GrapheneOS is the only one I’ve used since the bad old days of trying random things posted on forums, and it’s excellent.

Grammar is for sheeps.

Can’t tell if joke.

Magic Earth is good but it’s proprietary and some features require a subscription. I also vote for CoMaps.

The other part is that DHH has a reputation as a fascist. The fact that he, of all people, is receiving a ton of money for his half-assed Linux distro makes a lot of people uncomfortable.

You’d have to test whether the TV’s firmware allows it to run without the microphone or WiFi. Some manufacturers will anticipate people trying to control their own tech and shut their device down at any sign of tampering.

It will only have an effect if the fines threaten their profits, and that seems unlikely.

It says something about our current world that, having read the headline and not knowing who this guy is, I expected him to a booster of both AI and Nazism. It’s a relief to find he means this as a criticism.

Almost everything just works after installing sandboxed Google Play Services. For a few apps you have to tweak a setting to turn off some of GrapheneOS’s exploit protections. But I’ve found very few that refuse to run, and nothing indispensable. If you don’t like your main profile having Play Services you can set them up under a second profile or a private area and keep the apps that use them away from your main profile.

i2p is good. I also have my eye on Reticulum.

But they saved themselves a whopping $10,000. It’s not like AMD has that kind of money to throw around.

Yes you almost certainly can. It’s less painful than you might imagine. I used Gmail since it was launched, and now that account is unused except for a couple of mailing lists I don’t care about. It just takes a bit of time, but you can do it bit by bit.

The Liberals are determined to turn Canada into a surveillance state and share data with other “eyes” countries including the USA. This government is not looking to protect Canadians. And they haven’t taken the objections on board, as evidenced by their statements that they need to “define” encryption, and that “the new amendments will aim to align the bill’s encryption provisions with US counterparts.” How can you look at all the history of the USA spying on its own citizens and think “Yep, Canada should copy that”? Not a government that’s serving Canadians.

Mine (Liberal) sent a form letter that stated strong support for it and claimed (falsely) that this just brings Canada into line with what its allies have already done.

Rent-seeking has entirely replaced innovation in modern capitalism.

Why is it a win, and for whom?

Possibly both. Signal will want to protect themselves legally.
