We’re social creatures. The laugh track makes us feel like we’re in a social situation. I think different shows use this more or less cynically.

I use mailbox.org personally. Disroot is probably fine. Do they have 2FA? That would be the most essential thing you want here if you’re worried about being hacked by an outside party. 2FA would even mitigate a password leak in most cases, since they’d only have 1 of the authentication factors.

If you’re worried about hacking, you can do some things to mitigate the damage that would cause. Download important old emails and delete them from the server, this is pretty easy to do in a desktop client (like thunderbird or outlook) where you’d just move them to a local folder. That way if someone gains access, or they sell to someone that processes the data, they won’t have the old emails (unless they for some reason retained a separate copy, which seems doubtful).

Sign your email up for https://haveibeenpwned.com/. Then you’ll get notifications if there’s any data leaks, including of your email provider. Obviously this is only useful if nobody has stolen your account before the leak is reported, but that’s more likely than not (unless you’re a particularly valuable target for some reason).

A craftsmen wouldn’t be damaging it, they’d be modifying it to make it more useful to you.

You’d like that, wouldn’t you?

Horny jail

One thing I’ve tried to take to heart on lemmy: On reddit I nearly never posted articles. But here, I try to post any article I find interesting. I think with such a small space we’ve gotta be the change we see. Every time you read something worthwhile, try to remember to find somewhere to post it here.

Yea, I couldn’t tell you the specifics. I know new members of group chats don’t see any previous messages. I think it might re-negotiate the keys every time someone is added. It’s probably not meant to scale up to very large groups (tho I’ve never tried), but I’ve noticed no issues in 25ish people chats.

It works about the same as any other app’s group invite link. It can be set to automatically add the person or be treated as a request to join that needs approval.

Thanks for the detailed reply. Signal does have location sharing and invite links, FWIW.

What polish and features is signal missing?

This article is also only applicable to EU, where (as your link mentions) alternative browsers don’t need to be WebKit. Chrome and Firefox are already working on switching.

You need to meet more young people they don’t know either specifically because companies like google and apple try to obscure competition by making their way seem like the only way.

Amateur advice. Don’t own your own device. ask your friends to look up things for you on their devices, then print them out and mail them to your PO Box. Untraceable.

5 euros a month. Worth it, it’s by far the best VPN.

Anyone using a work or school Chromebook is, actually.

It had a leak a few years back. Not a huge one, but it’d add up on devices that had a ton of tabs or were always on.

Discord has real advantages over many of those, and communities are slow to pick up and move. It’ll take either a very bad decision from discord or a good competitor. I want that competitor to be Matrix, but it’s far from perfect.

I’m glad I skipped release day. Definitely waiting to buy it on sale after it’s been fixed with updates and DLC. Sucks to see companies treat buyers like testers.

That’s true, I was simplifying a little bit because it certainly depends on how you lose it. Crash diets are the worst because they can really mess with your organs, but liposuction or more balanced changes can avoid the worst of that.
