Slim Down Debian Install
  • You can start with dpigs. Then start marking packages automatically installed with apt-mark. aptitude may be a good frontend when removing a lot of packages, you can mark entire categories, like libraries, as automatically installed.

    Pay attention to the package headers when removing packages. You don't want to remove essential packages.

  • Intel Linux Patch Would Report Outdated CPU Microcode As A Security Vulnerability
  • The Linux kernel would maintain a list of the latest Intel microcode versions for each CPU family, which is based on the data from the Intel microcode GitHub repository. In turn this list would need to be kept updated with new Linux kernel releases and as Intel pushes out new CPU microcode files.

    Sounds like that would be outdated for everyone without a rolling distro.

  • [Steam] OXENFREE II: Lost Signals ($1.99 / 90% off)
  • https://www.pcgamer.com/games/adventure/another-reminder-that-your-digital-library-isn-t-forever-oxenfree-will-be-completely-removed-from-itch-io-next-month/

    Oxenfree, the gloomy adventure game from Night School Studio, will leave indie game storefront Itch.io on October 1, according to an email sent to users who own it this week. And nobody, including anyone who has the game in their library, will be able to download it after it's fully removed.

    Stay away from Night School Studio now that Netflix owns it.

  • Saako yksityisviestejä seuloa lasten suojelemiseksi? Näin Suomen mepit vastaavat
  • Tällaista ennakkosensuurijärjestelmää (joka muuten voi olla Suomen perustuslain vastainen) ei oikein voi toteuttaa teknisesti 1) yksityisyyttä varjellen 2) väärinkäytökset estäen 3) tietoturvaa heikentämättä TAI edes 4) itse ongelmaa korjaten.

    Viimeisen osalta yksi ongelma on se, että tässä luotaisiin järjestelmä, jolla pedofiilit voisivat helposti testata, että minkälaisilla muokkauksilla materiaali saadaan läpi kaikista tarkastusta käyttävistä järjestelmistä. Eli lopputuloksena tilanne olisi huonompi kuin nykyisellään.

    Mutta jos nyt rehellisiä ollaan, niin eihän tässä ole kyse lapsipornosta vaan siitä, että halutaan luoda sensuurijärjestelmä, jota eri tahot voivat sitten pyrkiä laajentamaan taloudellisia intressejä varjellen.

  • Running Steam and games securely
  • This is a topic I would like to do something about. I'm not comfortable running games with full access to my home directory.

    I hope someone with firejail or bubblewrap setup can share their thoughts.

    Native call recording in 2024?

    Are there any recent Android models that have native call recording enabled in EU?

    I will root the phone if necessary, but considering that Google is closing the platform down even more by making custom/rooted ROMs fail security checks, I would prefer to avoid that.

    How to anonymize logs before sharing?

    Many projects ask to share lots of logs when reporting issues. It's difficult to go through all the logs and redact informarion such as usernames, environment variabled etc.

    Any ideas on how to anonymize logs before sharing? Change your username to something generic?
