It's more of a historical note at this point. modern shells have a builtin for [, to avoid that fork on every single if statement.

The piwik in OpenKeychain is gone in the 5.6 release. And it was always opt-in, of course. In defense of trackers: knowing what features your users use and don't use is a huge deal to decide where to spend time on and where not. This d

Answering my own question, it can work on a per-app basis. So far I haven't missed anything with per-device blocklists, but maybe I'm missing out :)

Happy customer of nextdns.io, which seems to offer the same benefits but isn't limited to Android. Is there anything this can do that nextdns can't?

It bears repeating: Telegram is not e2e encrypted. Messages you write on telegram will be stored on some Russian servers forever.

It would be a better way, but the technology hinges on support by e-mail providers. I wouldn't recommend holding your breath. The other contender is Autocrypt, which performs key exchange inline in emails in an automated fashion. It on

It is not! That's why the author recommends using the running instance at keys.openpgp.org, as a replacement for the sks pool. Note that Hagrid is not an "sks in rust". It is different in a lot of ways, see https:/&#x

Indeed, we are not at a stage yet where pointing "less technical users" to our website is very useful, since the main take away for those people is "stay tuned". We hope to be able to change this as implementations progr

11MWh average, 0.12 cents/kWh?! Power costs more than twice as much in Europe, and the average household uses half as much. No wonder you guys (in a twisted democratic sense of the word) aren't too fond of climate treaties.

I found this blog post very informative. Obviously it doesn't have the content of a book, but it conveys a good first intuition of what quantum computing can and cannot do. http://twistedoakstudios.com/blog/Post264
