ADFENO is right as usual. We should not allow Google to control our access to
videos or information in any other form. Try to acquire information from other
sources when you can, and if you have videos or other media to share I
recommend MediaGoblin as a replacement for YouTube, DeviantArt, and
Facebook is designed to addict its "users" with what its former vice-president
describes as "dopemine-driven feedback loops."

That is correct. But there is no magic: if you send little information, then
little information is received on the other side. If you add noise, the

Just for the sake of privacy investigation I tested the same way Thunderbird

I used to use http://meet.jit.si or http://vroom.im to do videotelephony

enhanced privacy settings in Abrowser that I could reverse? What

I automatically assumed that you were running a 64 bit machine. If this
is not the case, the 32 bit patch was a slightly lower priority (because
fewer people use 32 bit) so it was just released this morning for Uruk,
which may or may not have a separate repo.

I am assuming that you are using a 64 bit machine without asking first.
I don't believe that the 32 bit kernel has been patched yet so my X60s
and other 32 bit machines are not online right now except to check if
it's my turn yet.
This must be so frustrating for you.
Yes, libreboot does use a different GRUB. Ariella, I don't have much
experience with the libreboot grub and I'm very spottily online right
now but I'll try to poke around and see if I can turn up anything useful

Linux-libre is what I'm attempting to use, and if you read all my posts
you'll see that I have already followed all the steps in the documentation
including the aliasing of grub.cfg to libreboot_grub.cfg for libreboot.
Autoremove has not been removing them. Tried that many times. :)
The GRUB_TIMEOUT variable, in /etc/default/grub, defines the number of
seconds before booting the default (unless a key is pressed)... except that,
in your case, the GRUB configuration you edit does not apparently have any
influence!
If you find where to configure the GRUB you actually
Right-click on the post number (in its upper-right corner, prefixed with
"#"), copy the link and paste it in your post.
It looks like "Trisquel's GRUB" is not used on your system. Indeed, that is
not the menu your grub.cfg defines (and that should boot the latest kernel).
There must be another GRUB somewhere. Probably something specific to
Libreboot.
It is just that jxself has recently put version 4.14.13 in his repository.
Hey, I do appreciate all the help and guidance here that I have been on the

- what is "cd"? and which folder should I "cd" it into and what
I'm not an advanced user, nor a Libreboot user, nor I like to deal with

an interesting suggestion:
I suspect this is the step which is remaining (search for "Libreboot"):

Hmm.. makes me wonder what I might be running, I'll have a look at the
gnome-system-monitor. Do you like that better than the KSysGuard and the MATE
system monitor that comes with Trisquel 8?
Thanks, I did not know about these things.
Makes me feel kind of sad that I didn't read this before fuzzing with all
these youtube packages.. anyway, better late than never :)
