Why would you need Tailscale for syncthing?

I don’t use browser extensions and I manually copy/paste my passwords to fill in entries.

On most systems copy pasting is heavily insecure since a lot of processes have access to the clipboard. autotype and thinga like browser extensions are considered more secure.

Either you are heavily misinformed about how difficult arch is, or you lack any confidence intervals in your ‘Linux skill’.

Choose the system you want to achieve, follow the wiki and choose the software you want to use using it and you are good to go, it really is not that hard. You can always use archinstall.

Tbf, winget is a god sent and works surprisingly well, took them what? 30 years to get it done?!

Just today I logged into a Workstation at work, just to see 2 versions of Teams being auto launched. And no, no one installed 2 Versions, it was Windows.

Yep. The difference is simply put just ppl are used to the quirks on Windows but not on Linux.

Not necessarily traffic. Often download sites use mirrors to serve you the download. Sometimes those links are provided via a CDN which can be forced to comply to LEA or some other static hosted mirrors which are often hosted by others. The second part is more likely on community managed software.

So either traffic or the server/CDN behind the link. Happened before.

Was not aware ECH was actually in TLS 1.3 thanks for that. But yes it will take a long time for widespread adoption.

Actually no. The SNI is still not encrypted. So every site you are visiting can still be sniffed.

Not really how patents work. It does not matter if the code is open or not, others are still not allowed to use patented code elsewhere or at least not commercially. (Not talking about the legitimacy of software patents)

If I decide to put up with this type of attitude

Your the one insulting me.

Would you say pointing the finger at the linux devs and maintainers saying they should work harder does improve anything and drives ppl to volunteer?

Maybe you should take a read on Wikipedia on what gatekeeping is before you insult me. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gatekeeping_(communication)

OC stated those things ‘should be worked on’. What else is it than blaming ppl?

Yes things could be better, but saying things should be better while sitting on their ass and doing nothing is just not correct to say. If you say it should be better then you should take part in it getting better.

I encountered it now multiple times that new TLD are discriminated against. They are more likely to get blocked. This applies not only to Mails also to any more controlled network like free wifi networks or business networks.

Go with a classic .com .net .org or a country TLD if you can.

Btw, also applies to registrations on online services.

I absolutely disagree with you. If a manufacturer does not care about Linux support, it’s on the manufacturer. Do not blame the thousands of unpaid volunteers and a few paid ppl for not supporting a specific BT chip or controller or whatever.

The signing issue is so on OP cause disabling secure boot or using a supported distro like ubuntu could have fixed that, and yes you can run Windows 11 with Linux dual boot without secure boot.

Basically everything you stated, Bluetooth, Controller and GPU is hardware.

Your experience is probably different since you still think and act like you use windows. This is normal. When you are used to something and then switch to something that works differently you will run into problems.

Looks like you used hardware that was designed for windows and are blaming it now on Linux.

I am not understanding the issue you have that requires signing of drivers.

Yes some Bluetooth devices lack the support from the manufacturer’s for Linux, the Controllers i have used work great, at least for my needs.

Controllers have better support Linux for ages. Not understanding the issue here either.

Troubleshooting on Windows sucks at least to the same degree. The same non specific error message gets you 50 possible solutions.

No need to announce your departure.

So I’d like to split my passwords file into multiple “files”, where the unimportant logins are permanently unlocked for convenience, while the more sensitive login credentials remain encrypted until I actually need them.

And how should that protect you against an attack that has compromised your system? If the system is compromised, then an additional lock does not hinder the attacker to wait until you open it.

The tweet he commented on was indeed a nice idea, but a CEO should have more foresight that the things Trump stated in it would not be true. When you look at it now, it looks like it was more or less a threat that led to a closer relationship between “tech bros” and the current administration instead of the “take down” of them.
