- chovyblue: which laptop you get?
- dreamrealdang if I was ordering a laptop today that wasn't a mac I don't know what I'd get - a framework, MAYBE, or a system76, not sure
- bluechovy: T480 thinkpad
- dreamrealoh, so one that will last forever instead
- dreamrealthere will be cockroaches using it someday :D
- dreamrealWow, my system76 and framework configurations are more than my mac was by a lot
- bluemac=dumpster fire
- bluedreamreal: I bought the T480 refurbished, from poland. I replaced the internal battery, the external battery, and the keyboard. it's basically as good as new
- dreamrealYep, those things are tanks, but I'd disagree on the macs being dumpster fires
- blueYes, I never said you couldn't be wrong

- blueit's good I don't use firefox anymore :P
- phalethgoogle also announced todays that there is a CVE in chromium that is actually worse than firefox' ones
- phalethone*
- blueno one uses that browser anymore, anymore. it's more of a cargo cult
- blueanyway*
- phaleththe patch is available on debian, so lets patch
- phalethwhich browser you mean?
- bluefirefox
- phalethyeah, but there are clones of firefox that follow it closely
- phalethanyway, if you use chromium based browser, which is highly likely then you should update
- phalethjust realized that I have added librewolf to debian via external sources, that's why I could update https://images4.imagebam.com/af/b4/0a/ME1AS6F7_o.png
- phalethif I used firefox that comes with debian I'd prolly not be able to update to get the patched version at the moment

- phalethlooks like bugs in chromium stay longer on windows and mac than on linux
- bluehow surprising!

- phalethright, things have always been developed on linux first, and I'd guess there is at least one month of time in between release of 144.0.7559.75 and release of 145.0.7632.75

- jreicherI keep hearing Firefox is better for security/privacy, but I could well believe that's hype. Judging from the emails I see that it sends, however, thunderbird seems good.
- blueI haven't used thunberbird in ages in ages... but I used firefox for a long time, until they did like a forced AI thingy, that ended it for me
