Time for this week's and News video!

In this one, we have Linux Mint deciding to hide unverified Flatpaks by default (but not apps from the repos, also unofficial?), we have KDE asking you to help them define their goals for the next 2 years, and we have the atrocious Windows recall being already hacked, and Microsoft backing down, making it disabled by default, and adding some security layers (because unencrypted databases are rarely a good idea)

linuxjj,

@thelinuxEXP recall hacked. I saw that video and couldn't stop laughing.

Comment below 🙂

linuxjj,

@itsfoss got my wife away from Windows and into Fedora Gnome. The end.

linuxjj,

@FartsWithAnAccent @ylai @Veraxus Asus has been enshitifying for a couple of years now. I used to get their ROG phones year after year, until they sent me the last one without the Kunai cover (I bought the phone with the controller) and when I reached out to them they wanted me to send the whole thing back, phone and all, to determine if they would send it back with the cover to me. Beyond ridiculous. Returned it, got a refund, never looked back.

linuxjj,

@FartsWithAnAccent @ylai @Veraxus yeah. Them and Netgear are 2 companies I used to love and now I wouldn't use their products if they paid me to use them.

linuxjj,

@TCB13 @inasaba not entirely accurate. CalyxOS, but albeit following a different process, also allows for degoogling and relocking the bootloader.

Nextcloud Hub 8 leverages the power of AI to offer some really cool features!

linuxjj,

@itsfoss @nextcloud they should be fixing the crappy speed of the web interface instead of hyping all this AI BS.

It's April already - time to check up on your 💪

In case it was choosing over Big Tech, here's what the Tuta community is recommending! 🔒

What are your favorite apps ⁉️

linuxjj,

@Tutanota Librewolf with my own instance of SearX. Tuta and Proton for mail. Yubico and Aegis for MFA. Self-hosted Joplin for notes (can't imagine living without that, and still trying to figure out how I did before I knew about it).

Messaging over session only, and Molly for what few Normies I haven't been able to convert (Signal).

A Wayland-only future lies ahead for Fedora.

https://news.itsfoss.com/fedora-41-to-drop-xorg/

linuxjj,

@itsfoss this needs to happen, and the sooner the better. We've been "nurturing" 40 years old tech with x11, pushing it for something it was not designed to do. Now that maintainers are staring to move exclusively to the new stuff, we should see expedited improvements.

linuxjj,

@gamingonlinux Fedora is throwing errors every time I try to apt-get. You have to fix that, or I will Arch you.

This year, democracy is on the ballot. Over 60 countries — home to half the globe’s population — will hold national elections in 2024.

To ensure that everyone has access to accurate information before they cast their vote, we’ll offer free servers in countries with a history of or political interference in the weeks leading up to the elections:
https://protonvpn.com/blog/free-servers-before-elections

The servers will be switched from paid to free for the period of the election.

linuxjj,

@protonvpn I just love how you are constantly disrupting your industry. We need more companies like Proton in our lives.

Share them 🙂

linuxjj,

@itsfoss run my software install script, then a separate copy/paste from my Joplin to install all flatpaks. OhMyZsh and ready to rumble.
Ah, and replace my Vivaldi profile with the one I always have saved.

Well, Dune 2 is, like the first one, an absolute masterpiece. Almost completely faithful to the book, magnificent visuals and music, great acting, powerful scenes.

Best SF movie I’ve watched on a long while!

linuxjj,

@thelinuxEXP thanks for this man. I was blown away by the first one. I'll see if I can watch it this weekend.

linuxjj,

@psyc @ylai finally.

linuxjj,

@br00t4c now they want to solve everything with technology that has not been properly tested and designed. This just keep getting worse by the minute.

Open Letter to Tim Cook: Sabotaging Web Apps is Indefensible

🔨 Apple breaking EU Web Apps in < 7 days
😢 Many companies will be bankrupted / severely hurt
🌎 This does global damage to the web

@owa I didn't sign but boosted and shared with everyone I know, mainly because I could not care less about Apple products. I've avoided them for over 10 years now, and could not be happier. Apple died the day Steve Jobs went away.

linuxjj,

@niavy @jeffowski here's the situation. The Old Testament does prohibit these (every single one of them).
Now, the new testament does not forbid eating whatever (except blood), or selling land. It does look down on charging interest. This is why I fully agree with @jeffowski . The new testament, which is what Christians are supposed to follow, instructs us to LOVE EVERYONE the same. But TOO many so-called Christians display hate and intolerance towards many segregated groups. See the problem?

linuxjj,

@niavy @jeffowski agreed. Now, where does it say to hate them or be intolerant towards them? The same new testament says to LOVE everyone, to live in peace with everyone:

1 John 4:7 Dear friends, let us love one another, for love comes from God. Everyone who loves has been born of God and knows God.

Hebrews 12:14 Make every effort to live in peace with everyone and to be holy; without holiness no one will see the Lord.

There is NO JUSTIFICATION to not love everyone or to be intolerant.

linuxjj,

@niavy @jeffowski i commend you. It blows my mind how so many people call themselves Christians but choose to follow the opposite route and vex others.
I believe it has a lot to do with pride coming from a false sense of self worth, which makes them think they're better than others because they sit in a temple on Sunday for an hour or so.
Two faced is what they are. Worshiping God inside the temple, and attacking His creation outside.

linuxjj,

@niavy @jeffowski dude, can't you see that's exactly what he wants, to get to you so that you reply in a way that he can point his finger at you? Dont give him the satisfaction. We know who we are, we know who we serve, and more importantly, our God knows. I mean, really, how does that affect us? For anything to damage us, even if from someone who chooses to not believe in God, God still needs to give his permission or it doesn't happen.

linuxjj,

@jeffowski @niavy I'm honestly curious. @niavy and I have not once insulted you, or anyone else for that matter. We've expressed our opinions and beliefs in a very respectful, and even somewhat comical manner. Think about it, other than bias, what possible reason could you really have to vex any of us? Your bad experience with other people that belong to one religion or another? I've nothing against you, really, and you have no reason to have anything against us, since you don't know us.

linuxjj,

@jeffowski @niavy how is this different to how racists and homophobis behave?

linuxjj,

@jeffowski @niavy @goinfawr let's get this out of the way: good Christians don't exist. Different types of Christians? Absolutely. I never claimed to be good. I'm full of flaws. Do I visit the same temples? Evidently. Do I follow everything they say (leadership or otherwise)? Nope. I'm considered a revel among my congregation, because if I disagree with something, I just won't do it, period. Again man, I've nothing against you, and all you have against me is that I'm a christian.
