⚠️ Important news

There's a new @fdroidorg app called #AirGuard protecting you from being tracked by AirTags.

It scans your surroundings for devices that someone might have put into your pocket to track you via #Apple's #FindMy surveillance network and alerts you if a device is following you.

Schon gemerkt, dass anonymes Surfen mit dem #TorBrowser nicht mehr langsam ist?

Das liegt u.a. an dem Tor-Server, den wir vor gut 1 Jahr angeschafft haben:

Inzwischen bewegt er ca. 6% des Datenverkehrs zw. Tor-Netz und Klarnetz.

sooo... after i almost got used to use FN and CTRL as built by Lenovo...

Someone pointed me to the very hidden Lenovo Keyboard manager - which you can not find via Programs or System Control...

C:\Program Files\Lenovo\HOTKEY\kbdmgr.exe

And it seems to also be accessible via FN+F11 - i never noticed this...

Finally i could switch FN and CTRL via GUI....😳

Hope the laptop they are expected to give me (regular exchange) in October does not make any problems...

My next laptop will maybe be a Framework Laptop! If you take a similarly configured Dell XPS 13, even the price is similar... And you get the upgradability extra!
