I don't believe this is true, do you have more details? It's needed for authentication but locally, it should be nearly fully functional. At worst, you should need to set up a subnet that's allowed without auth in the server&

I agree with the sentiment but based on the text of the ruling, I can't agree with the ruling itself [0]. Missing from your summary is: - "The applicant, Violeta-Sibianca Lăcătuş, is a Romanian national who was born in 1992 and l

It can be "very, very old" in its context. If a new release comes out every year, support duration is 5 years and you're 2 years past EOL, I'd agree that the software can be called "very, very old".

That's fair, I just wanted to explain why "made outside the US" could be a valid selling point. Regarding hacking Google and ignoring the law, isn't that essentially what PRISM was? Do we have any reason to believe US in

That could be true but only applies to people subject to the American legal system, i.e. those with American citizenship or living on American soil. For the other 96% of us, the American legal system offers no protection whatsoever, as far

I think you're missing a bigger issue: if the data is in America, nothing needs to be hacked . Your data can be obtained through legal means. Plus, if you're not an American citizen, you have no rights so far as three-letter agen

If you're looking for a Moleskine kind of size but want paper that isn't terrible, I like Leuchtturm1917 [0]. It's reasonably easy to get a hold of in all of the parts of the world I've lived in so far. [0]: https:/

Australians being Australians, I wouldn't be at all surprised if Google pulling out simply led to VPN subscriptions spiking. It's been a while but Australia used to be in a position where Australians were hungry for US-made media

What you said wasn't incorrect, just slightly ambiguous. To be less ambiguous, I'd just say "the second largest exchange in Germany" and ditch Stuttgart.

I put them into Bitwarden alongside the password. Yes, that means that there's a single place where both factors are stored but if Bitwarden has two-factor authentication (it does), the two factors are preserved.

Federation would, technically, decentralize the network and ensure there is no single point of failure. Federation would mean Matrix is about as likely to have a network-wide outage as email (or, for a more apt comparison, Mastodon). Realis

I'm curious, what do you do with so many PWM outputs? I just play with electronics for side projects but stick to digital for everything, so I'm wondering what I'm missing out on.

Yes, use tools that are specifically designed for censorship-resistance like Tor, Freenet or I2P. If you ensure that nobody knows who hosts your servers, you can even continue to host them at the big cloud providers.

FYI, in English, "news" is singular, e.g. "I saw a politician shouting on the news", so it should be "Romanian news is" (and I think it should also have a "the"). I know this makes no sense and in oth

Do you happen to know why there's no plural form for the borrowed nouns ending in "o", like "radio"? Russian treats these words as neuter, which usually replaces the "o" with an "a" to form the p

I have a couple of objections to that: - These companies aren't monolithic. If you object to say Google's monopoly on advertising, you can take a job on a team that has nothing to do with it, like image compression. - If you disag
