There were partially libre attempts - Mer and Maemo. Now Librem 5 from Purism got fully funded (1), so in a year you'll have a fully free phone. The market for a fully free phone is there but it's small(ish). Hopefully they'l

It's pretty much the same story in Poland.

My best guess as an uninformed lurker and a Keybase user is that it's too early to know. You would have to know what's the impact of "sunsetting" features and for that you probably need more than 180k early adopters. In

Package availability issues -> there are PPA's for everything. A less known thing about LTS releases is that the repos are smaller because of the testing they have to do to make it up to LTS standards. Main reason I moved from 16.04

Yep, though I've been upgrading that system since Mint 14 (with Cinnamon). Compared to Arch the maintenance cost is orders of magnitude lower. Compared to Ubuntu (2y, at work, upgraded from 16.04 LTS -> 16.10) it feels higher mainly

From my 4 years with Mint on a light usage PC I can say is no better than a rolling release. The main difference is that you can be sure Mint will break after a version upgrade. Arch on the other hand will make you copy/paste wiki issu

In essence that's a concept worth spreading. For example see how the Google memo debacle, or how Trumps president run news were formed to fit the particular outlets readership for maximum rage-views and/or confirmation sympathy. A

It's not. When you decrypt one file you have all of your passwords in-memory (terminal, clipboard, browser extension, qtpass). When you do that for one login/password pair you only expose that pair, not all of the others.

s/they/he/ Pass is pretty much a glorified bash script using GPG and Git. Adding filename encryption on top would be a nightmare, not to mention that terminal suggestions would be pretty much broken.

At one project we had that pushed over to QA. We didn't have to touch it. Report a problem form sent an email to JIRA allowing us to scrape the influx of 400 daily reports for potential issues. It was pretty helpful in diagnosing a Sam

I guess this can be easily fixed by flashing a gapps package on the guest Android image. That is if flashing stuff is actually supported.

If there's hardware-accelerated video decoding for DRMed streams exposed to the guest OS then it should. That is if there's a x86 supporting APK for each one too.

In current state it will probably crash on more complex stuff. In two years if there's no widespread adoption it will still crash because it's just another potential platform for QA to test on. Also if I'm not mistaken it wil

It's not exactly ideal for CI. We had to run uiautomator tests on Jenkins to get sensible real-world device coverage. On top of that these were a pain to maintain as each device required things to be done a little differently. Not to m

Once upon a time I had to manually disable ROBOTS.txt parsing in one crawler just to stress test a staging machine for a friend. The lesson from this is that ROBOTS.txt works as long as everyone follows a line set in sand.
