Get a couple of USB sticks. Format them with Veracrypt. Put instructions into a plain text README on one, and add whatever other files you need to. Copy all the stuff to the other one. Give the passphrase to a trusted friend to give to your

Yes. In the past I've been guilty of this... buy gear and than not use it. I stopped, I only buy it if I'm going to use it immediately. But it also now annoys me to see people under buying... people cheap out to save a few hundres

It's basically evil for app stores to police what information apps can access. If they wanna do this is a safemode for kids or whoever wants to opt in that's okay, but it's wrong to force it on everyone.

I feel so bad for the people there, what they have had to put up with for the last couple of years, and what they still have to endure. It's all so pointless.

If he had said that in early May it would be impressive. We've been watching the trainwreck unfold since then and it's most definitely not over.

It wouldn't have regular routing with Earth. The latency would break everything. Mars would have its own internet and the first key application would be a send and recieve queue system to connect earth. This would basically be a REST a

Did you mean that I can or can't disagree that blockchains are older than Bitcoin? Would you agree that various things that use cryptography or merkle trees including git, certificate transparency, including hashes in logs to prevent t

I really like how it just worked when I installed it and the AWS plugin. The second one I tried was tailscale... I get some different results to the same query which is weird and broken, and an error "device can only be managed by orig

This never had any potential to decide the fate of the open internet. IETF generally documents what things are, not what some actors hope things to be. Countries that want sovereignty (control) over the internet can limit connection and par

They help anyone who wants to pay trace crypto. Their product is well implemented, and they have skilled and motivated people. There are competitors who offer similar, and in my opinion not as well done, but for considerably money. I don&#x

Unless they have some reason to fear you, they'll just take it if they feel like it. Worse, if you're not Canadian they might send you back where you came from. And when they do it, they won't even tell you their names. What

"Hopkins said the FBI raided his home and tried to implicate his wife in the same case, but ultimately dropped the charges against any family members in exchange for a plea deal." Wow, scummy.
