Yes. And that doesn’t excuse it; a moderator should be better than the community they moderate.

“childish trolls in this community”, “this community is full of trolls”, “90% of folks here dont get the issue and rather troll”

Someone is going back over their contributions, right?

Right?

Debian and Fedora have ports, though not all packages are available, and you’ll probably be doing a lot of porting if you want anything else.

But this bit from the uConsole R-01 product page might be relevant to you:

uConsole R-01 is a highly experimental model and requires some experience with Linux systems & FOSS. We strongly recommend all beginners choose other models.

The employer doesn’t claim any intellectual property rights over my work product. I’m not able to find anywhere that the proprietary vendor does either.

You’re probably in the clear. Legalese isn’t so opaque that you would miss a section about this.

Of course, that doesn’t stop them from suing you if they decide your work could be very profitable for them.

Overkill and overpriced. If you’re on Windows, bitlocker is enough. If you’re on Linux, LUKS is enough.

I’ve used Apricorn drives at previous jobs. They’re cool and very much fit for purpose, but I’d have a hard time justifying the significant price premium when software is nearly as good, free, and works with any drive.

What, exactly, are your privacy concerns about this?

I would expect any browser to properly render a page, regardless of platform. Are you sure the page is mobile-friendly? Why do you say it’s “not great”?

How confident do you need to be? I don’t think I’ve seen any convincing evidence of any firmware spying in PC components.

Well, except the NSA’s Clipper chip, but I don’t think that really ever got implemented.

Yes, and? They are not sending your PHI to Microsoft.

Or, if they use Microsoft cloud services like 365 or Azure, where they are sending PHI to Microsoft, Microsoft agrees to follow local healthcare information protection law. In the US, as a business associate, they are a covered entity under HIPAA and must maintain compliance to protect your information.

You would probably get a better answer by asking a Rhino community. But a quick look at the documentation suggests you can choose: https://rhinolinux.org/wiki-rpk.html

Usually the first thing I put on a new phone is a case.

They say their biggest expense is marketing. But I think they’re honest in saying that there are no current plans for layoffs. They just made the plans right after making that statement.

A lot of those people need to get a hobby. Arguing over definitions in someone else’s projects doesn’t count as a hobby.

You ever seen a phone at 0%?

Good on them for admitting and addressing it instead of denying it for years. Looking at you, Teamviewer. (Although they did initially say it was just “planned maintenance”.)

I hope all your stuff supports Unicode.

They would only have the trademark as long as they’re still using it. I don’t think there’s anything first-party still in active development for any DS platform, but it’s still recent enough.

It might just not have caught their attention yet.

I’m not sure if there’s some special calling feature to reach a previously associated provider, but when I’ve been in that situation I just borrowed my roommate’s phone.

In the store if you’re getting the phone from a store, or somewhere with wifi (home, a friend’s, a cafe) if you’ve gotten it some other way.

If you don’t have any of those, you probably live way out in the jungle, and I’d be surprised if you had service even if you got the eSIM. But in the edge case that you somehow got home delivery postal service in the jungle, you’d probably be able to survive just fine without it until your next trip into town.

In the extreme edge case that you are in the jungle, get service, and your need is critical, I would have an activated backup phone tested periodically and ready to go.
