Twashe,

I started with podman and wanted to like it. Ultimately moved to docker because of docker compose

Twashe,

This needs a pin

Twashe,

Yooo I had not heard of gothub I’ve been looking for something like this. I’m assuming it is possible to clone repositories?

Twashe,

I love this. Now i want to spin up and instance and start themeing

Twashe,

I’m not sure what the big deal is here. The US military has had swarm tech like this for almost a decade through DARPA performing mapping and scouting missions

Twashe,

This is madness. How does this keep getting upvoted when the article has nothing to do with the actual code integrity and functionality of this browser.

At least it’s open source, if there is something shady point it out in the code.

Jitsi, the open-source video conferencing platform, now requires a Google, Microsoft, or Facebook account for their online service (jitsi.org)

While Jitsi is open-source, most people use the platform they provide, meet.jit.si, for immediate conference calls. They have now introduced a “Know Your Customer” policy and require at least one of the attendees to log in with a Facebook, Github (Microsoft), or Google account....

Twashe,

RIP

Twashe,

Same. Tried it a few years ago and it was bloatware and cluttered. Took another chance on it and really like it, super fast and I can make it as full featured or slim down as I want. I think the company is owned by the workers if I remember correctly. Double check that

Twashe,

Always wanted to try a star labs product. What always stops me are the specs. Not enough ram or storage or CPU to justify the price. Even though I know the premium is there because they aren’t just white labeled clevos like every other Linux focused PC company

Twashe,

Oh no. Man that sucks. Which one? The lemur pro by system76 was a clevo I had it for a bit and thought it was really good all around. I would have kept it but the specs on a M1 were just ridiculous compared to anything out there. No fans, no dust collection was something I didn’t know I appreciated so much

Twashe,

They just keep getting worse. Closed sourced wallets, with back doors, and kyc crypto. Oh and the screen breaks after a year on the base models.

Twashe,

Did any one see the pinned comment where they say turned off monetization after community feedback? as if this video should be monitized in the first place lol man this does not feel right

Twashe,

Fair point, I thought about that too but if it were me and my reputation on the line, I’d make a main point of the video. Just as gamer nexus did.

Making a vid about being less careless and then being careless.

All that said, when I was posting vids, there was a full screen YouTube made me go through to set monitization and ad placement before proceeding to a separate screen for posting

Twashe,

I feel really dumb but I can’t find any documentation on his to use it other than instructions on how to install a node

Twashe,

I believe financial consequences can be very useful to make it expensive to spam or be abusive.

For example, for a user to access an app:

  • The user is required to put up X amount of money as colatoral
  • The user can retrieve the funds if they choose to discontinue use of the app
  • If a user is reported for abuse, a small fine is deducted from their colatoral

The user Reputation and distribution of fines:

  • if a user, has multiple accounts in good standing, the initial collateral to access new apps is discounted for good reputation.
  • The proceeds from fines can be distributed to the app’s treasury or to users with good rep.
Twashe, (edited )

I agree. There is a potential barrier to entry, and growth. I argue:

  • people part with money for a cause or belief. Culturally privacy apps are different, inconvenient and unfamiliar UX, there are usually no ‘email signups’, not run by ads, or sales of data, and the software is free but has a learning curve. People do it anyways because they believe it is right
  • Its not unusual to pay $1-$15 for an app in a mobile app store. At least they can get their money back (it’s actually free to use)
  • users can be compensated for ‘rich’ abusive actor, at the same time incentivised to report in the case of ie chat app
  • A sponsor couls risk their collatoral to allow access to a user who cannot manage the initial financial barrier

The first point is the most important IMHO, privacy users accept the learning curve and inconvenience because they believe privacy is more important and because of this, I believe the burden is not as high as we think, that a ‘free to play’ alternative means of accessing privacy respecting apps (by this idea or something else) is as as essential to supporting and protecting privacy as E2EE vs server side encryption.

Twashe,

Yeah… Thought they were monitoring angels

Twashe,

The points in this article have nothing to do with the actual browser. For the record I use Firefox, librewolf, and brave

Some sites are broken with a Firefox base.

  • the founder is controversial. so what? Does the product render pages with pretty good fingerprint blocking? Yes
  • crypto exchanges are under scrutiny and brave uses crypto. so what? does the product render pages with decent cross tracking isolation? Yes
  • their crypto has little value and was a failed experiment so what? Does the browser remove ads? Yes

If you’re going to write about how something sucks, talk about it with substance, point out code that does XYZ to confirm negative statements.

Twashe,

It"s a big deal because hoverboards and hovering cars like in the movies

Twashe,

So actual hover boards soon?

Twashe,

My man

Twashe,

It’s inevitable

Twashe,

When Twitter first came out my friends and made accounts with celebrity names. Good times

Twashe,

Yep. I’ve not tried it yet. Finally came around to playing around with it though. What I noticed is by default it syncs to the backup and I can’t figure out how to turn it off yet. That said the files are decrypted locally with the keys made when the account is created. About to look more into the privacy policy.

Twashe,

No different than syncing to a server. Many video calls are implemented with p2p up to a certain amount of participants. Text is less demanding in comparison. I’ve not dived into the code yet but p2p relays typically just coordinate what IPs need to connect. In your case, once the connection is established the phone is directly transferring data with your laptop. No server in between.
