Wasn’t the tablet already an eReader?

Reminds me of the WorldBike project.

Looks great!

Looks nice and gets good reviews!

Fish has continued to add bash compat over time.

He didn’t say he needed to make money farming.

Yes. One thing that motivated me was comparing side-by-side the C920’s result with my iPhone’s webcam. My test subject is a black cat in a black cat bed. With the C920, it’s just one black blob. With the iPhone camera, you can at least see the distinction between the bed and the cat.

C920 is good enough for meetings. I solved the focus problem using the traditional Linux method of writing of udev rule which launches a timer when it’s plugged in, which periodically launches a systemd service, which runs a bash script to make sure it self-corrects at least every 5 minutes.

Moneydance. That was a choice made years ago. It works fine, but we haven’t reviewed the options in years. On the plus side, Moneydance is cross-platform, syncs to a remote server, has mobile apps and is reasonably priced.

My wife has used Linux for over a decade. She primarily uses a web browser, office suite and a money management app.

Those have all been well-covered by Linux for years.

I’m ready for post-flat design.

ChromiumOS is Linux.

HTTPS is real and tested.

Are Parity Flags legal in Florida?

If you use the AWS load balancer product or their certificates, they have access to the private key, regardless of whether you forward traffic from the LB to the container over HTTPS or not.

If you terminate the SSL with your own certificate yourself, Amazon still installs the SSM agent by default on Linux boxes. That runs as root and they control it.

If you disable the SSM agent and terminate SSL within Linux boxes you control at AWS, then I don’t think they can access inside your host as long as you are using encrypted EBS volumes encrypted with your key.

With what? HTTPS has to terminate the encryption somewhere and that place has to have the private key to do so.

CloudFlare is providing the same service here as all other hosts of HTTPS websites do.

Chromebooks are sold in both architectures. The Arm Chromebooks may be cheaper and have better battery life.

It’s not who issues the cert that matters, it is who hosts it. Hosting it includes having the private key. You always have to trust your website host, full stop.

Chromebooks have a great builtin support for running Linux in a container. No need to wipe and re-install. And they are consistently cheap and often small.

A older Dell XPS 13 could be good too.

One of the services they provide is free SSL certificates. As part of that, they have the private key to decrypt the traffic. They aren’t trying to hide that— this is true of any service that hosts the SSL cert for your site.
