  • At the place I work at, we all are given Azure Virtual Desktops, which we use for everything. I'm working remotely from another country, so there is damned input lag too. Copy/paste, any data transfer is disabled too.

    The worst part is we need to use "Remote Desktop" app to connect to our VMs, and it is available for EVERY platform except linux. Like they got browser client, windows, mac os, android, iOS. BUT NOT FOR LINUX. So I use VirtualBox to open windows machine, and use that to connect to VM.

    This is sad :(

  • This is such a bummer. Recently one of my friends started considering iPhone just because of this blue/green issue. I hate how big corps are trying their best to f*ck their users

  • exactly. We are 6 guys, me and one other friend tried a lot, but just couldn't :/

  • Yep I know the GrapheneOS. My plan is to use my phone for a bit (it is not that cheap in Azerbaijan 😄 ) and then switch to graphene.

    Well, good luck to both of us!

  • Holy shit you did it! Congrats man..

    I couldn't do the transition to Signal because of the family/friends. And the LineageOS thing, I couldn't do that to my brand new Pixel7, lol. But others are pretty much done at this point. Thanks for PrivacyGuides, didn't know that!

  • Wow I didn't know this. Thanks a lot!

  • It has ability to disable, but actually disabling all of them is not recommended at all. Recommended settings for this script delays security updates by 2 weeks and feature updates by 2 year

  • Yes these kind of distributions of windows are extremely suspicious. I once saw one that added additional stuff to ISO other than stuff from guthub repo.

  • The developer is quite transparent about all the possible effects of this script. It tweaks to a point that you'll still receive security updates, and feature updates are a bit delayed.

  • Hi. Thanks a lot for your kind words and enthusiasm!

    We are currently thinking about this "movement" and trying to plan stuff. If you have something on your mind, you are more than welcomed to create an issue.

    I really appreciate your passion on this matter, and will kindly contact you after we structure stuff on our minds. Cheers!

  • This is a nice analogy. Thanks 👍

  • I understand what glad_cat means, and they are kinda correct. On the other hand, FF (at least, for now) won't be implementing this change.

  • Can you please specify which ones do you mean?

  • Thanks for pointing out. Will definitely consider your feedback!

  • Yes, exactly. They already know that fines for monopoly is more expensive that half a billion to spare to mozilla, lol.

    Such a bad time to live.

    I only have hope to Ladybird 🐞 now 🥺

  • Unfortunately, there are the ame stuff about Firefox too. Mozilla Foundation is such a corrupt organization with extreme shady finances.

    Foundation's main income is royalties by google: 567M per year.

    Donations: 7M (which almost goes to the CEO's bonuses)

    the CEO gets 700K salary and 4.6M bonuses. Lmao.

    I'd suggest, using Firefox but not donating to them.

  • I never understand why people prefer Vivaldi over, let's say, Chrome. I personally use FF with hardened security, but if I had no chance, I'd rather give my data to Google, not a browser company with an unknown business model and bloat.

    Vivaldi is weird, I once talked with their CEO over on Mastodon (they are active there, which is a good sign, probably), it still felt shady, sadly.

  • Yes. It totally has to come from the government. No way companies alone will do any good for their employees and respect their time.

    Take the 6 or 8 can holder plastic thingy (that turtles and fishes always get tangled up). In the EU, it is forbidden to use them. So, companies like Coca cola don't implement them. But in the US, there are no laws stating that, so they continue selling with that shit.

    Without the government backing them, employees are just numbers in sheets for companies. Nothing more.

  • Yes, it is simplified. But basically this is what happens every time. The pattern is the same.

  • You are correct, but unfortunately, this is what happens in reality.
