Great, thank you!

Awesome, thanks!

Yeah, that’s exactly the problem, thanks for the better wording.

It’s mini PC that I manage to have it working only with FOSS, even the bluetooth, but it’s a dongle with Bluetooth version 1.1 and I want to upgrade but keeping the system with FOSS.

It’s a mini PC, no PCI or m.2 extension, it’s connected to the internet through cable, but I also have WiFi dongle and a Bluetooth dongle that don’t require proprietary firmware, but the Bluetooth version is only 1.1 which its limitations and I want to upgrade.

I’m already using one that doesn’t require proprietary firmware, but it’s Bluetooth version 1.1 which it has its limitations

Great job! thanks for your effort. It seems that it overrides the default settings of mpv. I tried adding options in the box in the settings like --volume=50 but it doesn’t work.

Does it support playlists or at least a list of videos in the video link?

Yeah, I use MPV as a external player and it’s great because you can highly customize the way you watch videos. I like equalize the sound and through a MPV script I save the video from cache with a keystroke if I liked it. Sadly watching with subtitles stopped working some weeks ago.

I don’t see the reasoning “hackers with AI” is a vague, it’s already happening. Scammers use deepfakes to steal $25.6 million from a multinational firm The software to do this is already available in github for anyone to use it. There’s a billion market around phone scams, it’s just a matter of time of widespread adoption of this technology by scammers. Scammers are swiping billions from Americans every year That’s why I talked about being well informed and seeing the dangers. May be I’m paranoid but it doesn’t mean its not happening.

If I should talk about an emotional color concerning to this I’d say it’s defeat. They will get what they want.

Because of economical reasons it’s not an option right now.

Well, it seems that my bad english made it seem that I am suffering of anxiety or something. I just don’t like the abussive behavior of corporations and the government that exposes us unnecessarly to the risks of being hacked or scammed.

No daily anxiety at all, just being aware of the dangers. When I drive and see a red light I just stop, there is no anxiety involved, I’m just aware of the dangers of crossing. If you are not aware of the dangers of the excessive digital exposure and surveillance you should subscribe to this community and read what’s going on in China and in an increasing number of western countries in relation to this.

Debian 69?

How many years until they run out of characters?

I was in a similar situation and after a lot of research I found posteo.net and I liked its privacy, FOSS and environmental policies and gave it a try. Happy with its service for just 1€ a month.

Crypto enthusiasts don’t really care or understand decentralization.

I wouldn’t criticize others for their low IQ while making such a dumb generalization.

Unfortunately for them this means that 99.99% of the Linux distributions out there do not qualify as >GNU/Linux, even the ones like Debian, Red Hat, or Ubuntu that did adopt the GNU/Linux name >scheme, because they all host, promote, or allow users access to non-free software in some way.

You are totally confused. In words of R. Stallman:

“The kernel is an essential part of an operating system, but useless by itself; it can only function in the context of a complete operating system. Linux is normally used in combination with the GNU operating system: the whole system is basically GNU with Linux added, or GNU/Linux. All the so-called “Linux” distributions are really distributions of GNU/Linux”.

“Today there are many different variants of the GNU/Linux system (often called “distros”). Most of them include nonfree programs”.

It’s not unusual to see people talking about android users being Linux users “because android is Linux too” clearly not understanding the difference between Linux the OS, i.e. GNU/Linux, and Linux the kernel. So it’s useful when you have to make such a distinction.
