I just use whatever is included with the desktop environment. On KDE and GNOME launching an application involves pressing the Super (“Windows”) key, typing the first couple of letters of the application I want to launch and pressing the return key.
I might be missing something here but I don’t know how other launchers could possibly make this a simpler process.
Show 'em, that’ll teach these nasty fanboys! Reads like writing that got you a big dopamine rush.
I agree, commenting “Use Firefox!!!1!11” on every post remotely related to (other) browsers doesn’t help anybody, just like commenting “Use Linux!!!1!11” on every post about a vulnerability in Windows doesn’t contribute anything meaningful at all.
Look, I also disagree with what Mozilla is doing here and yes, they 100% deserve the flak they are getting for it. But - like most things in life - it’s not black and white. Firefox could still be less intrusive to your privacy than Chrome (I’m not saying it necessarily is, but it could be that way). A different example: your mail provider could track every time you login to your account, or it could analyze and track the content of every email you receive. One is clearly worse than the other, right?
Which browser(s) do you recommend/use?
There is no definitive roadmap.
Let’s see if this really affects all Linux systems or if the stars need to align for this to actually be exploitable.
I had an “Unknown” app using my microphone on the Apple Watch from time to time. Turns out it was the handwashing detection. Nowadays it’s labelled correctly.
This can also be an app that you (very) recently deleted, but as the dot is still showing it’s indicating that the microphone is in use right at this moment. I would assume it’s a system service that isn’t properly labelled (maybe something to do with iOS 18 being so new and it was an oversight), but I don’t know which system service would need to use the microphone.
Is this persistent across reboots?
The part where it says “Unknown” is usually where the name of the app is:
The “Apple TV” is Apple hardware.
I’m not sure how that would help in letting lost people go.
How do you not do that? It’s all in your local network, how would it not work offline…?
To me it’s something I just don’t want to have to think about. I already pay a lot for the device either way, so I want it to just work and not juggle around apps/media/etc.
My current iPhone is a 512 GB model and current usage is around 210 GB with photos already in iCloud. Record a couple of 4K videos and a 256 GB model would be full in no time (before uploading to the cloud, which can take a while when you’re on the go with flaky network conditions).
My next phone will have at least 512 GB again, and I’m thinking about 1 TB as well, although the upgrade pricing is quite steep.
Yeah, duplicate flags should just be ignored.
To be fair, a big portion of the work that goes into Linux (at least the kernel) is done by paid developers working for big corporations.
Considering Intel is behind TSMC as well, China might be quite close to Intel then.
More than enough for Apple to bend to pretty much everything the Chinese government is asking for.
See if you can find a (used) GPD Win (Max).
Otherwise maybe a used (~2016) 12" MacBook.
Other than that maybe some DIY solutions.
It’ll be cheaper if the device can be a little bigger, plenty of dirt cheap used 13" laptops out there.
I agree, once you factor in a power supply (or PoE hat), case and storage a Raspberry Pi really isn’t all that cheap anymore nowadays. Unless you have a project that specifically benefits from the GPIO pins or the form factor, just get a cheap barebones mini PC or a used one with RAM and SSD already included.
This will get you a system that’s way more powerful even if it’s a couple of years old (the Pi’s SoC is fairly weak) and I/O throughput is no contest, normally with at least a dozen PCIe lanes to use for NVMe storage or 10 gigabit network cards, if you so desire.
Around 15 TB migrating to a new NAS.

They can and they are making their own chip designs to do the job.
The cloud part of Apple Intelligence runs on their own designed hardware.
