That’s what they use to say here, too.
Still inventions and „creations“ while employed have their own law and regulation. I don’t know them in detail, but I understand that it can be fuzzy and complicated.

Wettbewerbsverbot is yet another issue, when you switch to a competitor.
Say I’m programming fullstack for my employer and start a Web App as hobby. How do I prove that this is not based on training my employer paid for? If it is in a totally unrelated field it would be easier.


My old contract says otherwise. The contract was generous enough to allow me to invent something in totally unrelated fields. Question would be how to proof that the work didn’t enable me to invent that stuff.


Sadly not the way it works, in Germany. The employer can argue that the employment enabled you technically to invent something or to build something (Germany).
EDIT: Emphasized again, that I talk about the situation in Germany. Guys… laws differ in countries and we got a own law that rules on that topic.


I sync using jottacloud (given that I use the database on my smartphone in a read only fashion)
There is a CLI for linux.
See, I run a stripped Windows for playing games that don’t run under linux. I update it regularly and nothing intrusive was re-added by updates. The other systems I use are linux and macOS, with each OS having its purpose.
In acknowledge that Linux is not intrusive and that you have to have PiHoles and other DNS sinkholes for a basic protection, which is hard for regular people. But in the end you have to look at peoples needs and if somebody insists he needs Windows, and you are knowledgeable in IT stuff, make it as secure and clutter free as possible.
There are some good tools to create stripped ISOs and to adjust running installations.
Feel you. If you are tech savvy you can debloat Windows for them and get rid of recall and the online accounts.


Perfect. I thought about some kernel level shenanigans which could be out of influence for third party vendors.


Is this verified, or does it still depend on how the mechanism is implemented?


The quote says: “this is not a dialog”. I’m arguing against Düpont as they failed to initiate a dialog the several times they tried to pass the exact same regulation.


For crying out loud… she is right. After she/they didn’t initiated the much needed dialog (for the xth. time), this was a protest note, sent by those they were talking about, but not listening to. Still a very democratic process.


Good point. To get back to the original question, I wouldn’t change the distro unless they are known to be slow with security updates. Anything debian and ubuntu based should work just fine.


Yes. That is part of the insight. But the auto upgrade is a good practice for Desktop PCs, too. And the article shows, that there are vectors and counter measures. Root kits are known for ages.


I guess the problem is not “the truth” but a claim without sources combined with a short communication style for a really complex matter.
Even the link you posted just reporte of one malware instead of the current state or perception of the problem. Like a general threat assessment instead of one incident.


Thank you!
I add this overview article https://www.geeksforgeeks.org/ethical-hacking/what-is-linux-malware/


This is dangerously unspecific.
If three out of three platforms isn’t enough, you might want to go with vim. I guess it is ported to all platforms available.
Sublime is a text-editor on steroids. It has so many good extensions, it feels like an IDE.
Anyhow: paying for good software is a no-brainer, if it safes you troubles and time, and especially if yourself are a dev, too (depending on others to also pay for your work). Also there are fair company licenses in case a firm is involved.
And finally: you can use sublime without paying. There will he a pop up dialog every 50 start or so. It’s really not annoying and fair.
I’m repeating what was in my German valid, and lawful contract and is part of the law: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gesetz_über_Arbeitnehmererfindungen
