (since my Pinephone stopped turning on) with TrackerControl and InviZible Pro. Is nice having a real clean AOSP rom with privacy/security customization.

GrapheneOS also provide an indeed cool feature: a proxy for Android services provided by Google, like Attestation key provisioning, Widevine provisioning, SUPL and PSDS. Does CalyxOS and/or LineageOS provide something like this?
Thanks in advance.

Vimms Lair is getting removal notices from Nintendo etc. We need someone to help make a rom pack archive can you help? (slrpnk.net)

Vimms lair is starting to remove many roms that are being requested to be removed by Nintendo etc. soon many original roms, hacks, and translations will be lost forever. Can any of you help make archive torrents of roms from vimms lair and cdromance? They have hacks and translations that dont exist elsewhere and will probably be...

MrSoup,

Is there a list of impacted roms?

Seems to be based mostly on Fedora by reading the Readme.

I would like to know if it does use systemd and/or other redhat technologies.

In the readme they mention Qt, does anyone know what DE do they use?

MrSoup,

I know Microsoft gave Gnome a donation of 10.000$ because they use Ubuntu (which use Gnome) and inside the repo (inside SPECS folder) I’ve seen gnome-commons to build gnoem stuff.

But yes, this is probably a server distro without a DE.

MrSoup,

Fedora asks you to enable third party non-foss repos like Steam and Chrome, but still you have to manually enable rpmfusion. Plus idk if new install of Fedora ships codecs pre-installed.

MrSoup, (edited )

Mostly of packages from Fedora is also Flatpaks from Red Hat’s server (not Flathub)

That’s not true. Fedora used to have a Fedora flatpak repo but now they simply ship with flathub enabled by default.

About RPM, I don’t know if Gnome Software Center is able to handle it

Yes, it can

MrSoup, (edited )

I hope they stick with recall and other BS so offices would hopely make the switch to other OSes once W10 will be EOL.

MrSoup, (edited )

Wasn’t talking just about Linux, but any other OS which is not Microsoft. For office stuff even chromeOS is enough really. If they have to change hardware to update Windows they could just go for an alternative for much less. Still this will be the minority of course

MrSoup,

Reject all not essential

MrSoup, (edited )

I use fennec (firefox from f-droid) with uBlock using all the filters, so I get no popups anymore.

Can opt to automatically open links in private navigation too.

MrSoup,

Plus I think there will be a way to disable it (like with local translation we have rn).

MrSoup,

Doesn’t R1 trigger UI tabs?

MrSoup,

Sleek.

MrSoup,

To play online. Damn bastards (PS Plus)
