This just in: those prone to lose touch with reality ended up losing touch with reality after engaging in practices that help you lose touch with reality.

Does Librem One allow you to download the OpenVPN/Wireguard profiles? Because then you can just download OpenVPN Connect and get just about the same experience. Sounds much more free than using a VPN app that can't be used with ot

As far as we know so far, there's still no way around the universal speed limit.

It's almost as if we need a society that doesn't revolve around owning high speed vehicles. But we've missed that boat, so automation is our next goal to drastically reduce the thousands of yearly deaths. I don't underst

There's plenty of data on it. Safety is _the_ number one thing people are paying attention to in self-driving cars.

Not that there shouldn't be any regulations, but that the direction regulations are going in are pretty heavy-handed when you consider how accepting as a society we are to have thousands of car accidents every single day, and thousands

There hopefully will be one soon! The backend was written haphazardly in a weekend, so once I clean it up to save myself some embarrassment, I'll open up the source on Github. I'll send you an email if that happens (using the one

Plus their How It Works page is pretty informative. And I've only ever heard of Security Policies used in an organization/company context to ensure employees have good security hygiene.

This is really clever. And looks like it's easy to self-host via Docker. > I wonder if there is a solution that would correctly deal with both situations (never requiring the other end to sign up or know anything about encryption).

D'oh, sorry about that. I have Little Snitch denying all connections to FB related domains so I didn't even bother to check the URL.

I would think FB is better off accepting liars, as their evident lack of a moral compass will make it easier to work on making a social media platform even more addictive and invasive.

I mean, it's no secret that Microsoft has a $10 billion contract with the US Government. And it's also no secret that attributing blame to cyber attacks is a hard problem. You can study the tools/exploits used, the files modi

But it's totally cool if we develop and sell the same tech to oppressive governments.

It encrypts the query with the public key of the search provider (Gigablast) then sends it over to https://search.private.sh/v2/search which then supposedly goes through a few proxies before finally hitting Gigablast,

Wow, this is ridiculously cool. Is the site open source?

Just a quick tip that helped my team with such issues: - For every call to an API, or input from the user, there should be a few tests checking for unexpected data This rule alone forces us to fix the majority of runtime errors such as this

Honestly, Signal's UI/usability used to be a valid critique, but now it's pretty much up to par with WhatsApp/Telegram. The only minor quip I've heard from friends transitioning to it is the lack of bold/italic

This is the boat I'm in. And even if you do "everything right" and have snapshots before & after every update, you still need to actually debug why the update failed in the first place. So even then, LTS releases would be

It can also take a while for a rating to go through. Once you tap the allotted stars you'd like to rate an app, you need to wait until you see the "Your feedback was submitted" modal to appear.

That's fair. I don't even have a Twitter account myself (except back when the Nintendo Switch required a social account to export screenshots). But I am _viewing_ tweets my friends share on an almost daily basis as its become the
