Docker is not virtualisation, although it’s a common misconception.

A better way to think of it is a security wrapper around untrusted processes.

You can prove this for yourself by looking at all the processes running in a Docker host while one or more containers are running, you’ll see all the processes listed.

In other words, you don’t need a CPU capable of virtualisation to run Docker.

Welcome to the community!

Among us you’ll discover an eclectic mix of humanity with a particular disposition towards the somewhat odd hobby of amateur radio, which we can’t help but discuss, sometimes even argue about, but don’t let that put you off!

Thank you for your kind words about my weekly contribution to the hobby, there’s plenty more to catch up on. I started this adventure in 2011, called it “What use is an F-call?” and renamed it after 200+ episodes to “Foundations of Amateur Radio”

Its home is here: https://podcasts.vk6flab.com/

Have fun and enjoy this exciting hobby! If you ever have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to contact me.

Use a bash command line:

Excellent example. I hadn’t even considered electronics coming from a software background.

This is what that looks like in real life:

I’ve used the node.js version of argparse, which as I understand it, is a clone of the python implementation and I’ve not seen how to do mutually exclusive flags. Mind you, at the time I didn’t need them, so it wasn’t an issue, but I don’t recall seeing any way to do it either.

Did I miss something?

OP was talking about Lineage, not Graphene.

If an app doesn’t have data it cannot share it.

If you don’t install the app, it cannot breach your privacy.

You don’t need direct internet access to leak information, for example, an app with access to your calendar has indirect internet access.

That is very cool!

Thank you for the suggestion.

Oh boy … very cool.

Now how do I do this in bash?

I agree. I’m a software developer and absolutely love OpenSCAD.

It would be great if it supported things like fillets and chamfers, otherwise I’m very happy with it.

Keep your existing phone and OS.

Use it differently. Decide what information you store on it, which applications you install or disable, what permissions you grant and what services you use.

Just installing an OS to “debloat and degoogle” is not ever going to change anything unless you change your habits and you don’t need to change OS to do that.

USA only

You already know the answer to this question.

When I last played with this a decade or so ago, there were several map tiling solutions in the geosciences that are self hosted.

From memory, “World Wind” is a good search term, but there’s others.

The Hollywood hacking depictions are equivalent to seeing syringes being used on film. To the uninitiated it looks “real”, the reality is somewhat different.

Privacy breaches come in many guises … this is one of them.

Yeah … that thought occurred to me as well.

I wonder if there’s a way that you can legally monetize the process, so the organisation who left a gaping hole … or several bazillion in this case … gets an education in corporate security and the researcher gets paid for their efforts. A corporate symbiosis if you like.

If course the non legal way is extortion … but that tends to go towards warfare and mutually assured destruction, rather than collaboration.

Perhaps this opens the door to a white hat penetration testing department at the corporate regulator who issues fines (which pay for the work) … but I’m not seeing any evidence of an appetite for anything even remotely resembling such a set-up anywhere on Earth.

Espionage on the other hand …

Timezone differences permitting, you can always join F-troop at midnight UTC on Saturday (about one and a half hours from now) and start the discussion. The net runs for an hour every week.

This is hilarious.

On Bluesky they’re posting that researchers are flocking to substack:

Fairly sure we’re on the same content. I’m beyond the black stump waaay out West.

The audio controls are odd.

The only thing actually controlled on the Apple TV is Bluetooth, the rest is external. The remote does IR, so it can control the amplifier directly.

No Apple ecosystem here, mostly Google Home and Android phones for family stuff, Linux for anything that matters.

I hated the idea of paying $16.99 for YouTube, but then I realised that it’s a big chunk of what I’m watching. Started off as an experiment, now we treat it like just another streaming service.
