Can you explain why you would think Steam is so bad? I would argue they’re pretty fair, especially with the option to buy steam cards for cash to not disclose your personal data. Does the client do some unsavory shit?

I thought it looked like Rubio is jerking Bibi off

There’s nothing to laugh about. The maniacally evil thing about recall is, that it doesn’t matter what you do to keep your devices clean. If you interact with someone who doesn’t keep his devices clean, which is 100% of us, you’re on recall

And a music player probably doesn’t need to be bleeding edge either. So it’s pretty much a one off thing.

Qwant uses Bing search results AFAIK.

I don’t know anything about HMD so I can’t add to that. However I’d like to correct you regarding the headphone jack. The people that like it so much are generally privacy enthusiasts. Leaving your Bluetooth on makes you easily trackable. Using USB-C headphones helps in that regard but expediates wear and tear on the port by a lot and often makes the phone unusable a lot quicker, because you obviously need it for charging. Audio jacks generally have very low wear and tear. Hope that helps you understand we’re not crazed evangilists hanging on to the past for the sake of it.

I’ve gotten this advice a bajillion times. It’s not the worst advice, but the Pixels just aren’t very good. They lack basic hardware prerequisites like an sd card slot and audio jack (which the Brax3 would have).

Show me a decent phone with SD card slot, replacable battery and a headphone jack I can install Graphene on and I’m set!

One of the reasons I was excited for the Brax3 was the headphone jack. Pixels don’t have them anymore

Thanks, that’s helpful

You can already block all js and give specific allowances through uBO. Having both uBO and NoScript is redundant, just FYI

I’m all for it but it’s in the cowdfunding stage. We’ll have to see what becomes of it.

I’m pretty happy with them. Pricing is fair and their mission seems trustworthy. They have a decent cli client that I use to automate my backups with.

Zufällig wollte ich letztes WE mir Tickets kaufen. Hab wehmütig ein Account gemacht damit ich was überweisen kann, da ich weder PayPal noch Kreditkarte besitze. Hab schon gestaunt, dass ich nur die Option mit dem Bankeinzug hab. Kann man aber gleich danach wieder kündigen also seis drum. Aber dass danach ohne vorige Ankündigung plötzlich igrendwelche Personenauthentifizierungsverfahren gestartet werden hat mir dann entgültig den Rest gegeben. Nein danke DB. Dann wirds halt doch der PKW.

I played years ago but lost interest after I reached BR 100 on my NC char

“I don’t think there is any European country that would arrest Netanyahu,”

Anyone not complying with the ICC arrest warrant not only deletigimitizes the ICC, but also makes themselves complicit in a genocide. This is literally criminal.

Why should I follow any laws anymore if my leadership takes a massive dump on the most important ones?

I agree with your point but you mentioned the services that are literally the hardest to find alternatives for. Need to use photoshop professionally, good luck getting around adobe. Sys admin only allows microsoft because he doesn’t want to manage a bazillion different setups, get used to windows buddy. I could go on with examples…

Getting rid of those predatory megacorps is worth the fight, but it’s a fight. And it’s not getting easier just by calling it easy.

Well, it’s not like email is a particularly private protocol to begin with. Proton has PGP encryption under the hood for proton to proton communication. But proton to whatever is not more private than using your hosters mail service.
