  • I'm pretty sure you're stuck with Garmin (or AsteroidOS but this isn't really an option) when it comes to smartwatch on degoogled Android phones.

  • In most Web3 blockchains ZeroKnowledgeProof aren't proof. They often only have the succinctness of the proof and this is enough for the marketing team.

    Also there is many things valuable in modern cryptography thanks to Bitcoin and other chains, blockchain and crypto are buzzwords for sure but that doesn't mean that i's 100% BS.

  • 1 USD is worth 1 USD because you can pay 1 USD of taxes. It is backed by political promises, oil, weapons and war. This can't end well.

    Crypto means cryptography. Cryptocurrencies are a variety of things from stablecoin (digital token backed by fiat money often by a private company ), company shares, community projects, scams, scams, ponzi, scams, cool technical experiments and technically bad experiment. In the other hand there is Bitcoin (and Monero to some extent) that is owned by humanity, no foundation, no company, no state. It is backed by a proof of past energy brining the most innovative security system in the history of IT, not based on restricted access and opacity but by economical incentive to play fair with others in a big game theory peer-to-peer network.

    Bitcoin is not the money of the internet. It's the internet of money.

  • Then what is money? State approved piece of paper backed by oil, weapons, war and slavery?

  • To keep it short there is two big families of wallets. Hot and cold wallet. Hot wallets are the one that got an internet connection wether it's a constant one or periodically connecting. Cold wallets are never connected to the internet and often are dedicated hardware devices with the better ones having a Secure Element to store the private key or even sometimes sign transactions directly in it.

    Victims of this attacks were using hot wallet on a not-dedicated machine which is consider bad practice. Hot wallets have to be consider more like a physical wallets for daily spends and cold wallet being privilege for long-term saving and monthly or yearly transactions.

    I'm not an expert but desktop OS (especially Windows) are not as well contained than phone so I almost never use hot wallet on my computer. Often users are tricked to sign transactions to get stolen but I think if the wallet is unlocked a malware with the right privileges/permissions could easily steals money.

    by reading some file in the computer Aren't Steam games always executable for Windows?

  • We have excellent free and open source alternatives to GitHub that are not run by Microsoft Core AI as a trap/jail for developpers.

  • Oh thanks, I've learned something thanks to you. I knew there was a link between the two but didn't know what.

  • Thanks for sharing theses very important thoughts. I think I agree with the author on this even though I am not a dev but I do some minor contribution from time to time.

  • We had local "AI" features for years, it's just a glorify marketing term nowadays. Sure the advance made in LLM has changed the space but there was "AI" app on F-Droid for years before ChatGPT was public for exemple TIDY. I guess that if it uses an external non-free service it will be flag but if it's 100% local and FOSS why complaining about tech people develop under free licences?

  • Please vote against... please

  • Not a fork but a similar app that is supported is OuterTune

  • LOL, they should patent video games in general to this point.

  • Use DeArrow ;D

  • They don't have a password manager.

    Other FOSS option are KeePass clients with DIY sync (some clients have paid hosting and syncing) and BitWarden.

    You can also use 1Password which have a strong track record of good security and have been audited but is proprietary.

  • Exactly, that's the community fork of SimpleMobileTools. However there is also Goodwy that have forked them in the name of Right Apps. Right Calendar, Right Gallery, Right Messages, Right Files and Right Contacts.
