WOOOW ✋😃🤚

“I’ll show you a gateway to heaven!” punch

Make sure the “Get the latest updates as soon as they’re available” is off. I think it’s off by default. That setting will reboot your computer no matter what as soon as the update is done installing.

I don’t know of any fiber that the core is 125 microns. Can you link to one? Neither Single Mode nor Multi Mode fiber is that large.

Sure, but the glass core is only 8–9 µm wide, it’s a minuscule amount of glass compared to copper cables so it’s not really worth it to melt it down.

I can say with full confidence this is something you’ll never actually need to worry about. Law enforcement isn’t just going to grab laptops and pull keys. Plus, it’s easier for them to grab the laptop while it’s logged in anyways. 😐

Bro… It’s password mangers all the way down…

No, there are no fees at all. Authentic just means approved device state, which will be defined by the website you go to I believe. So youtube might required many different things in order to be “authentic” like no ad blockers, genuine browser, non-rooted phone, etc., whereas bank-xyz may just check for one thing, like a genuine browser. Also, websites have to enable this on their side, so its not going to be used by default on all websites. The whole thing is crap though, even if only a few websites enable this, it could have huge impacts.

It’s not necessary accurate to say timeshift is filing the drive. All timeshift is doing is the taking and management of snapshots. You could only have timeshift configured to keep 4 hourly snapshots, which wouldn’t reasonably fill a drive. Now if you 6 monthlys configured, sure you could fill up drive no problem since it will take at least 6 months before deleted data is removed.

Really? According to this site they claim that “The Cyber Resilience Act should only apply to free open-source software that is developed or supplied in the course of commercial activity.” While that could be a broad scope, I don’t think it applies to most FOSS. Linux is really the big thing I see it applying to and Linux is very Cyber secure, so I don’t really see issues there.

Are there other parts of the law that ban FOSS? Or is that site too pro EU and glosses over the bad parts?

Still rocking Slackware today via Unraid! 😎
