The place to get snaps is proprietary and exclusive.

Interesting. Maybe it’s because I’m using a VPN and a privacy-oriented web browser to mitigate fingerprinting.

Yes. For one, Google requires phone verification to create an account, and two, you would be giving Google a link to one specific account for every video you watch.

Source? I don’t believe it.

Why else would the US be working so hard to ban it and make it very difficult to obtain?

btw i use nano

Are you familiar with QubesOS? It has a similar security model to the Xbox consoles.

Basically, the host OS only exists to run VMs, which includes separate VMs for networking, USB devices, applications, etc. With QubesOS, you can also pass through something like a GPU for use in a dedicated gaming VM (although you can do that on any Linux distro).

Seems like that’s a Windows issue and not Xbox. There was a recently released kernel exploit for Xbox, but it’s sandboxed to the SystemOS.

If you want to pwn the Xbox OS entirely, you would need a hypervisor escape exploit, which is very difficult to accomplish.

There is nothing Microsoft I would consider “top tier” when it comes to security.

Counterpoint: Xbox consoles. They just stick everything inside of VMs a la QubesOS

I’ve been using NixOS for about 3 years. Probably going to switch back to Arch, though.

GNOME is the Apple of the FOSS world

Lemmy isn’t listed as a Reddit alternative. I wonder why that is.

They are also recommending PrivacyTools.io, which had a nasty takeover and started selling ad space. Privacy Guides is the better site.

Look up “adb” or “Android platform tools” on your favorite search engine. It’s something you do on your PC with your phone plugged in.

adb shell pm uninstall --user 0 com.google.android.devicelockcontroller

If you’re using Shelter, then in addition to that command, replace --user 0 with --user 10

You don’t need root to do this. You can also uninstall other bloatware using this same method.

So Santa Claus IS real

Remember when Microsoft said Windows 10 will be the last version of Windows?
