One could argue the vests are like seat belts in a car. You don’t need them 99.9% of the time.

That’s not a slow laptop. I’ve been daily driving worse for years.
To protect the data from random thief just browsing through the files I still use ecryptfs. It only encrypts the home directory, and the keys are derived from my accounts password, so no extra hassle.
The encryption is weak by the current standards, and wouldn’t stop a determined attacker, but it’s 100% better than nothing, and I’ve never noticed any performance problems.
if you don’t need to resize it once it’s created
xfs_growfs is a thing. I know nothing about xfs. Is this something I should avoid for some reason?

Sounds like fun, but I wish we had a real multiplatform GUI framework that does not look like ass and does not perform like ass, so we can put the whole shameful electron era behind us.

Updates depend on the specific distro. Some, like debian, keep the major version the same throughout the entire lifetime, just backporting the security fixes, others, like arch, follows the official major releases more closely.
TIL: Some people actually like their laptop to wake up after openning the lid!
I’ve used Elitebooks with elementary for years and found the wakup after pressing a button logical.
What pissed me off about probooks/elitebooks was that they woke up to inform me about the low battery, then went back to sleep due to low battery, then wake up, sleep, wake up, sleep, wake up… and the agony went on until the sweet death. I’ve never felt so sorry for a non living object before or after.
Oh, and also elementary can’t go to sleep from the lockscreen, on any hardware. One of those those bugs that I’m always sure will be taken care of in the next release, but it never is.
this usually errors out on some missing dependencies.
apt-get -f install
should get them and continue with the installation.
However, as other have said, get an app like gdebi or eddy, and install the .deb throug that.
As far as I remember, RDP server in gnome (or any other exisitng DE) can’t do multiple sessions yet. You have to be logged in via display manager to remote access the existing session via RDP.
They just skipped the special metadata device. It’s been a lifesaver on my proxmox backup server. It went from barely usable to pretty good. And that’s on first generation of HP microserver.

I was thinking laptop. It would be so much less clunky without the external USB and antenna in the field. Or, damn, even a phone! Now I finally have a reason to even think about Librem 5.
XTRX software defined radio.
That’s pretty sweet formfactor. Shame that minipcie is not as comon anymore.
There was a cuban peso and convertible peso, but apparently they’ve been merged 3 years ago. So the sanctions probably are the main barrier to free trade now.
Aren’t cubans still banned from using the real money?
Looks like it’s creating a new volume in a file, but I don’t see any type of quota being set upfront. If it scales up dynamically, it looks like a hot candidate. At this point I just hope distro maintainers settle down on something, anything, and give it a long term support.
There used to be exactly what you are looking for. Encfs, and later ecryptfs could encrypt just the data in your home folder.
It was a checkbox in ubuntu installer, just like the full disk encryption today. The key was protected by the standard user password.
Unfortunately, it was deprecated due to discovered security weaknesses, and I’m not aware of any viable replacement.
For anyone who didn’t see “zeitgeist moving forward” yet, just don’t.
I had a similar setup once. Dualboot, plus the VM with the same physical disk, to access windows, while running linux.
All it took was a small distraction… I’ve missed the grub timeout, and accidentally booted the same ubuntu partition in a VM that was running on the real HW. To shreds…
Disappointment? Only if you mean the person that came up with FoomaticRIP.
For those who did not read the entire thing, it’s a so called “filter” that converts the document before it’s sent to certain nasty types of printers. Except it’s not executed on the print server. The unauthenticated print server can just ask a client to run it on their side. And it’s designed to be able to execute ANY command.
