did you recently install librewolf, and log in to ff sync? librewolf has it by default to delete almost everything when you close it, and sync will make your other browsers do that too.

speaking from first hand experience.

you can disable this in the settings, no need for about:config diving.

true, but I thought it would be important to know the state too

also, the new ToS does not apply for the source code, so forks are relatively safe for now.

relatively, because librewolf is being kept alive by its automated build processes and relatively good maintainability, and what else is there other than the young forks like zen and floorp

Chromium has much worse issues. that engine never really had any advantages in privacy either, on the contrary: uBlock Origin (not lite) has a wiki page on its github repo that talks about some of chromium’s disadvantages for addon capabilities, and that was written with Mv2 in mind.

and that’s just the tip of the iceberg.

a fake address could still be helpful against database leaks, but I think also if the data is just sold. triangulation tells a broad area, at least sub 5G, which is not the best, but technically it is

ok but don’t the available providers vary by state?

that won’t work without telling us your region. the largest part of the world doesn’t even know what is AT&T, let alone ATT

fuck all the bosses that would try to excert control over my phone

Having cameras in the car is extremely valuable

I want zero cameras in my car. Perhaps a low resolution parking camera at the back, but even that can be replaced with proximity sensors.

now we just need to regulate it to ensure the consumer is protected from over-reach.

that will not be effective if it ever happens. how do you even verify that it works the way they say it does?

you don’t need to move to a non-firefox based browser. Honestly what would you move to, chromium?

you may try it if you could use OBS to capture the webcam, and “relay” it with its virtual camera feature.

did you try running zoom and slack in firefox? Personally, I would never run them without the browser’s isolation

I don’t need an LLM on my phone, and most people don’t either. I mean, I’m not an AI addict, but also, these are battery powered devices!

if I want to use an LLM on the go for some reason, I would either run that at home on a computer that was made for performance, or just use the duck.ai site because that’s just fine too.

my phone has 6 GB, and that’s plenty. I have a ton of apps installed, and always running background services like Syncthing.

oh well. Shouldn’t be typing shit when tired

as a european I have no idea what tertiary meaning does “triggered” have

This means that I can’t use the built-in webcam until upstream support for the specific sensor arrives in the kernel.

wouldn’t it suffice to build it from source into a kernel module that you can load? that way you wouldn’t even need to build the kernel. DKMS would help to automate this for kernel updates

Honestly KDE Plasma is pretty good for ne as it is. Sure a few settings here and there but not like with custom styles and scripts and such, so far

if it runs linux distros, that does not mean it can run android

rethink is an app that can do custom DNS setup, VPN client and proxy functionality, and firewall to some extent.

IMO it falls short on RAM (16GB is the new minimum and this phone only has 8)

what the hell. just no. what do you want to run on it, desktop windows with electron apps and dozens of active (not open) browser tabs?

6 GB should be plenty fine.

also,

Of the three main cell network providers in the US, only T-mobile allows full access to all their bands with devices that ship with official unlockable bootloaders.

unlocable, or unlocked?

according to its description it should work by selecting the file through the documents app. Formerly that was always disabled on xiaomi phones on every reboot if you enabled it
