- Comment on When the government can see everything: How one company – Palantir – is mapping the nation’s data 2 days ago:
And worse: other governments are actively buying into this. German officials were shocked when by Cambridge Analytica, Snowden revelations and even when their phone number on Facebook was leaked. But hey, now that they want to pay for it, they can’t be the product, right? Right?🙈

According to www.soundguys.com/tidal-vs-qobuz-140740/ this is not the case.

Where can I get infected?Once inside the router, GayFemBoy’s string – the text in the malware’s code – displays the word ‘meowmeow’.
Sadly, this isn’t when you suddenly get a free cat out of this hack

I mean the Expedition 33 cast is basically French people.
- Comment on Stripe CEO Explains Why Stablecoins Are Winning Over Global Businesses 1 week ago:
Really? Do you have to be an idiot to be CEO?
- Comment on WiFi signals can measure heart rate—no wearables needed 1 week ago:
Which means we can have that data in Home Assistant sooner or later🤔
- Comment on [deleted] 2 weeks ago:
Because I have not seen it mentioned yet: the classification of porn and non-porn is often rather arbitrary on these systems, which leads to overblocking usually in the LGBTQ area. So while porn may be reduced (but not really because there always is more porn) it leads to blocking of educational material of a vulnerable minority.
That being said: if teens are interested in porn they will get it. These puritanical views of humanity are honestly naive.
- Comment on Backblaze is slow for Nextcloud. Any recommendations for faster s3 compatible storage? 4 weeks ago:
They dont detect at all. It depends on what location you choose when you register. So if you want to migrate, you have to create a new account.
- Comment on Is there a good selfhosted service that can download and rehost tiktok links from a web ui? 1 month ago:
I thought downloading and redistributing tiktok videos was against TikToks TOS?
Which you only agreed to if you have an account (and even then they realistically can only ban your account). If you rehost publically you might get issues with copyright laws though.
- Comment on Google failed to warn 10 million of Turkey earthquake severity 1 month ago:
Google may have had a moral responsibility to share information if they possessed it, but ultimately, isn’t it the government’s duty to warn its citizens about such disasters? After all, they are the ones responsible for the safety of the people they govern.
- Comment on `continuwuity` vs `tuwunel`: where to go from `conduwuit`? 1 month ago:
Understandable, trying to move friends and family between platforms is an herculean effort.
For everyone else interested in XMPP, you might want to check out:
- Snikket as a Server (intended to run on a cheap VPS): snikket.org/service/quickstart/
- Conversations.im as a Client: conversations.im
- ejabberd/prosody if you want to setup your own from scratch
- this compliance scanner which checks for (probably) the most common extensions for a chat server: compliance.conversations.im
- Comment on `continuwuity` vs `tuwunel`: where to go from `conduwuit`? 1 month ago:
No better alternatives around though if you want to own your data, have proper multi-client support, and at least the option to federate.
What about XMPP? What can Matrix do, that XMPP cant?
- Comment on Anubis is awesome! Stopping (AI)crawlbots 2 months ago:
Besides that point: why tf do they even crawl lemmy. They could just as well create a “read only” instance with an accoubt that subsribes to all communities … and the other instances would send their data. Oh, right, AI has to be as unethical as possible for most companies for some reason.

- Comment on Nexus Mods to Enforce Digital ID Age Checks Under UK and EU Laws 2 months ago:
It sucks that they have to do this. But I prefer this than to simply lock out users from the affected countries.
(Looking at steam here, not bothering to create age verification, which in turn means in some coubtries some games are not visible at all)
- Comment on Fairphone announces the €599 Fairphone 6, with a 6.31" 120Hz LTPO OLED display, a Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 chip, and enhanced modularity with 12 swappable parts 2 months ago:
I not only want a degoogled version but also a secure one. Sadly developing a secure android is rather hard. The Graphene team does it pretty well. Others try it too, but sadly they are not close.
- Comment on Steam Deck / Gaming News #21 2 months ago:
I’m way too young for this game to have any impact in my life, but I think the older members here might remember it. Released in 1997
Ouch, that driveby hurt🥲
- Comment on Sortable Table view with $/TB for serverpartdeals.com 2 months ago:
Meanwhile in Germany it is hard to get hard drives below 15€/TB.
- Comment on Hytale, once touted as the Minecraft killer, is ceasing development 2 months ago:
It is such a superior experience compared to Minecraft.
How so? It certainly cant compete in the mods category, can it? As far as I recall Minetest had multiple “Minecraft clones” each differing in completion and differing in support for further mods. Has that improved?
- Comment on What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ? 2 months ago:
Okay, but that men are privileged is a fact. Do all men do well because of that? No. But we need to work with the facts, so we can better the system for everyone.
- Comment on Covert Web-to-App Tracking via Localhost on Android 3 months ago:
Thanks for sharing this, it is ab interesting read (though an additional commebt about what this about would have been helpful).
I want to say I am glad I do not use either of these services but Yandex implementation seems so bad that it does not matter, as any app could receive their data🙈
- Comment on GitHub - gardner/LocalLanguageTool: Self-hosted LanguageTool private instance is an offline alternative to Grammarly 4 months ago:
Isn’t the issue with the different selfhosted variants that the official version has more language rules available?

- Comment on Recipes, Meal Planning, and Shopping List 4 months ago:
I personally like Tandoor a lot. The parsing works pretty well and every ingredient can be adjusted. And there is a pretty good mobile app with kitshn.app which is also my main shopping list, as I can create custom categories and add articles to that with tandoor.

The chaotic option, I like it.
- Comment on Oracle hid serious data breach from customers, now hacker has it up for sale 5 months ago:
I hope Oracle will finally send out mails to the affected customers. No idea if I am affected as Oracles login process is so convoluted that I have no desire to deal with it or understand it.

Maybe they won’t actively support fascists🥲
- Comment on Online ‘Pedophile Hunters’ Are Growing More Violent — and Going Viral: With the rise of loosely moderated social media platforms, a fringe vigilante movement is experiencing a dangerous evolution. 5 months ago:
In Austria the ‘pedophile hunters’ targeted gay men who were not pedophiles. If ‘paedophile hunters’ would actually care about their care, they would storm the next church…
