No, that wasn’t the claim. Phone numbers are used for sign up, but the post’s OP was talking about messaging meta data. Messaging meta data doesn’t go through your carrier and is encrypted.

If you check the publication of signal’s cases where they had to hand out data, and in reverse the FBI leak that listed analysis of all messenger apps by what data they were able to acquire in most cases, Signal came out as one of the top options.

When did Proton show themselves fed-friendly? Also what “fed” are we talking about? The Swiss Federation?

Proton is Swiss.

What does that have to do with Signal?

And the chainsaw drone, the bomb drone, the control drone…

Hey, I’m in the same boat. Gigabyte GTX 670. Wayland was a sluggish mess, and same goes for nouveau with X11.

I bit the bullet after eight months of running Arch like this, and experimenting around with newer iGPUs in laptops, and bought a new radeon finally. Time to retire this ancient piece of tech.

Burnt into the old LCD screen.

As a noobie, I’ve just downloaded a couple things I wanted that were also free leech coincidentally and then just kept seeding them. And now I have 515GB up and 87GB down. I know it’s nothing excessive, but I’m really not a hard core torrent user. I just fill in gaps mostly, where I was not able to catch something in the theatre or on a stream.

Wait… wait… So your average Facebook mom who has a laptop lying around that they use to watch their series in the evening, but will have to chuck it due to EOL of win10 and no win11 support, will not be able to adopt mint after she has someone install it for her, because you couldn’t get a hyperspecific app to run on it? (Steam is hyperspecific in the grand scheme of things).

What a hyperbole.

I’ve fixed it by axing my bitlocker encrypted partition that contained my Pro version OS and just installed arch.

I’ve actually subscribed to premium. YouTube + YT Music.

Apple is not that strong in the overlaying ads over everything department though.

Cause of death: Linux Mint allergy.

They can, but they are not coming out alive.

Meaning they will have to outlive CECOT.

Can you elaborate on this? Just In Time delivery? Is this a US thing?

Edit: okay, I looked it up and I understand it now. The ripple effect already happened though when big box stores told Trump to fuck off with the tariffs, because their shelves are empty.

The Linux community need to figure out a new friendly standard to ensure anti cheat without out needing to act like a backdoor to the root kernel.

I think Valve and Arch are working on that with their collab on the secure signing enclave.

Never heard of this before. They may recommend it, but not require.
