    Been daily driving ubports for about 4 years now (OP5T, Noble). The system has its quirks, it sometimes reboots without reason (though its rare, I experience something like that on…

    but its just standard element, in firefox I can even right-click to change the speed to 2x. It's certainly better privacy-wise.

    I found them randomly in the opencode providers list. Can't find any info on them, but they claim to have solved confidential computing: https://docs.privatemode.ai/security/#verif…

    Not sure which thread you're referring to, but yeah, it is a legit question. I genuinely wondered what made the OP state that it's proven that mullvad doesn't collect logs. While I…

    While their account privacy policy is commendable, it isn't a proof for not collecting logs. Even without personal details you can collect quite a lot of data - ip address that use…

    > I’ve always been a happy Mullvad customer. For 5 euros a month, I pay a Swedish company that has proven it doesn’t log any data How did they prove that? Is such proof even possib…

    In no serious case have I ever considered connecting to my PC terminal using phone. Connecting from PC to phone makes sense, but when talking the opposite situation, phones simply …

    I think that the main problem is that android has a lot of weird modifications that are not consistent with the rest of linux distros. The user data is suddenly in /data instead of…

    Some time ago I actually downloaded bazzite to run in a VM in order to play some indie games from itch.io and to not worry about them doing some shady things on my computer. I inst…

    It's only a short term solution, as all countries around the world (even those third-world ones, with current fertility rate above 4.0) are experiencing lower birthrates every year…

    the problem with decentralized alternatives is that they are even less stable than matrix currently is, and therefore less adoptable by non-tech people. I'd love to spend more of m…

    I like matrix, but I'm glad they decided to go with SimpleX as an alternative instead of slack, discord etc. XMPP would be fine too i guess, but I think that projects like SimpleX …

    Most interesting, will bear that in mind. To this date I haven't encountered any "drastically wrong" symptoms with my d3 usage and frankly haven't heard that much about any adverse…

    I take 8000 D3 (+200ug K2 MK7) daily and I'm fine. since covid I go like this for entirety of winter and then back down when summer comes. Perhaps you live in a climate where you g…

    What I wish for would be some kind of frontend for viewing hacker news (specifically the comment section) in a way that imageboards behave. I've never adapted to the reddit-style c…

    In the scenario with mailservers with PGP encrypted messages I did intend the messages to be encrypted client side, perhaps it was not clear enough. When I selfhost my own server (…

    Huh, it's true. I thought an organization that needs $50M yearly to function[1] would employ more people. Still, I think it's fair to call them "pretty big" looking on how much med…

    Yeah, that's true. If they did though, then I think that they'd be more secure than with Signal, at least in this certain aspect of message storage.

    Comment #45462053

    My point is that to this date everyone was not post-quantum secure, and only the people whom had their messages stored on their servers only can be sure that someone won't read the…

    It is possible for them to say that they deleted the messages without actually deleting them though. One has to trust a pretty big company in order to not worry about the messages …

    This is actually disturbing, as the article suggests that all previous messages sent using Signal are decryptable with quantum computers. If there are people with, for example, sel…
