Aspiring polymath.Trying to make things better. Opinions are my own and subject to change

  • Ahh, Lemmy shit post, makes sense now

  • World'bt

  • Sounds like corruption is playing a part in this

  • So many people on Lemmy are pessimistic as shit, makes it hard to read the comments sometimes

  • I think they are doing this above board, so it's just "contracts". It's not illegal, just shortsighted. Just like lobbying isn't technically bribery because it's "official bribery" so it's got a different name.

  • I ran /r/cryptotechnology for years, and am good friends with the /r/cc mods. Reddit is a mess though, especially in the crypto areas.

  • Ugh, I can relate. My buddy was recommending zwave for years and I ignored him because I got annoyed setting up one of the old USB dongles. The new ones are way better and zwave/zigbee is great.

  • Fair point, I agree with this. There should probably be another icon in the browser that shows if all, some, or none of the media on a page has signatures that can be validated. Though that gets messy as well, because what is "media"? Things can be displayed in a web canvas or SVG that appears to be a regular image, when in reality it's rendered on the fly.

    Security and cryptography UX is hard. Good point, thanks for bringing that up! Btw, this is kind of my field.

  • The best way this could be handled is a green check mark near the video that you could click on it and it would give you all the meta data of the video (location, time, source, etc) with a digital signature (what would look like a random string of text) that you could click on and your browser would show you the chain of trust, where the signature came from, that it's valid, probably the manufacturer of the equipment it was recorded on, etc.

  • This is some people after Adderall

  • YES this. We should start a community. I hate advertising, absolutely hate it, and do everything I can to avoid it. Pihole ✅, YouTube premium ✅, sponsorblock ✅, Firefox ✅, ublock origin ✅.

    What else am I missing, I want it all blocked!
