It’s pretty messed up that schools enforce those things onto kids. Chromebooks, while cheap, invade the hell out of your privacy and are extremely restrictive. We should be teaching kids GNU/Linux, not ChromeOS… I honestly feel sorry for the future of free software. Students aren’t taught ethics, freedom, or privacy at ALL. I was in school, (graduated two years ago), and it seemed that every teacher adapted the “you don’t have privacy” motto. Absolutely terrible. Buy the kids a Dell Latitude E6400 and put Libreboot/Trisquel with KDE on it. Let them live and help each other out with issues. It would be super heart warming to see schools adapt something like this instead.
(I understand the convenience issues, but we should start adapting, its crazy that Gen Z barely know anything about computers)
I honestly think anonymity is even better now, given the fact that you can self-host LLMs that can change the linguistic style of your writing into something entirely different.
Yes, because I’m definitely going to be looking for women on Lemmy 🤔
Regardless, it was a joke but sorry if it offended you.
Not a bad idea! Thanks for the advice!
True, It’s not a deal breaker if they’re not into computers. It’s more of a preference that I seek to fulfill.
The person was saying they couldn’t access a certain site with Firefox, that’s why I suggested a chromium based browser.
Yes, but Edge comes with a lot more proprietary components added.
I would recommend installing ungoogled-chromium or using another hardened FOSS version of chromium instead.
Why not use chromium or a hardened version of it? Edge is proprietary software.

May I ask what PC this is? You might be able to flash Libreboot to it and keep the firmware updated/remove Intel Management Engine entirely. Internal flashing is possible on most of these older computers, no special flashing equipment needed, just need to type a few commands in terminal basically.
Don’t you need tons of RAM to run LLMs? I thought the newer models needed up to 64GB RAM? Also, what about Stable Diffusion?
They have the Google Pixel 8 which has a 120Hz refresh rate, if you can afford it.
GrapheneOS for the Google Pixel. I’m using a Google Pixel 4 which was like $120 and super easy to flash. I’m from the US, so I understand if things might be different where you are.
LIBREBOOT! LIBREBOOT! LIBREBOOT!
Well, they’re not wrong. It is ‘open-source’, not Free Software.
I’m just looking to have my users not use JS to shop at my store. I’m not too familiar with web dev terminology.
Honestly, should I keep it or no? I love this domain name, I’m just trying to use it for my blog :P
Oh shoot, yeah I don’t have the money for that lol I’m just a small computer store. Is it okay just to use it for my blog then? Thank you and everyone else for the advice!
Does that mean I can register the name for my business name?
