I can’t find anything about it either. You might want to try to get in touch with the server operator to ask about it

I don’t, but I assume closed source components and/or human error will leak all my messages

Can you find that server again?

My only guess for what it might have been running would be Mineclonia, but I’m not sure. That’s more of a modern Minecraft clone I think

Nostr has a fair amount of active keys discussing Monero daily, but it’s not lemmy or exactly board forum style

See previous reply

Weak gaslighting attempt. Trying to gaslight me would generally be sad anywhere, but when you do it here instead of nostr, it’s a total waste of time that could have been spent trying to actually seem sincere enough to have more potential impact

GrapheneOS probably a big step for reducing the number of people with access, I think

Moving away from WhatsApp might reduce how many people can access your messages, but you can still assume your messages will be scanned and indexed no matter what app you use

See previous reply

Seems like you’re trying to passive aggressively bait me into a fair response on a platform with rules like “respectful communication” that are often doublespeak - red flags for a possibility that the person reacting fairly will be banned, while the person being passive aggressive is rewarded with herd mentality upvotes and dopamine.

Try this response on nostr, where I can’t be banned for responding, if you want to make it look more possible that you may have been replying in good faith and not just to waste my time / attempt to cyberbully me.

I don’t quite get what you’re asking. You can use any chat app that works, just don’t expect privacy with current tech unless you’re a pair of trustworthy cryptography experts using secure devices at both ends. Near future tech should make it more possible for regular everyday tech users to achieve what an expert could do today

Not that I know of.

An easier build would be using a pre-approved list of sites known to not be ad-driven. Like, right now if you limited your search to piefed or nostr then that might avoid ads, but instead of doing it one at a time, it would be good to have a way to search a list of known sources like that all at once. This would be limited to the manually added search sources, but it’s really hard to program a system to automatically find all the ad-free sources out there

They mention they’re concerned about not having GitHub’s fundraising help, but I didn’t see a wallet address to donate to them at.

There’s a dev working on a project I proposed for a Radicle fork with good support for wallet addresses, to replace GitHub while offering better fundraising potential: Project Zymogen

That all makes perfect sense, but is hilarious when you consider the Pixel’s backdoors aren’t a secret. The whole “risk of revealing” thing is just funny because these devices openly have closed source shit in them, it’s not like they’re somehow hiding insidiously subtle exploits within seemingly secure code or something.

French police are embarrassing themselves asking for new backdoors instead of access to existing ones, like it’s not public info that there’s closed source shit in a Pixel. Random people in the general public embarrass themselves by taking this to mean the closed source shit in a Pixel is magically secure (“otherwise why would the French police be frustrated”). French police probably know more than they’re pretending to know, but just willingly embarrass themselves to “keep it secret” even though it’s, again, not secret. Or maybe they’re just detectives who can’t find public info about closed source blobs? More “detectivey” with face to face stuff, not so clever at understanding wiki pages? It’s all very silly

Less than a thousand when I considered it in the past couple years, but not worth it for me due to overrated data durability. Found we need home vinyl record etching machines if we want something as good at shelf stability as these tapes are sometimes proclaimed to be.

Not bad for pure storage density though

No, not sure they exist

Kinda funny when this runs on Google Pixels full of hardware backdoors to begin with.

Will Google not share their backdoors with the French or is there a more purely storytelling reason for these headlines?

The congestion pricing impact is unbelievable. Last time I was in NYC, it was easy to find parking everywhere in Manhattan, even free unpaid street parking outside the pricing zones, but impossible to find parking in Queens. That was a mind heck
