Totally agree. Maxis who think everyone will custody their own keys are living in a fantasy land. Most people are just not going want that kind of responsibility & I totally understand that.
The NSA tried to stop encryption being used in the US, then after losing that battle they tried to stop open source encryption from being used outside the US. Difference now is it's governments vs corporations. What we need is a whole lot more open source stuff instead of a few massive corporations running everything. I agree about all these autocratic governments but I am also optimistic that we will win in the future.
The last I saw was "hoping for Q1 2024”.
A used Optiplex micro works great
I heard him interviewed on a podcast within the last couple of months.
Nice. Fake accounts just like Twitter. 🙄
Brexit was a great move. Going to be rough for a while but the UK will be far better off eventually. I expect other nations will try to exit the EU in the coming decade.
Why would she (potentially) alienate millions of her fans by announcing who she is voting for?
Yeah I have to say it's pretty lame. Not sure why someone has so much interest in this stuff and child porn deep fakes. I really don't see the point of posting it, I imagine most people here have little to no interest in Talyor Swift deepfake porn pics. Celebraties have to deal with resl life papparazzi which I imagine is a fucking nightmare and now there's this dumb shit.
Last paragraph of the article:
For users uncomfortable with this, there are other X/Twitter alternatives available, such as Mastodon, Threads, and Bluesky, but this involves switching to another social network."
No mention of Nostr 🤷♂️
Lol! That's like saying stretching is a scam. I don't do yoga but yoga isn't a scam anymore than stretching, or running, or swimming.
Yeah its all smoke & mirrors. Wyden might mean what he says but nobody believes the NSA are going to give up their data, & even if the did they will get it again in some other way. That's what they do & nothing will ever stop them.
So its not real therefore zero restrictions on it . No age limits either? Is that what you are suggesting?
Cheaper than Verizon and more reliable than AT&T
T-Mobile recently changed & raised prices on all their plans. I've been a customer over 20yrs so wasn't happy when I saw the announcement that my plan would be eliminated & I'd be paying $10 more per month. I called them & fortunately as I've been with them so long they are keeping me on my original plan. Pretty sure none of this stuff would be happening if their former CEO John Legere was still there.
Silent Link says in the FAQ that they don't do outgoing calls & sms to prevent spam, which I see as reasonable.
Looks really good, I'll have to boomark this. Just hope people read everything and understand that getting a phone number doesn't mean you can make phone calls, you can get incoming calls only.
Roofers are often left out. That work is brutal, they deserve more respect. I've had plenty of arguments with people who go on about robots taking all the jobs but they will never replace all the trades, just won't happen. A robot will never be painting your living room, ever!
