Considering many years have passed I don’t think it’s necessary to use a cutting edge distro anymore, but the reddit thread says something about having to update the BIOS to the latest version.

I’d just like to interject for a moment. What you’re refering to as Bash, does in fact apply to all UNIX-like shells.
No you didn’t. It’s not going anywhere, but it will always be a minority compared to SAAS.
It is. But now I want cooking-related metaphors for the relentless attacks coming in from everywhere, the need for encryption etc. Please.
Looks like it. On Debian, it’s part of the fonts-linuxlibertine package, and Linux Libertine O would be the accompanying serif font. This is how they look together:
Yr is Norwegian, but afaics they’re pretty good with nearby countries, too. It’s a product of their metreological institute, which seems like a good option privacy-wise. Not that such institutes have to be ad or data ming free, but they usually are.
It should come on all weather apps as a sort of health warning:
DONT FORGET TO LOOK OUT THE WINDOW
Meanwhile, Sailfish OS - the successor to Nokia’s fully Linux-based mobile OS - is about to release a relatively beefy device that has it preinstalled.
TBF to OP, the article is pretty critical of the whole grift. If they ever get there at all, it’ll be a pretty basic mid-range phone with an American flag on it, that’s all.
I’d be surprised if even the final assembly in Miami is an actual promise.
I maintain that close to you geographically is better, so I use the services provided by my country’s metereological institute. They also provide human friendly data (much more than the web ui) as json or xml, and I scripted a little app around that. It’s not hard.
Nice, that looks pretty obvious.
In addition to the other reply, you should search around your distro* having problems with (certain) AMD gpus; maybe all you need is a backported kernel.
* I don’t think you ever mentioned. If it’s Ubuntu-based, search for Ubuntu.
Since you specifically mention qtile you should undo your customizations and see if that fixes your problem?
If not, you should look at the journal after reboot:
journalctl -b
But you’ll need to filter it.
Try journalctl -b | grep -v rtkit-daemon, which will remove the masses of entries you bemoaned in another comment (AFAICS all syslog entries should also be in the journal anyhow).
Very important:
Please make note of when the problem happened, and if your journal entries even go that far in time.
Great article, but you could’ve gone deeper into the modern ramifications. I feel you cut that short, just after mentioning the Zuckerborg - there would have been so much more to get into.
You should also have clarified that you’re talking about Linux as a consumer device OS; most of the internet and probably some social media giants run Linux or UNIX-like OSs, too.
And that Linux is not equivalent to FOSS, nor is the EFF.
And a link to that article you’re refering to.
Thanks for pointing that out. However the duopoly OS lump it all together under “Location” and that does involve internetty stuff, too, so bidirectional.
Yes, it’s better to use a phone OS and/or phone hardware that does not do that, or can be relied on that off means off. And yes, even then it’s still possible that firmware blobs do nefarious things.
WRT Mozilla location services: I’m not 100% informed, but there’s yet another alternative. Community-driven iirc.
My bank does not require Google integrity checks. Change your bank?
And yes, cell tower triangulation is always a thing even on dumb phones.
Same for WiFi.
Even on Android/iOS these functionalities have big, friendly on/off switches in the status bar dropdown, but people are lazy.
And GPS (edit: “Location” to be more precise), but it will be harder to convince people to not constantly use it.
Bool me once, shame on thee. Bool me twice, shame on me.
