Sounds good, but could you please make it so that it can also be viewed without Javascript being enabled?

I migrated from Gmail to Proton a few years ago which already took a large toll on my energy and mental capacity.

I get the feeling that in a few years even the options you suggested will have some sort of downside as well.

Doing a migration dance every few years is getting tiring and unsustainable for me.

Running my own mail server is going to be a losing race to keep me out of spam filters (which you tend find out after you discover that your mails are silently being dropped)

Honestly perhaps we should just migrate from e-mail altogether. The question is to what instead?

Bazzite recently started to ship msedit by default, which makes sense since a large portion of its userbase are first time Linux users.

It did make for quite a surprise for existing users when the msedit logo popped up in their KDE Plasma launchers though.

Not sure, but since I've installed is as a Flatpak (org.audacityteam.Audacity) I simply disable its network capabilities via com.github.tchx84.Flatseal

This way, even if they had telemetry, I wouldn't really care.

Uh... sometimes? First time I clicked it seemed to work, but a subsequent click gave me that 403 error.

For me that link says:

Don't you think that as LLMs get better the deanonimization attacks will get easier?

Also, a journalist in a hostile regime might be one example, but a user that posted _very_ personal things under an alt account is also another example, and I bet the latter is much more common than the former.

AFAIK B&W 800D is used in many mastering studio's. I wonder what they will do with their high-end / pro audio segment, since it's quite different from your average home stereo (or even hi-fi) markets.

I'd say that after numerous revelations in regards to UEFI vulnerabilities and such, an open source BIOS / EFI has become a necessity for me rather than something just nice to have.

Considering Intel's track record on hardware vulnerabilities, I'd much rather prefer AMD.

I _really_ hope they launch an AMD version (perhaps with an iGPU) soon after that. That and preferably with Libreboot support. This would make it the ideal portable laptop for me and thus I'd be able to (finally!) replace my X220T.

Does it have ECC and Coreboot / Libreboot support?

For sure this. I've recently found out that you can only pay using credit card, US bank account or Cash App.
