As a general rule, try not to post side profiles of keys on the internet. It makes it very easy for someone to create dummy keys that can unlock your stuff.

I’d say if:

• you don’t have the opportunity to work for it (stealing is the only option)
• you aren’t stealing from a small business or market.
• you’re stealing food based on nutrition, not something high end for better taste

then you’re completely ethically sound in my mind if you choose to steal.

Anything the IRS comes up with to exploit Monero will probably end up getting fixed by the community in a matter of days. I’m sure they know that too, so something tells me they won’t invest too much money into cracking it.

People complain when I tell them I’m not a huge fan of the MIT license. This is why. Its not that I don’t like MIT licensed software, but it makes it easy for stuff like this to happen.

Keybase

The fact that they recommend several proprietary programs, as well as Signal and a Zoom owned project. I’d understand compromising on Signal since its easy to use, but how could a service geared towards hardcore privacy enthusiast promote proprietary software.

I use this and its fantastic for basic logging. It might not be the best for business applications but I love it for personal use.

Method of death: licked to death by said kitties.

You may not like to hear this, but Apple Arcade seems to fit all of your criteria.

I have a 5700XT. as far as I know, it should work fine with kernel 5.11 and Mesa 21, but the GPU was finnicky to begin with, so its possible this update is what caused it to totally die.

in short, the GPU is capped at 640x480, which is so low that I can’t even get into BIOS to troubleshoot.

This might explain why my GPU just suddenly stopped working on Pop!_OS.

That nearly every modern car communicates with cell towers.

Any Linux distro will work great at its core for programming, so it really boils down to your workflow. if you do all your coding from the command line, you’ll probably want a lighter weight distro. However, if you’re a fan of GUI programming environments you would probably be happier with a distro like Pop!_OS, which has a really well integrated window tiling system as well as a more traditional desktop environment

Some project related to free and open source cars. I love driving, and appreciate technologies like ABS, ESC, and TCS, but they always seem to come on cars that have a cell modem. I would love an enthusiast style car that runs only FOSS

Confession: When I first switched to Linux from MacOS, I genuinely didn’t realize that brew on MacOS was supposed to recreate apt (or other package managers). I thought homebrew on Linux was a knock off of Homebrew on MacOS

Smart watches are tricky for me. I like to have my fitness tracked and graphed, but I also love the feeling of a premium watch. Right now I wear a Apple Water Edition, which feels extremely premium, but I have the sensors taped over since I don’t trust its proprietary software, and don’t even use an iPhone regularly.

Contrarily, I’d love to wear a FOSS smart watch to track my fitness, but I’d then lose out on the quality feeling of a nice watch.

Its a tricky balance, and I hope at some point in the future a company builds a premium smart watch running a well polished FOSS OS

I watch DT quite a bit, but Ive never seen him go off about ‘broken people’. Do you happen to have a link?

Thats the other thing. Right now I use Matrix as my primary chat program, mainly for this reason. Even if Signal released all of their source code for the next year, at the end of that year, they could simply revoke the source code, and force you to either continue using their service, or stop talking to your contacts.

Whenever I question Signal on Reddit, I get downvoted to hell.

In terms of privacy, I still vastly trust Signal over WhatsApp, Snapchat, etc. But they’ve been sketching me out more and more lately. First was them making Signal dependent on Google services. Then there was them threatening to sue projects that attempted to create forks of the project without said Google dependencies. Now it’s them not disclosing the source code for their server side software.

In their defense, the client is still mostly open source, but they need to stop acting like some savior for privacy when they are so hostile to open source.

I agree, but I also think there’s still a place for heavier vehicles. Like, for day to day commuting, there’s no reason you need that much weight to move a single person, but when I’m going anywhere above 50MPH, I’d much rather have some weight to the car for sake of safety. Millions of people who live in cities could probably do just fine with a bike or other smaller vehicle, but there are just as many people who wouldn’t be in the position to safely drive a lighter vehicle.
