Well, would they stand out to the next node but not to all Intermediaries, right, including the website they are visiting?

You can install packages on it, I'd say it's tailored to be a firewall/router

I would definitely recommend OPNSense. The hardware support is quite good

It didn't break my system. I refused the update, installed qt6-phonon-backend-mpv, updated the system, and uninstalled everything VLC related. Even though I don't use the backend there are no VLC packages that I don't need

I replaced the battery on mine in under a year despite it reporting 92% or something like that... Using with Hubitat Elevation with the default update rates or slower. Very disappointed in the battery life otherwise, a great sensor

I don't know about the distro but I know his keyboard only has 2 keys: 1 and 0

Recently install Fedora 42 KDE on one of those weird laptops with a pen - everything just works, no tinkering.
Looking at your specs - I have almost the same config, except in place of SATA SSD I installed a NVMe SSD, if course the laptop needs to support that. KDE Plasma is superior in the touch support, although the screen keyboard is a little buggy at times. But the situation in the GNOME ecosystem is a bit worse for touch/pen devices. Good luck

Yep and can be easily firewalled to mitigate trust

It can track a bookmark last visited time and count a bookmark number times xlicjed. It is a bookmark sync centric service

So, how's that in the privacy aspect?

Does anyone have any issues with 6.5.7? I updated yesterday and could not boot. (1 of 2) A start job is running for /dev/mapper/root (30s / no limit) (2 of 2) A start job is running for /dev/disk/by-uuid/MY-UUID (30s / no limit)

Also during update my display resolution was set to 640x480 and I could not change it, so decided to reboot. I use a popular nowadays setup with LUKS encryption + unlock on TPM2, secure boot. I thought I messed with configs somewhere so started chasing that: changing configs and rebooting with no luck. The solution was to restore kernel 6.5.5 and everything booted back up without a hiccup. I am dreaded to see what happens during next kernel upgrade.

This is not asking for hep, more like a PSA if you have setup similar to mine, be aware


To those who stumble on this post in the future, I have found a solution that was in my case not knowing my system well enough. Since I decided to use Unified kernel images, I used mkinitcpio to compile those, but for some reason I used sbctl-bundle on top of that, which in itself is not any harm, just extra unnecessary work, and every single time I referenced an initramfs image from /boot which was an old one and was installed prior to me switching to UKI. When I read on Arch Wiki that I can delete those initramfs images from /boot - I deleted them, then had problems with sbctl bundle, and ONLY THEN it clicked - any new kernel install/upgrade doesn't generate initramfs in /boot but instead directly in UKI.

This is also good news because sbctl author announced deprecation of the bundle feature in the future.
