Yeah no shit. I didn’t remove anything. Just added it. The part you ignored is still there.

Go ahead and honor your promise to be “out”.

Lack of corporate cronyism

helenslunch, 8 months ago (edited 5 months ago)

I’ve been working on this on and off for a few months now. The more I learn, the deeper the hole gets. Ports and VPNs and UPNP and TCP and UDP and hosts and containers and firewalls and on and on. It’s a lot.

Many times I can’t get things working properly, if at all, and other times it works perfectly one day and then several days later, after changing absolutely nothing, no longer works.

My current goal is to get a Mobilizon instance and a Jitsi server running, to hopefully get a community started up there that meets up regularly to help each other, and to make onboarding easier.

I tried to ask for help around here and, while a few kind people did offer to help (and disappeared shortly thereafter), I was overwhelmingly lambasted for daring to ask for personal help.

I could but it’s pretty simple. You’re the owner of that domain. Any accounts/communications with that domain can be traced back to you.

I don’t trust anyone. You don’t have to trust them. That’s the point. Everything is open source and encrypted.

But aside from that they’ve been audited several times and they have a good reputation in the community.

Links from Twitter shouldn’t have any Facebook tracking info

That’s not what I’m saying.

You can’t install them at all

is this community the Peertube channel?

Lemmy “communities”, PeerTube “channels”, Mobilizon “Groups”, Kbin “magazines”, and Mastodon “Groups” are all functionally the same thing in the Fedi.

You can follow Lemmy communities on Mastodon as well, it just has a different (bad) UI. That’s why you’ll occasionally see users on Lemmy annoyingly @ 12 people in a reply.

like i’ve seen mastodon users’ comments here

You simply follow the Lemmy community (displayed as “groups”) on Mastodon.

and lemming comments on peertube

Just follow the PeerTube channels (displayed as “communities”) on Lemmy. As seen in the OP.

He has a podcast as well, if you’re into that. He actually just interviewed the CEO of Proton Privacy.

There’s an app on FDroid called shelter that creates a sandboxed “work” profile.

They are “listening”, they’re just not communicating with their home servers. The wake-up words are processed locally. I mean they have to be.

“Mute” is really a terrible way to describe this switch and breeds distrust. It should just be a WiFi switch or something.

Would really love to but have yet to see basic phone functionality covered in a way that isn’t a painful compromise. Stock Android is a privacy nightmare, which is why I left it.

I’ve been using GrapheneOS for about a year now and it’s a giant leap in privacy and security (much better than iOS), with very little compromise in functionality.

Game scope is a micro-compositor

What is that?

it’s how the Steamdeck handles games and probably steam.

So why would I use this in HGL instead of Steam?

Sick comment, honey

…what corporation?

helenslunch, 10 months ago

I pirate because I’m not paying for a profitable product that I could otherwise get for free.

Right!? It’s not like it cost money to create that work! Let all the schmucks pay for it!

helenslunch, 10 months ago

You’re not different people though, other than some of you are honest and some of you are just conjuring up bullshit justifications.

helenslunch, 10 months ago

Probably will just be more like their own flavor of Android where they lock down the OS and insert all kinds of malware.

But there’s no one around him.

Feeling personally attacked I see.

Uhhhh nope, you just made that up.

Well since you are completely oblivious, it’s rude and annoying, no one wants to hear your conversation.

Pretty sure the person on the phone with me wants to hear the conversation…

If you’re referring to being in a crowd of people, I understand, but that’s not what’s happening in the photo.

I don’t think so, it can only click the ads you’re served, which you don’t control.

I’m 36 and had internet porn since before I got puberty.

But yeah, I agree. I skip sex scenes now. I don’t feel like they add anything. Like you can just cut out all the nude backs and moaning and nothing of value would be lost. We get it, they had sex, move on.

I usually put all the afterburner tech specs up and mess with the settings for the first 10 minutes or so while I get it running at its best. Then I turn them off.

I wouldn’t call it a watermark but yeah, they have been for a good while if you export it from the app.
