What Arch-based distro should my sister use?

It has to be nicely themed. No KDE or GNOME btw.

Should she go to Ubuntu 18.10? It looks nice and usable. (even though id go for Devuan if debian route)

OP my sister received an ancient Dell laptop with an optimistic Vista Ready sticker on it. I installed Arch with GNOME on it and she's enjoying it. I hardly had to explain anything to her. Don't dismiss it just because it's not for you.

It does annoy us by displaying a 'HDD likely to fail' message on each startup though (SMART test doesn't approve of the disk's age and it looks like GNOME uses that to alert on each boot). I'm not investing any money in that thing and I don't have spare drives at the moment.

What's the best hardware for reading old PDF books, doujins, and manuals overall? Tablets and eReaders seem promising, but have certain issues:

Android Tablets:

>high resolution screen with IPS/OLED; portrait mode is great for long-term viewing

>light and portable

>expandable storage (if possible)

>can be found for cheap: ~$100-300

<limited to outdated Android botnet that often has poorly optimized apps for tablets; contains firmware blobs

<battery life varies, and newer tablets have no removable battery

<difficult to repair thanks to glue and almost no hardware maintenance manual

eReaders

>excellent battery life thanks to e-ink

>free OS is possible like okreader

>expandable storage for some devices

>can be cheap: ~$80-200 (might be less)

<black/white color only; color on e-ink is not available yet

<e-ink refresh rate is low; slow to control

<OS is usually limited to Amazon or Kobo botnet;some use outdated Android

<ghosting/banding may show for some e-ink displays

Laptops:

>some are light/portable, depending on what you find

>often easier to repair depending on model; ultrabooks are an exception due to glue and soldered parts

>OS options are greater: GNU/Linux, BSDs, etc. May require firmware blobs

<screen type varies: cheap screens have TN - common but low quality; expensive screens have high resolution and/or IPS

<resolution is usually widescreen; usually meant for media consumption and not the best for reading. High resolution can mitigate this, but High-DPI tweaks may be required

My plan is to take a cheap slate chassis from my thinkpile, throw in a $100-200 SBC maybe more if it's PPC based, spend $150-200 on a new 4:3 monitor and eDP driver board then probably around another $100 on miscellaneous parts(batteries, USB converter for thinkpad keyboard etc). It should be less than $500 total.

Both the monitor and SBC should work with standard 5V and ports so they won't be complicated to upgrade later on. A new x86 motherboard on the other hand that's both expensive and will be outdated in a few years.

>>11040

I don't doubt that the newer models have decent batteries but after this

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superfish#Lenovo_security_incident

I don't trust anything Lenovo does and avoid anything they release. Even on the x61t there's a lot of bullshit like a whitelist for PCIe cards and Computrace that can't be removed. It's only gotten worse with time.

>>11041

That's the worst advice. Those things aren't repairable and have terrible Linux support. You're probably better off getting a cheap Android tablet and installing a custom ROM on it.

I've got an old Sony 5" eReader I bought used. It has no network connectivity and if you want to get books on it, you connect it via usb and you use it like a drive. I replaced the battery and it lasts forever. (literally, last full charge was months ago) There's also an upgraded firmware file floating around you can use which lets you do things like display epubs with custom css, and you can also put fonts on it and select whatever you want to read your ebook with. It runs some customized Linux. (no Android) Comfy reader without webshit that just works and fits in my pocket.

I used to have an 13" eink android tablet (there's only one made, so search yourself) and it was absolute utter botnet garbage and the only thing nice about it was the screen. Do not buy.

One day when I have the patience I'll roll my own solution with eInk like that other poster. I fucking love eInk. Also specific eInk screens refresh super fast (for eInk) - that Tablet I had managed about 8-14 FPS which is impressive to see live and is more than enough for console-based Linux which was the original idea. To keep the power usage down there's patial refresh. My dream machine would be something Z80 based (yes, the 8 bit one) that's fast enough to be a terminal or edit text and CP/M compatible and supports a disk drive. One day... Currently the parts are still plenty easy to get.

Will grsecfag ever return? He used to go on mailing lists a bunch the past 2 years, but there's been nothing here or on tech/8g since about the early part of 2019. I'm guessing that it's been so long that getting grsec to be open again is a lost cause. Not being cynical or having despair, just being realistic.

What sort of laptop should I get?

I don't know much about tech

I don't play games

I'm looking for something that's fast + powerful, high quality, future-proofed (within reason of course) and that's easy to use and software that isn't annoying all the time and gives me freedom.

Any help will be greatly appreciated

Money's not an object

They make lots of profits and the money the channelfaggots got was just a tiny tiny portion of the revenue.

Hosting videos doesn't cost nearly as much as they make it out to be and the costs per video reduce with every new video

Hosting 1 video costs a server. Hosting 100 costs just as much if they don't get viewed at the same time.

newpipe - youtube-dl & YouTube frontend. Has speedup built in. (replicant can't stream videos, but it can download them, also can open link w/ webpage / straight download if using it from an RSS feed)

*4.4 signal - encrypted messaging cross platform and default SMS client. requires phone number with centralized AWS server... but Snowden did recommend it at one point.

unit converter ultimate - great offline tool to convert nearly anything

!userland - app that runs a jailed full instance of Linux if you need native Linux applications and don't have root (termux is a much lighter way of doing this).

(I couldnt get it to function on replicant, appears to hang while starting distro))

vanilla music - good local music player, can play nearly anything and has lyric follow abilities, as well as audio tagger (replicant can't play wav or opus, VLC can play all of these but doesn't act like a music player)

Once they get the Lima GPU driver added to Replicant 9 most of the video and lag issues mentioned in this thread should be deal with. But it's a lot of work and won't be finished any time soon. We'll be lucky if it's done by the end of 2020.

I've been thinking of using Replicant on a phone as a prepper item; loading maps and satellite imagery of local area on microsd cards. The note 2 seems to be the best model they support at the moment and can take 64gb cards max. Put a dozen of them in the back of the case and you can store and access quite a lot of information in a small device without internet access.

note 2s have sdxc, i can't promise 2tb but mine has 128gb in it right now! 64gb was just the max size in 2012 iirc

You'll need to patch in the GPS since its a blob. Some people have done it

Depending on what prep you're doing, it might make more sense to get a galaxy s5 w/ lineage os. Its cheaper, more available, also has a removable battery, and has some water resistence. Both phones snitch to the FCC and pre-os boot, the S5 w/ microg has wifi/bt/audio/3d blobs that all are issues only if your prep environment is within civilization and has 3 letter concerns.

If you were in a no / 2g connection area, GPS would work on both but you would have a much more functional computer and be able to hoard / fix / burn them much easier than a note 2.

Another question is, within a prep scenario, can you afford lugging laptops around (one is none, two is one, etc...) to use as your main knowledge source? The note 2, while it can read books and browse downloaded web pages, it does so slowly and w/ app restrictions (no firefox / termux). An s5 could act as a laptop replacement in terms of speed, and a tiny screen is an ok compromise if it means reducing 4-11lb off your bag (2x modern laptops - 3x x200 w/ 9cells)

Personally I'm saving cash to build a prep shelter / homestead in the middle-of-nowhere USA, so I'm fine with extra weight, but if I was doing a nomad/thru-hiker approach I'd have to reconsider, thats enough for a full sized rifle and ammunition

Oh that's good to know about the SD card, I figured it might have been a software limitation but wasn't sure.

>The note 2, while it can read books and browse downloaded web pages, it does so slowly and w/ app restrictions

Yeah as a phone with the original OS on it it's pretty shit. I'm hoping that a well done Replicant install with properly compiled apps will change that.

Also the main point is having a computing device that can fit on your arm or chest rig for quickly looking at maps or satellite imagery stored locally. I like the stylus on those models because they can be bought cheaply and glued into gloves.

How do I remove all the telemetry from Windows 7 without uninstalling updates one at a time? The script I saw on github is from like 2016, any newer versions?

Use BlackViper's configuration guide, carefully. Then inspect task scheduler for any telemetry-related tasks and disable them all. Then employ a hosts file as a secondary measure (combined privacy block lists is good - check github - and there are others). You can also block some hosts on the router level, but this is only necessary with windows 10. Done and done.

Using a pirated os and worrying about Microsoft's telemetry lmao, Microsoft now and always has made money from licensing and not your data, nobody but google and Facebook gives a fuck and Microsoft will profit more from licensing audits on fortune 50 companies in 1 yr than your data would ever be worth.. install ubuntu or fedora linux if you are concerned about performance hits because of telemetry but don't delude yourself into thinking in your entire echo system that ms is who you should be worrying about haha. Inb5 ms shill, delete your facebook, your isp is giving your pedo traffic to the gov and nsa has all your data with nobody's help

Bumping for further information

I've copied down a thread from some Windows 7 forum that discussed potential telemetry updates across Windows 7 and 8. I haven't bothered to go over the list or create a script to automatically uninstall them. It should be straightforward since you can uninstall updates from the command line by issuing the following command:


wusa /uninstall /kb:<UPDATE_ID>/quiet /norestart

Here is the forum thread in plaintext format:

more and more people getting banned on youtube and it's annoying to follow them to other sites, an app with a similar interface to youtube where you can make a profile and link mirrors would be nice.

Like the streaming sites before netflix, where you are able to rate and comment.

you wouldn't need a big server because it would only link to the video.

Atm there are alternatives for uploading videos and alternatives for uploading streams. just make sure people get notified from booth and i am sure you will have enough people that would like to use it.

Different anon

Somewhat related; a service that can join media streams from different websites in real time. For instance, a user could upload a video to youtube with no sound and then upload the sound file to google drive, dropbox, torrent, etc.

This would let you bypass youtube copyright bullshit and shitty audio compression.

Even better would be combining video streams, allowing people to overlay images and videos on top of each other.

I think most of this is already possible with mpv and youtube-dl, but the main idea is to make this process easier. If content creators were aware and able to use this it would be so much more useful to everyone.
