It’s interesting to see how much nixos grew over the last 2 years, even though the distribution exists since 2003.

25 years ago the system was setup as a quick temporary solution.

I moved from proton to mailbox a few months ago and so far I’m really happy with it too

Yes, about this case of I remember well they provided the IP address of the activists.

Any email provider has to follow the law and will have to provide the information they have. The only diffidence of that in the case of proton the information they have is the IP address you used to connect to their service. For another provider the information might be all the content of your email.

The imprompted praise to Trump from proton CEO on the other hand is more concerning.

If I understand well you want to have the same OS, software, configuration and files on different devices.

You could have a look at nixos.

I’m doing something similar, I have a computer in my office for work and a laptop at home for personal use and a bit of work.

I have a config shared between the two computers, they share similar modules but also have their own specificities.

This way when I configure VSCode for example I get the configuration synced on both.

For synching my files I’m using a synology NAS.

From another article

The GDM724x is removed for supporting the GCT GDM724x LTE chip based USB modem devices. This driver was merged back in 2013 but is being removed now as the driver isn’t being maintained and yields a maintenance workload, the manufacturer GCT doesn’t respond to any emails/support, there doesn’t appear to be any of the said chips easily available for purchase, there is not any hardware documentation available, and no apparent usage of this driver remaining in the Linux community. Removing the driver clears out 3.6k lines of code and lowers the maintenance burden for other kernel developers.

There was also a vulnerability discovered in July linked to this driver.

So yeah I understand that they chose to remove some drivers from the kernel.

I have a synology NAS with all my documents and family photos. I’m using the synology drive app on Linux and synology photo on android.

All of that is backed up on Backblaze
