What do you use?

I tried pine phone, but it wasn’t usable as a daily driver.

It’s not me who made the comparison.

Social media is way worse, and it’s not even close.

And who do you think is providing the political capital to push this prosecution?

This is the kind of acquisition where it actually benefits the community with tight integration and more financial support for open development, in the short term.

But once the Arduino community has added real value to Qualcomm, they will have already cycled through multiple executive teams post acquisition, and one of them will inevitably view all investment into Arduino as a loss center.

Then it’s only a matter of time before they paywall hardware functionality and updates behind a subscription, Arduino Pro+++.

I would imagine that for a country that imports so much food, protecting domestic food production is also a serious national security concern.

I couldn’t finish reading the article, the kids sounds like a complete psychopath.

No child deserves life in prison, but that is not someone you want walking the streets.

And the behind the scene stories about the workplace environment at his companies make clear just how absurd that particular line of his is.

Whenever unions, or labor organizing get brought up, he never misses a chance to take some dig at them, including his lie how he’s such a great boss that his employees don’t need a union.

Just like how he’s such a great manufacturer that his backpacks didn’t need an actual warranty.

Linus doesn’t appear to be a terrible person, but I wouldn’t call him a good person either.

Linus is very open about his anti-union and anti-labor views, and I lost count how many times he dropped quick anti-union propaganda lines in his videos.

After it came out that he also ran a knowingly operated a hostile work environment, I unsubscribed and never looked back.

I always chuckle whenever I hear people earnestly recommend Pine Phone, or Librem, to other users as daily drivers.

Tinker? Sure, absolutely. But daily use? lol, no.

I look forward to someday daily driving a purpose built Linux phone, but that day isn’t here, yet.

Until then, deal with Graphene, or get an Android that supports pmOS. Just understand the real security implications and risks associated with the later.

Same company. Same scam/terrible management.

lol. Just lol.

Edit: For those unaware.

“It’s also worth noting that plenty of Purism users have reported that they haven’t received the company’s previous Librem 5 phone, several years after ordering it. That phone first started shipping in 2020, while users report that Purism isn’t honoring refunds for these delayed orders or that the company is dragging its feet in this regard. So if it looks fishy and smells fishy, well, it must be a fish.”

They were lucky enough to have bought houses during the great recession.

Mystery solved.

That’s an incredibly myopic take that confuses correlation with causation.

These moves may benefit Putin, but Russia isn’t the only county to benefit. Infact, Russia is in a historically weak position to fill gaps left by a receding American empire.

I’d wager that China is likely to see much more geopolitical gains because they have the resources and capacity to take advantage of the situation.

I’m not saying Putin won’t benefit, just pointing out how limiting it is to view Trump through a singular lens.

I don’t understand the naysayers here.

This is hilarious. Trump wants to simultaneously expand the American empire, while he dismantles the tools of it that he’s too stupid to understand the importance of.

No matter their mission statement, or any tangible benefits they might have provided, both USAID and VOA, were tools of empire. These aren’t mutually exclusive concepts.

We’re already at least one generation into womb to tomb data collection.

Nah, it looks great to me.

Just yesterday I was watching TV and noticed that it just couldn’t fill that void inside of me, like it usually does, and then I realized that I was experiencing an acute AI deficit.

Don’t worry, I sparked up a quick ChatGPT session to get my AI immersion levels back up, but it sure would have been nice if I could watch TV and meet my body’s AI needs, through a single pane of glass.

Unless it’s for SMTP only, it’s probably a back end sever to some other front facing box, or service, that has IP addresses whitelisted for email.

I’m pretty sure I read one of his comments elsewhere talking about tunneling everything over SSH, so I assume that’s what he meant, but I could be mistaken.

Regardless, using an EOL distro as an internet facing SSH server that’s 8 years behind on SSH updates, is probably a bad idea.

We’re not talking about some punch card COBOL machine he jimmy rigged with network access, it’s an old Debian Linux box with SSH enabled.

It’s not like Metasploit would have a tough time finding unpatched vulnerabilities for it…
