Is Debian with automatic updates a good idea?
  • On desktop I usually do manual installation of updates(mostly cos I don't want to get any important running program restarted), in servers I use automatic updates via cron job as part of the automation process, these two work for me.

  • Why don't cell phones have BIOS?
  • Cell phones do not have a BIOS like traditional PCs; instead, they use a bootloader, which serves a similar purpose. The bootloader initializes hardware and loads the operating system, but it is specific to each device's hardware, limiting compatibility with different operating systems. This lack of a standardized BIOS-like system makes it difficult for users to install alternative operating systems and leads to fragmentation in the mobile ecosystem. Manufacturers may avoid implementing a BIOS to reduce costs and maintain control over software updates.

    Freeing of ads Netflix ads plan?

    Hello pirate community, now that Netflix is ​​going to eliminate the basic ads-free plan, what is the best way to avoid said ads? I don't think that the DNS blocking will work or will it? It must be some modified app or something like that? I know that the best thing will be to get the content externally through torrents but I want something that is friendly for people who are not tech savvy. Thanks!!

    Edit: maybe at some point, the police will be able to read our thoughts to know if we are innocent or guilty with a non-invasive device.
