Helix, to privacy in Google Just Killed Warrants That Give Police Access To Location Data

“Geofencing has solved a bunch of really major cases that were otherwise totally cold,” he wrote.

Citation needed. Solving a case for a police officer means finding a person who looks guilty, not that they’re actually guilty. Even if they’re convicted they could’ve just been convicted by being at the wrong place at the wrong time.

Helix, to linux in How to update the BIOS on a Dell laptop running Linux

Why not use fwupd?

Because they’re a Manjaro user and already lost.

Next time buy from vendors which support fwupd.

Helix, to linux in How many of you run a Linux phone (Pine64, Librem etc) as your daily driver?

Which phone?

Just fork it and you can decide.

Helix, to linux in Fedora 40 Will Enable Systemd Service Security Hardening

Actually, I use systemd because it just works for me and operating systems aren’t my hobby. Linux is my job, and things that work well cause less overtime for me.

I’m very excited for Debian 13 :)

Helix, to linux in How to run command or code in parallel in bash shell under Linux or Unix

Do you know what the word ‘example’ means? There are people who aren’t as superbly knowledgeable as you are.

Helix, to linux in (solved) I can't get my linux system to run properly

Do you have VAAPI installed and configured properly for hardware acceleration? Does video playback outside YouTube, e.g. with YouTube-dl and MPV, work?

Helix, to linux in Have a pixelated bonfire to warm your night. (Image size is ~ 19KiB.)

Nice, thanks.

Helix, to privacy in Any *good* keyboard recommations?

I like AnySoftKeyboard but it also doesn’t have great predictions. They’re very customizable though, so maybe you can get something out of it?

Helix, to linux in Make a Linux App

Bruh this is needed

Helix, to linux in Alright, I'm gonna "take one for the team" -- what is with the "downvote-happy" users lately?

cba, can you upload a gif?

Helix, to datahoarder in Mechanical or SSD for offsite storage that’s updated at least yearly?

SSDs lose charge over time. Within a year, bitflips might occur. I recommend going with an HDD with a shockproof case.

This ineo t2580 looks good but I can’t seem to find the maximum capacity. Try not to use HDDs over 12TB and you should be fine.

Helix, to linux in PipeWire 1.0 Released For Managing Audio/Video Steams On The Linux Desktop

Yeah it’s basically Pulseaudio, but better. The devs have done a great job on iterating upon the already pretty good pulseaudio!
