I’m Spanish. 16 or death.

You can’t eat 1kg of apples, only .5kg before it goes bad. So you give the other .5kg away. Melsaskca also can’t eat another .5kg of potatoes, so they give them away.

Which one?

Rounded corners, the weird rainbow hue, glossy effects and css animations are like the piss filter of vibe coded websites

That looks vibe coded

The issue with “tech-leaning” people who believe AI is the future is that they’re in the “peak of mount stupid” part of the Dunning-Kruger curve. Once you get past that, you realize AI was never good at anything and it’s harmful to everyone in a million different ways. Most of lemmy’s tech-leaning people have already realized that, and are actively trying to avoid AI.

If it is a productivity boost for you, it is at the cost of someone else who will have to proofread and test everything you do. LLMs (and genAI) are useless.

I got a 16TB HDD for 300€, yesterday I looked at it and it was 800€ (apparently discounted from 1000€ lol)

Keep in mind that:

• Anonymous mode doesn’t really do anything, but it also doesn’t hurt having it on.
• Disabling DHT and PeX will make you unable to download torrents from certain platforms, like TPB, unless they are also registered in other trackers.

In addition, I’d also set it to only allow encrypted connections, which for some reason they don’t say there.

Either way, Mullvad is not a good VPN for torrenting, because it can’t do port forwarding anymore. You already know this, but you’ll have a lot of issues with low torrent availability, low speeds and a difficulty to seed.

If you already don’t mind paying for a VPN, why not look into seedboxes? They also hide your IP when torrenting, they can have port forwarding and better speeds than your VPN or home internet, they’re online 24/7 so you can seed a lot, and you can connect to them with a VPN to get the torrented files if you really want.

Additionally, you can also buy a VPN with port forwarding and bind only your torrent client to it, so that no other traffic or information is flowing through it. This works if you don’t trust any VPN offering port forwarding.

If you want an explanation on the private tracker logic: Private trackers usually have requirements to join. That way, companies can’t plant fake seeds that identify you and snitch to the ISP. They’re also relatively small, so not closely monitored. When you get a torrent from a private tracker, DHT, PeX and local peer discovery are disabled on that torrent. As long as you have encryption enabled, you’ll be relatively safe from ISP letters. However, this only applies if you’re getting your torrents only from private trackers.

I’m going off of an informed guess, so don’t quote me on this one. But it could be irrecoverably deleted.

Usually phone storage is encrypted, and it gets decrypted with your PIN. The whole file isn’t actually encrypted with the PIN, it uses way more secure passwords, and it uses different passwords for different pieces of the data. Those passwords are basically impossible to crack, and even if you cracked one, you’d get a very small piece of all the data. Of course, you can’t memorize all those, so they get stored in a sector called the encryption header. That sector is what the PIN decrypts, and everything else is decrypted with the passwords in the header.

Most of these “quick deletion” systems don’t even delete anything from the drive. They just delete the headers. They’re small enough that you can overwrite them multiple times in a very short time, so you can properly blank them. Without the headers, the rest of the drive is virtually impossible to decrypt, so the data is as good as gone.

Not only that, but both ChromeOS and Android run on top of the Linux kernel

The bus lane is red! That proves it!

Well, at least one pedophile is orange

Personally I think it’s absolutely batshit insane that people walk on the sidewalk with bikes, if I walk I’m doing it on the… uhm…

I personally use Unexpected Keyboard (github link).

It’s lightweight, very customizable and it works completely offline. It doesn’t have any AI or autocorrect/word suggestions.

It’s also designed for use in termux and has all the symbols you could ever need. It can also have a compose key, if you come from Linux and are used to it.

The main gimmick is that you type symbols by swiping to a corner of the key with the symbol, instead of changing to the symbols keyboard or long pressing a character. When you get used to it, it’s faster than gboard.

It’s available on F-Droid, too.

Indeed he is. Had the misfortune of seeing some of it.

Hell, as far as I know, E2EE would be indistinguishable from client to server encryption, where the server can read everything without the need for a secret “backdoor key”. You can see that the channel is encrypted, but you can’t know who has the other key.

Piracy (and Anna’s Archive)'s mission is to share information, especially culture, with everyone, regardless of their ability to pay for it and regardless of the geoblocks. Keeping the service hidden may benefit you and the few people that know about it, but it isn’t the purpose of these sites. They felt they were protected enough, and they decided to take another step towards their objective, that’s it.

In practice, nothing’s gonna happen. They already have 4 different domains. Even if they managed to seize the servers and cancel every domain, all of Anna’s Archive data is out there on public torrents, and their software is also FOSS. Anyone can make a mirror.

Nuclear is not economically feasible and still does have its fair share of problems. It also generates waste, even if at far less scale than fossil fuels. Wind and solar are cheap and very scalable in most countries, which makes them economically feasible (and can also accelerate a move from fossil). Don’t be so quick to discard them.

As a matter of fact, last month, in Spain, we generated more energy just from wind than from nuclear. (31.7% vs 21.4%) source

They are, and many of them have existed for centuries. Most cork now is probably synthetic, but there are still some places where people harvest cork.
