thanksforallthefish, to selfhosted in PSA: The Docker Snap package on Ubuntu sucks.

Lol. Yeah that was my reaction to the headline as well. “You did what ?”

thanksforallthefish, to selfhosted in 13 Feet Ladder

1ft.io also seems to work and by the branding seems unrelated to 12ft

thanksforallthefish, to linux in New Linux user here. Is this really how I'm supposed to install apps on Linux?

While lvxferre’s instructions are the ideal, there’s a simpler option

Download the mullvad.deb file.

Doubleclick on it from your file manager and it should automatically instsll

Every time you start mullvad it will check if the version is current and prompt you (with a link to click on) to upgrade if it’s not.

Note that works on mint, should work on ubuntu unless they’ve disabled dpkg

thanksforallthefish, to piracy in Terry Pratchett's Hogfather

Definitely on there

thanksforallthefish, (edited ) to linux in What are the differences between linux distributions?

You may wish to investigate Bedrock linux, it allows you to Frankenstein 2 (or more) distros together. I’m sure there’s a way you could have your KDE neon kernel plus BMC while having everything else Arch

thanksforallthefish, to privacy in Time to ditch #duckduckgo

Nope not locked. I have always on vpn (random countries) anti fingerprinting and DDG happily allows the search localisation to my actual or a different country

thanksforallthefish, to privacy in Is there any Firefox extension to automatically reject cookie popups?

Doesnt this mean that you’re by default agreeing to the cookies though ? I’ve tested not responding to the pop up on several websites and they all write cookies if you don’t respond

thanksforallthefish, to privacyguides in Thoughts on this Reddit post claiming 'Lemmy doesn't care about privacy'?

Slanted but accurate.

Neither Lemmy nor Reddit are private, they’re both publicly indexable (google et al).

On the other hand reddit goes to a lot of trouble to capture everything about you. Lemmy is not quite that greedy.

One is a for profit willing to do whatever it takes to make a buck. The other is FOSS and run by volunteers.

I think it’s pretty clear which is the greater threat.

thanksforallthefish, to linux in Amazon Building its Own Linux-Based OS to Replace Android

So just like android ?

thanksforallthefish, to privacyguides in It seems Gen Z is just fine with parents knowing where they are all the time

The plural of anecdote isnt data. I’ve been riding for 45 years and I’m still here.

Data shows the vast majority of 2 vehicle motorcycle accidents are the fault of the other vehicle

thanksforallthefish, to privacyguides in Cars are a 'privacy nightmare on wheels'. Here’s how they get away with collecting and sharing your data

1 Varies by brand and model, but usual a cellular connectivity module, aka telematics. Some cars you can simply pull a fuse, some make it hard

2 Killing the telematics by pulling a fuse can cut off inbuilt navigation functions or the entire display and control system depending on how integrated it is. Work arounds can include pulling the GSM module or faraday caging the antenna.

Need specific models for more specific answers.

thanksforallthefish, to piracy in What's the best way to pirate a recent Windows OS?

Well given op said download it from microsoft then yes it will be riddled with spyware but that’s the genuine windows experience® for you…

The downvoted guy you replied to is right. You can download the (genuine) iso off microsoft and install it without paying M$ anything, it will work fine other than not being able to change wallpaper etc.

If that small restriction annoys you the MAS (linked elsewhere in thread) is the answer

thanksforallthefish, to piracy in Why are some people uploading/seeding with only single digits B/s?

Not everyone on the internet lives in western countries with 1gb fibre connections, hell remote parts of the US are still stuck on very slow ADSL if they don’t have access to starlink.

Your seeder may be in ButtFucke WY or could be in a little village in Phillipines or Nigeria
