We’re happy to announce that BusKill can be installed on Linux directly with apt

What is BusKill?

BusKill is a laptop kill-cord. It's a USB cable with a magnetic breakaway that you attach to your body and connect to your computer.

Watch the BusKill Explainer Video for more info youtube.com/v/qPwyoD_cQR4

If the connection between you to your computer is severed, then your device will lock, shutdown, or shred its encryption keys -- thus keeping your encrypted data safe from thieves that steal your device.

Debian

BusKill can be installed on Debian with apt.

To install BusKill in Debian, execute su - and then apt install buskill

Support BusKill

We're looking forward to continuing to improve the BusKill software and looking for other avenues to distribute our hardware BusKill cable to make it more accessible this year.

If you want to help, please consider purchasing a BusKill cable for yourself or a loved one. It helps us fund further development, and you get your own BusKill cable to keep you or your loved ones safe.

You can also buy a BusKill cable with bitcoin, monero, and other altcoins from our BusKill Store's .onion site.

TL;DR: As Mozilla moves to make Firefox an AI browser, people are looking at other options. Some people are rediscovering Waterfox, a browser that has been around for a decade from independent developer BrowserWorks. In this post, I interview the founder of Waterfox - Alex Kontos, and we discuss Waterfox’s history and look towards its future. We also talk about how Waterfox thinks about AI in the browser.

TL;DR: The big tech AI company LLMs have gobbled up all of our data, but the damage they have done to open source and free culture communities are particularly insidious. By taking advantage of those who share freely, they destroy the bargain that made free software spread like wildfire.

Can someone please explain what this is ?

What could be the best way to introduce the world of computers to a kid, let's say of 6 years old, so that he learns to handle it like a toy and stops dreading it like some esoteric, arcane and recondite machine from some eldritch, enigmatic, cryptic and phantasmal world ?

Ideally speaking, if I build up my own system right from the scratch, then l ought to be in control of the root, isn't that correct ??🤓🤓🤓

Du schreibst schleifen Programmieren etc.

Das muss ja nicht nur reine Software sein.

Bei #Arduino und co blinkt, wackelt, rollt und tönt es zur Programmierung.

Das dürfte die Kids viel länger bei Laune halten und kostet nicht die Welt.

TL;DR: Mozilla is now enforcing data collection as a pre-requisite to access new features in Firefox Labs. This is backed by the Terms of Use that Mozilla introduced a few months ago.

Five years later, Wayland remains an excessively focused project for a modern display server. Wayland remains a fad, and many open-source applications remain unoptimized for Wayland.

The general procedures have not changed much since this post in 2018.

Yes, even buildings can be developed for interoperability with open source!

Was zum Geier ist das? 😯 Ich habe plötzlich bei der Installation von Debian (Netinstall Version 12.11.) keine Auswahl der Softwarepakte mehr. 1000 Mal gemacht und heute gehts nicht mehr. Hat einer eine Idee?

Hello there!

just updated a previous mentioned tool which has been in discussion here and wanted to share updates on the software status.

The software is in my opinion finished for now and tutorial videos are available, do not hesitate to ask for features if anything is missing.

Github URL: https://github.com/bugfishtm/bugfish-nuke
Documentation: https://bugfishtm.github.io/bugfish-nuke/

Features

• Instantly erase user data, application traces, and sensitive files in a single click.
• Secure deletion: Files are overwritten, not just moved to the recycle bin.
• Clear clipboard contents
• Flush DNS cache
• Erase event logs
• Delete most recently used (MRU) lists
• Remove thumbnail caches
• Empty the recycle bin (system default)
• Set overwrite passes (1 or more) for each deletion:
  • 1 pass: Fast, effective for most cases
  • 3+ passes: Higher security, slower
  • Warning: 0 passes disables overwriting and is NOT recommended
• Add your own scripts (e.g., batch files) to run alongside the deletion process
  • Example: Dismount VeraCrypt volumes automatically
• Optional: Corrupt Windows login files after deletion to prevent further access
  • Use with caution: This will render Windows unbootable and require reinstallation
• Play a custom or built-in music track during deletion
• Music stops when deletion is complete-useful as an audible signal if you step away
• Overview of selected actions before launch
• Settings for post-deletion behavior: auto-close, force restart, etc.
• Direct links to tutorials and help resources

Security Notes

• Overwriting: Files are overwritten according to your settings, making recovery nearly impossible.
• Recycle Bin: Emptied using Windows default; secure overwrite for the bin may be added in future versions.
• Custom Scripts: Scripts run independently and can be used to automate additional emergency tasks.
• File Deletion: Files are securely overwritten (unless you set passes to 0), making recovery extremely unlikely.
• Music Player: It provides an audible signal when the deletion process is finished, useful if you need to leave your computer during an emergency wipe.
• Use with Caution: Bugfish Nuke is designed for emergency situations. Use with care, especially the destructive system options.

Have a great one

Foto-Tool für den Pinguin? Ich suche ein Desktop-Programm für Linux, mit dem ich die Fotos automatisch per Gesichtserkennung nach den abgebildeten Personen gruppieren lassen kann - und ohne, dass Daten nach irgendwo übertragen werden. Hat da einer von euch einen Tipp?
