Surely messaging would have happened beforehand if US had given a green light to Israel before the attack... Right?

I mean, I'm sure people are paying for this plenty. I think the story here is she is doing it herself (which is actually more fascinating).

+1 for proton, though I think modern VM tech very little overhead these days.

Maybe it's because they were vibe-writing.

Off the top of my head I cannot remember the specifics, but there are several options during boot that you can make optional, for instance don't wait until there's an internet connection.

This has been on my mind, I have yet to do it but the implementation seems trivial.

You can use typical luks full disk encryption with a password. Luks actually has five password slots. Passwords do not have to be actual text, they can be a file or even part of a file.

So my idea is, buy some really cheap, low profile USB flash drives and store some seemingly innocuous data like cat pictures or public domain books, IDK and it doesn't matter what the actual data is. Use full disk encryption and set a regular password, then add a second password that is a file or part of a file that lives on the flash drives, and have it set up to look for that file on boot as an option for unlocking.

Now the disc is fully encrypted but will boot/reboot without interruption as long as the flash drive is installed. You can remove the flash drive when you're feeling paranoid, or even better only install it when you are going to be away for a while. If you leave with the machine having the flash drive but are feeling worried, you can remote into the machine and edit / delete the file or just clear the key slot from Luks.

That's what's been on my mind, anyway. I think the typical suggestion/solution is to just use drop bear and remotely unlock using that, or don't use full disk encryption and selectively encrypt your data instead (partitions or userspace encryption).

I'm not going to proofread this so I hope it makes sense

I'm not visually impaired, I just let the phone read blocks of text to me while I keep scrolling / looking at other things. I am using the Eternity app and Android's built in "select to speak" TTS feature.

I just got a NAS and downloaded all my GOG and Humble games into it. Didn't even occur to me that something like this existed. I'm going to have to give it a try soon, since it sounds like Linux through Wine is supported.

Recently shot myself in the foot after buying a flagship sony, only to find they do not support bootloader unlock specifically on the US variant. It feels like a conspiracy, since it is practically the same hardware and software otherwise.

Still a great phone but I literally purchased it specifically because I thought it had all of these features and an unlockable bootloader

I use Jellyfin which covers all my personal streaming needs. But yeah, still not the same
