They just got a motivation.

Yes plan law makers needs to have a clue on what they are making laws about. Teenagers looking for porn are going to learn.

Single standard, but multiple implementations.

Classic podcast on why printers are terrible. Planet Money with none other that digital freedom fighter and SciFi author, Cory Doctorow.

This could be great, but “proprietary”. Gates is still the same Gates. If you want to save all the land and CO2 this could, release the IP free to all. Flood the market with cheap indistinguishable synobutter, real butter can’t compete with. Milk, cheese and yogurt next please.

One of the Russian’s proxy groups?

I’ve been on Debian Testing maybe 15 years at this point. It’s great. Though wouldn’t recommend it if you need out of tree drivers or are starting out. If that’s still not close enough to the edge there is always Sid and Franken Debian if you want to mix and match (not recommended, but can be useful).

It’s nice to have your more-up-to-date desktop systems with the same packaging system as your Stable servers.

Edit: and no snaps

Antennapod with gPodderersync & Nextcloud? There are podcast apps for Nextcloud to play in the browser.

I’ve ran LineageOS until two years ago from when it was CyanogenMod on my S3. Been a Debian user a bit longer. ;-)

What it’s got over LineageOS is it sandbox stuff out the box, so you can compromise with Google Maps and things like Bank apps run.

For work, I need a satnav with traffic in it’s route planning. No matter how good Organic Map’s maps are. Also for work, I need a Bank app. I’m not really happy with GrapheneOS, but I don’t have a choice. It’s my least worse option. Unless I keep a GrapheneOS phone for work and maybe try a Mobian phone for home… When it looks day drivable…

Edit: oh and transferring files, Nextcloud or scp in Termux.

They should be being sued for doing anti repair tricks.

The guys exposing the anti repair tricks are the heroes here.

It’s doesn’t fall over, it just slows down. Or appears to much more than OpenVPN. There could be something else going on, but for what ever the problem was, OpenVPN was coping better and just spitting out errors about a possible replay attack and continuing like nothing was wrong. I’ve not looked again as OpenVPN is working fine. For everything else, I’m using WireGuard.

Ah, I see it. Sorry. Corrected.

It’s not really an issue with OpenVPN as it seams to cope. It’s the only time I use OpenVPN instead of WireGuard.

Man in the middle can be part of it. It’s just basically recording and sending stuff back. Generally I use WireGuard, but on unhygienic networks, were OpenVPN is warning about possible replay attacks, WireGuard doesn’t work as well. Could be something else of course, but I’ve got one end. It’s not constant or always.

To be honest, I’ve found WireGuard’s performance is harmed more by replay attacks than OpenVPN. Least that is what I put it down to when I tried them both from a VPN provider that offered both.

Edit: missed the a in replay.

Easy enough to do when it’s mega corps. They don’t really care about anything but money. If everyone had self hosted services with e2e, be far harder. Encryption is everywhere now.

So they will go after the end points. Which again, is a battle they can’t win. All very Cory Doctorow’s “Unauthorized Bread”.

If you care about this stuff:

There will be others too, those are just in my head’s cache.

Some how we need to get governments to listen to us serfs instead mega corps and authoritarian police/spooks.

The world they want is not only terrible for digital and political freedom, but competition, thus functioning markets. It’s terrible for making developers and makers instead of dumb consumers, which in turn, is terrible for technology and progress.

This ends with just another war on encryption.

When encryption is legal, they can’t know what is going on between two points. They going to make is so we can only have encryption to nodes they trust?

It is dangerously technologically illiterate to wage war on encryption.

They get their tech advice for laws from big tech.

It will be faster. It’s also cooler because of the Plan9 history. 😀

VirtioFS. You can share from the host to any number of VMs with that. LibVirtd is good. Even has a nice GUI in virt-manager.

Well, there are some very successful file sharing systems. That horse did bolt with Napster.
