Now run an emulator within an emulator for extra acceleration.

Yeah, I don’t think it’s completely quiet and it also adds up.
I love the combination of auto stop/start, hybrids and electrics in the city. No idea what the real environmental impact is but the silence at traffic lights is amazing.
Brit here. I think we’re the same? I’ve never gone to a concert by car. It’s usually in a major city and it’s just easier by train. Not cheaper, though.
I’ve had friends tell me they’ve been stuck in car parks for hours while leaving concerts, so people obviously do it. It’s just not a great idea.
I guess it’d be different if we had massive car parks instead of train stations, which is becoming more the case with shopping.
I’ve used it for the exact same purpose, great minds think alike. It’s perfect for that scenario given there’s no internet.
I just don’t use it much otherwise because apps like Signal are far easier to move my friends and family on to and they’re more than good enough. The metadata privacy Tor would provide would give me a lot of peace of mind but I know it’ll never happen.

I was going to say that Cloudflare uses nginx but I found that’s no longer true.
I feel like this is overlooked far too often. I rarely see anyone use data structures outside of (array) list and hash table and any attempt to use something descriptive of the problem is often shot down because of “familiarity,” which is sort of self-fulfilling.
I get away with flagging lists which should be sets, though.
I think you’re asking if it’s possible for your government to be a man-in-the-middle? Depending on which government you live under, the answer is likely no but more importantly the answer will always be; it’s not worth their effort to find out what you’re watching.
YouTube’s public key is signed by a certificate authority whose public key (root) is likely installed on your device from the factory. When you connect to YouTube, they send you a certificate chain which your browser will verify against that known root. In effect, it’s information both you and YouTube already share and can’t be tampered with over the wire.
Technically, those signatures can be forged by a well resourced adversary (i.e. a government) with access to the certificate authority through subversion, coercion, etc. At the same time, it’s probably easier to subvert or coerce you or YouTube to reveal what you watch.
Yeah, it’s pretty understandable to associate telemetry with wrongdoing. There’s been so much of it that it’s easier to switch it off.
There’s a lot of useful, non-personal data they have legitimate reason to collect. Namely, app profiling data for profile-guided optimization which can improve the performance of the browser by analyzing how it runs on actual devices.
Where did you get 100 from? I’m just asking if it’s a real limit or a guess at “some manageable number” under one million.
It can be worth experimenting and tuning this value. You might even find that less than 100 works better.
Nice to know, I was pretty sure my experience was purely anecdotal.
I can anecdotally say that the more right-leaning people I know are the most anti-FOSS but I’m not sure that applies generally.
Even that comes with a caveat: the people I know disagree with it philosophically, i.e. they can’t see how it can work for the maintainer and won’t donate, yet are as happy as anyone to use something for free.
Just wanted to add a bit about Proton since you mentioned it and I use it quite heavily.
Pros:
Cons:
Otherwise these two are largely like-for-like for e-mail. There’s no benefit to Proton being hosted in Switzerland and I didn’t move to be warrant-proof or anything silly. The idea is really just moving emails away from an advertising company and paying for a quality service.
Even some shops working with Windows Server are asking “wait, why are we paying for these licenses?”
Then it comes down to whether it’s cheaper to rewrite legacy applications or continue to pay for licenses.
Yeah and ARM servers are cheap. You can often get twice the processor cores and memory for the same price.
That doesn’t always map to twice the performance, though some benchmarks would suggest it could for certain applications.
Just to throw out another one, there’s also Cloudflare Pages.
Absoutely. I mostly use Firefox because I’m so familiar with it by now but the privacy is generally much better and it doesn’t have a massive monopoly on the web. I’m just a lot more comfortable with it.
When I have to, I use ungoogled-chromium on desktop and Bromite on mobile. I recommend those to anyone familiar with Chrome.
I’ve read not to bother with Decentraleyes. The dependencies are often out of date which mean you’ll hit 3rd party CDNs anyway. Unless its coverage is 100℅, it’s less than useless for privacy as the hit pattern to CDNs might even make you stand out.
Privacy Badger is also redundant if you have uBO.
Sounds like someone has sticky fingers.
Yeah and this still wouldn’t cover something like xz-utils because I would only be aware of end user projects and not the libraries behind them. I’d have to draw up entire dependency graphs.
