This really happened?

Done. And be sure to select Denuvo DRM is a deal breaker towards the end!

That’s terrible. Thanks for the link. I knew I was relatively close. Hopefully things get working for the better.

I thought there was a new woman president few months back that got elected and killed 24 hours later or on the same day.

You actually can sharpen ceramic blades but its a pain and their super brittle. But for cutting light tasks their far far superior. I’ve used many of them.

Step harder by Yungeen Ace.

Then perhaps this could be a way for you to lockdown internet traffic to and from your device. Major privacy improvement.

Straight from their site.

NetGuard provides simple and advanced ways to block access to the internet - no root required. Applications and addresses can individually be allowed or denied access to your Wi-Fi and/or mobile connection.

Blocking access to the internet can help:

reduce your data usage save your battery increase your privacy

Edit: Uses the same slot as VPN on a phone. Thus you have one or the other. Not both. PC is different.

Cutoff internet access on all apps that expressly do not need it. Install Netguard or the likes if you don’t used a VPN and see what apps are calling home.

Check out Posteo!

Some bodies ass on the line in a big way on this chain of custody.

I will look into this. Thanks. Rhasspy is super intensive for setup. Such a cool option but too niche currently for my use. EDIT: This is cool. Self hostable here a link for others to check it out. https://sepia-framework.github.io

I looked into Mycroft but sadly they have shutdown is appears. Their lead Dev left and went to work on Home Assistant. I think Home assistant is dominant in this space. But things aren’t refined for plug and play use. Yet! They are making major strides in the space though.

Ahh OK. Thanks for the info. I used flatpak on cinnamon now. I prefer KDE but its just hard to beat Mint.

What is snaps?
