GP:s comment made me curious as well. Usually, if multiple hardware vendors are supported there are separate branches with different maintainers. It doesn't necessarily mean that the main codebase is bloated as a result.

For those that are looking to install GrapheneOS and want to ensure that their banking apps work as intended, here is a curated list of supported apps per country:

Rest assured, he won't get fooled again

For what it's worth, I chuckled at your comment. :-)

Security. The more popular a piece of software gets (including operating systems), it becomes a bigger attack surface for malicious actors to use.

Fundamentally, Windows security is not really that much of a swiss cheese people usually say it is. It's just that more people (researchers and malicious actors alike) are actively looking for vulnerabilities in it.

CPU vulnerability mitigations would typically be distributed with the intel-microcode package for Intel processors on Debian-based distributions, for example.

And QubesOS isnt based on linux kernel. It uses Xen. Linux is used in the Qubes aka VMs.

The dom0 is very much running a Linux kernel, the same way your domU:s are typically running Linux kernels (although you could probably run any kernel in hvm mode).

As an example, here is the documentation on how to manage updates for the dom0 kernel:

Hadn't heard about deSec until now, seems to be run by some cool privacy minded folks in Germany:

I guess you already know about the options, but for others:

Find the cheapest VPS out there and have a Wireguard tunnel between it and your home network. Run ddclient or similar on the VPS in case the public IP changes.

They went crying about WPEngine having found a good business model around Wordpress support, and started sabotaging for them.

Looks like they lost in court a few days ago!

And a trampoline!

In one episode of Kleo, the assassin used home-made TTX in powder form (gathered from a pufferfish) to neutralise a target and claimed they would be feeling pain during the entire time. Made me wonder as well, considering the nervous system gets shutdown I would assume the ability to feel pain also went away?

Comments aren't normally accessible unless you (independently) open and read the source code file as you would with any arbitrary file.

For the same price and power usage as the Pi?

If you're looking for single people, Tinder or Grindr is probably a better place

+1 for Voyager! Writing this comment using it :-)
