I did quite some reading in my time, as I mentioned. The methods you are describing are riddled with ifs and buts. The reality is that even online systems arent hacked if they dont have obvious flaws like passwords in root ssh. on the other hand tools like john the ripper can break each and every common encryption given the right circumstances. Its no difference. Its all just marketing.

I‘m not that bad at rhetoric either but I avoid it when I can.

Your argument is empty. Privilege escalation attacks are plain old cves that get found, evaluated and fixed. You need access to the phone, mostly in an unlocked state to get anything to work like that, same as with a computer.

I know a couple of pen testers and I would definitely know if there were large differences between operating systems securitywise.

You do realize that this is bullshit, right?

Its typical fearmongering (in fact the same article too) that I have been sent a ton of times by low tech users that fanboy for graphene.

There is no such thing as „physical port attacks“. It also works very different on phones then on computers. You can for example use i2c on an iphone to crack it open which somewhat straightforward to do but still has zero implications for daily use. The linux apps are desktop apps and as such dont have any chance to get through all of the open source community‘s eyes undetected.

Its a completely backwards take that assumes using bad faith software written in the dark by proprietary vendors which just isnt real.

Feel free to elaborate. Everything I have read over my life (couple thousand pages I guess) suggestd that linux can be a lot more secure than windows and ios.

Because android. PostmarketOS is linux (based on alpine linux)

If you would read the book, they explain the point you are trying to make in the first couple of pages.

You have your opinion of how stuff should be done. But that doesnt mean everyone else needs to do it your way. Thats how we got into this mess.

Also very good analogy in the book: if you vote or not is your decision, plain and simple. But voting takes a couple minutes on average. If you want change, you can hang up a poster or print some flyers or take a megaphone, depending on what you‘re comfortable with.

I come from a country where people used to be put in gas chambers because the responsibility didnt reach far enough down and right now, that same country is going that exact route again.

Great way to rid yourself of responsibility. Sadly, nothing ever got achieved by being smart. Doing things is what is necessary.

Therefore yes, billionaires must go, of course. But they wont go until we take action. So my point still stands. Read the book.

How about doing something instead of talking? https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/crimethinc-recipes-for-disaster

Whatever idea you have to phones, you‘re wrong. They can easily make 5 plus years if you treat them right. The more problematic part is daily use and battery degradation/repair.

But google sucks anyway so I‘ll stay with postmarketOS on my oneplus6 and wait for my camera to come to life some day (hopefully).

Damn thats a depressing read. Why isnt this shit illegal?

Very interesting! Thanks for the heads up. I didnt know that. 7 years ago, they already used wine for that. https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44014390/how-to-generate-a-windows-executable-using-pyinstaller-on-linux#45065125

If all else fails you could also use a vm. Thats probably less dangerous than dual booting because of windows not playing nice with grub.

Why windows for pyinstaller and compiling?

The interesting thing is how people find ways around my politics filter all the time by using abbreviations. Is there no way to keep politics to the politics channels folks?

I have recently switched a second tv to kodi and I‘m very happy. I had an appletv but it is just so limited and reminds me that I dont really own that device. Now I can play retro games, watch all my movies, listen to music and see my favorite pictures without having to use apples ecosystem or paing them for being able to use my device.

Pure principle is the answer. People who buy a game should be able to play the game as long as they wish, sell it, give it their grandkids for all I care.

The problem with your argument is „doesnt affect me, wont bother“.

Think of anything you like or even love. Now think of it being taken away, because someone else doesnt care about it. You think thats fair?

Hi friend! Good to see this insightful comment comes from you.

Iirc there should be a way to complain to the authorities about this, right?

Well, reading up on the modlog, the things that were removed were riddled with rhetoric. Try to leave the judgement out of your words and you‘ll probably have a better time.

Even the post you made to complain about it is problematic. Not everyone here is a native english speaker. Even those might not have the will to read through your four line long sentence.

Also, me joining the apple fanbois club and telling them why apple is not great just does not make sense. Same goes for veganism or any other thing people like. Critical discussions are for the broader fields, not the „fan convention“.

I didnt even know about this one. Pretty awesome. Is it a drop in replacement for jellyfin and plex or different?

I dont know about caddy but nginx proxy manager does this very well. Also, if running in docker, you can expose the port that runs ssh for forgejo und a different port than the host machine‘s (eg 2222). In that case you just put the remote in with the port and call it a day.
