Looks great!
Wow! Conky! I'm in love with it.
You remind me of my distrohopping days - 4 different partitions running a new
distro every week on at least one of them. Those were the days!
I think it's a source distribution.
Bulgaria is in the EU :(
Clearly, the best choice is to host your own email and use GPG encryption.
We have at least a couple of years till the release of Trisquel 8. I hope I
will learn a bit of coding and give it a try.
That's awesome, what did you do to make it possible?
I am flattered :D Thank you, pizzaiolo and tdlnx.
6 months in the EU and 2 years in the US UK
weird i though the uk was in the eu...?
Excellent talk, I think that you got all the important points. But that host
:) Good job once again.
It is.
tdlnx asks:
Is it so bad that the person is borrowing your content? I'm not sure of the
exact details, but is the content something that could easily be published
under a CC or GNU FDL (Not sure if that would be a good license for digital
content, so it may not be the best choice.) license?
This is definitely the way to go.
Even if you can't use GPG because others refuse to use it due to laziness, at
least host your own server. It's a start!

dayum son that looks neat

Perhaps this is a weak work-around, but how you tried Google's search by
image feature? I'm not sure if it'll search ebay ads, but it's worth a shot,
right?
Nice Techbuddy!
I like conky very much. It is a very useful thing to have on the background.
I will include mine. If you have a quadcore you can easily add the other two
cores by editing the file (I have a dual core).
I just downloaded Trisquel and noticed the default browser was Abrowser and
not IceCat. Why? Where did IceCat go?
Yep, the UK is the only Country in the EU that rushed through a law to extend
it to 2 years.
But I basically agree that you'll have to host your own email, or if not use
encryption.
Problem with encrypting emails is that most recipients won't be bothered to
do it,
hence won't be able or
first time I send or reply to an email I always sign it. That way I make it
clear that I prefer using encryption. If it is only one time or two times
generic, boring, impersonal mail communication, I don't care too much, but if
it is personal and private I insist that the recipient installs
Ah, in this case you're totally right I agree. It's unethical to misrepresent
an item you have for sale and treat potential buyers badly. I was originally
under the impression they had copied a review/opinion/article for example.
IceCat is available from the repos. It is indeed not the default browser. I
don't know why that is. Could be because Abrowser tracks the most recent
Firefox build, whereas IceCat tracks the ESR release.
I'm curious... where did you see or hear that Openmail was recommended by the
FSF? I did a Google search but didn't come up with anything..
Thank you
I'll have to borrow this config, it looks great!
Hi Chris, first off, let me say that you did a great job. I've done radio
interviews before and I know it is not easy... and that was long! On top of
that, Ernie is a real personality.
I'm actually somewhat astonished that someone outside of our community is so
zealous about technological
After doing some research on my own, I learned that SquirrelMail and
RoundCube were both web-based email services that ran under the GNU General
Public License. However, after looking over this website,
http://thesimplecomputer.info/free-webmail-for-better-privacy#openmailbox I
became
SquirrelMail and RoundCube are just web applications that act as clients to
an email server... no different than Eudora or Thunderbird or Outlook, except
that they run on a web server. To use a postal analogy, this is the
Mailbox.
In order to actually send and receive mail, a mail service
It's created and used by one person and donated with the appropriate license
for others to use freely, even for commerical purposes, but it cannot be sold
without including that same sourcecode and appropriate license.
I think that maybe you misunderstand free software. Whether or not a
Indeed, if this is going to be done, maybe Trisquel should inspire in his
upstream and maintain different flavors with different .iso images for each
flavor. The thing is, someone has to develop and maintain that. Any
volunteer(s)?
On the other hand we now have several ISOs to download, perhaps this could
replace those.
So it'd either be a massive ISO that comes with Sugar, LXDE, and GNOME
flashback, or it'd be a GUI net-install ISO...?
Or we could have one GUI net-install with multiple DEs for the user to
select? But then we'd have five ISOs to choose from (Sugar, standard, mini,
hypothetical GUI
It probably wouldn't be the most user-friendly thing to add to the installer.
Considering how Trisquel is (presumably) intended to be user-friendly, adding
this option could confuse new users, especially ones brand new to GNU/Linux
that don't know what a DE is.
It's very easy to install a DE
Someone who robs the laptop could still remove the battery on the motherboard
and the BIOS password is gone. That requires a screwdriver but if your laptop
was robbed for the data on the disk, that is not much of an obstacle.
I like openmailbox.org as well. I've never had any problems with their
services.
Thanks!
Though usually I prefer to install from repos...
Trisquel 8 will be based on Ubuntu 16.04, which will be released in April
2016.
That would be helpful. One of the first things I do is update and install
XFCE4 because I can't stand the default GNOME desktop.
I'm not sure if there's an option for that, but it would be very nice! I
haven't done much messing around other than building and flashing.

Going Minimal! Nice and clean, buddy.
That's very good news. Does it provide an ARM port? I couldn't find any
information about that.
Very cool, about time. :)
For those who are intrested, this is the distro that Gluglug want to come
pre-installed on future Libreboot systems.

Wow that host... he's fired up but totally on the ball even if the details
are a little off. :P
As for you, way to go! Your message is right on target, you can't go wrong
with it, also good to see you mention Gluglug even if not in name. ;)
Wow, that looks neat!
I use riseup. I recommend riseup and https://ruggedinbox.com/
ruggedinbox is great for many reasons and it's a better option (IMHO) than
openmailbox.
thx
I think SuperTramp83 is right in recommending ruggedinbox, as its servers
are hosted off-shore
and are therefore outside of EU or mostly other legislation.
Sadly, all companies, ISP's, or any one hosting emails has to comply to
lawful regulations,
which state that all electronic
¿Has anyone successfully installed a RAID + LVM system with Trisquel 7.0?
Thanks in advance
I would love to have Icecat in Debian's repos, would like to try it out :)
No need for repos, just download the generic linux binary and execute icecat.
http://mirror.cedia.org.ec/gnu/gnuzilla/31.7.0/
May I suggest adding this link?
http://www.insanitybit.com/2012/05/31/compile-and-patch-your-own-secure-linux-kernel-with-pax-and-grsecurity/
Grsec + linux-libre = damn secure linux kernel! Perfect for our GNU.
Actually following ESR would be a good thing... less work and more time, less
new features more security. Tor Browser uses ESR and works like a charm :)

just for the fun of it at least!
Yea- I have no idea how to pronounce Gluglug. That was a huge marketing snafu
on Francis's part. I'd probably have mentioned it otherwise. I think I've
mentioned fsf.org/ryf elsewhere when talking to people in relation to
how/where to get it.
Thanks for those links.
It seems to me that this is all a big mess, and only time will solve
anything... people are trying to do things in one way and another, but
computers are so complicated that you always end up fucking up somehow...
Maybe the LibreSSL is a good approach, but it does
One question out of curiosity: can you set a BIOS password with Libreboot?
Since it is free software and there is no hidden master password, setting
such a password would make that machine quite secure :)
