The sourcecode and binaries produced under MIT and BSD ARE Free Software.

The difference is that others have no obligation to publish the source, nor are they prevented from adding any additional restrictions.

As long as the release refrains from doing this, it remains Freesoftware. idk where you got it your information from but its wrong.


 No.878745>>878749

No. Let's say Mr. B develops an application under the MIT license. He then compiles it and adds a download for the binary on his website. Users download what you are calling free software. Since that binary is free software by your logic, how do people use their freedom to modify the software. They don't have the source code for it.

>Orfox, Orbot

Does anyone else get the impression that the Guardian repo apps are somewhat carelessly produced? Orbot's log messages seem vaguely inconsistent to me every time I run it, it once or twice it changed the language of one of its dialogs out of nowhere IIRC, the release archive on its website was inconsistently named as well last I checked, and the description of the ObscuraCam app mistakenly refers to it as "Orweb," which I'm not even sure is an active app anymore. (Not to mention that they can't even decide if to use asterisks or trans-ASCII chars for stars in their descriptions.) Together, it kind of undermines the gravity of that Guardian project.

It's pretty, but I recently realized, by accident, that it identifies you by the "accept language" header.

It's not useless if you Torify Klar.

>Airplane mode doesn't do shit anon

Yes, it does. It turns off the antennas in your phone. Said antennas cause interference and introduce noise to readings in several specialized equipment (back in the day planes were susceptible for this, hence "plane mode".)

You can easily check this by placing your phone besides a big speaker and then making a call. If the phone is not in airplane mode, you will hear interference in the speaker. If it is, you won't hear anything.

>Why is it that I can go into some remote area hundreds of kilometers away from any sort of civlization with zero phone service, yet I can convientely still call people for 'emergencies'.

You can't. You can only call emergency numbers in the US and Europe because they put special infrastructure for emergency calls (and even then good luck making that call if there is, indeed, zero phone service in that area.)

Okay, I checked it, not your post, the Fdroid repository. Packages are not compiled and signed by developers. And there is no way to prove their authenticity otherwise. Seems like an outright honeypot to me. Dumb noobuntuers "yay, we fucking love package maynagers wazing wo-hoo! ding!" thought this was a good enough idea. Let me explain what's wrong: when I use a distribution like Debian, I trust it's developers with my whole system, therefore I trust them with modified software packages they ship. When using AUR, which is an exactly what Fdroid tries to cosplay, I import every developer's keys prior manually, unless I want myself to be rused by random highschool hackerman.

How about the retard who thinks he needs to re-license his publicly avalible GPL program as proprietary in order to sell it for money.

Unfortunately Osmand isn't useful day-to-day for those of us who rely on public transit in many cities. I'd love to ditch all things google for good, but I don't really have the option to not use google maps unless I download the schedule PDFs of all 189 bus and train routes in my city and manually work out connecting schedules. Even my city's official transit app is just a google maps wrapper, and every single transit schedule app on F-droid does not support my city at all.

Though I do love and heavily rely on Osmand when travelling. That offline map functionality is just glorious. It's saved my bacon more than once.

A-fucking-men to that! There's all too many real-world examples of developers (particularly on the Play Store) selling out to some random Chinese data-mining company, and those Chinese companies pushing out super-sketchy updates since they now have the signing keys. Chinafire selling SuperSU to CCMT, anyone?

I'll take F-Droid's "we repo devs compile all, we repo devs sign all, we repo devs are god" approach over the fucking Play Store's "lol, feel free to sell out for a quick buck at the expense of your users" bullshit anyday.

See above. Fdrod has Telegram with proprietary dependencies and no one gives a shit. Comparing developer's redistributable files with your own compiled binaries and then signing the original would do the job just right.

Go read the description on F-Droid for Telegram. I quote, "Several proprietary parts were removed from the original Telegram client" etc etc. The version of Telegram on F-Droid is specifically described as replacing binary blobs with forked sources that replicate those blobs functionality, or removing functionality entirely if alternatives to blobs are completely unavailable. Aside from using Telegram's closed servers, the Telegram client on F-Droid does NOT use proprietary dependencies.

Show us on the doll where F-Droid's maintainers touched you.

How the fuck is that supposed to help with figuring out CONNECTING schedules? Do you have reading comprehension issues? My city is just a little on the large side. When I need to figure out how to get to some place I've never been, I need to plan out a multiple-stop route. Waiting a few extra minutes at a bus or train stop won't do jack shit to accomplish that. Bad weather can screw up those "clockwork-like schedules" pretty easily.

Not him but I'm not seeing the source for perfect viewer, its certainly not on f-droid. The difference though is that Tachiyomi lets you search and view many different taiwanese comic book sites. You can use it to batch download from those sites or just use it as a reader for those sites.

Also I recommend TachiyomiEH instead, it supports more sites and the builds don't break with every update like the one on f-droid does(it can auto-update from github instead).

ddb2 on android, foobar on desktop.

unfortunately, haven't found anything that ticks all the points among FLOSS. maybe I will make one myself eventually, but this is far from an easy task.

I'm looking for support of most useful formats (and not only the mainstream; this is not hard if decoding is delegated to ffmpeg btw), maximum glitch-proof (not possible on mainstream operating systems because they are not realtime, but it should try hard to never glitch), DSP support (including convolver, good resampler, crossfeed, etc), replaygain support, and everything one would expect from a music player.

ddb2 doesn't meet all of this but it's close.

foobar2000 is almost ideal, but it's not free as in freedom, and it has a couple of stupid limitations which are too hard to explain for those who aren't using it for 8+ years or so.

it cannot do any DSP delay compensation when converting (that is, if I use a filter which has a delay, there's no way to make foobar2000 compensate for it) this results in wrong resulting records lengths and/or misplaced track transitions. the only practical way to combat this is to not use DSP-effects with non-negligible delays. (unfortunately, not all useful effects are possible with near-zero algorithmic delay)

converter's behavior for DSP restarting is really limited; it either treats all tracks as completely separate (thus potentially introducing discontinuities) or treats all selection as one continuous record (doesn't make any sense for converting multiple albums in 1 go; especially given the previous problem); I need to select each album separately to have the desired results.

there's no way to paste items to playlist at the end using only keyboard; I can only paste before the last element. "solvable" by having a dummy silence track at the very bottom.

there's no way (even with add-ons) to let it feed a few seconds of silence before starting to play a track (but not do this on automatic track changes), I have to manually add "silence://2" to the playlist before the album I want to play and start with this. this is needed if the selected output method for some reason may glitch for first seconds, a very common thing actually, especially with wine.

it doesn't save nothing if it is killed abnormally (crash for example), it's a PITA if you forgot to manually save your playlists and settings and crashed it (that is, gracefully quit it and launch again) and crashing it under wine is 100% possible.

IIRC, functionality for editing/adding/viewing embedded CUE sheets is lacking but I haven't seen files which use it for a while as I got rid of them in my collection.

it understands UTF-8 CUE sheets only if they have a BOM (that's really stupid for UTF-8 as it's byte-order neutral by design); if there's no BOM, it will interpret it as some other encoding, often displaying garbage.

it can't read CUE sheets with precision greater than 75 fps (as in CDDA), but almost no player does…

when converting to 16-bit, the dithering is not configurable; it's either on or off, and the amount of dithering is almost too excessive. one can prevent harmonic distortion with a lot less added noise. it's okay for listening anyway, but excessive noise, even when not heard, leads to worse compression efficiency by subsequent compression.

random playback is quite limited; one can jump to a random track, but not to a start of a random album. (possibly solved by addons but I rarely need it, so I don't feel like increasing attack surface only for this)

level matching is only possible by putting ReplayGain tags inside files; there's no way to do it transparently on the fly (automatically scanning files in background as they are added and storing it in a separate DB)

Before I roll my own, what is the absolute best text editor for Android with FOSS license?

minimal requirements:

1) Up-to-date look and feel ("material design", native to Android 7.1)

2) stable, never crashes

3) can save&load both to its own private data folder (inaccessible by other apps) and to any other place on the filesystem

4) small APK size, no botnet features

5) can accept text from other apps via implicit intents

I was using Hackers Keyboard but the creator hasn't updated in awhile now and the English autocorrect dictionary is no longer on the Play Store OR on F-Droid and has not been for months now. It seems to have been abandoned.

m8, I know of the meme that Linux "can't get viruses". That only exists since most broad viruses target the largest user group--windows. There are still viruses for Linux, and especially many broad/generic viruses for the Android version of it.

I am not like you with "nothing to hide". I protect every device I have on all 7 layers of the OSI model. I wanted a recommendation for to help with Android / Lineage since many I've tried have done much more than block viruses. They are what you guys would call a "botnet".

How do you protect the session layer? Delete your cookies or something?


 No.889452>>889466 >>889595

>>889414

>>889432

Viruses are mostly an OS design issue. Android generally speaking doesn't get viruses because every application in Android is installed as its own user. You can't spoof Android applications because the APK has to be signed with a unique signature to even be installed (lest you get the "Package appears to be corrupted" error) because package signatures are how Android determines wither or not the application is already installed. You never even hear about modern Windows getting viruses because Microsoft learned from their mistakes (there are viruses that can disable the Windows anti-virus services but they need to be installed and executed locally first)

No, you fucking idiot. The most profitable targets are servers (Linux dominant), critical systems (linux dominant) and smartphones (linux dominant). Desktop computers are irrelevant. Linux is just secure by default and getting malware on it requires the user to allow it's execution manually through a super user permission. Getting malware on windows is easy because it's an insecure platform by design.

The first thing I always do after getting a new phone and running a factory reset is to go through Settings -> Apps and then painstakingly going through every single fucking application installed on the phone so I can disable useless permissions like that, and disabling/uninstalling all bloatware. Shit take me 45 minutes to an hour to do every fucking time and it misses me off that it has to be this way. And disabled bloatware is never truly uninstalled.

I don't understand how people are having notifications issues, I'm running Lineage without any GSF and notifications for WhatsApp/Telegram works fine under WiFi, although it works on mobile it drains the battery like a have never seen before, so I had to block background mobile connections for both

I was also impressed that Google Maps works without GSF, I was avoiding installing any Google malware but I just got too dependant on the public transport routing. You can even use it without log in, but will not able to save offline maps, pin locations and have the search history

Technically speaking, "application," in the sense of "something applied," is a superclass of "program." All computer programs are applications of a computing device such as a PC or a phone, but not all applications are programs -- a phone can be, for instance, also applied as a paperweight, or a projectile to throw at someone.

The first thing I always do is not use it.

It's fucking botnet. Using it would fuck you up.

Booting it up would cause it to get the following info

>gps info (make sure you slide down the status bar and off the gps or is under a -100dBm subway without femtocells)

>wifi networks available around (make sure your home router is off)

>bluetooth networks (make sure your bluetooth headset or speakers aren't around for this weird ass botnet to see or be remotely seen by other niggers)

>cellular networks (if you put a sim inside a niggerified botnet machinery's first boot then you're fucking opsec is dead kiddo)

Do not send any bluetooth file or let it connect to anything after boot then later connect to the internet

It would literally link your new device to your old device like what you see in movies so any part of the debotnetting process is crucial.

They don't read the metadata based from your built in information but the system app botnets would put some niggerified textfile containing all your IMEI IMSI ID with everyapp's permission to see otherwise they would create that harmless 0 bytes file with a fucking obvious serial alphanumeric filename that leads to some form of metadata - apps may have no read/write permission but everyone can access a filename so fuck you and you're already a botnet slave if you had nigger apps then used the niggernet

Yes they do some hacky shit just to build goyim metadata.

Your job is to:

disable all radio through that retarded statusbar switches

(though some really don't like wifi which detects open access networks while turned off so you gotta go airplane mode)

unlock the bootloader and install some recovery because fucking shit

remove every jewgle or chink/ botnet apps by replacing the entire rom build with a more non-botnet friendlier build that says 'fuck you google'

remove the botnet keyboard and other bloat like spellcheck or talkback bub before that install a fucking hackers keyboard. disable it then remove the app and its frameworks and .jar libs and residual odex crap if you're so hax

use a fucking non-retarded build.prop just lurk more about privacy build.prop then do some perf tweaks while you're at it

install root manager without using that niggerified supersu. get one from f-droid in case your rom didn't give you native root

then install busybox f-droid - no premium bullcrap

then install xposed framework

afwall+ - for firewalling all the fucking trash system apps

xprivacy or xprivacylua - if you're modern. this also does similar shit as hijack suite

maybe hijack suite and similar apps that random deface the retarded identifiers to be sure

a fucking decent browser like the latest build of palemoon or icecat apk (lurk more faggot) then install the blender and ublock addon as it fucking werks

after you've installed all your needed apps, you now have to afwall and xprivacy your shit then to be sure clear those app's data in case they were running on background and built some obscure textfilez. also fucking delete all the .odex files and reboot your android though it may take a while if you're not deodexed this means the RAM doesn't have the botnet executables (even if you uninstall the odex binaries still run in background at some level)

protip: use a fucking ext formatted sd card so you can enforce permissions unlike your average FATass filesystem and if your rom can't support ext then open up an issue with a subject: fuck you, ext fs support

if you guys have anything to add, you're welcome. screencap or pasta if you want.

another tip is to never shut it down.
