I never like reading and probably never will. So it feels good to read something that doesn't affect me (personally). Really love how this article is written, the choice of words a…

Bitcoin was the first famous crypto currency. But it has been surpassed by many other digital coins with lower fees, more transactions per second, better technical design and all t…

I always laugh when people claim their Apple computers are secure and privacy friendly compared to Windows 10. They are certainly not. The only viable OS at this point is Linux and…

Exactly, I'm running fine without Pulseaudio, Policykit and SystemD. Good old sysv init scripts always work, less complexity means less chance for bugs creeping in.

Can relate to this, audacious was terribly slow in the past but it's a pretty good music player now. However, the Winamp skin hasn't dated that well imo

Looks like fun and it's a game that's been on my watchlist for years. But I've reached an age where I'm pretty sure that once I finish the rocket and escape the planet (that's what…

I've used the free MaxMinds database for a while but since the last year I've been using iplist.cc. It supports IPv4, IPv6, shows if an IP is tor, spam, which ASN and a lot more. I…

Really interesting distro to just test things and to use Curl without exposing your real IP. However, it always bothers me when Tails detects the virtual machine VirtualBox as bein…

The author doesn't seem to have much experience with running a business. The enterprise pricing makes a lot of sense when you know you need a service for multiple years. The bucket…

"1. PGP is old and broken and messages can potentially be decrypted without access to private key" Absolute nonsense, PGP is perfectly safe. Blame the broken cowboy software implem…

Looks interesting, the minification looks like a pretty good selling point. One thing I noticed is the slow connection from Australia, it seems your CDN is limited to Europe and Am…

This is pretty awesome, I've been migrating from C# and NodeJS back to PHP and it's awesome. Want to know why? - Everything is either built-in or can be enabled from an OFFICIAL re…

Except this is not about enforcing opportunities for a certain group but to prevent a group certain privileges based on their skin color and sexual orientation. Discrimination is n…

Really extensive and interesting to read, thanks for doing this!

It's sad to see how these fires are automatically linked to climate change. Until the mid 2000's Australia burned down small patches of forests to prevent large disasters like thes…

+1 for Mullvad. Been using them since the beginning but never used their support so can't comment on that. One thing that bugged me was the general instability of Mullvad vs others…

Don't use it myself but this is great news. I'm happy to see Adriaan is so open about everything that goes on (also the bad things). Something that I always find difficult for proj…

Looks cool and it works pretty well so far. But why no https?

I really doubt the recording is actually deleted from all of their servers. Wouldn't be surprised when a few years from now there is another news item about how they accidentally k…

What a horrible site, it tries to hijack the back button, full screen cookie warning and uBlock has over a dozen items blocked.

A few years back I ditched Pulseaudio for regular Alsa and it's been a godsend. No more crackling audio on bluetooth devices, alsamixer which can set all the volume levels and ever…

Except the videos of Watson aren't spreading hate or violence but he is just another person with an opinion. Because it's unpopular opinion and because he worked with Infowars in t…

Yes, probably.

Disagree, on most of my systems I don't even have swap partition anymore. The few times I need it, I can just create a swap file on the fly and have any amount of swap memory. Perf…

One of my most used programs. The more I use it, the more features I come to rely on, like using sshfs (although it's separate program), scp, ssh-copy-id, etc.
