Javascript is overrated and more websites should be static with minimal interactive bs. But that’s just me, a cynical user tired of intrusive pop-ups and predatory advertising scripts.

Even if you got them using PGP somehow, there’s always a risk. Apps designed to upload screenshots, share contacts or simple human errors like “hey did you hear X saying Y”, etc.

It’s still important for video game preservation, no matter how crappy the games themselves might be.

Hah, bold of you to assume my local public transport actually has a schedule.

Knowing Google, they will probably kill it after months of neglect.

There’s an ISP level filter against pornography and North Korea related materials, but VPN uses are tolerated in South Korea as far as I’m concerned.

No South Korea nodes in Mullvad’s server list. Perhaps other providers do? I don’t think SK is a popular destination for exit nodes since it has a strong censorship against pornography among others.

I have been doing precisely that. You have your personal number and the secondary number that doesn’t have to be attached to your name if you want. Ofc law enforcement and telecom companies will be able to trace you based on cell tower locations and phone model.

Pro: An extra disposable number to give out whenever people ask you for “we need your phone number for ShittyDiscount”. Whenever the spam calls get annoying I simply pop it out and place another prepaid sim.

Con: Phones with dual sim support can be rarer to find and be more expensive depending on your country.

I make 1 single partition for the entire drive and encrypt it with veracrypt. Veracrypt has portable executables for windows and if I lose the flash drive in the worst case people will think it’s a corrupted disk (unrecognized partition) and reformat them probably.

Happy to be corrected. But I still wish they were used prominently as it used to be before.

They’ll be fine. Remember when we all joked about Covid-19 Omega variant a few years ago?

The consensus a few years ago in /r/privacy was that it’s too expensive and risky for smartphones to transmit audio data to their HQ, bandwidth constraints, processing power and capabilities considered.

Now… with higher specs and advances and optimizations in AI for audio transcription, would it be feasible to do all that spying but locally on the device itself? The device would transmit ‘daily reports’ after processing.

More fox the merrier. We have Icecat, Iceweasel, Palemoon, Librewolf, Tor Browser, Mullvad Browser… I’m sure I’m missing many more for desktop.

It made me wince when Android did away with its dessert based codenames and now they’re just ‘Android 12’ etc. It really went corporate after that direction.

And please tell me RebeccaBlackOS shows a cool popup or console message every Friday.

I have a morbid curiosity to see that happen.

That’s when they “graciously” offer to whitelist “approved” devices to boot windows VM from.

I put on my trenchcoat and fedora hat.

Please indicate where IE touched you.

My country’s second hand market sucks donkey balls. Import fees are crazy if you even dare to use Amazon instead of cheap Chinese shop. I just wanna scream.
