Why are the “better people” not advertising as much now? Don’t people understand that advertising is the key to popularity?

Now, Mint should support the need decently enough, although it takes some setup. You can look up for language setup settings, I found that fctix works well nowadays.

My main laptop is on linux, through and through. I just don’t have the courage to talk about transition to Linux with my family…

I am a chicken, I could not make the switch for the home desktop and work computer, so I just downgraded to Windows 11. There are some financial apps that needs switching, damn.

Maybe I could convince people to let me use Linux at work…

Pushing for insecure post-quantum algorithms, that may be secure against quantum computers

Eh, I doubt that is how it works. We do not have quantum computers yet, so how we prove security in quantum settings is by specifying the adversary to have specified quantum capabilities, in addition to classical capabilities. Hence, broken under traditional attack means broken under quantum attack.

You can say that new post-quantum schemes are less verified compared to established classical schemes, but that does not mean classical is necessarily more secure.

Meanwhile I’ve been working hard to stay home in holidays like a degenerate

I thought ZKP were one of the buzzwords, guess it’s something tangible and useful.

News like this gives me intrusive thoughts that Linux might be dying…

My god, the dev really seems to be a bigot, to say the least.

Yay, finally I can upgrade to newer software versions!!!

Agreed, I see no way Linux phones become a viable alternative in the near future. Tbh, it is extraordinary to expect Linux on phones when it only has small adoption in desktop space - how will it be ready for phones, for which no Linux apps have been developed? Coupled with the funding and hardware compatibility, I just don’t see Linux phones.

Do you really think it is feasible to convert people to less convenient alternative? What are you going to do, force them at a gunpoint?

As a user, I can definitely say that GrapheneOS is the single best project in the open source space. 99.99% of stuff works out-of-the-box, with de-facto feature parity. The remaining 0.01% is the one dumb investing app which I can only assume has sneaky spyware on it.

Tbh, AOSP is good enough of a basis. GrapheneOS thrives on it.
