- Comment on Introducing Proton Sheets 1 week ago:
a group called Youth for Climate was doing direct action in paris - occupying empty buildings near Place Sainte-Marthe to protest gentrification and airbnb bullshit. pretty standard stuff. they used a protonmail address to coordinate french cops wanted to know who was behind the email. proton is swiss so france couldnt just demand it. so they went thru europol, who asked swiss authorities, who then issued a court order to proton heres the part that matters: proton wasnt already logging this persons IP. the swiss court ordered them to start logging it. proton complied, collected the IP going forward, and handed it over. activist got arrested. charges were trespassing, theft, property damage protons response was basically “we had no choice, swiss law, we support activists but cant break the law for you.” they also quietly edited their website - it used to say “we do not keep any IP logs which can be linked to your anonymous email account.” now it doesnt say that the CEO said they didnt even know it was about climate activists when they got the order. which… okay? thats not really the defense you think it is my guy the takeaway: • proton can be legally compelled to start logging you specifically • swiss “privacy” folds when another country wants you bad enough • encrytpion doesnt protect metadata • if your doing anything that might piss off a state, use tor. proton even says this themselvs now
- Comment on Introducing Proton Sheets 1 week ago:
proton isn’t your friend I keep seeing people recommend protonmail like it’s some kind of activist infrastructure and it’s starting to bug me remember in 2021 when they handed over a french climate activist’s IP to the cops? swiss court order, data went through europol, person got arrested. this was while their website was still implying they couldn’t log you. they quietly changed the wording after they got caught and like… switzerland isn’t what people think it is. they have treaties with the US and EU, they share intelligence, their whole “neutrality” thing has always been about protecting money, not people. ask any dictator who parked their cash there also proton took VC money. it’s not a co-op, it’s not worker owned, it’s a company that sells privacy as a product. which means eventually the investors are going to want their returns and something’s gotta give none of this means “don’t use it” - it’s still better than google. but e2ee doesn’t hide metadata and metadata is often enough. your threat model matters. a corporation is not going to protect you from the state, ever

thank you! this needed said.
- This post is a bit critical of a small well-intentioned project, so I felt obliged to email the maintainer to discuss it before posting it online. I didn’t hear back.
i used to watch the dev on mastodon, they seemed pretty radicalized on killing AI, and anyone who uses it (kidding!!) i’m not even surprised you didn’t hear back
great take on the software, and as far as i can tell, playwright still works/completes the unit of work. at scale anubis still seems to work if you have popular content, but does hasnt stopped me using claude code + virtual browsers
im not actively testing it though. im probably very wrong about a few things, but i know anubis isn’t hindering my personal scraping, it does fuck up perplexity and chatgpt bots, which is fun to see.
good luck Blue team!

fair hit. shit got weird over there. i had a lot of depression. showering was one of the signs of that. Marines weren’t big on mental health treatments that didn’t involve physical labor or a weight room.

i’ve never understood dry shampoo for anything other than a one off. i used it in iraq and finally figured out it was causing me to get crazy dandruff. i talked to a corpsman about it, and they were like “just fucking shower, or stink, that shit is like washing your hands with sand, nothing is accomplished. shower jarhead.”
and ive lived that way ever since

- Comment on Bending fins in Active Cooler Pi5? PiNAS (Radax Penta SATA HAT + RaspberryPi5) 3 weeks ago:
A heatsink works by increasing surface area to dissipate heat through convection (air moving past it) and radiation (infrared energy). The key principle is:
Heat dissipation ≈ Surface Area × Temperature Difference × Heat Transfer Coefficient
but, for me, math is hard, so…
Why You Can Cut Fins Off (Usually)
- Diminishing Returns: Each fin you add provides less cooling benefit than the previous one because:
- Inner fins get less airflow (they’re shielded by outer fins)
- Heat has to conduct through more material to reach outer fins
- The temperature gradient decreases as you move away from the heat source
- The Rough Rule: A heatsink typically operates with 30-50% margin. So if it’s rated for 5W and your RPi CPU draws 3W, you have room to lose some fins.
- Fin Efficiency: There’s actually a mathematical concept called “fin efficiency” - fins that are too long or too closely spaced become ineffective. The last row of fins might only contribute 10-15% of total cooling.
Napkin Math Example
Say you have a heatsink with 8 fins:
- First 4 fins: ~60% of cooling
- Next 2 fins: ~25% of cooling
- Last 2 fins: ~15% of cooling
Cutting off one row (2 fins) loses maybe 10-12% of cooling capacity. If your CPU was running at 65°C with the full heatsink, it might now run at 68-70°C - usually fine since RPi CPUs throttle around 80-85°C.
When You Can’t Cut Fins
- If the heatsink was already barely adequate
- If you’re overclocking
- If ambient temps are already high
- If there’s no airflow
The real question to ask: “What’s my current CPU temp under load?” If it’s 60°C, cut away. If it’s 78°C, maybe find a different heatsink.
