I've heard that used/refurb Thinkpads are pretty solid for this usecase
maybe the older Frameworks might also be a good option as I've seen the older models go on sale
Macsbooks I'm hesistent to recommend as you'd be SOL for repairs unless you're near a good repairshop like Louis Rossmann but Macs could still be good depending on what sales you find
the closest exp I've had with ARM is Arch Linux on my Raspberry Pi 4 which runs but is definitely hampered on performance and functional apps in comparison to any other laptops
thank you for petting Melon❤️
vetoing this is disappointing to say the least and
it should be the other way around;
users should be asked first if they'd like to opt-in first
PIZZA???????
What in the hell
THAT'S ALLOTTA DAMAGE PIZZA
done
thanks for the heads up!
Hell yeah
power to her!✊
for me I thought it was a smaller cat lying on a bigger cat (with somehow the same color and coat style😂)
looking again 90° counter clockwise it could also look like she's flexing on everyone💪😸
ahhhh thank you😂🤗
the attempted wafting 😂
and Moxxi is very cute🤗❤️
Capitalism: steal first, apologize with no real repurcussions later
FTC's been clapping hard recently for some reason but I ain't complaining🤌
hell yeah!!🤘🔥
that's pretty fucked if true
Nintendo's stagnated and has become a patent troll
as someone that used to be a fan I'm sad as it's hard to be hyped for any of their games when they're widely known for pulling these kinds of scummy tactics time and time again
indies be dammed, it's too much of a risk to make Nintendo-inspired games let alone direct fan-games
fair enough🤗
yup can do!
thank you for the update🤗
don't worry I also saw that lol
Air Canada said on Thursday that the federal Canadian government should be prepared to intervene to prevent a looming pilots' strike that the carrier said could cause disruption for weeks to come.
https://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/air-canada-labour-dispute-1.7321527
Obligatory fuck the CEOs and Shareholders
> "We are bargaining. We are committed to reaching a deal. But we are saying that if that fails, the government should be ready to intervene and avoid the disruption," - Christophe Hennebelle (Air Canada’s vice-president of corporate communications)
this is not what a company that's negotiating in good faith does
---
> NDP won't support interference > > NDP Leader Jagmeet Singh said Thursday morning the party would not support efforts to force pilots back to work. > > "We're going to send a clear message again that we are opposed to Justin Trudeau and the Liberals, or any government, interfering with workers," said Singh.

Encrypted Partition Unlock via Root Unlocking
For context:
I've encrypted the swap partition with:
bash cryptsetup -v luksFormat /dev/${DEVICE} cryptsetup luksOpen /dev/${DEVICE} swap
And what I want is for the user to be able to enter their password only once to decrypt their root partition which would contain a keyfile to then decrypt their swap partition.
Does anyone know if this is possible? Just thought I'd ask to see if anyone's done this already

Where is Naomi Wu?
It was such a cute gadget. A tiny computer, brushed aluminum on the outside, with a decent keyboard (albeit with chicklet keys), a Thinkpad-ish pointing stick that would even take a grippy Thinkpad “cat’s tongue” insert. A fairly fast X86 Intel processor, enough storage, and 8 gigs of memory. And no...

> Archived version > > Naomi Wu has disappeared. Perhaps she has been disappeared. That’s not rare in China. > > [...] > > The proximate cause of her apparent disappearance, as Jackie Singh explains in detail here, was a discovery that Naomi Wu, an experienced coder, had made. It seemed that the cute little cellphone keyboard applications developed by the Chinese company Tencent, and used by just about everyone, were spyware. They could log keystrokes, and did it outside of even very secure applications such as Signal, so things that were sent securely could be “phoned home” by the keyboard app itself. > > It seems, though the evidence is coincidental, that this was one too many cats let out of the bag, and the Chinese communist government of Winnie Xi Pooh acted quickly, with the results (probably understated) in the Tweet quoted above. > > [...] > > The silence has been deafening. People on the internet, especially young, enthusiastic websters, have long been thought unbelievably shallow, in it for whatever they could get out of it, and unwilling to take a stand on something important unless there was profit in it for them. We needn’t think that anymore — now we know it’s true. > > What can be done? [...] Our government won’t lift a finger even for American citizens or very well known Chinese figures trapped under the thumb of the Disney-character’s evil lookalike, or the Uyghurs, unless there’s some political gain to be had, such as with the tattooed LGBT WNBA player who couldn’t be bothered to leave her dope at home during a visit to Russia. > > [...] > > China was afraid that silencing Naomi Wu would make the government there look bad. Let’s prove them right.
