If you want a nice new electric vehicle, (any vehicle really) in the US today you’re going to have to buy a spy mobile. No way around it.
Nobody has to drive a “nice new vehicle.” If your job is advocating for privacy, you should set a good example by driving an old car. (Or moonlight as an urbanist and ditch the car entirely, for that matter.)
However, my concern with kids is that they will desperately want to use the platforms that their friends are on and they will hold it against the parents (and alternative platforms) if they are forced to make do without the big tech ones.
This is literally my greatest worry as a parent.
…you say about a comic in which the human character has a hoodie and a cellphone.
I’m seconding the request for a writeup.
I second the recommendation for TP-Link running OpenWRT (that’s the important part).
I’ve been using a few Archer C7s for going on a decade at this point. (So long that they went from “OpenWRT” to “LEDE” to back to “OpenWRT”, LOL!) They’ve been working fine that whole time, and the only thing that annoys me about them is that they’re a funny shape instead of being rack-mountable.
But downside of a M series is either you run macOS or Asahi Linux and nothing else yet.
I’m OOTL; what is it about Apple Silicon Macs that apparently make them such trouble to support? If one distro can manage it, what’s stopping that code from being upstreamed to the mainline kernel etc.?
He said “sub $300” \s
The correct solution here is for courts to throw out the policies on grounds of vagueness etc. and hold the companies for the digital stalking they do. If not in the regulatory-captured US, at least somwhere else where they still give a shit about consumer rights.
The headline writer misspelled “disproven.”
Why the fuck is even Nature giving more credence to this delusional shit than it deserves?
You are weirdly combative and rude about this.
I see every reason to anticipate the possibility and look for actual solutions (not just workarounds) that would head it off, such as organizing to defeat “age verification” politically in the first place.
What are you going to do when it’s at the hardware and/or ISP level, and there are no workarounds for it?
Laundering copyright is what LLMs do. It is fundamental to how they function, which means that they are a fundamentally illegal technology.
Alternatively GPL could stipulate that AI implementation would trigger copyleft protections.
I argue that it already does.
To be clear, that was just an expression of frustrated cynicism rather than a warning of any actual policy change. Also, it’s law enforcement in Spain and France that have actually been doing stuff like that so far; I just wouldn’t be surprised if US cops jumped on the bandwagon.
Can’t blame you for wanting to stay away from the US, though!
GrapheneOS about to become illegal/probable cause for a terrorism charge. The goal is to criminalize everyone who opposes MAGA tyranny.

guess I need to look at bit for “how to stuff a huge graphics card into a mini box”.

(That’s only the latest in a whole series of videos of his on that topic.)
“Violat[ing] DRM policies” isn’t “misuse.” DRM itself is misuse of the machine owner’s property.
Anyway, you might have already foreclosed the possibility by talking about it on this Lemmy account if it can be traced back to you, but my suggestion would’ve been to release it as open source anonymously.
