and I'm sure there are many who couldn't care less about the malware running on their windows machine as long as they can browse facebook. What's your point?

So google also sends the contents of my clipboard to their servers when I use their app? Wonderful.

I do. If you moderate your site, you endorse its content and should be held responsible for it (i.e be treated like other publishers). If your laws permit speech you don't like, either fix your laws or fix yourself.

You're not considering foreign operations. If included, I bet the US would be at the forefront.

Sure, but you need a handful of units to evaluate them properly. Availability of units is a huge concern and (imo) the largest barrier to boader adoption of non-x86 servers; ie, no sane person would hedge their operations on a single server

I recently switched all my systems to another desktop environment because an app I needed to run was buggy under gnome and gnome developers in their infinite wisdom decided to remove the setting needed to fix it. Mind you, the setting had e

If you're using desktop ubuntu, you're using snaps. Run `mount` to see which snaps ubunutu has mounted on your system.

Most people are not rejecting snaps as a concept but the way ubuntu decided to implement it (e.g. forced updates, closed back-end, stealth snapd/snap reinstalls, etc).

As a short term solution, you can use netguard and always have it run in lockdown mode. It works on most phones and doesn't require root. You can use it to whitelist app access to the internet (inc. blocking samsung and google play upd

So you're saying that china would be completely within its rights to extradite, prosecute, and punish a US citizen who made fun of their leader on US soil if that citizen ever sets foot in a jurisdiction that has an extradition treaty

The way I read their proposal is them saying: "we're doing this new thing in our network gear. we can either standardize on it or you're going to have to deal with integrating with our proprietary systems yourself." So t

I look for one more thing: 3. What steps the corporation took to prevent this issue from occurring in the future. While a believe that the CEO is sorry, I can't consider the issue resolved without #3.

What about people who bought a low-to-mid range laptop last year? While 8G isn't .5G, it's still low enough that you'd quickly hit swap (a bloated modern browser + multimedia authoring tools) Tracking "current" desk

A good user interface is one you don't realize you're using. KDE is flexible enough to fit many workflows and doesn't (try to) constantly get in your way.

Usually, but they do get into unfortunate accidents from time to time.

Wouldn't using something like tor mitigate the issue of servers seeing IP addresses?

To be completely fair, reading every option under about:preferences is not part of the average user's workflow.

Someone on reddit stated that snapd will update snaps regardless of what value `refresh.metered` holds when updates are postponed long enough. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to verify whether this claim is true or false. Canonical

Will setting `refresh.metered=hold` prevent snap updates indefinitely? Can I mark all my network connections as metered?

I was aware of `motd_news` and disable it on each new install, but I somehow completely missed `apport` and `kerneloops`. Trying to keep up with Canonical's attempts is why I switched all my new systems to Debian. Far more stable and p
