  • If I keep js disabled and then use extension will it still be a fingerprinting issue?

  • I always wondered . . . is it sort of like driving without a license plate?

  • From the article:

    The inability to video conference reliably [on LibreWolf]

    Could someone elaborate on this? Also

    I like my browsers to remember when I have zoomed in on a tab

    If she means the browser remembering the zoom levels on different pages, this can be done IIRC by disabling resist fingerprinting in about:config and then installing the canvas blocker addon which is not as good as RFP, but for me at least has been a good compromise privacy-wise.

    Out of date info! Have a look at this instead: https://github.com/arkenfox/user.js/issues/1775

  • Me, I'm sticking with LibreWolf. If Mozilla collapses, I hope they can keep on going without them.

  • Any time I go to a business/organization of some sort, I check to see if it's on OSM (thru CoMaps), and if it isn't, then I add it. If the business is there but doesn't have any info attached to it (web page, phone #, hours, etc) I try to add that too. I've also found that for hiking OSM is frequently superior to Google maps. But yes, there are definitely some gaps which can make it frustrating to use sometimes.

  • Do we need another distro for regular people?

  • Right—just what I was about to say.

  • What I do is this: I use Bypass Paywalls Clean, but then I also choose one or two periodicals like our local newspapers to digitally subscribe to. Other times I will give small donations to online publications I regularly read and value.

  • Have you ever read House of the Dead by Dostoevsky? It contains a very interesting section which deals with the flogging of prisoners . . .

  • I actually think this is why a lot of rich people end up in Congress; it's because they want to make even more money! This kind of insider trading should be made very very illegal and punishable by prison.

  • The police unions, especially in NYC, are extremely powerful. I wonder if there's some way ZM can appear to be working with them while reducing their power . . . 🤔

  • Alternative to KDE-Connect?

    Jump

  • I do indeed use apt. I think that all of those are bona fide dependencies! I believe there was also a "recommended" part which listed a few other things that I didn't install. sudo apt autoremove should remove unneeded stuff, I believe, but doing it just now, it didn't find anything.

  • Just saw this, Android 2 Linux Notifications on F-Droid, anyone tried it yet? The question for my purposes, of course, will be whether or not it will show the content of the notifications, which I'll need for 2FA codes. Might just give it a try . . .

    EDIT: Actually, Xwitter's probably so full of crap by now that it's not even worth looking at, but still, if Nitter's back then that's great. 👍
