I went over how easy it was to enable Full disk encryption on the FLX1 recently, so today I'm going to go over how to change the FDE password on a Librem 5 which uses PureOS. The Librem 5 comes preinstalled with FDE, at least mine did. The default password is on the bottom right square of the quick start guide, mine was "123456". To change this you just open the Gnome Disk Utility (also known as "Disks"), Tap the 31GB Disk, tap Partition 2, tap the gear in the bottom left, tap change passphrase, enter current password, enter new password, confirm new password, tap change password, then reboot the phone. Many mobile Linux options lack FDE outright and those that have it can make it difficult to setup. PureOS on my Librem 5 not only has it but it is very easy to change which is good because keeping a known default password is a terrible idea. Why other mobile Linux distros can't implement it like this or similar I do not know.

So a easy quick breakdown of the steps above is:


disks>disk >partition 2>gear>change passphrase>enter current>enter new>confirm>change>reboot

For instance, even with the early #Amiga ray-tracing packages such as Imagine and Lightwave, I'd start by drawing a 2D shape and then make a solid by "extruding" this flat silhouette along its normal. #cad

Mother, Father and Caregiver Charged with Neglect.
Tylim Hatchett, who was blind, deaf and used a wheelchair, was found dead and severely emaciated in his home in September.

Investigators say he had been left alone for long periods of time and was not given any food.

He weighed just 59 lbs. when he died, officials said while announcing the charges on Tuesday.

I’m on the Fediverse because I don’t trust any social media site that isn’t owned by me.

Which is also why I run my own Fediverse server (atomicpoet.org).

If someone else owns the server, they can remove my posts. Or silence me. Or worse, claim ownership of my work.

Ok. We need to do yet another poll. We found another Audacity fork that includes synchronized video playback (edit: it's called AudaVid). See mastodon.social/@micron/113706 for more details.

Should we implement this feature?

EDIT 2: Ok, maybe this isn't a fork?
EDIT 3: it is, whoops.
EDIT 4: It doesn't seem like its source code is available. That's a GPL violation right there 😅
