After reading that article, I'm happy for the polish to live in a better state now, and I immediately started to think where people are now oppressed by their government whenever they are deemed 'harmful to the nation', and C

Thank you for your contributions on VLC. It shines bad light on the official institutions that they haven't checked back with you.

Even if Google didn't touch by a ten-foot pole the data that it logs and collects for services like faster location finding for Android devices, which I think is unreasonable to assume, it is still accessible to the government under th

I'm not hiding, I'm just not exposing myself. It's a matter of perspective. More significantly, you are understating and trivializing the kind of information that many services force us to expose. If you share your buying his

It is roughly 1.15^(365*20). That it is wrong was clear from its size. I wanted to use it's falseness to show that the assumptions are incorrect. Which they are, just not how I understood initially.

Efail was a problem specific to e-mail, not pgp. BTW, if you attacked e-mail as the insecure by design, factually oligarchic communication system it is, I'd be totally in agreement. GPG supports ed25519 ecc identities, which can be use

How else do you recommend to independently establish a verifiable identity if not with PGP?

Then substantiate the reasons for the celebration while giving context and facts. A post containing just "Good." is vague, uninspiring, unenlightening. It's noise.

We must be able to differentiate a phone playing a sound and a car by hearing alone, and that very quickly. We need a sound similar to emergency vehicle sirens but obviously less loud and dramatic. So it is very important to have a universa

Why give the opportunity to the coal plants but not everyone else? What you are proposing is again a favouribly treatment of coal plants, and we desperately need to make life difficult for them. We could, however, introduce a general carbon

The GPL is not self-serving; it is a tool to achieve a type of society, and that is the society you seem to enjoy, too. After all, by what else should be measure the permissive licences vs copyleft licences if not by their influence on soci

Engineering, technology, and science are deeply political, where politics isn't restricted to governments, parties, or official state systems. Refusal to recognize that doesn't change it. The GPL is a licence that was created by p

If two individuals who had no contact whatsoever reliably came up with the exact same ideas and structures, it is reasonable to view it as something objectively existing. On the other hand, is this philosophical debate of any relevance?
