  • I never thought to get this detail answer from lemmy user. You are real dark magician! Thank you so much.. I just surprised when check my inbox and got this + easy to understand for inexperience like me in Libreboot process. The only info I have right now for L-booting x200s is this. But your tips here are clearly make L-booting x200s looks so easy and make it possible as fast as I can.

    do not compile libreboot with raspberry pi nor any sbc you’re using (use real x86 computer)

    Can you give me an example for what real x86 computer you used or other best option? I'm still confused for the keyword in search engine. Still.. thank you so much for this guidance from my soul. It looks like overreacted, but this little step stone is very important for me to start..

  • I want L-booted my x200s, but the procedure is complex than others. I need to find someone who's expert at soldering first, to not make any mistakes at the mobo. Still in searching, so it's all matter of time..

    Do you have any tips or guide for me to L-booted this piece of art?

  • +1 with Thinkpad any S series. More portable and compact (thanks to the lightweight compensation than other series). Also thinkpoint is the main point of Thinkpad laptop that brings you joy to the fullest on this machine.

  • Wow, thank you for this! AT will become my next PKMS, their features plan are dope and in line with their philosophy about freedom and humanity. Never thought PKMS reach the deep understanding as this..

  • Newsboat are dope enough for my need right now. For nom rss, I think matcha looks similar but more polish and interestingly, Obsidian compatible..

  • Newsboat RSS reader are what I've been looking for!

    • already installed on AntiX,
    • native installation without any requirements,
    • very simple interface,
    • useful keybinding out of the box,
    • easy to configure.

    Thank you for this gem! perfectly fit with my herbsluftWM interface..

  • Great alternative! Mayber I'll used Matcha on my Thinkpad x260 once I try to messing with Obsidian. Thank you..

  • Thank you for this, maybe I will used this for specific task in the future..

  • I used Thunderbird for my Thinkpad x260. But for x200s, TB is too power hungry..

  • Yes, this game was so hella confused for me (8 years old) to understand when I find the game cover is really cool back that day (2002 I think). Gonna play that again for game story..

  • They want us to see our data as a garbage, when in reality, it is not. People tend to look down about behavioural + psychology traces / collective works and thats where manipulations has become more and more invisible to our mind. Yes, we have choices, but have we ever critize that choice for?

  • This is great and most relevant answer from all comment on this topic imo! Viruses are evolve everyday, hacker always find a way to intercept computer that has same framework system.

    QubesOS breaks that framework pattern and make their system more dynamic with VM-ing everything, so the impact of viruses are near-to-zero.

    ++ QubesOS also provide all security enhanced out of the box SO we can enhanced it more with other security tools rather than start from RAW system like majority Linux OS..

  • True encrypted messenger, especially using it on Linux terminal. So many potential..

  • when I was kid and buy new game, if the cover are samurai like character, I will buy it.

  • Because Lemmy top topic before are only talking about Reddit, and people love talk about it since api contro. Now since Reddit hype are down, people start to think how to make Lemmy topic different and somewhat great than on Reddit I think.. So, it takes time to see the average Lemmy users activity..

  • Thank you for correct me, now I get what I need right now from this correction..

  • Unpopular opinion: Antix Linux for workstation, because:

    1. It's Debian
    2. Very lightweight (100mb on RAM)
    3. Live to RAM
    4. Frugal installation
    5. Small size ISO (1gb) with full function utility
    6. Flexibel recovery, from old to modern system
    7. Responsive (no systemd)
    8. Retro-kind WM (icebox-wm), perfectly match on retro system
  • If you read this two news:

    1. Hackers are using leaked NSA hacking tools
    2. GobRAT malware written in Go language targeting Linux routers

    As a REAL case and "proof of theory" example to understand what you said:

    ME therefore disabled, but having security flaws with ancient cpus and no microcode updates

    The end point for me is flashing core/libre boot are more enhance security + privacy because you use BIOS design with less used by majority, so less get impacted by mess vulnerable system from hacker. The impact are mid to low (from the case above), unless you are highly targeted by. For the flaws with microcode updates, is not really easy to break as we think AND if it's already there by IT team backed from government or hacker gang, still its only happen if we highly targeted only. You can check this video (34C3 - Intel ME: Myths and reality) for deep explanation about Intel ME cleaner on Coreboot.

    If yoiu watch Ithaka documentary movie (2021) about Julian Assange father, you can see one moment where Assange's Wife still using Thinkpad x220 as her daily driver for communication. I think such as Julian Assange, where know more about privacy and security system than us because many top experts around him also, have high change that the laptop possibly installed with Libreboot / Coreboot / Wikileaks own BIOS design imo.

    If new high end device like you said, are more secure and private than custom BIOS from old thinkpad, why Julian Assange still using old Thinkpad x220? Of course he can't because highly targeted by government in the world. But why he choose laptop that so old to use and pron to vulnerable? There's a reason for him to choose old thinkpad rather than new one I think. Only from this information, I validate that using core/libre boot can enhance security and privacy our digital system based by reality case, deep explanation standpoint, and used by highest end user in privacy and humanity advocator (Julian Assange).

  • Drives made with SLC flash memory are practically nonexistent. Affordable ones completely so. Times have changed.

    Yes, there are many SSD SLC with afforable price right now too, for example ADATA SU650 I used. The benefit SLC over other types in the video I provide before are after we secure erase our SSD. SLC provide less latency than others, and trim from SSD controller are not enough to clean the data or reduce the latency after using it for long time (based by research in the paper). And from point of security as the main topic in paper, show a good point that SLC give more clean data format than others for privacy minded people (focused on that right now). I'm still searching the latest paper about this topic.. still stuck in this because others not explain well or have proof with research / comparison as this.
