Found Jonathan Swift’s Lemmy account.

Matrix is aimed at enterprise sized organizations and it shows.

I am an old fart and still find pretty solid deals on craigslist.

They can still eat shit since they STILL fund anti-lgbtq organizations, to my knowledge.

I love my local LLM voice recognition on my PC through Speech Note on Linux.

But even if the technical side of security is top notch, infiltration would be trivial…

Yeah really bad opsec all around in a LOT of these groups, but I’m not really sure how you organize without a means of communications. I think collective ownership of the means of communication is just as important to laborers as collective ownership of the means of production.

Honestly, I’m really less worried about myself and more worried about people in more dangerous situations where the cost of such a thing dwarfs even the cost to me. There’s tons of people out there who are being actively monitored by their governments and they simply can’t afford it. Like all the dirt poor immigrants being deported to countries they have never been to.

I think his name was Cornelius.

I get their reasoning but it fucks over a lot of people without the finances to always buy a brand new google devices and who absolutely need that kind of security.

Really grinds my gears because in the end it means only the moderately wealthy really get the benefit.

I have a pixel 6a I got refurbished and I dont have options but to make it last as long as I can and I’ve already had to change the battery manually once myself.

Sounds like a massive class action suit waiting to happen.

Think methheads stealing wire are bad now? Just you wait and see.

Also genuinely only idiots think it surpasses human intelligence in any way whatsoever.

It’s almost like there is rampant corruption going on or something!!

I had never used Matrix outside direct messaging so I was unaware of the lack of key revocation.

Windows DNS (I’m sorry)

Lmao. Hey what works for you is what works for you, don’t let naysayers steer you wrong.

It pains me that new achewood is behind a paywall. I understand it, I can’t justify affording it.

Fleet Commander 🚀

• Fleet: More than 10 devices · 21–50 TB
• Motivation: Independence from Big Tech & subscriptions, Fun / the hobby itself, Customization & full control
• My MVPs: Homepage, homelable.net, healthchecks.io, ntfy.sh, WireGuard

My fleet sounds bigger than it is since theyre all small or older and also small underpowered devices (repurposed laptops, low end chromebox, various pis).

i think you have to set up DoH with unbound to make it not be in cleartext? I dunno honestly I’m a dummy, but I’m fairly sure that it’s pretty tricky to get it totally secured. I guess I don’t understand why you can’t use ubound recursively but have its root.hints pointing as something like quad9 instead of all the actual root authoritative dns servers, theres like 13 of them and more than half are the US government.

Lubuntu definitely seems about the lightest weight desktop environment for it for sure. I suppose Ubuntu server can be pretty light… But so are most linux servers, that’s kind of their selling point.

MaddieM added even more that I thought was salient in another response:
