I was interested in the Sideband Android app until I discovered that they closed ths ticket asking to be added to the #Fdroid repos, claiming it's too much work and not enough benefit. 😭
F-Droid reviews all apps in their default store to ensure they are really #OpenSource (or #FOSS or #FLOSS if you will) and looks for trackers. They also require a description of what changed from one version to another.
These are benefits that you don't get by installing an APK directly from Microsoft GitHub.
It's completely valid to say that benefit isn't worth the effort. That's a value judgement. To some, even a trivial amount of effort is too much. To me, it's a significant value, and if it were my project, I'd create a .yml file and submit a MR to FDroidData.
Now, the effort to make their build reproducable is a different question. That may be easy or it may take a significant effort. Whether reproducable builds are worth the effort or not depends on how much the project cares about #security. How much work it is depends on whether and other projects using buildozer have already done this. If not, it'll also depend on whether the builddozer devs are interested in helping their users do this.

F-Droid breaks the Android security model- prefer IzzyOnDroid over the default repositories if you must use it, and check if the app you want is available on Accrescent first

Sorry, just remembered that no one has announced it on Nostr yet. Zones 3-6 have yet to be released
Gen Z & saffron was my answer too
Unix philosophy; do 1 thing & do it well
4 of the first 25 papers on https://arxiv.org/list/cs.CR/recent are about DNS right now.
It's interesting to see such an old, critical technology to get so much attention. Usually academics are trying to chase the buzzword of the day.
To be fair, one of them does have "Large Language Models" in the title, so there's still some of that "write about what's popular, not what's important" thing going on too.
The fact that root nameservers are still limited to old school unencrypted queries over UDP on port 53 should be mind-boggling to me, but my expectations have been getting systematically destroyed for years at this point
MythoAmerica's substack is very interesting to me as I born and raised here, but something tells me that foreigners will find it interesting too

Likelihood of a common identity can probably be ascertained through stylometry & other methods of behavioral analysis— I'd be surprised if it hasn't been done already, to be frank

In a few years these people will be campaigning for all of the menial workers who lost their jobs to automation
Woah, is nostr:npub179e9tp4yqtqx4myp35283fz64gxuzmr6n3yxnktux5pnd5t03eps0elz4s the same person whose name I recognize from reading the iptables man page?
iptables man page? We thank you for your service

Those of you who are engineers should give this a read- it'll save you countless headaches
nostr:npub1exv22uulqnmlluszc4yk92jhs2e5ajcs6mu3t00a6avzjcalj9csm7d828 is aiming for the role of an email replacement IIRC, and I have to say that I would heavily prefer it over Nostr here

Answering the second question there- I don't use BTC so I can't offer much advice for the first beyond "use a mixer"
OrangeFren will help you there assuming you already have crypto. If not, just buy BTC through a P2P marketplace and then swap via OrangeFren.
Note: You should probably avoid USDT as it's a ticking time bomb— as always, DYOR
Wait, I was referring to nostr:npub1l59ulrx34m5rle67ds8al32rs309hsl4p5nd9409cmfl55slnrqq8jq78u- what made you think the comment was aimed at you?
