Modern hardware with the latest kernel is advised for operators of the current and maintained #QubesOS version 4.3.
The features of the system are nearly the same as the previous generations. One interesting innovation is the possibility to change
VM Persistent/User modes in Qubes Manager when updating or configuring

Compare with #Whonix in Vmware

Bandwidth-Weighted algorithm (performance vs security trade-off)

Disposable VM 9999, such a beauty 😄

It seems whonix has been broken on my #QubesOS for a year or so. I reinstalled once & it was still broken. Can we remove if the the default? I mean, I can just run #tor when needed?

I guess the "tracking pixels" is all about browser based conversion, which is why it triggers a lot of flags when we upload something.

The server probably becomes less loaded thanks to that.

That's a smart idea.

Ok, guess I'm forced to use Qubes then.

As long as you got the tools and the knowledge you'll progress!

Konečně jsem v #QubesOS začal využívat "named disposables" pro jednotné prostředí s VPN k různým zákazníkům, jak už jsem dlouho chtěl.

Entropy Quality

I am trying to confirm that it is safe to generate very high-importance private keys in Qubes Whonix. I’ve read every Wiki post and GitHub issue that Qubes/Whonix have on this topic (excellent work there Patrick) and I am close to being confident enough, but I want to be certain of a few more things. I think the main sources of credited entropy are the kernel’s in-built “Linus Jitter Dance” [1][2], haveged and jitterentropy-rngd. There’s also some uncredited entropy from dom0’s getrandom(0) [3]...

@malte #QubesOS hatten wir angeschaut, es lief hier auf keinen vorhandenen Gerät. Extra ein Notebook für das Experiment kaufen war uns zu stressig.

@AwetTesfaiesus #QubesOS hat eine steile lernkurve, aber denkt unter anderem genau solche szenarien mit.

und einige firmen bieten sogar zertifizierte hardware an: https://doc.qubes-os.org/en/latest/user/hardware/certified-hardware/certified-hardware.html
