I have no idea how all this will end. However you might want to consider that west has put very little effort into helping Ukraine. Both Russia and the US have not lived up to their obligations. Both guaranteed the intergity of Ukraine by treaty. Russia invaded and the US and the west did not stop it though we could have at any time.

So there is no way the Taliban beat both Russia and the US in Afghanistan?

However when many apps have a permission it becomes meaningless.

The thing about most default configs of any OS is that user storage is largely accessable to all apps. True of Linux, Android. Windows, …

Graphene has options to restrict that but you have to set it up that way. Android also has App sandboxing for app data.

Thinking through the threat model of course is always good as is hardening. All security is porous. Linux is fine generally. If one is exposing services on the public net it is not clear that any OS or software is sufficiently secure, that takes constant effort in terms of monitoring and management.

The primary reason to use Lemmey is decentralization and avoidance of Reddit enshitification. Lot of Lemmey blocks shit show lemmey nodes though I am sure they exist.

Yes good analogy. Just my guess. Been a long time since I actually worked in the field.

There are various designs of backlights. They typically have a stack of loose components in an assembly. By loose I mean not totally fixed but not too free. They have to free float enought that temperature changes do not cause issues. They also have to not stick, warp, or buckle over time. Harder to engineer then you might think.

So consider what might happen if for example the top backlight film might buckle some then stick to the back of the lcd. The film might deform which would change its optical properties. Then later thermal cycling might cause release. It might do same elsewhere.

Not saying this is mechanism, but just example.

Edit: Keep in mind the LCD is glass, and the backlight components are plastic. Very different thermal expansion coefficients. Then add LED or CCFL lighting and you have a big changing heat source. Add on top of that humidity changes too.

Backlight I think. Probably film pack warp / buckle / wetout. Just a guess.

Edit: Worst part looks kind of like a wrinkle.

Sounds to me like the backlight behind the LCD. They have components which could potentially sag, stick, or warp. White screen is probably best way to see. Also look at various angles. May be more visible at some angles then others.

Hard to unsee. I know this feeling. I used to work in the industry years ago. Displays are never perfect and hard to unsee things once you see them especially when it was part of your job.

See the edit to my comment. If not sharp, could be warping of films in backlight.

That is an interesting one. LCDs as far as I know do not usually burn in and if it is moving then it is not really that anyway.

I will interested what others come up with?

Edit: Is sharp or gradual. Might be warping of films in the backlight for example if not sharp. Just a thought.

If you have never used a password on windows or some other authentication mechanism then your Windows is not very secure.

Most of the differences you quote are pretty much the same both systems.

I guess the one exception is the UAC prompt which on Linux is a bit more secure in that it requires a password. Some random person or app cannot just click through it.

There was a time when I looked at LCD screens I saw all the defects.

One of:

• Thank you and if good learn somthing. Asquestions.

• I know, if I know this.

• I do not want to hear it, if it is repetative garbage.

There are so many good providers in the EU. In the US basically those that implement MTA-STS are Google, Microsoft, and Comcast with all of their issues.

I actually ended up at shared hosting provider. I get 30 mailboxes for less than $100 per year. Only incoming MTA-STS though unless I went to my own VPS.

I like Joplin, but it is a note taker not an office suite. So kind of depends on what you want.

You can just use LibreOffice. On Android the app I have is Collabora. The server I use is Nextcloud though it could be anything that LibreOffice and Collabora can work with. I think there is also some sort of web version too of LibreOffice, but I’ve never tried it. Maybe called “LibreOffice Online”?

That is interesting. You can do that by the command line. Basically run cryptsetup to map the encrypted partition, then run mount. Those commands could also be place in a bash script too. You may need sudo access to run cryptsetup. You will need sudo access for mount unless you configure it as user mountable and not auto mounted in fstab.

You also want script to umount it and unmap it with cryptsetup when done.

Graphically, maybe the Disks gnome tool can do.

You could ask duck.ai too then verify the commands with the man command so you know what they do.

Edit: Also crypttab and fstab are documented in man too as are cryptsetup, mount, and umount.

Edit: Good to not fully trust ai.
