  • For me, privacy in digital world is pratical of self awareness. You do everything cautiously (means constant effort like you said), aware and take care about all technique and information gathering about us from big corps to not let them run free unconsciously in our mind, have self esteem to control what we can control so we’re not overboarded by information overload, regain ourselves as full human beings with reason “there’s a thing I need to hide” that keep us sanity hygiene, and deep thought about every platform we used + calculate the impact from that.

    Everything what we carefully plan will not according to that in digital or real world forever, and that’s how this world works. But as an individual and human beings, we have a choice on what we stand for. The word “Privacy” for me is just a pop culture in digital world after whistleblowers become trend (Julian Assange and Edward Snowden case for example). But essentially, “Privacy” is our human rights and “self defense mechanism” as a total individual to stand for our rights when some group with scale of power using that position only for their own good rather than for the good of masses.

    There’s a distinction between “for own good and for the good of masses” that basically return on how we perceives our own needs to not over-have something that only can controlled by self awareness and self control according from life experience and the knowledge we have. By means, regain our privacy is to regain our human rights.





  • The only trade off here is that read/write operations are going to be throttled

    I agree with this, definitely noticeable with FD and maybe the better solution imo is buy SSD SATA 128gb, installed Ventoy on that, move all your ISO linux to Ventoy, and you can boot all Linux in one page without any flashing one by one again.

    Very convinient, less effort, and more flexible according to your needs in instant. Start with FD 64gb is fine (as I started from that too), but in the end, I need to buy external SSD for not compromise the speed and storage (minus the size though than FD)…



  • Yesss… satisfied than what I expected :D

    So I still need Beaglebone Black, connect it with x86 based laptop, and run the script on x86 laptop right? As the standard requirement for L-booting I read in official guide…

    Gladly, I don’t have and don’t wanna buy RasPi because the price is insane in my country (Indonesian), but other peripherals like BB are still on normal price. Have you any recommended using other alternatives than Beaglebone Black? :)

    I’m sorry to ask many noob questions to you, because I just found the one who make this possibly happen as I’m starting losing hope for tinkering this, and don’t wanna risk to brick that too cause my poor knowledge and preparing things. Still… bless you sir…


  • 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…











  • 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…
