  • Reddit Shady Shadowbans

    Jump

  • A shadow ban is not a normal ban. It's used when the moderators think that your reaction to the ban would be a major issue, they shadow ban you. Given that you tried to ban-evade, they were probably right about it.

  • Probably a dumb question, but: do I need to do anything to my media drive when swapping from Windows?

    Jump

  • Linux supports NTFS, but NTFS doesn't support Linux's permission system. This is fine as long as you don't need Linux to recognize a file as executable while it's on there.

  • Copy RSS Button (Extension)

    Jump

  • I use RSSPreview for this. If a feed is available and you click its icon, it gives you a menu where you can select a feed to visit. RSSPreview basically changes how feeds are displayed inside Firefox.

  • Firefox tab groups just got an upgrade, thanks to your feedback | The Mozilla Blog

    Jump

  • Tab groups have become one of Firefox’s most loved ways to stay organized — over 18 million people have used the feature since it launched earlier this year. Since then, we’ve been listening closely to feedback from the Mozilla Connect community to make this long-awaited feature even more helpful.

  • The "Nothing to hide" argument is (still) a logical fallacy

    Jump

  • See this discussion post. Is this my oppinion? No, but it's probably the reason why. Consider making your point where Wikipedia editors will actually read it.

  • The road to Vibrant Visuals on Java

    Jump

  • It'll be in Vanilla. And Vanilla might become slightly more performant.

  • Trump could offer refugee status to Europeans who oppose migration

    Jump

  • Deal 🤝

  • xkcd #3156: Planetary Rings

    Jump

  • I'd appreciate if I could use your website without advertisement cookies. Would you mind complying with EU cookie law?

  • After a year away from Reddit, curiosity got the better of me

    Jump

  • I always knew Reddit mods have power trips from time to time.

    But is that a site-wide-ban? Really?

  • Games with Text-based Interaction?

    Jump

  • Collossal Cave Adventure is a text-only adventure game. It uses the most primitive technologies in the most primitive ways (as it's old, but it's free and even has a web version as it's old).

  • Removed

    If it ask for your phone number its not private.

    Jump

  • Signal's server is open-source. Of course, they could do something else in secret, but the openness of the client (here's the client) is enough to verify that E2EE exists.

    Your phone number alone just doesn't give any real insight: you can derive that the person behind it prefers to communicate in private and that they're probably alive, but that's about it. Also, I don't think Signal can get your name without a government to look it up. That does happen sometimes, it's just that nothing importmant ever comes out of it.

    If it ask for your phone number its not private.

    Jump

  • Signal is free and open-source. It cannot be denied that basically everything, including minor details like usernames, is end-to-end encrypted and kept secure. The Signal protocol has been proven to be secure by many independent experts and thus it is mathematically impossible for Signal to gain access to your sensitive information (except for your phone number, obviously).

    A phone number alone just won't do much.

  • custom rom?

    Jump

  • My manufacturer ended support but my device was still working well.

  • Why?

    Jump

  • All I want to do is fly transport helicopters around in an online multiplayer scenario like I do in BF 2042 on winblows.

    Jump

  • Wait, it can do that? Despite the kernel level anticheat?

  • All I want to do is fly transport helicopters around in an online multiplayer scenario like I do in BF 2042 on winblows.

    Jump

  • If all you want to do is fly a helicopter, try Flightgear. It's probably nothing like BF 2042 though. FlightGear is a flight simulator with focus on realism (physics wise) while Battlefield probably oversimplifies this by a lot.

  • The power of Linux

    Jump

  • Yup. You'll need to tkinker with Linux too if you want disk encryption. At the very least, set a BIOS password.

  • I never had problems with permission again after I know the real power of sudo

    Jump

  • Add admin:// in Dolphin (so /etc/sudoers.conf.d/ turns into admin:///etc/sudoers.conf.d/)

  • We actually dont use chrome

    Jump

  • Reminder that Edge for Linux exists.

  • Freedom

    Jump

  • Did you actually run it?

    In this case, I hope you had a backup. Boot a live system to see if there's anything left. Back that up, then reinstall.
