I noped the fuck out of that course. I’m sure it’s super interesting and rewarding, but I just couldn’t take it mentally at the time.

I’m warming up to the idea of using some sort of RDP software. I saw that Anydesk is proprietary, do you have any experience with Rustdesk? I’ll do some research.

Thank you (and everyone else who has responded)!

Sorry.

Where are you installing it for her, PC or router?

Her client will be on her laptop.

What OS is she running?

Windows.

What other remote tools do you have available?

More or less none. Any tools I’d need would have to be set up remotely on her device.

Frankly I’d just use Tailscale.

Yeah, I’m starting to lean towards Tailscale or Netbird.

Thanks.

Something to keep in mind is that Kagi is sponsoring Russia’s war against Ukraine through their business with Yandex.

that push GOS into unsavoury practices.

Can you elaborate on this?

Someone on Reddit made an interesting comment relevant to this discussion:

I also came in here to choose the Culture, although I’d be a human. Drug glands FTW.

What sort of attestation, if any, is required? Play Integrity? If so, alternative operating systems like GrapheneOS won’t work. It’s been a problem with a few implementations so far:

Pretty sure that’s how it is in Sweden too, though I’m not sure if grocery stores have a right to ban you like that. I have a tendency to put stuff in my pocket if I forget to take a basket.

Ah, that’s a shame. Thanks.

That’s really cool!

Syncing is a problem without a seamless solution. The official syncthing app for Android is abandoned and syncthing-fork isn’t trustworthy and feels vibe coded. Nextcloud is way too bloated for simple vault syncing.

I’m personally warming up to the idea of using pass.

Out of curiosity, what services do you use for sharing?

Are you implying that gaming on a 120 Hz 4k OLED TV is somehow bad?

Isn’t SailfishOS proprietary?

GrapheneOS is probably the best choice if you care about privacy nowadays. The only con is it only supports Pixel and future Motorola phones.

If your phone supports something like LineageOS, that’d also be a step up from stock Android or big-tech distributions, although it’s not as good as GrapheneOS.

Yeah, but unfortunately most TVs don’t support DisplayPort. Although that reminds me someone made patches to the Linux kernel to enable 4k@120 Hz through HDMI without color degradation on AMD GPUs. I haven’t heard much about them since they were brought up in media, but if I recall correctly CachyOS included them in their kernel.

Regardless of AI, Heroic is a much better alternative unless you need some niche integration that Lutris provides. The Lutris developer is super stubborn about the most strange stuff, like absolutely refusing to upgrade the runtime of the flatpak because of some obscure controller regression. He’d rather see poor performance with super old mesa libraries and poor security for the majority.

But yeah, the heavy AI usage just makes me even more hesitant to use or recommend Lutris.

Out of curiosity, why foes F-Droid warn about anti-features?
