  • How many users are using browsers that are old enough they don't even support JS? It's one thing to disable it for security/privacy (which the OP was talking about), because those users are probably more tech savy.

  • Do these old browsers not support DuckDuckGo?

  • I tried self hosting Pixelfed but gave up because it wouldn't work. I'm used to Docker containers that are able to just start up by themselves, but the guide didn't work for me. Maybe it's time to try again.

  • Ah yes let's fire the people that can fix the problem

  • I've been using and recommending Unifi Protect for friends. It's self-hosted and your video data is saved locally. The cameras require the Unifi Protect NVR or Cloud Key. For friends that are not overly technical, I've found it's quite easy for them to understand and use, while avoiding subscriptions.

  • One place it would be useful is if you are worried about somebody breaking into your home and stealing your computer. Don't store the key on the home computer, instead store it on a cloud server. The home computer connects to the cloud server, authenticates itself with some secret, then if the cloud server authorizes, it can return the decryption key.

    Then if your computer gets stolen or seized, it'll connect via a different IP and the cloud server can deny access or even wipe the encryption key.

    this doesn't protect against all risks, but it has its uses.

  • Unfortunately, unscrupulous companies can build shadow profiles that bypass cookie and storage based isolation techniques like this.

    Your browser gives off a lot of information. See here for some of the information they can use: https://amiunique.org/

    You're best off blocking things with uBlock Origin vs something that just isolates.

  • This is a good idea. It's a lot easier to incentivize a maintainer who is already familiar with a project and invested in it with some money than it is to get a person who is unfamiliar with a project.

    How much you should donate and how likely they are to agree depends on how complex your request is, whether they feel it fits in with the project for other people, and how busy they are.

  • No, the cable isn't going to implement the protocol. You need endpoints that are able to talk that protocol. That might be done with a firmware update or require new hardware.

  • I just saw this one mention endurain, a fitness tracker. I've been looking for something to self host data about my health, fitness, etc. Has anyone tried this or anything else in the self-hosted or open source fitness space?

  • Those countries are Belarus, Bolivia, Indonesia, Kazakhstan, Cuba, Malaysia, Thailand, Uganda, and Uzbekistan.

  • Monthly active users. A metric to show the number of users who are considered active at least once per month.

  • True, but even if there's only one supplier, there's still demand-side elasticity of price, which means that price increasing causes some customers to not buy the product. Thus, a company may or may not be able to increase a price 1:1 with the tarriff.

    All this is fun economic theory, but I was specifically responding to the claim that tax incentives were better than a tarriff. They both translate into some increase in cost of the goods sold.

  • Batteries are bounded by more predictable chemistry more so than something like the breakdown of a mechanical based trigger waiting for rust or decomposition. Chemistry makes it easier to model and predict. If you've got a 1Ah battery and it consumes x watt hours per hour, then it takes y days to burn through. Tolerances that cause the battery to have slightly more or less capacity or component power consumption will likely be <5%, thus not radically different because nobody is timing this to the minute.

  • If it becomes more expensive to buy products manufactured in certain countries then customers would naturally change their buying habits to other companies. The price to the customer ultimately acts as an incentive to companies.

  • These pictures remind me of YouTube thumbnails with fhe style of over emphasized visuals and it makes me wonder if people got accustomed to that style and that makes it easier to pass the BS test.

  • Just think of all the countries and companies that grab this data, group by email address, then start to identify preferences of people around the world. Its not just for identity theft. The possibilities are endless! And horrifying.

  • Yeah there's a few reasons why the offer that wins the buy box (the term for which merchants offer is shown to the customer prominently) and is complex, but I wouldn't consider it particularly sinister or designed to mislead. If one person has prime and the other doesn't, it might weight more towards a prime offer which may be more expensive, a price from a merchant may have changed, or gone out of stock.
