Not only did I read the article, what you have quoted further confirms the misleading title, the source is anonymous and there is an interpretation of intent, not direct or open admission.

Could the CCP be responsible, absolutely, is there clear evidence of admission, rather than international diplomatic posturing, not at all.

If you believe there is a clear factual open admission and ownership of guilt by the CCP then please point me to it.

Some leaders are not so subtle in international interactions when making threats, even in the full glare of public media.

The title is misleading, rather ‘Two anonymous observers in secret Biden talks claim Volt Typhoon has been responsible for intrusions into vital critical infrastructure’.

Click bait headlines and journalism are as much a threat to democracy and independent critical thought as the CCP.

What browser are you using and can you please post a site with embedding that does not work for you.

I have Librewolf, Ublock set to medium mode, libredirect Redirect Type set to both, Embed Frontend set to Invidious but with no instance selected.

Most sites with embedded youtube have ‘Watch on Youtube’ bottom left and you can just right click and select Redirect in librediract. Some don’t have that but most allow right click where you can select the url that can be pasted into FreeTube.

You can set libredirect to use FreeTube.

Yet another corporate self-serving move that should highlight the need for de-googling, but with a monopolist controlling information flow how many will notice, and if they do, how many will recognize there are counter options, even if made difficult by the dominant web player…I would like to say it is blatantly time to break up big tech, but realistically I can’t see that happening, given regulatory capture of US politics, on both sides, as an outside observer.

I appreciate the /s, the sad fact is that we don’t need AI to figure out a ‘solution’ for climate change, we already know how to do that, the issue is the lack of political will to curb emissions, which is not something AI can fix.

There are lots of choices, but personally I would go with Linux Mint as something likely familiar and packaged with pretty much all the basics for the use case you outlined.

Perhaps I am incredibly naive, but for me a “Forever mouse” is something you buy, own, and have control absolute over!

No, a software or hardware KVM lets you use the same keyboard and mouse across multiple devices.

Have a look at software KVMs, for a similar functionality.

A simple usb KVM should do the trick of easily switching between the two.

I use Resolve Studio, that gives you access to all Resolve features but it does not fix codec licensing issues at the Linux OS level.

And there is angst re AI hallucinating, seems that also affects HR.

Mention is made of Resolve, which does work great as a professional grade video editor, and in the next breath codec issues are raised, which are not a Linux issue but proprietary licensing issue.

For a simple workaround in Mint go to: /home/UserName/.local/share/nemo/scripts

Create 2 files to convert videos from the right click menu and make them executable in the Permissions:

#!/bin/bash

for file; do ffmpeg -i “$file” -c:v dnxhd -profile:v dnxhr_hq -pix_fmt yuv422p -c:a pcm_s16le -f mov “${file%.*}”.mov

done

And:

#!/bin/bash

for file; do ffmpeg -i “$file” “${file}”.mp4

done

Any public data exchange has an element of risk, but the management/priority of that risk relates to your relevant risk matrix/profile.

Any exposed data transverses via a provider, be it mobile or Wi-Fi is pertinent, if you are concerned about provider vulnerabilities and exposure, be it Wi-Fi or mobile, use a VPN and related encryption.

Awesome job…I have a Pi5 arriving later this week so I now know what will be my first test project!

Are there any videos of Pi-card in action?

Depending on your need FrapeBooks may be worth a look: https://frappebooks.com/

It will get worse with AI joining the fray!

I think your first point totally valid and justified, though the second is a little more nuanced, including Proton Mail making promotional mileage out of some genuine privacy and potentially security related concerns.
