Lol. Imagine thinking TP Link takes security seriously.

Microsoft and Lenovo

What are you confused by?

Anything that doesn’t have an external connector or some way to mount one. One example would be if you were using a USB Wi-Fi radio and wanted to connect it to the internal USB connectors but you’d need to pass the antenna to the outside of the case.

Not just for water cooling. It’s for cables that pass in or out too.

TP Link is backdoored trash

I’d love to meet the engineers who work on these “features”. How do they go along with this shit and sleep at night?

This is the result of Microsoft being so cozy with hardware vendors.

You’re the one that made the claim that they’re the “only mainstream brand that cares about Linux”. It’s up to you to prove it.

What $10/yr vps are you using?

You sure about that?. Where does this myth come from that Lenovo cares about Linux users?

“clean install” is Windows-user logic. Doesn’t apply to Linux.

Do git checkout master instead of git checkout beta

Lol, people are using Brave?!

should I develop for Amarok or Fooyin?

Fooyin would be my bet. The development is much much more active than Amarok and is a ground up new program, not a codebase from decades ago.

And now there’s a foobar2000 on Linux

Sorry for your loss. I went through this myself today. I’m devastated.

are they just kissing Microsoft’s ass?

This. 100%. It’s why I don’t understand folks recommending Lenovo laptops to run Linux on. Lenovo is in bed well Microsoft and caters to whatever they want. SecureBoot, modern standby, etc. We need more vendors supporting open source firmware like Coreboot.

Edit: feel free to refute me instead of just down voting.

Fedora is probably the closest you can practically get.
