I couldn’t resist…

My Recipe Box is used by a few in my family.

No account or internet connection needed and app for Android and ios.

Does this mean I am unable to use mint cinnamon or does this link show how to install for mint cinnamon?

Apologies for my confusion. I am still learning the basics and appreciate the help.

Proton vpn. It was a command line installation. After reading further about it, it does not work with cinnamon.

If you want to install additional software: If you come from Windows, you might be familiar with visiting websites of software then downloading a setup.exe/msi from there. That’s NOT how you install software on Linux. On Linux, you first look if there’s a package available for your distribution

This is where I have gotten lost. Trying to install my vpn.

My vpn does not work with cinnamon apparently, and I did not want to use the app in the software manager that is not even associated in any way with the actual vpn provider.

I am going to check out the forums next. (This is why having a techy person you know would be helpful!)

If companies can’t protect the information they collect now, (a large portion of it gathered without consent), how are they going to protect even more information; and where can I opt out?..smh

If they did not collect any information, they would not have any information to give when they are served a subpoena.

I would happily pay to download Firefox if they removed telemetry, ads, analytics. Security updates could be free, feature updates could have a small fee. Something similar.

There is a way to fund Firefox without user data and ads. Will it be as profitable, who knows, because quite simply, the vast majority do not want to make it a reality and loose what profit, control, or power they currently hold onto.

In parallel to our existing consumer products, we have the opportunity to build a better infrastructure for the online advertising industry as a whole. Advertising at large cannot be improved unless the tech it’s built upon prioritizes securing user data. This is precisely why we acquired Anonym.

Catering to the ad industry is backwards thinking, imo. Securing user data is easy enough if you do not collect it to begin with.

Imo, the fact companies have changed the narrative in favor of advertisers and data collection, proves only profit matters, not the people.

It still boggles my mind how paying for ads became acceptable. Not only is the company making money from the advertisers for the ad space, they now get to make money off the population for viewing the ads. This is a crazy world we live in.

I’m pretty sure that Amazon, google, etc do far more nefarious shit behind the scenes in terms of tracking/fingerprinting you and collecting data to sell

You even get to pay more and more for this privilege…smh

I am not on Reddit, but, would making a subreddit private lead to difficulty in training the AI and collecting data?

Indoor plumbing, heating and air!

Good…the bad place

Run, run far away and forget you ever heard of fb!!

The more this invasive behavior becomes the norm, the worse off ALL of us will be.

For most people in this community, TNG is your parents’ star trek. It began airing in 1987, 37 years ago. TOS is your grandparents’ Star Trek, at the earliest.

Amazing how you do not think too much about your own age, until you see it staring back at you in black and white!

By this community’s standards at least I can say I did Live long. The Prosper part, not so much.

I did not see a reason given. Anyone know why?
