  • I'm reading this post as a well-intended PSA for those who might not know that their computers keep logs, and I appreciate the poster for that. But also I got a laugh from it sounding kind of like this:

    If you want to avoid providing incriminating evidence during a possible police interrogation, you must disable your brain's long-term memory functions by lobotomizing yourself

  • Ye Vagabonds are on a US tour right now, and I'm so excited to see them I've been listening to them nonstop. A lovely Irish folk music duo of two brothers.

    My favorite recently:https://youtu.be/3WMBtCOzYks

  • Your email is the root of your digital identity, and pretty much everything in your digital life is tied to it. If your email is provided by Big Email, they own your digital identity and it exists at their whim, with no recourse if it gets taken away, compromised, or abused.

    If you own your domain and pay for mail hosting, you can at least move your email between providers if something goes wrong, and have some recourse with those providers since you're a customer instead of a product.

  • You should only enter a password once to log in, so maybe we just use our machines 1000x more than other people?

  • You're right, thanks!

  • This looks to be running a full virtual machine via the Android Virtualization Framework in the same way as the new "Terminal" app in AOSP, so you have full root control over it.

    Edit: I was wrong about the backend, per below it uses proot instead

  • This is so cool! Thanks for your work uncovering these things, and thanks for posting it.

  • My adhesion was like this until I washed my bed with dish soap, and now I have to chisel my prints off with a hammer because they stick on too well.

  • Podman/docker leave behind old images, image layers, and containers that need to be cleaned up occasionally. podman system prune will do so.

    If 8TB was taken up quickly or unexpectedly, it might be something like a container failing to start and being recreated over and over, leaving each failed container behind as it goes. podman ps --all will list all containers, running or stopped. Before doing the system prune run that and podman image ls --all to see if anything looks amiss.

  • Good opsec, really.

    Edit: also I just realized this is the Privacy community lol

  • Subscribed/Scaled most of the time, which gives me a nice selection of things I'm interested in, with a boost for posts from smaller communities so they don't get drowned out by larger ones.

    All/Hot when I want to check in and see what the rest of the fediverse is up to.

  • Testing

    Jump
  • It's the central meta-community for our instance, which has been having a lot of downtime the last few days. We tend to check in here when it comes back online.

  • I just set up Readeck a few weeks ago, and I've been liking it. Very minimalist, utilitarian. One feature I'd like that isn't included is the ability to add specific labels or collections to the sidebar, but that's my only quibble so far.

    It has an official browser extension for adding urls to it, but if you can't or don't want to use that, it has a nice api. I use the api to add bookmarks from my phone using a termux-url-opener script, which is as easy as the extension - just hit the "share" button and select termux, and it does the rest.

  • Navigating around supporting bad actors in the foss community is probably far easier than in the closed, commercial software space, given that all the code, discussion, and money are out in the open.

    Also I think the proportion of fascists and bad actors in the foss community is probably lower than elsewhere in the first place, given that the community is based on the free and open sharing of work and knowledge.

  • First time I've ever seen this, and I love it.

  • I think my favorite thing in tech is blinkenlights, and my homelab is designed with that in mind. It's pretty, and it's like you can see the bits and bytes flowing around ♥️✨

    I compile the kernel on all of my raspberry pis with LEDS_TRIGGER_ACTIVITY enabled, just so I can turn the power light into a cpu blinkenlight, and set the led triggers to some kind of activity on all my laptop and openwrt leds to turn them into blinkenlights too. Blinkenmaxxing.
