Yeah what sold me on the convergence was the 3GB of RAM and 32GB storage. Both should help with the choppines hopefully.

Kiwix, that I mentioned earlier is a convenient way to download the entire archives of Wikipedia, Project Gutenberg and more: https://www.kiwix.org The Zim-compressed archives are on https://download.kiwix.org/zim/
Re: [Trisquel-users] wordpress icecat ssl connection failed
Wordpress is an open source webpage-creation package that is open to new apps from just about any source, but there is insufficient vetting of new material. Users must be exceptionally vigilant that their own wordpress installations use only current and trusted apps that come from official wordpress.com sites and not from third-party authors. I looked into the consequences by examining the access logs of my own website, which does not use wordpress: https://www.pinthetaleonthedonkey.com/StatisticsAllYears/May-2018-WordPress/WordPress-attacks-MiDomane.com-May-2018.htm Summarizing those results: A worldwide 364/24/7 attack on my [non-existent] wordpress installation. Currently, even though dig wordpress.com returns two IP addresses, there are actually many more IP addresses that return "wordpress.com" upon receiving a dig -x inquiry; my current list has 67 addresses. They are all owned by a single entity and are probably legitimate. That still causes a lot of trouble for their users: dig -x 66.155.9.238 ==> PTR wordpress.com PTRwordpress.com https://otx.alienvault.com/indicator/ip/192.0.77.32 George Langford

https://www.gutenberg.org/ https://librivox.org/ https://www.wikipedia.org/ https://www.loc.gov/collections/ I could not tell you a convenient way to download the entire archives of these sites but they have free public domain books/audiobooks/etc that CAN be mass-downloaded. You could archive these in trisquel, have a fetch program which, everytime you connect to the internet will try and update. Therein is the problem, I don't know if such a fetch program could be made because there might not be consistent repositories for it to refresh from. If you are willing you personally manually could do a annual update for each year maybe?

>Simply, they give the inmate the tools needed to browse the intranet or local files, but the wide area network is out of reach. The people taking advantage of the current monetized system won't allow for that. I do agree with your stance though!
Re: [Trisquel-users] Optimizing Trisquel for Offline Computing
Software can be free libre while access to the network is limited at the same time. They are not mutually excluding. Simply, they give the inmate the tools needed to browse the intranet or local files, but the wide area network is out of reach. Only restrict as little as absolutely necessary to make the service work inside the prison system while not risking security. It could be supervised or time-restricted, or based on behaviour and earned points. If abused, the right can be revokes at any time.
Re: [Trisquel-users] Optimizing Trisquel for Offline Computing
>restricted "Prison OS" and >Free Libre system that respects user's freedoms. These things don't really belong together. If the OS is "jailed" similar to iOS/Playstation/Xbox/Nintendo, where user doesn't have root control, then can it be Free Software? What if the prison doesn't give things like the source code? By definition if it restricts root access and source code, then it can't be Free. Now, if they were actually given FREE software, and restricted in the internet. This OS could be given to everyone on tablets, especially with things like the encyclopedia, and give prisoners an offline way to transfer media on to it. All good stuff, would improve literacy / knowledge / (probably even reduce prison rape, once some clever cookies find a way to score porn) Would never happen where this is needed the most though, America has so many inmates but the focus is monetary and often the shitty mp3 and CD players they sell come loaded with DRM that are lining some company's pockets right now. It would be an uphill battle to give inmates actual rights, against lobbyist groups.

Isn't Android POSIX compliant?

>For one the camera still doesn't work LOL I'm the type of person that tapes mine up, totally not a deal breaker. >Also outside of Ubuntu Touch many of the distros are pretty choppy for performance still. Is it like early versions of Android/Palmphones/Blackberry touchscreens that would have vague (for lack of a better word) hit boxes and there is a noticeable touchscreen lag or is it more the app takes forever to load? Optimized apps will come later I know this... Honestly if you bought the Braveheart, and are buying yet the Convergence edition too that kinda says what I need to know. Thanks!
Re: [Trisquel-users] Pinephone Community Edition
Whether postmarketOS uses glibc of musl is less important. What is important is that postmarketOS is POSIX compliant.
