My nephews' computer (Dell Optiplex 790) was broken, as it turned out, the SSD had failed! So I replaced it with an old HDD (because that’s what I had on hand) and installed Debian directly via QEMU on the drive, since the PC was already open and I didn’t feel like using USB boot.
System: Debian (stable) + XFCE (nicely set up)
Programs: Learning software for elementary school and lower secondary school plus a few games
Browser: Firefox hardened with policies.json, all settings and addon installation blocked, only the addons I installed (uBlock, Ecosia, etc.) are allowed
Control: Screen time managed via Timekpr-next
Security: Instagram, Facebook, etc. and especially TikTok blocked via hosts; adult sites filtered via OpenDNS FamilyShield

The AGPLv3 license on #OnlyOffice’s code allows forks as long as you keep the same license, ship source, and preserve copyright and attribution notices. WTH! So that sounds to me like they are saying you can’t fork us you can just tweak and reship our product. WTF! Either you ship forkable copyleft code that allows changing the product AND its branding or you don’t; you can’t have it both ways. Forking is a normal part of the #OpenSource ecosystem.

Two leaks in five days. A system built to hide AI authorship in open source. Unreleased models running on your repos without telling anyone. And now the blueprints are public.
The cover is blown.
