That’s a pretty good answer. I knew Mozilla had bought it, and were operating it as an independent subsidiary. I didn’t know they promised to open-source it over 7 years ago.

Has Mozilla done sometime to deserve this skepticism? They were founded on open-source and AFAIK have continued to support open-source. Mozilla is far from a perfect organization, but if this project was a success I think it would be out of character for them to keep it closed-source.
In case anyone else wants to see it, I’ve even queued up the link https://youtu.be/8CTX8W4UZUA?si=uv_bvwoHD40B0YDJ&t=846
I’d say at least half if those would get them sued for Trademark infringement. Once again, this is AI plagairising, but this time it’s with obviously trademarked names.
I too wish the developer would respond, but I don’t think this is the catastrophe people are making it out to be. One comment seems to explain why these binaries are included:
Because ventoy supports shim, and by extension secure boot, these files needs to come from a signed Linux distro. In this case they are taken from Fedora releases, and OpenSUSE apparently, as they publish shim binaries and grub binaries signed by their certificate.
Almost certainly not, but I’m just trying to point out it’s not a hardware limitation. Though, if it was installed remotely, they would probably have issues printing locally.
You’re not completely wrong, as they also have thin clients which should be technically capable of running a word processor. It’s just a question of whether the prison is going to implement that no/low-cost solution.
Yes, I literally am a government employee, and formerly worked in the military in Radio Comms and IT, often with Top Secret communications and infrastructure . I am intimately familiar with government procedures and limitations.
I never said that end-users would be setting up LibreOffice. I’m just pointing out there’s a low/no-cost solution, and it isn’t a hardware limitation.
The thin clients should be capable of running LibreOffice, or at least running it remotely.
First off, not an officer, a high ranking enlisted(E-8) personal was the culprit.
Typically, anything E-4 or higher is considered a Non-Commisioned Officer.
EDIT further clarification: from my experience in the Canadian Army, what “Officers” means depends on context. Most often (and what [email protected] probably meant) it means just Commissioned Officers. Other times, it’s anyone in leadership, including NCOs.
The Verge’s recommendation of Brother Printers
Yes, they literally wrote that article as a meme. It’s been a joke on the VergeCast for years that their printer recommendation is, “Get the cheapest Brother printer that meets your needs (duplex, scanner, colour, etc). You’ll almost certainly be happy with it.” In your case, even if you don’t want it, you’ll probably get a scanner, but it doesn’t add that much to the price.
And it’s not like it contains any sensitive information. I’m sure all your emails are just friendly correspondence with your pen pal.
Because why not 🙂
Because security.
Great comparison, a dialect used by millions of people to a dead language. It really shows how much you care about the people who speak that dialect…
Ah, see I also think the US system is messed up, but for the opposite reason. The US is one of the few places in the world with elected judges, and most of the rest are political appointments. In the rest of the world, there are non-partisan process to select qualified judges. Political appointments for administrative positions are just bad and contributes to the polarization we see today. With elections, I don’t think the majority of voters are actually researching and assessing these down-ballot races, but just voting along party lines. This means, instead of a (TBF, potentially flawed) non-partisan process, you just have the parties selecting judges, giving political parties even more power.
I’m curious how you’re excited for these judicial reform. IMHO, elected judges are a horrible idea.
And to be honest, I’m not a fan of sources reporting on themselves. Even if I considered this a reputable source (I have no opinion on it either way), I would want a third-party article.
I’m glad to see other people go into Linux for positive reasons instead of just hating Windows. What really got me was Compiz. Initially, it was all the crazy effects like wobbly windows, but soon I realized how much I liked the “Workspace” paradigm and then being able to customize things as much as I wanted. Then, the whole free software thing, distro-hopping, the great communities, etc.
I don’t think I’ve ever had to log into the Google Home app, it just uses the accounts on my phone. Or is this some sort of situation where, “I’m too Android to understand this problem?”
I mean, if that gets people in places if power to think about climate change, I’ll take it!
