fuzzzerd,

I tend to agree with your summary of the generations, but my experience in life sounds largely similar to yours, so some obvious bias there. The future you paint feels almost inevitable, and I hate every bit of it. Yet I can’t find any reasonably effective way to change it.

fuzzzerd,

I don’t see the problem with that. Looks like it just shows a corporate logo if they’ve passed dmarc verification.

Seems like a nice feature.

fuzzzerd,

Gotta build that brown fat.

fuzzzerd,

Miniflux.app is very good.

fuzzzerd,

That’s true, but once you trust a new device, there’s no reason the authority (your phone that has all history) couldn’t transfer the history over to the new client.

I get it would add some complexity, but it could be done in a secure and private way.

fuzzzerd,

What about bank apps and nfc? Do those work or are you just out of luck if you need them on graphene or lineage?

fuzzzerd,

Win-win.

I see what you did there.

fuzzzerd,

Even with that I still don’t get it. Is that a theoretical max speed?

fuzzzerd,

Sure, but this is their excuse to clamp down and limit all mods for the reasons you listed under the banner of morals and such.

fuzzzerd,

Not sure if joking or not, because Stella is miles better than budlite. Might still be bad, but it’s not even in the same stratosphere as budlite.

fuzzzerd,

Sure. Budlite is still worse.

fuzzzerd,

I appreciate the good faith you’re putting into this. I tend to lean your way, but it’s interesting to see this discussion play out. Thanks for being respectful. I appreciate it, even though (up to this comment) I’m just observing the thread.

fuzzzerd,

Article removed because it doesn’t meet their editorial standards.

fuzzzerd,

It shifts from the isp to the VPN provider, who isn’t doing that profiling yet.

fuzzzerd,

I’m on proton and in the same boat, but the wait could be a while. They’re very focused on expanding their product portfolio, and less focused on making the existing products sing.

I hate how everything requires you to download a shitty proprietary data harvesting app nowadays when everything can be done just fine without an app.

I have recently started university and am required to use an app that has three Facebook trackers, one of them being a Facebook location tracker according to Exodus App Privacy, for the dining plan, when it would literally work perfectly fine using your student ID and ordering to a real cashier, LIKE HOW IT HAS BEEN DONE FOR...

fuzzzerd,

Firefox for Android does support them fully, it’s just desktop Firefox that doesn’t have pwa support.

fuzzzerd,

I agree on WEI, and that’s the scary part since crappy companies will demand it in the name of security and everyone gets fucked and the Internet becomes a little less free.

Whatsapp has begun working on support for third party chats (Telegram/Signal) (wabetainfo.com)

The European Union has recently reached an agreement on a significant competition reform known as the Digital Markets Act (DMA), which will impose strict rules on large tech companies that will have to offer users the ability to communicate with each other using different apps. WhatsApp is one of the companies that will be...

fuzzzerd,

That’s too bad, but I’m not sure how they can enforce it since anyone can build their own version of the signal client, nothing stopping WhatsApp from doing something like that.

fuzzzerd,

Not sure you have a choice, other than to opt out.

fuzzzerd,

I was more meaning that WhatsApp could include a custom signal build inside WhatsApp.

fuzzzerd,

Is there a way to sign in with Microsoft account and not upload your key to the cloud?

This also makes me wonder if Android does the same thing with its device encryption, since you must login with a Google account.

fuzzzerd,

Servers ain’t free. But they could at least roll the expansion cost into the subscription.

fuzzzerd,

I robbed my self of that ability accidentally, because I preferred cs 1.3/4/5 and it was won only, so I actively avoided 1.6 like the plague and with it steam. Then halflife 2 came out and I bit the bullet.

fuzzzerd,

I think the issue is that on mobile especially, switching contexts between apps is incredibly difficult compared to desktop and as such it’s easier for one app maker to include everything so it can contest switch more easily. The “share” mechanisms on Android and iOS are great for the common use cases but harder for more nuanced things.

That and keeping you within their ecosystem drives engagement which increases profit.

fuzzzerd,

Can signal even do backups iOS to iOS? I was under the impression signal just didn’t support that on iOS at all, but maybe my info is out dated.

How to demonstrate to people the importance of privacy by showing the data collected about them?

I wish to convince my friends and family to avoid using privacy-invading ad-based services and apps. Seeing people discuss how much data these companies collect off of us, I want to know if there is a way you could get a sample of that data by yourself and show it to them for them to realize the gravity of the situation...

fuzzzerd,

If it were that easy, someone would have done it already.

fuzzzerd,

That sounds like a feature to me. Gotta pay extra for that offline start capability. And if you don’t designate this far as your offline remote start car before hand you’re fucked.

fuzzzerd,

Of all the ways to reduce costs, this is one that leaves me feeling like I’d rather not participate.

fuzzzerd,

While I completely agree with you about electron, I still don’t have to enjoy the fact that companies are outsourcing their lack of development in native tech to my wallet in terms of wasting resources on my device. Now perhaps the cost of the associated services would be higher if they had a native app which is a fair response. I still don’t have to like it.

Written as a user (and occasionally enjoyer) of electron based software.

fuzzzerd,

That’s basically how it happened.

fuzzzerd,

I see what you did there.

fuzzzerd,

Pidgin and Trillian were both fantastic stable solutions back then, and it’s be real fucking nice to have that today, but everyone’s got their hand out to steal your data and offer you free services for the trouble and they don’t want to share.

fuzzzerd,

Basically ruins the fediverse concept, as it will ultimately lock out all small instances of self hosted instances, which really is a shame.

fuzzzerd,

Is that Cas’ car from the mid seasons or something else entirely ?

fuzzzerd,

I think it was a reference to the movie based on him, called Lord Of War.

Exposed: Facebook's Corrupt Spyware is Tracking you OFF the platform (monero.town)

From internal leaks within the company as well as external analysis, the tip of the iceberg behind Facebook’s spyware empire is exposed. Take a look to better protect yourself when you’re not even on the platform: simplifiedprivacy.com/facebooks-corrupt-off-platf…

fuzzzerd,

Which are all useless if nobody you want to talk to is there.

fuzzzerd,

Arguably, if you’re compressing the signal wirelessly via Bluetooth, the ceiling for quality is probably in that low couple hundred bucks market. Apple probes people will overpay for something but anything actually better is probably going to be wired.

fuzzzerd,

Mind blown. I’ve observed this and it’s fucking infuriating, only to just realize they’re judging me for doing it too quickly and making me try again.

fuzzzerd,

Haven’t found a good Lemmy community or kbin magazine for it yet, but reddit had a great community for traditional wet shaving.

Straight razor, or safety razor or a shavette if you wanted some convenience and utility are miles ahead of any multi-blade system.

fuzzzerd,

Is that split screen on a PC for local coop? How does that work exactly? two keyboards and two mice? Or what?

fuzzzerd,

I’m way out of the loop, but is the issue that they actively make it difficult to use the rendering engine or is it that the cost to modularize it isn’t worth the payoff to Firefox itself? A subtle but important distinction IMO. I always felt it was the second, but maybe I was being dense?

fuzzzerd,

Huh? Why?

fuzzzerd,

I believe that there is an extension for Firefox pwa support, but the Android version definitely supports pwas natively.

fuzzzerd,

That’s interesting, I’d be curious to read more about that. Do you have any links to get started with? Searching this type of stuff on Google yields less than ideal results.

fuzzzerd,

How do you print the QR code on a sticker? I’m just curious about your printer and software for that task.

fuzzzerd,

I see. So the QR code doesn’t contain any of your data in it, it’s just a url to that site, which let’s you store notes under that url.

That’s a neat site, but I was hoping for a local solution that actually stores the data in the QR code itself.

Thanks for responding.

fuzzzerd,

Sure, I was mostly asking about the printer and sticker setup. Generating a QR code is one thing. Getting it printed nicely on a sticker is another. OPs solution uses a preprinted qr code to a url and then you store your notes in their site. Nothing wrong with it if that’s what you want, but I’d like to encode the data directly.

fuzzzerd,

That is why signal dropped support for it.theybssid it was to increase security because users could accidentally be using signal sending regular SMS. The way you got lore secure is not how they advertised the removal, but makes sense that happens in some cases. Same thing happened to me.
