Report: Google Play Protect Sucks at Detecting Malware

https://www.makeuseof.com/report-google-play-protect-sucks-at-detecting-malware/

Alternative: get your apps from #fdroid 😎

This is gonna take a little longer than anticipated!
Removing systemd reminds me of removing viruses & spyware from windows 20 years ago. Computing has come a loooong way.. 😂🤣

This is frustrating. Systemd is so embedded it's a real pain to remove.
With runit: xorg crashed
with openrc: kernel panic
I'll have a break for couple of days and try again...

POLL: When do you get out of bed

I've installed #freebsd 13 on my ageing #ThinkPad r61. Two small annoyances:
1. Booting from grub is inconsistent (grub problem!)
2. Xfce desktop freezes, mouse cursor moves & that's all. Have to hard reboot.
Anyone any ideas before I deep dive..

on similar note, if anyone in #Brussels needs (or know somebody that needs) a graphic designer/web designer/amateur programmer/bike mechanic/??? then I'm in the market for a job 👀

Hi all, Geary is looking for a co-maintainer!

@mjog doesn't have enough time to to do it all by themselves any more, and so is looking for a hand in taking care of day-to-day tasks such as bug triaging and fixing, and working on improving the front-end side of the app in particular.

If you're interested, take a look at the issue tracker, and pitch on in!

If you have any questions, please thread them below or get in touch with @mjog 👇

Cheers!

If you're using a static site generator for your website:
How many pages is your site?
which one do you use?
And why that one?

Thanks to a wonderful hardworking developer, my Nokia 6.1 is now free.
Unlocked bootloader
Had to put windows in VM as phone isn't recognised by Linux in fastboot mode!
One more to go, then on to the moto G9!

Working with static site generator & enjoying that I can work in #html & #CSS again, missed this #creative code.

Think I may have found a way to have a usb2 on a usb3 machine - USB keyboard.
ADB doesn't like usb3!

Are there any #guix users here?
Got a slight problem. With "guix pull/upgrade" I'm getting "run out of space on device" error. There is plenty of space.

Any solutions?
Thank you.
