It’s simply not an oniony article because it is a common fucking lie the republicans say all the time for shock value to demonize furries and trans kids. And on top of that it’s also just not interesting or even funny because it is a real fucking thing people believe is happening. I am sorry that your post got negative comments, but attacking furries in your comment section (who are already being attacked by this lie) is also assholish af imo.

Well, I don’t know anything about hooking it up to a streaming service, but I would personally really suggest the overboard way you mentioned tbh. Just set up qbittorrent with a few choice plugins (I literally just have 1337x and that has not failed me yet) and use that PC you mentioned (HDD size permitting) to run a small media server of whatever you’d like. Sorry if that is really not what you want, I’ve just found it to be the best media setup personally.

It’s really not, until it is. I personally see it as a fallback infrastructure for redundency if Tor, VPNs, Bittorrent, etc. go dark. But other than that, no, it doesn’t really serve much of a purpose rn.

I read the article, and adding it to my watch list was the first thing I did with this information.

Saddest not-the-onion article I have seen here yet tbh. :/

No, I beleive that is just a snowflake proxy, which basically is just used when somebody first connects to the tor network to hook them up to an entrance node. So your computer is not actually acting as a node but rather an intermediary. I would also suggest not using Brave browser because I have heard bad things about it’s owner and just their general policies. Many people say that brave browser is really just privacy cosplay. You can just get a copy of firefox and manually harden it yourself using noscript and a vpn. Or skip that and just use tor browser for all your privacy intensive stuff.

Thanks for the well explained reply. I will probobly go with aliases masking one account then. Seems like the wise choice.

I was trying to make sure that if one got breached for any reason, only some of my non email accounts were compromised. I’m not sure if that’s overkill though.

IP logging? I’m not sure exactly.

My only thought is that you should switch Brave for Ironfox. But other than that it looks good!

For android I use OpenTune from f-droid:

Not sure about a web client though.

Oohhh, does this mean we can stop putting dogs in traumatizing and potentially life threatning situations on the police force?!

Thx, I’ll check it out

I didn’t assume anything, I simply just didn’t even think about power states when using the laptop.

Correct, please send this one to the Emotional Recalibration Camp as soon as possible.

This quote has been yoinked. I need it on a shirt tbh.

You, and only you, may be forgiven. For I am feeling merciful at this time and you asked so nicely bimbimboy.

Yes, that’s why I chose the distro I chose, and why this was not a serious post were I was actually upset, I enjoy learning and reading, I just wanted to make a post about suspend bc it has made me happy. I am also aware the bios battery does nothing once it’s booted, once it’s booted the performance is the same as it has always been. So I assumed the cmos battery is dying, but not dead enough to lose settings yet.

No, it’s not different, I just use Arch and have no power menu anymore, nor did I usually close my laptop lid while I was still planning to use it. I usually just powered it down fully because it used to start very fast, but I think the laptop bios battery is dying or something, because it turns on much slower now than it did before. So finding the actual command that triggers the suspend state was so epic, because I can script and bind it now.

Niri actually ^_^
