There are tools for this already… but it sure would be nice to have a Firefox plugin that scrubs all metadata on downloads by default.

Step one, be in full control of DNS on the network. Not difficult, but not simple.
- Comment on Day one and done 1 month ago:
How about this argument. Just a quality ratio.
2 large delivery pizzas, to the door: $50 all in. $25per 2 good quality frozen pizzas: $12. $6 per
So we could even say that delivery is four times better… and based on price/quality alone… they’re equal to frozen.
(I think we all know I’m not proposing an actual serious argument. But the cost difference is wild)
- Comment on Proton Mail Discloses User Data Leading to Arrest in Spain 1 month ago:
Companies selling data don’t tend to be picky who they sell to. Governments and police buy data all the time.
The best part is a government can buy data and the decide what is illegal. So, if they decide tomorrow that your innocent behavior is a threat, you’re now a criminal.

The backlash is generally against all enshitification.
You get a useful free plan. Make it useless over time to convince people to pay for a plan. Make THAT plan useless over time to make people pay for the more expensive plan… repeat until capitalism ends.
That’s why people care.

He and the shareholders still made a ton of money. They will do it again so they can make a ton more money.
He doesn’t care and never will.

More like paying to prevent someone from assaulting you and taking all your stuff. Literally all of society is built from this foundation.

I think it would prob be a population density map. Higher populations like cities tend to be better at accepting people (massively generalizing)

Yeah this map would have much smaller areas. If you broke it down into safe counties or something

What would you say is your version of a media company run by fascist Russian sympathizers used to destabilize populations where you’re from? You can just substitute that.

- Comment on FLOSS communities right now 4 months ago:
This entire thread is just a bunch of old nerds screaming at the tide.
Hate stuff all you want. It isn’t going to change anything. “People should do this or that”. It must be exhausting to be so angry at something but do nothing about it.
Imagine using all this energy to really understand while people use Discord and try to make something better.
OR join these projects you apparently like and volunteer to do the extra work to publisher useful documentation. Unless of course you never intend to be useful to FLOSS and just want everyone else to do the work for you.
OR you can continue to complain and get nowhere while completely alienating an entire generation of developers. They’ll eventually forget you exist while they’re busy making the future happen.
I’m sure the folks that are doing the work aren’t hanging out on Lemmy complaining about kids these days.

It took quite a few people flying through windshields and getting impaled on steering wheels before the next generation decided that seat belts were a good idea. This is pretty typical human behavior

There is probably some secret rich person drug that they’re all doing that makes them this way. We’ll find out about it in a few decades.
Like lead on gasoline
