You got some reasons. But the picture as a whole is different. Many can't make enough money to take care of their loved ones. Many are not lucky to have a grandma that pushed their dad to study. Also one doesn't need to be burned by fire to know it's dangerous.

Does this work?:

Enable it, then set home and work. Then disable it.

Recently, Google shared data about Google Docs which led to an unnecessary arrest.

"Police confirms that Disha was arrested after Google shared details."

Here is something from 2021.

Thanks for explaining. That's unbelievable. That's a really stupid law right? I mean elementary-school-kid-bypassable kinda stupid.

I think Google recently took out the syncing capability from Chromium. Things like that.

Edit: Also the manifest v3 thingy which made Ublock Origin operation restricted, also I think it prevented CNAME uncloaking. Idk whether Google went ahead with manifest v3 though.

Wow that's actually really sad. Imagine that happening to people without backups (means many regular people).

The way I do it is I format the drive on Linux. Then format it as ext4 with LUKS encryption. Were you on Windows?

The thing is even if people don't wanna repair themselves they might wanna change a battery. Or get something minor done cheaply by a 3rd party. But Apple goes so far out of the way to kill third party repair. They even put special screws in their machines to screw you.

Edit: The EU pushed right to repair, right? Now see what Apple did to screw France [1]. Their latest and greatest devices somehow have a repairability score of around 6.5/10. How is it possible?

Then idk what this comment [1] means. Maybe someone could clarify?

Because the direction Chromium is heading is in large part controlled by Google, more than Firefox. Also Chromium still has Google bits, otherwise ungoogled-chromium won't exist right?

Does that measure have an inherent bias? Is it like saying kids with parents that tolerate each other are successful? When they don't tolerate, they separate and are not a two parent household anymore and so don't show up in the measure. Maybe it just means kids in peaceful households fare better?

I usually agree with leftist views and I feel like having both parents is good for the kid. Maybe only fringe leftists believe otherwise. Or maybe it's lacking context, for example the discussion might be about abusive partners, or single people who don't want to marry but want to adopt a kid.

PSA:

pfSense is closed-source [1]. It was discussed last month here on HN [2]. OPNsense is the equivalent FOSS alternative [3].

Edit: Commented something without reading, deleted.

The advantage of POWER9 is fully open firmware and hardware while being really powerful. They won't beat the latest AMD in performance. But AMD can never be open. The RaptorCS products are FSF RYF (respects your freedom) certified.

Some benchmarks from 2019: https://www.phoronix.com/scan.php?page=article&item=rome-pow...

A bit offtopic. All AMD, Intel and ARM processors come with binary blobs that can't be disabled or removed which could potentially control your whole computer (Intel Management Engine, AMD Platform Security Processor).

Really powerful desktop and server-grade processors are available with fully open source firmware and hardware (even fully open BMC). It's not that expensive, comes with PCIe 4.0 and other modern features [1].

They are POWER9 processors, not x86_64. But many software work on it, checkout 'talos-workstation' on IRC to chat with the users [can access IRC through Element Matrix app] - someone is running Android Studio on it (yeah so much for privacy but still).
