Apparently so... couldn't be bothered with an account to go check...

isn’t IPv6 going to somehow mitigate that issue?

AFAIK all IPv6 does is ensuring everybody and their dog gets a publicly addressable IP address, plus encryption, but i'm far from an expert.

The self-hosting email frustration arises from years of cartelization under the "it's to prevent spam" banner (if it was to backdoor encrypted apps they'd go with "think of the children").

Like something like I2P?

I think I2P is an overlay layer, i haven't delved into that... i assume it would require that the recipient was on I2P as well. So impractical, to say the least.

Do you have any clue where or how we can join a community/group that somehow fights back those kind of unfair and monopoly behavior of big tech companies ?

It's a David vs Goliath thing... the EFF does some interesting stuff, maybe they have something of interest to you. Then there's politicians if a) they actually represent you and b) can grasp the concepts.

Tailscale

Have you considered Headscale?

What's your mail stack and your take on self-hosting dying?

Mr Wallace will make you regret that.

Depends on your threat modeling.

I have an address to register in irrelevant sites and the provider is also irrelevant.

I have an address for important use (utilities' bills, government stuff, friends), currently tuta.

I also have an alias there for occasional registrations.

I'd try proton (has an .onion site) but they force you to supply a phone number or email address on registration, which for me defeats the purpose. They also leak a lot of links to clearnet.

Self-hosting has become increasingly hard but I haven't tried it.

due to deployment hell you end up using docker

Maybe tackle that deployment hell instead of band-aiding it with docker?

The comment section mentions that conundrum as well... quite interesting.

[–] 0x0@programming.dev 10 points 6 days ago (3 children)

The comment thread in that article is interesting. Grep for Ada.

OF course they're more prone to blackouts, and what the study says is that they're less likely to cause severe blackouts than traditional power systems, because they're distributed so that reduces the likeliness; and grids rely on other systems as baseline anyway.

DNS, most web searches, trackers in apps, location data, just to name a few. Ad blockers won't help you there.

besides not using Google?

That's a bit oxymoronic, isn't it? And the answer always depends on your threat model, so start there.

 

Twitter will remove nonconsensual nude images within hours as long as that media is reported for having violated someone’s copyright. If the same content is reported just as nonconsensual intimate media, Twitter will not remove it within weeks, and might never remove it at all, according to a pre-print study from researchers at the University of Michigan.

 

The U.S. government now appears free to sell 69,370 Bitcoin that it seized from a Silk Road-affiliated wallet.

I have a 2nd-gen chromecast, it's factory reset. If i plug it in all it tells me is to install the app to start configuring.

I don't have a google account not do i want to install/use google-related stuff on my phone.

My home router doesn't register any new device, which makes sense since the cast doesn't know the SSID/pass of the WiFi.

Does it try to ping some service/port? Multicast perhaps? Where would it get an IP from without authenticating?

My (wired) PC runs gentoo.

How can i get it to work in these conditions?

Imagine your car playing you an ad based on your destination, vehicle information—and listening to your conversations.

Ford has patented a system that, per the filing, would use several different sources of information to customize ad content to play in your car. One such information stream that this hypothetical system would use to determine what sort of ads to serve could be could be the voice commands you’ve given to the car. It could also identify your voice and recognize you and your ad preferences, and those of your passengers. Finally, it could listen to your conversations and determine if it’s better to serve you a visual ad while you’re talking, or an audio ad when there’s a lull in the conversation.

If the system described in the patent knew that you were headed to the mall on the freeway based on destination information from the nav system and vehicle speed, it could consider how many ads to serve in the time you’ll be in the car, and whether to serve them on a screen or based through the audio system. If you respond more positively to audio ads, it might serve you more of those—how does every five minutes sound?

But what if the weather’s bad, traffic is heavy, and you’re chatting away with your passenger? Ford describes the system using the external sensors to perceive traffic levels and weather, and the internal microphone to understand conversational cadence, to “regulate the number (and relevance) of ads shown” to the occupants. Using the GPS, if it knows you’ve parked near a store, it might serve you ads relevant to that retail location. Got passengers? Maybe you get an audio ad, and they get a visual one.

Given how consumers feel about advertising and in-car privacy, it is difficult to imagine an implementation of this system that wouldn’t generate blowback. But again, the patent isn’t describing some imminent implementation; it just protects Ford’s IP that describes a possible system. That said, with the encroachment of subscription-based features, perhaps it’s only a matter of time before you’re accepting a $20/month discount to let your new Ford play you ads on your commute.

What do you use? I'm looking for as many of the following as possible:

  • included battery, preferably rechargeable from the motorcycle's own battery, meaning
  • negligible idle consumption
  • EU coverage, supporting 3-4 constellations
  • 4G+, i provide the e/SIM (i.e. no included plan unless it's grrrreat and cheap af)
  • small form factor (for a naked bike)
  • privacy-respecting app (preferably not relying on AWS, Google Maps, etc) and/or website
  • motion-detection/geofencing
  • cheap of course

I had a cheap one from eBay but the chinese-quality app would sometimes lag hours behind - not useful for an eurotrip.

When Google, along with a consortium of other companies, announced the open-source operating system we call Android way back in 2007, the world was paying attention. The iPhone had launched the same year, and the entire mobile space was wary of the rush of excitement around the admittedly revolutionary device. AOSP (Android Open Source Project) was born, and within a few years Android swallowed up market share with phones of all shapes and sizes from manufacturers all over the globe. Android eventually found its way into TVs, fridges, washing machines, cars, and the in-flight entertainment system of the Boeing 787 Dreamliner.
