crowd sourced traffic info

I did not know that about Magic Earth. I’ll have to test that out on my next trip into the city.

Would you care to expand on this? So far, my fediversal journey has revolved around Lemmy, and I’ve recently been thinking I could probably augment this w/ Mastodon, but what do you mean when you say Mastodon is stripped down?

Mind if I ask which VPN service you use?

Sauce? I tried searching and couldn’t find anything (at least not on the first page of results). Thanks.

Unlikely.

The in-house scanning service at the Internet Archive (IA) differs from the licensing agreements entered into by other libraries. These agreements see libraries license ‘official’ e-book versions from publishers, who charge for every book that’s lent out to patrons.

Short answer: Mobile hot spot (w/ your own cellular device) is preferable to public wifi from a security perspective.

There are other considerations, such as how much cellular data downloads cost to you, what sites you’re visiting, what you’re actually doing, etc. In general, it’s advisable to avoid public wifi if you can, but if you must connect to public wifi, then you should make darn sure you connect to the right network (watch out for imposter networks w/ a legitimate looking name) and use VPN (ideally a paid service) to encrypt your traffic. Even with both of these measures, you’re best off avoiding sensitive activities like online banking on public wifi. If you must do banking or other sensitive stuff, either do it on your phone or wait until you get home.

Hope this helps.

Editing to add: When I initially responded, I’d forgotten which community I was in. In this context, I believe the other responses are better than mine, but I’ll keep mine up in case it helps other readers.

Aren’t we still vulnerable through VMs, though? I seem to remember reading something about why Qubes OS is safer than a regular VM, having to do w/ zero trust, etc.

Sure, but what’s the claim? I don’t understand playlists for FAST services, nor why an evil corporation would care enough to file a DMCA suit, no matter how frivolous. Is it because these playlists somehow magically block the ads? Do they give non-paying customers access to something normally behind a paywall? Like what am I missing here? Something is not adding up.

I don’t use any FAST services. I know what a playlist is in like Winamp and stuff, but why/how could a playlist be considered a DMCA violation for these FAST services? I read the article, but I’m still confused.

On chromecast I’ve been happy with SmartTube, which includes sponsor block and still allows me to log into YT so I get to keep my history.

In Firefox I’ve just discovered an extension called Lib Redirect, which works for YT, Reddit, Twitter, and other sites. Highly recommend.

I wonder how much of it is Disney thinks this might actually work versus the ole delay, delay, delay tactic. Probably a little bit of both.

Leaked how? No good practice allows any way for a password to “leak”.

Suppose a social media website has a data breach.

What rotating passwords does is ensure people who don’t use a password manager either write their password down more and more frequently, or use a weaker password with some simple changing pattern that doesn’t add anything.

Okay, but suppose I use a password manager like Keepass, then does rotating my passwords not make me any safer in the event a social media website’s data is breached and ends up being sold off on the dark web?

What’s the logic behind this statement? I would’ve thought that if a website’s logins and passwords were somehow leaked, the more often I change my password, the less likely it is for the leaked password to still be usable by bad guys based on the shorter time horizon.

Separate but related topic: What controller(s) do you use?

I haven’t dug around too much, but by searching “elite dangerous edmc linux” I found a thread about a year old about a flatpak version of EDMC.

EDIT: Just re-read your post and realized you’re mostly asking about Voice Attack. I’m not sure about that one. Sorry I couldn’t be more helpful. Good luck, Commander! o7

shared node in one of those image generation nets

You mean like AI Horde?

Interesting. I wonder if that’s a bug in the Photon app. I use Voyager on mobile. When I tap to create a new post, there is a toggle for link, image, or text.

I’m guessing it’s because you’d selected Link as the post type instead of Text.

After I installed my new graphics card, I started having audio issues in games, crackling, stuttering, etc. Had been using X without issue prior to the upgrade. Switching to Wayland fixed it. Never figured out why. Was (still am) on Nobara 38 I believe.

Take it out and blow on it.
