Video Release: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rol5uGshVCw Audio Release: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/tech-over-tea/episodes/Firefox-And-The-Privacy-Preserving-Ads--Andrew-Moore-e2mo93v npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson To add to this even though modern Chromebooks have some fancy chips to ensure valid firmware, Google straight up doesn't care if you unlock it and some of the documentation for this is on the Chromium docs including a link to the schematics for the cable needed https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromiumos/third_party/hdctools/+/main/docs/ccd.md npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson No matter what warnings are provided there will still be bug reports upstream and some method will need to be in place to deal with them. It's less of a problem for users who actively choose to switch to COSMIC and setup a theme (they will see these warnings) and instead those who are using a distro that ships a heavily modified version out of the box npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson Both are ultimately providing a bad user experience, either they open an issue and it gets auto closed or they open an issue and no one ever deals with it because theming is not a problem upstream wants to deal with. npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson I think it's ok to auto close an issue if a user is using a theme, like it's fine to auto close an issue if they're on a distro that cherry picks untested patches. npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson No it's a suggestion to deal with the problem from the GNOME side not a judgement on the difficulty. Theming isn't going to go away in the rest of ecosystem and as long as there is some mechanism available other desktops and distros will use them. npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson That's a good way too put it npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson FUTO's public stance was much worse previously, at least now they're using a new term so you can easily explain it's something different. My major issues were when they were trying to use the term Open Source and redefine it making things even more confusing. npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson If they don't want to support it that's absolutely fine and they should probably just setup a bot to auto close theming related issues. npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson Well I've cut up all the interesting parts of the System76 call, now to get started on putting it together https://linuxrocks.online/system/media_attachments/files/112/891/517/824/537/367/original/6f326a51b3950dd8.png npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson At this point the FSF has absolutely no teeth left, it's a shell of the organization it once was npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson 100%, I refuse to believe otherwise npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson That's what I said when I first heard it lol npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson LIVE SOON: People always complain about playing Terra in this game but honestly it's not that bad... no really I'm being honest https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ikHG67azzLg npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson It's 3:42am, only a few people can get me to stay up this late for a call lol npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson Building An Exciting Game Loop #Gaming #Podcast https://youtu.be/8mXoMCojbM0 npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson LIVE SOON: It do be the game time again https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g45RnuQTqDU npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson Will Anyone Learn From Crowdstrike's Disaster #Linux #YouTube https://youtu.be/qHBZsGGExTw npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson Boot yes, depending on the model there may be some additional tweaking to do npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson Xubuntu npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson ??? https://linuxrocks.online/system/media_attachments/files/112/878/961/319/862/668/original/4bef3c04b7e6324b.jpg https://linuxrocks.online/system/media_attachments/files/112/878/961/620/241/870/original/2e6dd5f7e7124bf9.jpg npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson People always ask about the anime figures on my shelf, no one ever questions the skull though, why not? https://linuxrocks.online/system/media_attachments/files/112/878/525/066/699/460/original/60709927102c7d0a.jpg npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson Death Of A Legendary Gentoo Linux Based Distro #Linux #YouTube https://youtu.be/yx9BCsXUeZY npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson Those are also customizable, so if you like the the customization of Klassy but also like the KDE buttons you can have both npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson Don't forget that there's no reason you have to build games in Godot, Godot itself is built in Godot, but there's also super cool projects like Pixelorama https://github.com/Orama-Interactive/Pixelorama npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson The Polonium video is going to happen, I get that there are fans of it and they like using Plasma as a base but man, COSMIC really cannot come a second sooner, Polonium is a very rough tiling experience. npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson I think it depends on how you do the opt-in, for Fedora's plan you will be required to actively select whether you want telemetry or not and that gives the devs a chance to explain to the non technical users the value in providing this data. The retina scan was just an example, the point was if you consent do whatever you want. npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson When we talk about telemetry, if it is opt-in and you are fully informed of what data is going to be collected and the implications of that data. For all I care take a retina scan and a DNA sample, if you understand what you're giving up it's your choice to make. npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson We're in 100% agreement there lol npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson As much I like Phoronix to hear about things going on, by often only including a single quote a lot of people just run with that as the entire story. npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson Reader, not recordings, recordings work perfectly npub1eure2874md2gaxjc8fcv7hx89s8y4ex5wtlvly599ez2edxg729s35upha Brodie Robertson You're not going to drag me into this Aral situation, it's not going to happen.
