Keep Android Open (Need Your Help!)

Rainons,

https://keepandroidopen.org/
https://keepandroidopen.org/cta/#consumers

At the time of this thread's creation, there are 125 days left until Google pushes a forced update to all available Android phones which block the use of third party apps by developers who have not verified their app using government ID, and place further restrictions on people's ability to download and use third party applications.

This cannot happen. Open Android stores like F-droid will fundamentally be broken, and Google will completely control the Android application ecosystem.

I would sincerely appreciate a moment of your time to take one or more of the following actions to change this outcome:

#0 Do not believe you are useless: if you believe that nothing can be done and this is not able to be changed, think positively! Change can happen with action!

#1 Spread the word: let others know this is happening and what they can do to help out, this could be friends, family, social media, onion forums, other boards, anything.

#2 Make a complaint(s): head to https://keepandroidopen.org/cta/#consumers, locate a country, and make one or multiple complaints about this issue. Please be sincere and professional in your responses, and use Alphabet Inc or Google in the target business. Most PII in the form is not required or can be faked if you like.

#3 Download a third party store: visit https://f-droid.org (http://fdroidorg6cooksyluodepej4erfctzk7rrjpjbbr6wx24jh3lqyfwyd.onion/index.html.en) and download the APK, verification instructions are here: https://f-droid.org/docs/Verifying_Downloaded_APK. They have an amazing software suite!

#4 Read and share the open letter: https://keepandroidopen.org/open-letter

If Google gets away with this, it will become the norm. Make your voice heard now. You will be helping yourself and everyone around you who carries an Android phone, and setting a precedent for other handset providers that they cannot follow in Google's footsteps without severe punishment and backlash.

Hello rainaons. I'm having troubles with fonts on my artix linux. As you can see some characters aren't rendered correctly. First picrel is warosu.org without monafont. Second picrel is the website after applying the font. Some characters are now rendered properly but it's not the case for all of them. What to do?
Here's where I downloaded monafont : https://sourceforge.net/projects/monafont/

arch sucks. I didn't like that it wasn't as minimalistic as I wanted it to be, didn't find basic minimal tools I use, like wtf, where's st? If you want something "working out of the box" you have to install bunch of shit you will never use, and along the way you trust so much people in the process... BOO-HOO-HOOO.
Short verdict is that those memes you see on the web are made by baseless shills who want you to suffer a bit. Even fed distros don't shill their pet projects so much as do archfags. Let's be real, they need put a RED sign on their website "NEEDS SOME ASSEMBLY". You're not a jewtube distro reviewer, right.

OpenBSD thread

is this true rainon?
https://dataswamp.org/~solene/2024-11-15-why-i-stopped-using-openbsd.html
is obsd just blows up in your face with hellfire and deletes your data? i used obsd for 5 picoseconds and it was rock solid, as a server though, and 0,23 picoseconds as desktop.
All i know is that it lacks fast filesystems (joke), which i asked around and NOBOD.Y. responded, but if it brokes itself, then nugh-ugh, not gonna make it.... XDDDD

PC/Components Acquiring

For a while I have been intending to upgrade or get a new PC. It is quite a lot of things to handle and get comfortable with but my main issue is honestly how to even budget in 2025 and to acquire components that arent high end (whilst ignoring the techbros that insist and only list the high end when doing research)

So how does anyone else acquire their components?
factory sealed or used?
old or new?
Do you look into the next 5 years?
Do you buy power that you just don't need?

Linux ML-AI NIDS

i would like to build a network intrusion detection system on linux my end goal is to detect some irregular network activiy (scan or ddos) im terrible at programming and this is the maximum i think i can do

i think it would be possible to use machine learning for pattern detection and ai for a attack summary but i dont know what to use for packet capture and im scared of eBPF and the documentation i see isnt friendly

anyone have tooling suggestions or tutorials? the project i think is most similar is sharpeye but maybe someone knowns something else
