> But I also thought that a lady who learns Japanese is rare. Because Japanese men are not popular with ladies of the world. It looks that Japanese ladies are popular in the world. I don't think many people Japanese because they're attracted to Japanese girls. xD The number one reason is probably Japanese cartoons, and the number two reason is probably romanticism of Japanese culture. My reason was a bit more mundane: I just wanted to learn a language with a different writing system because I thought that would be cool, and then loved Japanese class to the point where I just refuse to go away from Japanese study. Plus, I still think Japanese is a great language.

No worries. Your English is way better than my Japanese, at any rate.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a perfect method to guard our communication?
I suggest you assume good faith from all posters; it's very possible for something you are interpreting as anger is something different entirely, given your skill level at English that I can see. And at the same token, don't worry about angering people. You'll be fine as long as you don't launch straight-up personal attacks.

I think I took advantage of your reply. My English and insomnia have no connection with this reply. I should have explained to you that just it was a sleepness night, so I try to sleep from now. I don't know how you felt, I am sorry if you were offended.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Free software foundations problems
Firstly, you are correct, and this is a point I have made too. At minimum Blag and Musix should be removed from the list, but to insure the list remains up to date distros should have to re-certify every few years. This way the FSF will know if this project is active. They could even have an "inactive" list on the same page if a project fires back up within a reasonable time frame. Second, Trisquel is an LTS release. This means that it will go years without an update, that is the point. LTS is stability over cutting edge. If one wants cutting edge they should utilize a rolling release distro like Parabola. However, even using that stick Trisquel 8 is late, in fact the next LTS release of Ubuntu will be out before 8 is done. That said, as someone who uses LTS specifically for stability this doesn't really bother me. As long as the next version of Trisquel is out before the current one reaches its end of life in 2019 I am happy. Now, if this community is unable to muster an updated LTS release that mirrors Ubuntu's schedule that should just be said outright. I would be completely accepting of an LTS focused distro that skips every other Ubuntu LTS release, as long as the current version doesn't lose support, and fresh ISO's are supplied for newer users. I would be equally supportive of an ETS release. The problem is Trisquel says it follows Ubuntu's schedule when it is clear it can't. This doesn't mean there is a huge problem, but rather that stated goals need to reflect reality. Trisquel's development doesn't reflect at all on the FSF, like all distro's (except GuixSD I believe) they are independent. FSF set the standards for the community to follow and communities change over time. This is very common. Ruben has a day job working in something that reflects is personal values, thats something to be respected, not derided.

Does that means that even if I get a libreboot PC, the PC still has a potential for be installed the backdoors? Not physical backdoors, via traffic. And even the free softwares are complex and bloated, probably full of bugs? It is obscure about those "the" which are "The" hardware, and "The" software of your words ( I can't say well, but probably you get it ) . Does those "the" mean that free hardwares and softwares? Even if I am a ordinary person, I will never give them critical or fatal information. That is impossible. If I get those free devices, I will use those for purely business purpose. I am a nameless painter, maybe as you know. I think that sometimes that way is best. Sending the USB stick is very useful for me, if it is possible. >What exactly is the question?

Re: [Trisquel-users] Trisquel or Trisquel Mini for a Librebooted T400 with only 3GB of RAM?
It depends, what desktop envirovment you prefer? personaly i think that 3 GB of ram are more than enough for run Trisquel runs GNOME and if you want upgrade the RAM is probably the best option. Trisquel-mini run lxde and lxde works even with 512 MB or ram, lxde is lightweight and is designed for older computers.
[Trisquel-users] Trisquel or Trisquel Mini for a Librebooted T400 with only 3GB of RAM?
I recently got my computer Librebooted to install a FSF certified GNU+Linux distribution and I decided to go with Trisquel. However, I have yet to upgrade the RAM on it to 8GB and it only has 3GB as of right now. What would you recommend I install? Trisquel or Trisquel Mini? Thanks
Re: [Trisquel-users] Free software foundations problems
The free distro's has different person assigned to them and mostly they are bei g developed by volunteers around the globe that is why they appear to be dead, mostly are probably developing on their own free time. Trisquel 8 has some issues that blocks the release and you can probably help to sort it out. I do not know if fsf funds the main developers.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a perfect method to guard our communication?
@MSuzuqi PRISM-break suggest owning your own server so you are in control of your data. If you have an ISP(internet service provider) that allows port forwarding and you can leave a librebooted device 24/7 online (not energy friendly) or just a freedom friendly single board computer (eg. beaglebone black) [energy friendly], they can act as a server and you can now host your own wallabag,mediagoblin,diaspora/gnusocial,seafile/owncloud/nextcloud,wordpress etc. You just need a free dynamic dns like nsupdate.info The only problem would be your ISP's router which is proprietary [unless can be flashed with librecmc[, your net bandwidth limit per month/day.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Free software foundations problems
i totaly agree with you a most actively developed distro would be awesome and maybe add uruk and hyperbola
Re: [Trisquel-users] Free software foundations problems
You're making some valid points. I don't think that the fsf should really "exclude" any of those distros or label it as the "best" or "most recommended" one, but they definitely should make more categories and should put the ones on top that are targeting the broadest audience. "dragora" for instance should be listed, but not as present as trisquel. Also, it would be good to have a "most actively developed distros" list, excluding ones with little development progress.

[Trisquel-users] Free software foundations problems
Hi everyone i wanted to talk about the fsf problems, this is my point of view and i wanted to know what you guys think about this topic. I know that fsf is a no profit but the way the act make no sence to me. Here there is an example https://www.gnu.org/distros/free-distros.en.html, this is the fsf recomended gnu/linux distros page, many distro here are dead or about to be(for the exception of parabola and pureOS) Probably that page is the most important on the gnu website, for obvious reasons,and is not hard work to update that page, but is like fsf couldn't care less. Imagine, you are a guy without computer skills, you hear about free software and fsf and you want to give it a try, you go on the gnu website and choose to download one of the recomended distros here, only to find out that the project is either dead or not updated, you probably go back to windows and think free software is a joke. I know that on that page there is written that fsf is not responsible for other web sites, or how up-to-date their information is,but still,these are the best distro for them, and some are far from the best... This is only bad for fsf. Another example, let's talk about Trisquel, i love Trisquel, and i know that is developed by volunteers but still tha last release is Trisquel7 (2014), and i know that Trisquel8 will be released soon, but 4 years? This lead to the next point, i find this info on this forum, fsf hired Ruben (the main trisquel developer) to work for them, and only recently Ruben started to work again full time on trisquel. This is really a bad move by them, what are they thinking? They should instead hire Ruben for work full time on Trisquel Trisquel is the most used and user friendly fsf endorsed distro, and they leave the project without a new release? One of the best fsf endorsed distro leaved to die? What you guys think? This post is my opinion, is not a troll post, if you don't agree with feel free to post why but please no flame. As always sorry for my bad english. s1lv3r
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a perfect method to guard our communication?
>I would like to listen your opinion for that too Not quite sure now whether you're asking about ricochet or your previous 2 questions. I assume it's the latter. >Hello. May I ask your opinions of two questions? 1.Is there a perfect method to guard our electrical communication against an attacks of peepers? No, there is not. The hardware you use is potentially backdoored, designed to play against you. The software you use is complex and bloated, probably full of bugs. There is no 'perfect' solution. If what you need to do could lead you to jail then what you should do is: do it offline. If a powerful and motivated adversary wants your data they will get it, sooner or later. There's a good new though: if you are a regular Joe then using encryption will help you to maintain some privacy as your noise will remain just noise. Using encryption will probably flag you though, so probably they (don't ask me who 'they' is) will check you and if they find you sufficiently interesting then they will also find a way to decrypt what is encrypted. (No, I'm not paranoid. Yes, I am a realist.) 2.About suppliers of libreboot pre-installed devices. What exactly is the question? I will just take advantage now to shill minifree and Leah Rowe for it would appear to me she is the one that was crucial and still is (I hope) in the development of the entire thing. If money wants to be thrown at then it wants to be thrown at minifree -> https://minifree.org/ I had some trouble understanding your English, I hope my answers are relevant. cheers

Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a perfect method to guard our communication?
Once upon a time, there was a French footballer whose name is like your name. But that name sounded lady surely. But I also thought that a lady who learns Japanese is rare. Because Japanese men are not popular with ladies of the world. It looks that Japanese ladies are popular in the world. The avatar looked kindly. How about letting her wear a bra? If that is awkword, how about a ribbon or something. 言われてみれば確かに女グニューですけどな。
[Trisquel-users] Re : Community guidelines question
It is still an issue (on small-width screens). Apparently, "bootstrap" provides a solution but I was trying to stay away from frameworks. Also, the version of Midori in Trisquel 7's repository get the alignment wrong (whatever the width of the screen). It may be that more recent versions would properly display the page (if so, it is fine). If you find a reliable solution, there is pasta for you the next time you go to Belo Horizonte!
[Trisquel-users] Re : Software updates on the Add/Remove Applications folder
Except for Abrowser and IceCat, the versions of the packages in a given version of Trisquel are frozen. Regular updates only fix security issues or otherwise critical bugs. LibreOffice 6 will be in Trisquel 9, probably. But, yes, you can download the .deb for your architecture on https://www.libreoffice.org/download/download/ and install it (with GDebi, in Trisquel's repository, just double-click on the .deb file).
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a perfect method to guard our communication?

Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a perfect method to guard our communication?
Most of the recommendations on prism-break are fine, so if you find it helpful, go for it. I just don't think it's a helpful reference in general. It's too unfocused.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a perfect method to guard our communication?
Hi MaybeMr. It looks you always state your opinion with its grounds. So the opinion have reasonableness. But prism-break has valuable information to me. As this is my brief, They state that people need a own surver, and a supplier agreed that opinion. I knew that there. Oh, I need my own surver too? But they are not stating that ground. So I don't still know why I need own surver, router. Tor is quite understandable since especially their site. It is difficult for me that judging information of this computer world. But, in this libre world, it seems fake information is not quite more than other worlds since maybe that is people's normal goodwill.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a perfect method to guard our communication?
privacytools.io seems fine, but I don't recommend prism-break as a reference. It's all over the place and blacklists Trisquel because it's based on Ubuntu, which just tells me they don't understand how this stuff works.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Is there a perfect method to guard our communication?
Thank you. It seems your name is Japanese. I'm a Jap. I watched Citizenfour in the next day of release, in 2016. If I remember correctly, the day of release in the West was in 2013. And there were just about 20 peoples in the cinema. And I have watched the DVD, and read maybe the snowden file. This would wanders away a bit, I like Mr. Snowden's courage and intelligence, I think he did decisive work, but although my information about it is not plenty, I don't understand why he left his family and his girlfriend behind when he went to HongKong. That looked there was some risk, especially there is USA. Did he let them move to a better safe place before he open his face to the media? I can't remember well. https://privacytools.io/ is new information. Thanks. But then, I would like to listen to your opinion for that too.

Re: [Trisquel-users] Could you help me find new or second hand Lemote Yeeloong laptop
Hello jxself, Thank you for the answer. This sounds like something where the FSF staff would need to help me with, and probably it would take a lot of their (precious) time to reconstruct and test the machine and accomplish that. At this point I would still try to look elsewhere for an already complete and working laptop, but if I won't have any success finding it, then I could probably ask the people at the FSF for assistance. Kind regards, Jan
