IMO it's better to think of a directory as "containing" only the named references to inodes. Other directories on the same filesystem may contain other named references to the same inodes ("hard links"). The inode

They probably wouldn't sell terminals straight to Brazilian customers but rely on resale to keep their hands clean. I'm not sure how feasible first finding and then fining/arresting owners would be. The proposed VPN fines wer

Just how important are the ground stations in Brazil? (I don't mean the end user terminals.) If Starlink will basically continue to work well enough if those are seized, it seems like the obvious next steps are going to be crypto/

It can be looked at as cognitive defense. I don't want a hostile ad/surveillance system to charm me with relevance.

The noise is annoying per se, but also: stealthy != illegitimate. For example think of trying to document something abusive going on around you, and being betrayed by "your" tool. More fundamentally, it's just not a tool&#x27

So fix your backend to exempt Tor visitors from those measures, if it's really all due to hallucinating clusters of abuse from a network where abuse categorically does not appear in clusters of the kind that your backend is attempti

Uh huh. And what suspicious thing about the network would you be detecting for Tor Browser users arriving on the .onion? Their network is uniform as far as you can tell, and you are blocking them from opening either a free account without

As always when people post this, I just tried it with Tor Browser, and, as always: "No verification method available" Did you access the .onion with something more fingerprintable like Brave?

Proton forbidding anons from opening free accounts might be necessary for anti-spam/deliverability. But even paid accounts? "They accept cryptocurrency, but only for existing accounts - after you've already doxxed yoursel

Yes, Proton is hostile to Tor even though they deceptively market themselves as anonymity friendly: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37174259 It's a stark contrast to Tuta, which allows anonymous account creation w

No you give them the Blu-ray and the USB drive Gifting only the USB drive makes more sense for a nice movie collection like in the linked Twitter thread

Why not use MakeMKV to remux it for them, from the fragile and DRM-infested Blu-ray into a sane .mkv on a USB drive that they can plug into the back of their TV: https://nitter.net/turtlekiosk/status/17090573251709

The Pixel 7 Pro only has one eSIM chip too, which you're using with the MEP (Multiple Enabled Profiles) feature: "This feature allows devices to have dual SIM support using a single eSIM chip, which can have multiple SIM profiles

Generally yes for stock OS. I like that GrapheneOS doesn't give a shit (and they don't have to, because they're not selling phones): "Wireless alerts are fully optional since GrapheneOS adds a toggle for the otherwise ma

Not to defend the practice but I think the intent is to allow scraping (or API access) only by the price comparison site but not by competitors. (Why wouldn't the competitors then just scrape the price comparison site? Because that s

"A phone number is sufficient to password reset a Twitter account even if not used as 2FA " This sucks because Twitter will sometimes force you to link a phone number to the account if it doesn't like your VPN or whatever

https://esim.me is selling an eUICC-on-a-physical-SIM card. The only part that sucks is that you have to provision eSIM profiles through their proprietary Android app. Someone please reverse engineer it?
