Google Photos/Gmail AI data removal

Hello, with the new AI features being added into Googles services I was thinking of maybe starting a thread about how to remove data from the affected services. I feel like simply deleting my photos from Google Photos most likely wouldn’t be enough of a measure to ensure my images does not get affected or used in these AI...

Little help here linux guys? Trying to figure out what distro to use

Yeah. It’s another one of these. But! Here me out! So I have some experience using Linux. Run some VMs for services I run in my home, I switched my surface book 3 (funnily enough) to ubuntu for my work computer as I was getting more and more frustrated by windows 11 and it turned out really good. Was able to completely get off...

Epzillon,

Once again for gaming I’ll vouch for Nobara, not because I’ve tried too much else but everything just worked out of the box. No monitor issues, no driver problems, fixes, patches and tweaks pre-applied. Just all around a good experience.

I fucking wish Through the Gorge actually became I real game, I am so sad it was just another Kickstarter scam.

For anyone who wants the origin:

This came from a Facebook meme page titled “Welcome to my meme page” with 330k likes which posted general memes and images in this format. A Kickstarter was launched by “Brother Abernathy” to make it into an actual game titled “Through the Gorge”. The creator claimed to have a team working on it and posted some updates on the Kickstarter page but the updates became more and more scarce over time. Eventually he stopped posting and left the Kickstarter page up with the fans wondering what was going on.

I don’t know about the specifics but went back in every now and then to check in on the progress.

The Kickstarter made $18,415 dollars with nothing being delivered to the backers.

Epzillon,

See my other comment :)

Epzillon,

Isn’t that from 1991 while the quote is from 1995? If we’re nitpicking maybe we shouldn’t time travel 🤓

Epzillon,

Been using Mullvad for over 10 years, first through my dads account and recently bought my own subscription for a year. Very respectable people and a great service. I recommend this to anyone looking for a VPN.

Epzillon,

Thank you very much. The DM setting where shuffled a bit in Plasma 6, but I managed to find it under SDDM > Behaviour.

This is fine for my use case. I don run wifi on my gaming rig but I guess I’ll see if any other things prompt me for password after logging in next time.

Edit: Nope, I have no clue what is even possibly stored in Kwallet, if anything, but it still pops up and requests password. Ironically i went from typing my password 2 times to 3 times by enabling auto-login. I know have to unlock the keyring once I login, and then unlock Kwallet once I try to launch Discord. We love it.

Epzillon,

No, auto-unencrypting sounds like it would defeat the entire point of an encrypted drive to begin with. I’m only using auto login.

Epzillon,

This is a unique and pretty cool solution. I might look into it if I have issues with auto-login 👍

Epzillon,

I’ve been using Nobara for some time and it’s amazing. Nice installer and gets all drivers and fixed applied from the get go. Also it is maintained by GloriousEggroll himself.

Epzillon,

Felt good the day I told HR they didnt need to invest any more resources to “help” me. I was done and the boss clearly didnt care about having me around so I told them to fire me.

Epzillon,

What do you mean, I’m a web dev and that looks completely normal.

Epzillon,

Sorry if my irony wasn’t too obvious. It certainly is not supposed to look that way. There are a lot of pages all over the internet that function just as garbage as this, especially on mobile. That’s why I meant it looks “normal” as in not out of the ordinary.

Epzillon,

Thanks, this is basically all I needed to hear. Im gonna try it out immediately.

Epzillon,

Works great so far!

Epzillon,

De-google everything. I use a VPN and run LibreWolf with some plugins like uBlock, uMatrix, deArrow and SponsorBlock. Still haven’t gotten around installing Lineage on my phone to get rid of Google there, but at least I run VPN on my phone at all times aswell.

Now since I use LibreWolf it deletes cookies on every shutdown. This is a bit annoying because I have to log back in every time I visit websites. Therefore I run BitWarden and have also allowed some cookies in website settings.

Its not the best privacy solutions but it’s an easy setup for a lot of profit imo.

Epzillon,

Mullvad VPN :)

Epzillon,

Yeah I am thinking about waiting until I get a new one for that specific reason.

Epzillon,

Almost, this seems to contain the rollback from Android 13 to Android 12. I cant find any article about rolling back 14 to 13.

Epzillon,

It only states that the necessary firmware can be found on the manufacturers page

Epzillon,

The process itself is not hard no. I just could not find the firmware required.

How and where did you find that link?
