Technology@lemmy.world•Ubuntu stopped being the lightweight Linux distro, and Linux Mint filled the gap it left behindEnglish
1·8 days agoBy bloat I mean specifically those kde applications and games that almost all beginner friendly distros bundle in.

32·11 days agoHow debian is lightweight ? Isn’t it have too many bloats pre-installed ?
A distro i can build myself is actually lightweight. Like Arch or Void.

1·13 days agoTumbleweed is good but everytime I debloat it via the myrlyn in installation window, it breaks and fail to boot. Have issues with ctrl+alt+f2. No built in recovery tools like fedora or maybe i can’t find it if it’s there.
The packages are updated as a group which means no matter how much i debloat, it will always return. I fear using addlock can cause any dependency issues also.

21·13 days agoNot for modern hardware from my experience. Instead of suggesting one distribution, I would say Debian for some old hardware models and fedora is the sweet spot for modern hardware.

Technology@lemmy.world•German police read Signal, Telegram, WhatsApp messages without breaking encryptionEnglish
4·27 days agoBut with a always on VPN they constantly ask to verify our identity, even with passkey or phone number.
Even when I successfully verify my passkey, they will still sent a SMS code to my recovery number. It’s almost impossible to bypass that step and try another method button redirect again to the same phone verification page. If I didn’t give my number, then this message appears, “there is not enough information to prove this is your account. try again later.”
Maybe VPN is a factor that triggering their security system.

54·27 days agoBecause many services only have SMS as 2FA option. Especially government services.
Also it is impossible to use google without enabling the SMS 2FA option. No matter what, with only 2FA authenticator app or email, they will lock down the account by saying “unable to verify”.

Technology@lemmy.world•Firefox is now the last major browser that still supports uBlock OriginEnglish
11·2 months agoI said these browsers currently allow installing MV2 extensions; I didn’t predict about the future. Ok, ungoogled chromium will remove the flag in the future, and it can also affect helium. But it’s in the future; currently that flag is still there.
Brave is sued for its shady practices, ok! But we are talking about the installation of Manifest V2 extensions in the Chromium-based browsers, which the title explicitly says Firefox is the only browser that now allows you to install ublock origin, which is misleading. Brave still supports ublock origin, no matter if someone hates the browser or someone found it self-hosted.
So what do you guys find bad about me mentioning Brave? Also please mention a word: I’m saying these browsers are going to support MV2 extensions (ublock origin) forever.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•I can't believe this is the only comm that will not throw a hissy fit about this.
4·2 months agoYeah. But mostly it’s just a scam or low quality products, treatments. Thousands of government hospitals in india doesn’t have any facilities at all. Private hospitals are working to harvest money as much as possible. Even in government hospitals patients have to sleep in floor.
Also most of the health care products available in markets are not so healthy or even original products at all. People pay to buy things that destroy their health because of no other way.
They are saying india is improving by hiding all these ugly facts. No matter which party currently ruling india, every government is heavy trying to act like they don’t see these at all. They stole their own people.
Btw, it’s really not so proud to say an indian. Never has been. 🫥
(Nowadays india censors alot of the web and force other country based services too to moderate some contents on social media. So am a little bit worried that my account will be banned or comment deleted for saying these even though india have no control over lemmy or this instance. If this will be considered as spreading hate speech about india or then government, then it’s not. Everything am said is just truth. As an india i experienced it alot and it’s so disturbing than it looks.)
