This depends. A subpoena is only binding if the registrar is in a country that is legally liable. Some privacy focused registrars purposely locate themselves in countries that keep them legally insulated.

The most common way for a an employer to pay in cash is through a check mailed to your address on record. That check can then be cashed either by the bank on the check, which is required to exchange the check for cash or a check cashing business which will take a fee for the service. Both ways will require identification.

The only other legal way is get a job with an employer who is willing to pay in cash, usually at a cashier window. Most common in labor jobs in the mining, manufacturing or agricultural fields, some higher education institutions, and occasionally in construction.

Otherwise you’ll have to go the illegal under the table route. Which is easier to find than you would think, there’s a whole lot of people avoiding wage garnishment and or immigration enforcement.

You computer has a feature for Out of Band management. Either WoL as others have mentioned or vPro(Intel), iLon(HP), iDrac(Dell), as well a few other less popular systems depending on who makes your mainboard or NIC.

This leaves the power on to the network card so that it can be used even with your computer off. It does not have access to your normal computer in the this case. Just the ability to turn on/off the system and sometimes options to update BIOS/UEFI firmware and send a console image to either a client or browser.

The lights are blinking because broadcasts packets from other devices on your LAN are sent to every device. This is normal and expected behavior.

You can also use Gadgetbridge to use some headphones without their companion apps.

This works in Powershell as well, even on Windows…

Micay did not step down nor is it a symbolic gesture. He removed himself, at the demand of others within the organization, from any public relations duties he once held. He is an excellent and talented engineer and an absolutely horrible representative.

He has no people skills. He does continue to contribute and guides the project privately. It should have been done long ago because I think he has done a lot of damage by overreacting and fostering a community of toxicity by being a bad example.

Since his departure it has been improving and GrapheneOS is becoming mature and a far cry from the Copperhead days.

Already some good suggestions here but adding Grist if you want more of a smart spreadsheet solution…

DNS services with blocks lists such as Pi-Hole, AdGuard, NextDNS, etc, provide a centralized config file for all devices on a network, so you only configure once, collect statistics, have built in block lists that can be easily modified and updated either automatically or manually and are fast.

Using large lists in a host file will slow local resolution. It wasn’t designed for this use case as it’s acting a flat file database with a limited amount of RAM allocated for the process and will get slower the longer the list. While this latency won’t be noticeable in the thousands of lines, once you start hitting hundreds of thousand or millions of entries it will start to crawl.

Hosts file are also unable to RegEx or Wildcard entries which means you would have to duplicated lots of variations in domains…

I mean I can also statically assign IPs to ever client and keep a spreadsheet, but why don’t I just use DHCP?

It doesn’t matter if you use a service or not. Someone in your family most likely has DNA on file, either through voluntary submission, like 23andme, or through law enforcement, military government interactions that require submission. Once a family member is on file, it’s easy to ID you. Many crimes have been solved this way. Point being, doesn’t even matter if you try to keep private, if a nation state or three letter agency wants you, you done. If you’re worried about some company having your data just don’t participate in any of them… pretty much all you can do currently.

Backpedaling in 3…2… oh there it is

Yes, Kagi has a bunch of “Lenses” not just for Lemmy & Kbin but for all kinds of sources.

As of right now I’m not sure how you could SEO boost Lemmy. The federation makes it seem like a single post exists on many different sites.

With nearly a thousand Lemmy instances it’s as though someone cross posted to hundreds of websites which there would be no way to prioritize with the way current mainstream search engines work.

They just need to program a method for indexing Lemmy, and the rest of the ActivityPub compatible services, as a single entity. I am sure they will catch up eventually.

I assume you’re phrasing this as a question to challenge what I said regarding main stream search engines.

It is possible to get a random hit on Lemmy, as instances are crawled like any other webpage. Just like you might get a Mastadon hit every once in a while. However they will not rank very high and almost always be buried a few pages in, while a Reddit post will rank much higher for the same search.

It’s the natured of how federation works and search engines don’t account for it. You can increase your chances by including a specific instance name or the word Lemmy.

Kagi is a search engine that has built in Lemmy/Kbin search.

If you’re talking about mainstream search engines then no, they haven’t started supporting Fediverse content yet.
