jrheronn,

People freely hand it over. Haha. Some of these can’t be avoided, like Universities strictly using Zoom for office hours/class or workplaces that use Microsoft 365.

jrheronn,

TV’s have become privacy nightmares in recent days.

One option would be any TV that works then simply keep it offline and stream from a device that allows you to have more control over your privacy.

If you’re wanting to actually use a smart TV’s functions, I think NextDNS can be set up to block most of the telemetry on whichever smart TV you have.

jrheronn,

Seriously. I’ve tried so many games that people post about on indie developer communities.

jrheronn,

The July 7 Free Talk Friday is the only one the is stickied that shouldn’t be on programming.dev.

jrheronn,

They usually smoke nicotine-free herbal cigarettes. I don’t know the long term affects but definitely better than regular cigarettes.

I think it could be considered dedication to their work, especially when you consider they usually have to film a scene several times. Cillian Murphy probably went through thousands of them when filming Peaky Blinders. Lol

jrheronn,

Before Reddit killed Apollo, Lemmy was really lacking in daily content. Now we’ve reached a point where I can open the app multiple times a day and see new content.

jrheronn,

I don’t know if anything will actually come of this but its nice to see the DOJ actually acknowledge this.

jrheronn,

I am not sure exactly what the admins need but they do have a Gitub Sponsor to help out with the cost.

jrheronn,

Private communication apps only work if they have people you want to talk to and Signal is the only one I could get my family to use.

jrheronn, (edited )

Signal is by far much easier to get family/friends to use than Matrix or Session. Downloaded it to my parents’ phones and told them this is how you contact me.

jrheronn,

It seems like Apple will publically make the correct decision to protect privacy, but I am more worried what they do behind the scenes with their user data. The Apple TOS is a nightmare.

jrheronn,

How about no ads? Once you force ads into something I use or make it impossible for me to block them, it is time to find an alternative.
