Runs Linux

The ZeroPhone, Runs Linux

It uses Raspbian Linux, which is currently based on Debian Jessie. This is because it can be tailored to suit our purpose very easily, and will still be /upgradable in the future – this project doesn’t need a separate distribution since that’s prone to obsolescence and is a maintenance nightmare (but I do plan on providing ready-to-go SD card images if the demand is there).

As for the user interface (controlling screen and buttons) – it’s written in Python. I’ll be using pyLCI as a base, but it’s clear for me it needs a rewrite to have all the capabilities a decent mobile phone UI should, and developing a good UI is one of the main goals of this project.

Hey guys! So it has been awhile since I worte into you, but I have been watching religiously I promise! LOL. Anyhoo, I stumbled upon something I think is pretty cool and thought I would share it.

So I have been using Arch for a long time and it is my go to distro. I am sure noth of you know that the one of the biggest hurdles against trying Arch for many folks is lack of a HUI installer. Installuing Arch has typically always been done via comman line.
UNTIL NOW!

Introducing ArchAnyWhere! Ok so I found this by accident, but I had to try it. Fortunatley, I had an okd machine sitting around waiting for me to put Linux on it. So I did. This is impressive. Installation of Arch was seamless and fast.

And yes, this is pure Arch, not a derivative. This is simply a graphical installer.
Now I perrsonally will always prefer to install Arch via cli, but this shatters the old barrier, making it easy for “noobs” to give Arch a go. So I just wanted to share.

Always a huge fan,

Subject: Getting more from ripped DVDs
Message:

I am in the process of trying to learn as much a I can about setting up content for Plex. A couple of subjects have not turned up much that is helpful in search.

MakeMkv seems to drop many of the extra feature content. Are there options I can use to get makemkv to extract more of the content.

Is there anything that can extract the menu data from a DVD? This would be helpful for naming the extras content. I know I could play the DVD and make notes on the menu. I hope to find ways to do this faster.

Is there a way to either allow Plex to play an .iso or some other format that incorporates the DVD’s original menu?

Data Protection in the Cloud

Amazon: Some data lost in cloud outage is not recoverable

\”To be told four to six hours, and then just wait and wait and wait and nothing\’s happening for three days, was beyond frustrating and maddening,\” she said. Flores also said she noticed a difference in the way Amazon worked with large sites compared to smaller ones.

Customer Data Reportedly Lost In Amazon EC2 Outage

\”A few days ago we sent you an email letting you know that we were working on recovering an inconsistent data snapshot of one or more of your Amazon EBS volumes,\” says the letter, quoted in the BI piece. \”We are very sorry, but ultimately our efforts to manually recover your volume were unsuccessful. The hardware failed in such a way that we could not forensically restore the data.\”

How Microsoft handed the NSA access to encrypted messages | World news | The Guardian

Microsoft has collaborated closely with US intelligence services to allow users\’ communications to be intercepted, including helping the National Security Agency to circumvent the company\’s own encryption, according to top-secret documents obtained by the Guardian.

The files provided by Edward Snowden illustrate the scale of co-operation between Silicon Valley and the intelligence agencies over the last three years. They also shed new light on the workings of the top-secret Prism program, which was disclosed by the Guardian and the Washington Post last month.

The documents show that:

• Microsoft helped the NSA to circumvent its encryption to address concerns that the agency would be unable to intercept web chats on the new Outlook.com portal;

• The agency already had pre-encryption stage access to email on Outlook.com, including Hotmail;

• The company worked with the FBI this year to allow the NSA easier access via Prism to its cloud storage service SkyDrive, which now has more than 250 million users worldwide;

• Microsoft also worked with the FBI\’s Data Intercept Unit to \”understand\” potential issues with a feature in Outlook.com that allows users to create email aliases;

• In July last year, nine months after Microsoft bought Skype, the NSA boasted that a new capability had tripled the amount of Skype video calls being collected through Prism;

• Material collected through Prism is routinely shared with the FBI and CIA, with one NSA document describing the program as a \”team sport\”.

Report: Microsoft collaborated closely with NSA – CNN.com

\”When we upgrade or update products legal obligations may in some circumstances require that we maintain the ability to provide information in response to a law enforcement or national security request,\” Microsoft said in its statement Thursday.
