In this case I would download the deb from here (Click on Mantic, and scroll down to files and find your architecture you use and download the file : packages.ubuntu.com/search?keywords=libfreerdp2 and install it with dpkg -i If that installs successfully then continue your upgrade attempt.

Nice. For folks who wouldn’t need a lot of storage space I guess this could make a nice rather low budget Libreboot computer.

What phone should I buy for max 150.- (around 180$) second hand?

e.foundation by means of Murena sells phones with /e/os installed. Cheapest currently at discount about $200 but is out of stock last time I looked. e.foundation did sell refurbished phones (and does ?) but the price were always over $200 I think.

If you’re in the EU you can vote and help to make some of them go away with the coming elections which are pretty soon.

For backup and restore :

• Clonezilla
• Rescuezilla

To move from CentOS to sometimes very similar look at Rocky Linux or Alma Linux. There may even be seamless migration methods for it.

It’s about giving rabbits cancer so we can test new cancer drugs on them. Assuming we make that illegal, how do you propose new cancer treatments should be tested?

I’ve read an interview with a doctor who was outraged that at medical school he learned nothing about food and nutrition. Therefore he decided to go live for more than a year with indigenous people in Africa, and study them, taking blood samples. Conclusion : These people in Africa have no cancer at all but yet they do die (unlike in the West) because of other diseases because of no antibiotics. These people do hunt and with that getting physical exercise so to say. These people also fast sometimes because sometimes they simply have no food. This doctor, back in the West, now talks to his patients and asks them about their bad life style habits and he said that “we” in the West we do too little physical exercise, we eat too much and too often. We have an unhealthy life style. Fasten from time to time is good, it gives the body time to relax. So I would say : How about putting the insane millions spend on the massive medical industry in for example “sugar tax” and informing all people about a more healthy life style. Abolish McDonuts and B*rgerKing and KFC, and learn to not over eat. I’ve read that in the blue zones in Japan people have learned to eat for 80% instead of eating more than that.

That is a question that deserves its own thread. Just today I got again annoyed seeing how often mainstream press is using Twitter tweets and Twitter videos in their articles :( Good thing is that a significant amount of journalists got off Twitter and moved to Mastodon or something else. What does it take to get lots of open source projects, politicians and public services also move away from Twitter ? Should a new non-profit organization be created to promote leaving Twitter and help people choose for the Fediverse ?

Since you mentioned Etherpad-lite :

• hedgedoc.org
• cryptpad.org

With etherpad-lite the default is guest mode and no protection at all (but I’ve seen that with plugins user accounts can be made). With Hedgedoc and Cryptpad user accounts can be made and I think with that “private” protected pads are possible.
