Pretty sure this was described exactly in Snow Crash (Neal Stephenson, 1992).



Why not post your blogs to a fediverse platform? Do they need to be on a separate hosted system? You’ll probably get more people reading and engaging with your posts if you are just posting to a Mastodon instance rather than hosting on a separate web platform and hoping that people stumble across it.

the folder Music>Pictures (the regular Pictures folder… for some reason that’s where it is) is open in explorer.

This sounds like the kind of thing that might happen if you have some kind of automatic sync set up, like when you plug your phone in and it automatically copies photos, or perhaps a cloud service that’s syncing photos?


I can’t go back to a phone where I can’t re-lock my bootloader after installing a custom ROM

Is this something that only certain models of phone are capable of doing? Or is it a new Android/hardware feature that only new phones have?


Is it too long to post the article text on Lemmy? There’s some irony in posting a privacy article and putting it behind a URL-shortener.


This is a /c/Privacy thread about mobile keyboards, my guy.


Luckily, Steam has a convenient way of moving games to your Linux partition.

How do you do this? Thanks.



Top comment on this video is the following:

Upon further reading and listening, I blame the source article and not Louis Rossmann.

These people had :

Returned from partisan fighting with the Kurds against ISIS

Had stuff to make explosives

Firearms and ammo

Were reportedly seen by surveillance to be practicing making explosives

And this article makes it seem like they were arrested for using encryption. They are turning a footnote into a title.

This is not a internet privacy scandal, this is a anti-far-left law enforcement overreaction scandal
