Question for the #privacy folks: I had to buy an #apple #macbook (yes, please hold your pitchforks) to work, but I want to use it in the most private way I can, so I was taking some notes:
- I'll not use an apple ID, I'll just use a local account
- All apps will be installed using #brew or similar methods
- I'll not use any native Apple apps (Finder will be the only exception)
- I'll leave it connected 24/7 in a VPN (#mullvad or #ivpn)
- I'll try LuLu #firewallAny other tips? Please #boost

I want to buy a #laptop for programming and virtual machine stuff - no gaming - I'll use #Linux
Is this one good?
- Model: #Dell Latitude 7450
- Processor: #Intel Core Ultra 7 165U vPro
- Memory: 32GB DDR5 6400MT/s
- Storage: SSD 1TB PCIe NVMe M.2, Class 35
- Ports: Headphone jack, 2x USB Type-A, 2x USB-C Thunderbolt 4 w/ PowerDisplay and Display Port, HDMI 2.0Not sure about the #165U model, there are models with #155H but they are way more expensive, the 165U is what I can afford right now.
