  • Honestly I wish those developers would focus on the basics rather than esoteric input devices.

    KDE isn’t stable enough with a regular mouse and keyboard, let alone fancy input devices. It crashes WAY too often and has too many bugs which require the user to constantly have to use the terminal to work around.

    KDE: get your priorities straight and focus on basic stability and usability first.






  • Mozilla added hundreds of classes of spyware to K9 in their mozilla.telemetry.glean.* (which previous to Mozilla’s involvement was spyware free) and rebranded it “Thunderbird” and now advertise it as “privacy-focused” wow…

    From an exodus privacy scan of the code:

    603 tested signatures on 18351 classes (10929653)

  • What specific driver and linux tools do you use to throttle your CPU?

    Also throttling often produces the opposite result in terms of extended battery life as it likely takes more time in the higher states to do the same amount of work whereas running at a faster clock speed, the work is completed faster and the CPU returns to a lower less energy using state quicker and resides there more of the time.

    I would be interested to hear your results. Have you done any tests comparing a throttled versus throttled system with the tools you are using?
