  • Slowly picking up the pace now, even if he doesn't realize he left training.

    • Firefox on android for privacy?

  • Fennec works well

  • I get your point in dual boot being less of a headache, but learning some libvirt/qemu and running your own virtual machines is a lot of fun.
    I went for a virtual Fedora Workstation with VFIO and a dummy plug. Then I use Sunshine/Moonlight to stream my gaming session to whichever device I feel like using.

    Anytime I wanna try something I feel might crash my Fedora I simply backup the virtual machine files and go to town on it.
    If I fail I roll back and try again.
    I run my servers the same way, as virtual machines that I can easily backup and experiment with, and I do think it makes learning a lot quicker.

    • Any recommended products for Network Attached Storage?

  • If choosing Synology look into the Plus series (f.e. DS723+) or you end up with ARM CPUs and lose many of Synologys software goodies.
    Their Active Backup for Business software is a nice way to backup the household machines as an example.
    As you enter packages in this list you will see which models are supported:

    • Your Computer Should Say What You Tell It To Say - Google is adding code to Chrome that will send tamper-proof information about your operating system and other software, and share it with websites

  • Of course it does, how else are they gonna make website owners pay for the data access?

  • For a server I would second checking out Debian 12/Bookworm. It has been real solid for me. I run a qemu/kvm/libvirt virtual host and then run my services in virtual Debian servers. Makes them easy to backup and allows me to reboot my Jellyfin server without taking down my Game server and vice versa.
    I guess running a container system would be the modern way of doing the same thing.

  • I imagine we work quite differently then, I couldn't get used to it at all. I'm also one of the odd ones that prefer the trackpoint to the touchpad.

  • Cockpit Web GUI made finding and reading logs, restarting services and so on much easier for me as a beginner:

    If you use the GNOME desktop then the ArcMenu, Dash to Panel and JustPerfection gnome extensions allow you to simulate the Windows workflow. There's also many other extensions as better window tiling, showing status indicator at the bottom panel and so on.

  • Switching to the growth phase companies is one of the few options we have though.
    I'm sure you are right in that after a few years of success the next private company will too enter the money grabbing phase.
    That will open the market up for yet a new contender still in the growth phase.
    Round and round we go.

    • Compact view in Nautilus (Gnome's file manager)

    Jump

  • Nautilus has been simplified to death. Personally I installed Nemo and symlinked it to replace nautilus.

    • The Elder Scrolls Online & Murder by Numbers now free on Epic Games Store

    Jump

  • If you enjoy ESO then the free version is a trap as buying the ESO + expansions pack is much cheaper than buying all the expansions.
    You don't need the expansions to try out the game, nor a sub.

    • Is there any way to have Youtube links open in browser instead of the Youtube app?

    Jump

  • Youtube links open your browser if you uninstall the youtube app using adb

    • de-Googled Fairphone 4 coming to US is rare good tech news for the privacy conscious.

    Jump

  • As I liked the "fair" part of Fairphone I gave them a shot and bought the FP4. I cannot recommend them.

    The camera app sucks, but by grabbing a GCAM APK from xda-developers and using that instead you can get acceptable photo quality.

    Since Android 12 FP4 has a screen brightness bug that makes the phone rather unusable outside on a sunny day. This is the deal breaker as the problem hasn't been solved yet.
