I joined Lemmy back in 2020 and have been using it as qaz@lemmy.ml until somewhere in 2023 when I switched to lemmy.world. I’m interested in Linux, FOSS, technology, and several other subjects.

Sure, it’s worse than monero and cash in terms of privacy, but that’s not what it’s supposed to replace. There are plans to use Taler as an alternative to card payments in the EU and that would be a great improvement. Currently all payment data is visible to multiple of companies, the shop, the bank, and many middle man and is often sold off to other commerical entities. Taler would stop that.


I recently got a 6a to replace my iPhone SE for €160 and it’s been working great.


An LLM like Ollama won’t help with that. Something like Photoprism could, it uses ML to automatically tag media and recognize people.


Twitter had a TOR service last time I checked, I haven’t seen a single Mastodon instance available as TOR service.


The normal memes community got spammed with political stuff. This meme isn’t specifically apolitical, but it isn’t explicitly political either, that’s why it’s on here.


Why did you specifically link to the GitHub actions page?


Signal isn’t perfect but it’s still one of the best options.


It utilizes punycode under the hood. The actual DNS entries still use ASCII.


Punycode enables you to encode any Unicode character as ASCII. Almost all browsers support this.


I also have it on the latest version of GrapheneOS



This seems similar to Veilid. How does it compare?


I assumed you were well intentioned and not trolling


I think you forgot a /s


No, most sites have a button stashed in some submenu of the account page that allows you to request your data. It’s either a legal requirement of the GDPR or they just don’t want to deals with individual email requests, I’m not exactly sure.

It usually does take a lot of time for the request to be “processed”, you usually get an email with a zip archive after about a week. I’m not sure if that’s malicious compliance.

You can also send a GDPR request to have them delete all your data, but they do have 1 month to comply and in my experience most services do take that long to “process” your request.

Keep in mind that many services hide these options for non-EU citizens.



I just checked my history and performed 611 searches this week on this device alone. 300 is not even close to enough for a week. $5 is way too expensive for that.


I just checked and performed more than 300 search queries in the past 4 days.


A few days ago I needed to download some transactions from a bank’s site. However, it kept giving “Something went wrong”. I called support and they told me I needed to use chrome. I did and surprisingly enough it actually worked. I did try Firefox less than a minute after that and it was still broken, so it wasn’t just a back-end issue that was resolved while logging on on Chrome. I still have no clue how it’s possible to create a download button that can break on Firefox.


GrapheneOS, a privacy/security focused operating system is compatible with a limited amount of devices. The pixel series is part of those compatible devices.


iPhone SE (2020) with iOS 16.6.1

It’s fine, I guess.

I’ve been considering getting an Android phone and installing Graphene OS, but I’m not sure if everything will work. My current phone also isn’t broken, so I don’t plan on switching. I’m hoping I can use it for another year and I’ll see then.


What is the advantage of IPFS over other storage types?

I think it allows syncing without requiring a central node, that’s how AnyType seems to use it.

What I don’t understand is how can anyone claim that their mail is encrypted, if Skiff does that for them (as in, non-Skiff to Skiff mail conversation)? There’s still a third party involved, right?

I think it’s mostly about the fact that the mail is encrypted after being received by the Skiff mail server.

freedom of religion is a human right bruh i did not say anything but i believe in god the banned me and claimed i was being homophobic 1. i said nothing about it 2. stfu even if i was

oh by the way you can shut with your among us memes

🤔


Revolt is simple and works almost exactly the same as Discord. Element requires understanding federation, and it’s “spaces” feature is not the same as Discord “servers”.


Maybe there are X11 specific calls that aren’t fully supported by Wayland?


You can locally generate images with StableDiffusion and chat using Vicuna.


It’s inherently linked to surveillance because you need to collect enourmous amounts of data to train the models, which you won’t get from people sending feedback voluntarily.


Isn’t papers please using Haxeflixel?


You don’t. I meant to say that only large organizations need the official Bitwarden docker setup, but I did not communicate that clearly enough.


The official docker image uses a lot more resources than the vaultwarden container, but it allows significantly more than 100 users. If it’s just for yourself and your family I suggest just going with Vaultwarden.


You can also self-host Bitwarden using Vaultwarden.


The desktop environment is much more important, I recommend going with Fedora, it’s easy and has a large community and has a large amount of desktop environments to pick from.
