Fasting and complete sensory isolation was a big thing. Not sure how effective.

I don’t mind Ubuntu server, though you’re right you need to clean it up a bit by uninstalling snap and killing the login ad of managed k8s, the LTS versions have been quite consistently easy to deal with and stable, but then again so has Debian.

I’m also the signal guy amongst my friends and family. There are dozens of us!

I think a possibility is a series of open source anvil or nixos scripts that you can run on most hardware with minimal changes, in an extendable architecture of some kind to add or remove functionality and they perhaps get maintained by the community or some structure of the kind of Linux distributions.

This could enable people with minimal skills set up and maintain a reasonably useful but secure environment just by changing a few variables.

Probably playing with it by feeling the sensation of the partially air filled cling.

You didn’t read the link then.

Not sure how international institutions can make it clearer.

Of course they’re committing genocide.

What if telegram refuses to cooperate with law enforcement in a timely fashion to provide details of the people sharing that material? What should law enforcement do then?

Unlike other chat services Telegram has a “social” aspect and search capabilities for locating public discussion channels.

Furthermore E2EE is optional and most people don’t turn it on and is certainly not on in public channels.

While techies are freaking out about an attack on encryption the articles I’ve read so far don’t mention anything about encryption or otherwise it seems that French police is concerned about moderation or attempts at moderation of those public channels, that Telegram specifically refuses to moderate.

Perhaps this will be an attack on encryption by stealth but at this point that’s not what it looks like.

As a personal anecdote when I installed Telegram a few years ago and searched for my city’s name the top 20 results where channels offering to sell you heroin - which I thought was so blatant as to be certain it was police sting operations - but who knows.

The problem with every terminator after 2 is that they went from “no fate but what we make” to determinism.

I can’t imagine any system of influence running an exposed ssh without some further protection from connection abuse like fail2ban.

The benefit of the doubt logic here Is as follows:

Mozilla thinks that the ad supported model of the web is essential to continuing to function.

Mozilla knows that the vast majority of installs have an adblocker installed.

In order to keep the ecosystem healthy they’re exploring ethical advertising options.

Counterpoint:

The vast majority of their income comes from the largest advertising company in the world - alphabet.

They need to be seen to at least make some efforts to not murder the advertising model through their mere existence while not pissing off the community too much.

See how much an exploit for iPhone vs Android will run you in the open market.

Also how fast a discovered security hole will be patched and distributed to the fleet between the two systems.

Most Android phones will never get a patch, some will get it 6 - 12 months later and very few within the month.

Also one is run by an advertising company.

Black Panther.

It had so much hype in the media, i was so excited to watch it. It turned out to be rather boring and forgettable.

How will the far right help with any of that? They’re not known for running public utilities.

One would think that if that’s your problem you’d vote further left - renationalise public utilities etc.

You should have seen Japan…

I hate that the headline is putting it as a foregone conclusion.

Instead of something along the lines of: Will the government allow this massive theft of intellectual property of average Australians?

You can see how this structure favours the most sociopathic members of society, as they are the ones that will take more risks without regard for others.

I’ll believe AI can replace engineers when I see NVIDIA firing them. But like the graphic says, the manager’s job seems a lot easier to replace instead.

I don’t think there was a time when formatting wasn’t important.

From double spaced text to allow edits, to certain margins, to sectioning, to indexes, to appendices, to properly italicized bibliographical references, to page references etc.

It assists you in conveying your intent as the writer and if standardized it makes it easier for the reader (ie your teacher) to orient themselves with minimal effort. Similar to having a consistent user interface.
