Full stack developer and privacy advocate. I like to keep the mentality, if you can program one language well, then you can program in any language!

  • Stop using MySQL in 2026, it is not true open source

  • Oh misread my bad,not much experience with PostgreSQL

  • Stop using MySQL in 2026, it is not true open source

    跳过

  • Yeah,I did a speed test comparison between Oracle MySQL and MariaDB MySQL,MariaDB is about 10 times faster.

    FYI: When Oracle bought MySQL a lot of developers left and created MariaDB, so the brains behind the project moved, and in the meantime Oracle did a great job of fucking things up.

  • How many of you actually do sports betting with FanDuel and DraftKings?

    跳过

  • You're right,gambling is to screw you out of your money.I'd recommend to steer clear of it.

    Also the prediction market stuff,it's the latest new gambling hype thing,since they can use loopholes to bypass gambling laws.

  • You can look into VaultWarden,an open source self-hostable fork of BitWarden.

    https://github.com/dani-garcia/vaultwarden

    There are also free community instances available which you can use, however then you will depend on them for reliable uptime and security.

  • Rule 6?

    跳过

  • I wish more communities implemented this rule.

  • Running Python on Debian - is not so easy?

    跳过

  • You'll run into that on many distros,not only Debian, since most of the distros use a specific python version for OS packages, its recommended to leave the python for your OS unchanged.

    But VirtualBox is not a good idea either.

    Instead use a venv (virtual environment),which is the python way to develop/run under different python versions.

  • France seeks to ban social media for children under 15

    跳过

  • I'm also living in the EU,however I notice a global push to such mass surveillance. The EU has been under attack by Denmark for years now e.g. by pushing through chat control (a government backdoor into encryption).

    However there ain't such thing as a backdoor only for the good guys, this can and will eventually be abused, either by extremist governments, which may not yet be in power, but might come some day, or external countries, hacking into the backdoor.

    Privacy and technology experts have been warning against chat control and age verification for these reasons, however we do feel ignored, since the topics keep on coming back up.

    I kinda doubt that most of the politicians graps these risks though, and kinda find it dissapointing and demotivating that our rights to privacy keep being put under scrutiny again and again.

    However I'll refuse to give up, since maintaining your rights is important, and gaining them back once lost is often very hard / nearly impossible.

    Thank you for being open minded and up for hearing my arguments though! :)

  • France seeks to ban social media for children under 15

    跳过

  • I agree that big tech's social media is like digital heroin, not only bad for kids.

    But it should be up to the parent to protect their kids, you also don't let them walk the park alone, why should you let them browse the web un-supervised.

    There are parental tools to restrict your child's internet access, those should be applied by the parent.

    Not every citizen should be under surveillance by the government under the rouse that they'll protect your kids, which they won't.

    The real goal here is to detect people who go against the government and block them. While kids & criminals slip through the cracks by finding sketchy un-surveilled sites and messaging channels.

    And if you really think your government gives a damn about your kids safety, then I urge you to look in the epstein ph/f-iles

  • France seeks to ban social media for children under 15

    跳过

  • *France seeks to implement mass surveillance online by requesting age verification, but politicians wrap it in "we do it to protect the children" which is bullshit.

    Protect your rights to privacy, stand up against such erosion of your rights.

  • technical debt

    跳过

  • By not accepting your time estimate,requesting your reasoning why it takes that long, you explaining you calculated time in for refactoring, then rejecting your idea and granting you only time to implement the new thing, without granting time for refactoring.

    And dw, my project manager is a pretty chill friend and fellow senior developer, who is reasonable and helps me with calculating in time for refactoring whenever possible/nessecary.

    It's only higher up, CEOs/management, who seek to cut corners, with rocks for brains, who don't see that in the long run such practices are bad for business.

    Which sadly is the case for most IT businesses. But at least in my workplace the project manager is not a rat & on the side of the developers.

  • technical debt

    跳过

  • Just increase your time estimate,calculate in the time needed to refactor,but don't tell them you're gonna refactor.

    Works out most of the time.Only when they ask why the estimate is so long, then you explain your reasoning behind it, and then they might reply with your statement and block your refactoring idea.

    However, getting time to refactor most of the time, is aleady way better then never being allowed to do so.

  • How do I poison my data (read body)

    跳过

  • For M$ no clue, for browsing,AdNauseam comes to mind.

    It's a fork of uBlock Origin,which instead of blocking all the ads,hides all the ads + clicks on them all in the background, which:

    • Costs advertisers a lot of money
    • Poisens your data profile, since they can't make up your actual interests anymore

    It's more protest-ware then privacy-ware though,since you'll be overflooding them with bs data,instead of minimizing the data collected.

  • SchildiChat got Trackers ?

    跳过

  • You can install ClassyShark3xodus,which can de-compile apps and scan them for trackers on the fly to figure it out yourself.

    Do let us know the results :)

  • Is Firefox tolerable to use on a pi 5 or 500+?

    跳过

  • I'd find it odd if a RPi4 can't smoothly run a browser :o

    You can use btop, to monitor if you have a bottleneck on your CPU or RAM, if Swap memory gets used, things will slow down, if your CPU is clocking @ 100%, same thing but not much you can do about that besides perhaps weeding out unnessecary processes that consume a lot, if there are any.

    In case your RAM is @ 100%, you could:

    • Use LibreWolf instead of FireFox,it's an open source privacy focussed fork,which removes some of the FireFox bloaty stuff, which reduces RAM usage.
    • Use uBlock Origin, to block advertisements, which will reduce RAM usage and increase page load speeds
    • Use NoScript, to block JavaScript trackers, to further reduce RAM usage and increase page load speedd, beware, will block all JS by default, so sites will break, but can be manually fixed by re-enabling only the nessecary JS components on a site
    • Switch to DietPi, a very light weight RAM/CPU friendly distro for SBCs like RPis, I've used it only headless (without GUI) but it only used 50Mb of RAM out of the box last time I monitorred it, which is impressively low.

  • Huge Victory: Chat Control no longer forces us to break encryption! But: It now wants age verification. | Tuta

  • Well, it ain't just the EU :/

    Our right to privacy is under attack basically globally (EU, USA, England, Australia, maybe more, but those I'm aware off).

    Being wrapped into bullshit reasons "to protect the children" or "to fight crime", which won't help, since malicious actors and creative kids will find work arounds for such measures.

    The truth is likely more to put a oppressive surveillance police state into place. Where opposition can more easily be tracked down and silenced.

    Now it's more important then ever before to protect your rights to privacy. Since rights are easily eroded by politicians, but very hard to re-gain afterwards.

    E.g. look at Russia, where you accidentally slit your throat while shaving if you try to voice yourself against Putin.

  • Skyblivion dev here! Here to answer any questions you have about the project AMA

    跳过

  • Thank you for your extensive reply :)

    And sorry if question 1 came over a bit rude.I guess I'd be frustrated with Bethesda if they did that after so many years of pouring in my own time/effort, but I think it's commendable that you guys took the communities feedback from it, and kept on working on your own thing.

    Also nice to hear that there is hope for a Skyriel (full Tamriel in Skyrim's engine) in the future! :D

  • Skyblivion dev here! Here to answer any questions you have about the project AMA

    跳过

  • First of all, thank you and your team for the amazing voluntary work you're doing! <3I've got 2 questions for you :)

    1. Hope I don't come over rude with this one, but with the Oblivion Remastered release, what is still the benefit/point of Skyblivion? :o
    2. From the Skyblivion website's FAQ, I've understood that Skyrim won't be accessible in Skyblivion, could you explain why this is the case? I'm interested in understanding the technicalities behind it :) Since with Skywind also being a thing, it would be awesome imo to have a single game with Skyrim + Skyblivion + Skywind in one, perhaps slowly adding more until all of Tamriel is combined in a single massive game. But if that would not be possible, I'd be interested in knowing why :)

  • Most, if not all car companies collect and profile your data, how can I improve my privacy when buying a modern car?

    跳过

  • You should, privacy is a human right which is being stripped away from us.

    You're basically saying I don't really care about my human rights.

    Without privacy, you're one step closer to an authoritan regime, where mass surveillance helps prevent an uprising of the people against it.

    E.g. Russia, where you "accidentally slit your throat while shaving" when you go against Putin.
