Here is how I did it :

Get a list of installed packages originating from AUR using 'yay' :

  yay -Qam > packages_aur.last
Get list from https://md.archlinux.org/s/SxbqukK6IA# :

  curl https://md.archlinux.org/s/SxbqukK6IA/download > compromised.txt
then :

  grep -wFf compromised.txt packages_aur.last
should spit out the packages that are in both files, hence were compromised at some point, I guess.

Does this mean that each software you run is now the size of a windows install + sw or is it a single container that runs all your softwares ?

Well yes, finally, optimizing instead of throwing silicon, water and electricity at it until it works. Thats the way.

"lleu.site" might not be the clearest in regards to what the service offers. It reads too nerd. Something like "easyweb.site" or "yourown.site" might better describe it.

Spot on :

> Someone once said that “AI feels amazing when it’s talking about a subject you know nothing about, but is laughably wrong when you do”.

> Someone else also said “I want AI to do my laundry so I can make Art, not make my Art so I can do laundry”.

Well of course a DSLR will be better than a phone camera for most things, since you can control more features. That's also the point of OpenCamera; get as much controls as you can back, compared to the stock app that might be lacking. It wont do miracles if your phone camera is not good to begin with.

I've found OpenCam to be useful because of the various optional features ( onionskin, levelmeter, locking settings ). You can also set the bitrate/size/duration of videos, etc. Lots of useful stuff.

Took me far too long to realize this is 13 yo.

Looks like the service is still up.

EDIT: They also offer a service to ssh into various vintage systems, which is cool : https://sdf.org/?ssh

That's what reverse-centaurs are for; being an accountability sink.

Well I still think it's something to worry about before you end in front of a "Your account has been suspended" notice. How can you be sure someone has the whole dataset locally backed up ? Plus, you still have to reconfigure the workflows and stuff like that. Not to mention that sometime, project's websites are also hosted on github, so that's something else you have to rebuild.

And also, this means devs/contributors have to give their data to MS.

Since the whole point of the project is sovereignty, it should have started with setting up their own gitea/gitlab/etc. instances and domains.

And yet, the project is hosted on MS github... So much for sovereignty :facepalm

So what happens to the 500,000+ users when Trump tells MS to nuke the repo/infra ?

IMHO I think you should write a post/readme/gist describing/demonstrating your browser's key features, with screencap if possible, maybe upload it to gitlab/github/other. It will fare better than asking strangers to download random files from a google drive link. (Although I saw your * is not a virus disclaimer, I still don't thin it's the optimal way to share a work you invested a lot of time on.)

Before that, author was banned for 1 month by the PMos team :

  After a short introduction I was told that the reason for the call was:
  1.I used the wrong pronouns.  
  2.The COVID thing.
  3.I promoted AI within the postmarketOS channels.

I'm not quite sure how you get from IP law abrogation to 'quasi-nationalization', care to explain your reasoning here ?
