My advice (not a lawyer) is to ignore the licensing fees; the patents will all be dead by 2027 anyway. Also I'm not responsible for whatever happens if you do this.

Note that Japanese X lacks a lot of the political insanity of normal X (or even Bluesky). They mostly discuss culture, hobbies, interests, and daily activity, rather than whatever outrageous thing some political lightning rod is doing at th

The social contract was "your ads aren't annoying or invasive, and don't waste my time, so I earn you some money" But ads are all of those things now, so I feel no obligation. I only got an ad blocker around the time a

There's a serious problem where people look at statistics and assume the constituent components are 100% evenly distributed. This is rarely the case.

> The whole idea of temporary addresses fails at this because the network prefix becomes the correlation ID. So the same as the public IPv4 on a traditional home NAT setup?

Yes, this is a major UX improvement considering I remove those with uBlock Origin anyway.

The truth is that I publish OSS projects on GitHub because that's where the community is, and the issues/pull requests/discussions are a bonus. If I just want to host my code, I can self host or use an SSH/SFTP server as

I feel like the issue with FIPS is not even the lagging behind, but the fact that FIPS-approved algorithms are often harder to implement than non-FIPS alternatives. WireGuard itself is the perfect example: ChaCha20-Poly1305 is relatively si
