“get more computer literate” what does the even mean?

Yes, you are right, I wasn’t sure what that type of case is called in US.

You would think a company that touts privacy and security would have good support for the most private and secure OS.

I don’t have any issues with using Proton bridge and VPN in QubesOS.

I have not tested it with the Fedora templates, but both the bridge and VPN works just fine with Debian.

Split tunneling works with sys-net-vpn or sys-net for different applications.

Here is a list of e-mail providers, https://www.privacyguides.org/en/email/

Start with finding a provider you like, most will allow you to make a free account, make sure you pick one what has all the features you need.

The provider hosting the DNS for your domain will give you a login to a web interface where you can control the DNS for the domain, in that interface you need to add a set of record provided by the e-mail provider.

You typically need to make 1-3 mx record, 3 cname record, and 1-3 txt records. The e-mail provider will give you the text strings you need to copy and paste into the dns settings.

Saying you don’t know how to do it, does mean much unless you actually tried to do it, we are not talking rocket science

How easy or complicated it is depends on your e-mail and DNS provider, in some cases it can be fully automated, worse case you need to follow a step-by-step guide.

For fully authenticated e-mail you typically need to create 5-7 DNS records, but the e-mail provider will provide you with the exact text strings you need to copy and paste, and they also typically provide verification that everything is working.

You can probably pay someone to do it for you, we are talking about 5-10min of work, and it only needs to be done once.

Doing so is illegal, the complaint contended, because under American law tax-return information cannot be disclosed to unauthorized parties without consent from the payer. It will be interesting to see if the courts rule that Analytics actually vacuums up tax-return info.

I’m not a lawyer, not sure if it’s called case law, the case seems mostly to determine if it’s legal or not.

You don’t need to run the mail server yourself.

If you own a domain, you can use DNS MX record to control which mail server is used for the domain. You just need to use an e-mail provider that allows you to use a custom domain name, and set up the domain to use their service.

You should also use your own domain, then you can switch between email service providers without losing your e-mails address.

The biggest issues is that most people don’t want to spend even $20 a year on email.

Yes, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semaglutide

Wegovy is approved for people with obesity, or genetics that lead to obesity. It’s also not a general purpose weight loss product, it’s for people who can’t control their weight without medication.

Ozempic is not a general purpose weight loss product, it’s for people with diabetes who can’t control their weight only using exercise and diet.

Buying your own modem probably isn’t enough, they are still going to be able to configure the modem.

I would just place a firewall between them modem and your network, if you are worried about the ISP hacking into your network.

Women and men are in the same league, the league isn’t for just men, there just isn’t any women with high enough rating to be in the top 100.

There is a special league just for women where men can’t compete.

No, at least not in the sense that they are stupid.

Boys tend to be more interested in chess at a younger age, unless you start playing chess professionally at a very young age you are probably never going to a top 100 player.

It’s similar to why very few women become top tier in e-sport, they don’t typically have that interest at a very young age.

I think the highest rated woman is 2628, she wouldn’t even be in the top 100 which would require a rating of 2644.

With current rating, not a single women would have a chance to play in international tournaments, if there only was one league.

The FPF uses Qubes OS for their SecureDrop project, and I also believe that journalists that can get free education on how to use Qubes OS.

This might be worth reading for anyone working as a journalist, or in a similar line of work. https://unredactedmagazine.com/issues/003.pdf#003-layout.indd%3A.36191%3A1470

You can use DNS over HTTPS or TLS with Quad9 https://www.quad9.net/service/service-addresses-and-features

If you are using PiHole just use that as the forward DNS.

People were saying the same thing about ProtonPass, but both pass and sentinel seem like relatively small projects, it would be hard to believe they are taking massive amounts of resources.

It’s 2023. By this time I’m fine if BIOS boot was removed completely

I was replying to that post.

But I guess read the thread before posting was too much to ask.

Why not?

Qubes OS use Fedora for dom0.

It would hurt some projects.

Just as an example, A small project Qubes OS supports UEFI, but a lot of the UEFI implementations from different manufactures are broken or don’t follow the standards. Qubes OS doesn’t have the developer resources to fix issues with motherboards or laptops only used by a handful of users, so when all else fails the solution is to use legacy mode.

Coreboot also uses legacy boot for some payloads.
