Gazumi,

Hold tight! That trickle down money is on the next train!

Gazumi,

And so the last steps to privacy are removed.

Gazumi,

I try for minimum 3 for fast or slow uploads. Generally my max is 5. It depends upon the total number of concurrent seeding files Slower torrents, I’ll just leave seeding. Some may still be below 1 after a month. If they have such low use, I can afford the small bandwidth and data impact.

Gazumi,

For flac albums, try galxytorrent2 or RUtracker.

Newbie tech (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

This is probably a ridiculous question, but I usually stream from my laptop to my LG tv or my phone to any other tv, and I find that using my VPN keeps the casting output option from working. Like in Popcorntime, the Watch Now doesn’t show my tv, only the laptop app or VLC. On my daughter’s fire stick I can’t even cast to...

Gazumi,

The lowtech option is to connect your device physically. I do this in hotels and at home. USB C to HDMI output. Connection cables are relatively cheap, and easily long enough for most use cases.

Disney is gouging customers with a near doubling of subscription costs. (sh.itjust.works)

Disney is raking its customers over the coals with a 75% price hike for their annual subscription (originally $80.) People wonder why piracy is on the rise.Multiple commenters are saying I’m off base about the 75% price increase. My payment less than a year ago was $79.99. Here’s the proof.

Gazumi,

Many of us who had settled on land be thinking of travels

Gazumi,

JUST 2 short responses and space apart in time. I don’t think they are nterested at all!

Gazumi,

In any scenario the brand of smart TV is irrelevant as thet all impair your privacy. Cost and effort are sadly now a feature, but not too much of a challenge. Never connect your TV to the internet directly. The easiest step is a Chromecast. I recently needed to replace my dumb TV with a smart TV. For me I just bought a TV at a price point that allowed me to also buy a used old PC box plus a wireless keyboard a touchpad. You could alternately use a Raspberry Pi. Either way, you ultimately have control of what is shared or escapes for your privacy.

Gazumi,

Does Usenet require VPN or similar?

Time to ditch #duckduckgo (lemmy.world)

In the last couple of months I have noticed an increasing trend of supplying me search results that are completely unrelated to the current query and tie back to my location or previous searches. I can say this with a high degree of certainty this is without a doubt beyond the 100th instance this has happened....

Gazumi,

What would we suggest as a realistic alternative? Sears? Startpage? Brave? (I am no expert by the way, just looking for tips)

Gazumi,

The UK loses billions per year since Brexit. We could instead ave used that money for this and still have been better off

Gazumi,

FOSS s such a wide area of practice. There is no detriment in supporting a FOSS keyboard or image editor. Perhaps for these, or for software that might sails across the lines you might consider Monero, or similar.

Gazumi,

Yes yes and yes! These people are a lifeline for people like me who can’t code. People like me gain so much. Free is fun, but if you can donate, even one $, €, £ or other.

Gazumi,

Might be too sticky for some.

Gazumi,

Because they are the one group that doesn’t need to think “If I start singling out this group of people for any reason, then others will use that same approach with me”. Ironically, the reason for the vigour of their fascism is the blindly stupid argument that young white men will soon be exctinct.

Gazumi,

Even today, only cursory recognition that the Aboriginal people remain excluded from their own lands and ways

Gazumi,

Zee boosh should be much lower down brother

Gazumi,

I use this: www.f-droid.org/packages/com.best.deskclock/

The funniest answer I saw to the question of the most privacy respecting clock was “a sundial”, but thats just my childish sense of humour.

Is ProtonVPN worth it?

@piracy

Got reminded of this while reading about ProtonMail. The reason I haven't gotten into proper is that I don't have a VPN for torrenting, and the reason I don't have a VPN is that I don't . So it would be nice if I got a good VPN while myself.

Will ProtonVPN rat me out to Comcast? I know some VPNs don't hide what you're downloading from your ISP, for reasons I don't fully understand.

Gazumi,

I feel sillyhearing about safing.io for the first time. Sounds very interesting, thanks

Gazumi,

The UK police are on their backsides after decades of cuts to workforce. Society is not protected by cameras. People wear masks or hoodies when they mug old ladies. We need bobbies on the street.

Gazumi,

Same clown commenting about censorship here too. C’mon clown, downvote this the same way you have in the other post
