What are you talking about? You are digging yourself in a trench against me for some reason and you dig deeper every time. I have no idea what your agenda is, but I am stopping participation in it.

I don't know about you but I have always been a free software advocate, see

But anyway, I'm not interested in whatever this discussion derailed into.

Very disingenuous of you to fight a strawman and proclaim victory by claiming that I said things which I never did. But if that's what floats your boat. But for everyone else, try to find any mention of anti-libre software in the original claim.

My whole point is that you can not point to a 3rd party checking for you and claim that it secure because someone else already checked. And I brought two examples which contradict this claim.

I agree with that.

I don't agree with how it has been presented by the grandparent here as if open source somehow automatically makes it secure.

Yes, that is true, but let's not pretend that just because some one is theoretically able to, that all source code is constantly monitored by 3rd parties.

Yes, but we don't know what we don't know. There are many problems like that in open source too, and even if we can look nobody does.

Therefore I find it problematic to say that just because you use open source programs you're safe like the parent tried to.

For me it's similar, but I don't have D.

This only would work if you check every line of source code, even the dependencies and build chain, and then build it yourself. See xz utils backdoor or heartbleed, etc.

Yeah I agree. I wonder how people make it real 2FA when the 2FA app is on the phone and they also log in in the phone.

I save them in my keepassxc, actually I save the 2fA also there. Once someone gets to my password manager all bets are off.

I'd like to add KdenLive to the Video Editing point.

What's the problem, in China it's illegal to protest against the government too and in Russia against the war. It's just how it is in big countries. /s

You can do that already, I'm doing it very often.

On the Desktop go to reader mode and click the play button.

On Android I use https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.hyperionics.avar just share any website with it and it starts reading it.

We are approaching the use of AI in Firefox — which many, many of you have been asking about

Which one of you was it, who asked for AI in Firefox???

A New Computer with pre installed Linux also has all drivers necessary preinstalled.

For some reason you're suggesting us to believe that your wife and kids do the maintainance of the windows machines like finding GPU driversbut couldn't do it for Linux machines.

I did what the parent waz talking about to 3 children and 2 Seniors and one middle aged guy.

One child complained that he couldn't install windows games his peers were playing but other than that no complains.

I installed Ubuntu on older laptops, made sure everything works. Turned on auto updates and installed VNC server software if help would be necessary.

I also have one person with windows I help remotely.

The only difference for me is that the windows user somehow constantly has some bullshit extensions or something which change the browser behavior.

Practically the only thing those people use is a browser.

Oh and nobody has a discrete graphics card which would require a driver. Each of those laptops worked fine from scratch, no hardware problems.

That would be a really cool addition to immich

Probably, but I'd need to understand the database schema for it. Don't really have time for that.

I just put everyone's first name there as the username for the whole family.
