2019-03-16 00:27:11 UTC

2019-03-16 00:29:30 UTC  

Daily reminder that a DNS is no substitute for smart browsing habits

2019-03-17 01:07:18 UTC  

adguard dns is very much the least effort of any option but its not technically private or configurable but itll block ads

2019-03-17 01:09:33 UTC  

adaway requires root and dns66 requires a vpn running at all times, right?

2019-03-17 02:05:20 UTC  

correct

2019-03-17 02:05:24 UTC  

but I have root anyway

IF SOMEONE HERE IS USING __ WINDOWS FIREWALL CONTROL__ save your installer exe (5.x) or find it while you can

2019-03-19 21:05:50 UTC  

malwarebytes bought/annexed the dude

2019-03-19 21:06:14 UTC  

and the new installers (6.x) comes with extra branding and features

2019-03-19 22:25:59 UTC  

Windows ltsb seems to work as expected

2019-03-19 22:26:04 UTC  

minimal bloat

2019-03-19 22:26:11 UTC  

still idiotic pre-settings

2019-03-19 22:26:28 UTC  

and needed to be firewalled and Shutup10'd before touching internet with it

2019-03-19 22:27:03 UTC  

time will tell (tomorrow) what nasties live in that one once i let it touch network and see the dataflow

2019-03-19 22:27:10 UTC  

goddamit its bitch to install

2019-03-19 22:27:21 UTC  

total asked times for internet : 5 or 6 just on installation

2019-03-19 22:27:45 UTC  

every fucking time it needs to reboot during installation

2019-03-19 22:27:55 UTC  

"how about now huh ? some of that packet data ? "

2019-03-19 22:28:18 UTC  

if this experiment works well enough i might even turn my main gaming os to ltsb

2019-03-19 22:30:50 UTC  

Currently on Fedora 28

2019-03-19 22:31:10 UTC  

Its comfy and so far everything was just werks

2019-03-19 22:31:17 UTC  

no games

2019-03-19 22:31:21 UTC  

The packages aren't completly outdated

2019-03-19 22:31:51 UTC  

Lots of games once you add rpm

2019-03-19 22:32:08 UTC  

Just the default KDE rice sucks

2019-03-20 00:50:41 UTC  

@Tervy it's fine by defauly

2019-03-20 00:51:08 UTC  

shutup10 does nearly nothing when you can just set telem to 0

2019-03-20 00:53:18 UTC  

ootb it's fine for 90% of users and their telemetry is minimal when basic is ticked

2019-03-20 08:55:05 UTC  

@Droidbot default installation allows only windows store apps to be installed

2019-03-20 08:55:14 UTC  

and requires manualy going to change that

2019-03-20 08:55:38 UTC  

there is no opt-out of telemetry in installer so you need to use "basic" until you can switch it away from menus on the os

2019-03-20 08:55:40 UTC  

etc etc etc
