Good article with some valid concerns.

The ending though.

We’re still bullish on the fediverse, and on Bluesky, if it manages to become a truly federated platform.

Anybody who thinks Bluesky actually wants to give up control of their platform is nuts

Wow! Finally somebody invented an efficient way for two computers to talk to each other

anybody using COSMIC and know if it’s ready for use as a daily driver yet?

wasn’t there a thing recently where it became clear they do listen?

Isn’t DaVinci Resolve closed source?

How are you running your script?

(I have no idea how to solve your issue I’m just asking questions to sound smart and helpful)

No not unencrypted traffic. Any traffic. If a subpoena comes in like “hey this IP did a piracy pls tell us who it was” there is no way for us to answer that. Any VPN that doesn’t have that is a scam. Sadly, a lot of them are.

no we don’t lol. There’s no way for us to connect an account to any of the traffic on our nodes.

I applaud your mistrust though.

I’m not sure. When in doubt, use protection right? I know at least a couple where it is illegal

Ohhh okay that’s awesome actually

In most jurisdictions, piracy is illegal no?

Whether you really need a VPN depends on where you live. When in doubt, use one

I work for a VPN company. There may be many shitty VPN companies that do keep logs, but not all of them.

You just need to pick the right ones, ideally audited ones.

Also, VPNs are absolutely required in some countries if you’re using public torrents. Even if they’re not required in your country right now, you’re still advertising that you’re doing illegal stuff if you don’t use one.

I’m a big fan of fedora atomic and derivatives, but haven’t played around with nix or nixos yet. What’s your goal with the impermanence module?

they don’t sell your data. advertisers just pick out the target audience and meta places the ads for them. This is the way google and meta have been doing ads for a while. Actually selling your data is illegal.

They still use your data to push ads so it’s a violation of privacy. Just wanna get the facts straight.

Unless there’s been some leak recently I’m unaware of?

don’t have netflix, hoping there’s a torrent or something :D

I’m something of a gopher myself you know

what is the rust one again. It looks so familiar but eludes me

edit: it’s nodejs

I thought we all agreed that “immutable” is a confusing term and that we should call it “atomic”

edit: I was wrong

bcrypt… with how many iterations? seems like an important detail
