smileyhead , to linux in [Feature Request] Vote for a Proton VPN App for Ubuntu Touch on ProtonMail’s UserVoice Forum

Better yet, an adaptive GTK4 app. Hit two birds with one strone.

smileyhead , to piracy in streaming or torrenting today vs. 5 years ago

I still buy DVD and BluRay’s for some reason… Pirate only when I get lazy.

smileyhead , to linux in How do you make Linux more popular?

System76 (a laptop maker “rebrander”) is making their own desktop. Can’t think why ASUS, Lenovo or Dell could not contribute to some desktop or maintain their version.

Windows and MacOS are products. Linux is a technology and common human knowleadge.

It’s not x86 vs ARM problem. But rather vendor problem, how AMD/Intel upstream their Linux support while other do not.

No? Linux – all the benefits why we want Linux = Android.

Try and run Android on your PC for a week and tell me how it went.

Bad examples. Just running some program is not an argument. Even Windows can run most Linux programs in WSL, but does not mean it’s Linux.

smileyhead OP , to asklemmy in Is it possible for devices on an online group chat to toss a coin without trusting each other and the server?

The last player (or server) still can choose a result, because it knows other tosses before making it’s own.

smileyhead OP , to linux in Software for remote desktop with phone confirmation to use on untrusted machines

No, because with remote desktop (GUI or terminal) I would clearly see if something other than my instructions is being done. I would see someone else typing or moving stuff around. With SSH malware on the client device can open second session/tty and do things there or simply write a command very fast and click enter before I can react.

smileyhead , to linux in Every time I search for a USB key, I end up finding the ones flashed with OS ISOs! I don't have a normal key anymore lol

You might want to try Ventoy and have it all on one USB.

smileyhead , to selfhosted in How to sync Akregator across devices?

You can sync their data folders with Syncthing. This is a program that let’s you sync folders on two computers in the background.

But you don’t want to run Akregaotr on both of them at the same time to avoid conflicts, because it is not adopted to be synced. If want program that is made for sync you propably need to selfhost FreshRSS or similar.

smileyhead , to linux in Raspberry Pi Smart TV?

I have Raspberry Pi 4B set up as TV box and for my own media like Kodi or Jellyfin, barely handles 4K but works. And I like how I can sync files or remote control seamlessly because it’s standard Linux not Android.

For mainstream streaming I really discourage form even trying, it’s a mess. If you plan to run any type of DRM media you already are on the lost position and might as well buy cheap Android TV stick for ~30$, because there would be no freedom gain with RPi, just big annoyence.

TLDR:
Linux for own media.
Android for renting.
Raspberry Pi for Linux.
Cheap TV stick/box for Android.

smileyhead , to piracy in Software piracy?

I wouldn’t want to run proprietary software even if it had negative price and the developer paid me.

smileyhead OP , to linux in Can someone explain Universal Blue (and images based on it) to me?

So what I understand uBlue is not to Fedora Atomic as Nobara is to Fedora?

Like, I can install Silverblue and get anything with rpm-ostree, but that is an overlay on the tree (like a git patch) instead of simple changing the files like on regular distro. Because of that swapping base of the tree to new or different version take computing time, so people are free to build custom base to their needs for convenience. And uBlue is a system to build those images easly. Do it get it right? 😅
