Passengers (2016) is a shit film with an excellent premise but I never think about it, in fact it reminds me of its opposite, a superb film with a ridiculous premise called Sunshine (2007)
What did this friend say, I cant read a salacious lemmy post without precious details
There’s bound to be numerous Rand critiques written throughout the 20th c. just do a web search. Otherwise The School of Life on YT does good philosophy primers. Don’t forget Diogenes the cynic either
Conflict? A good image is a good image regardless of its provenance. And yes 2020s era 4chan was pretty much glowboy central, one look at the top posts by country of origin said as much. It arguably wasn’t worth bothering with since 2015
None of that counts for anything unless the technologies can be independently developed and controlled by individuals and networks of people
let commercial implementation and intent be as opaque as it wants provided people aren’t required to interact with it
it’s the anonymity that empowers people to say the absolute worst things.
humans behave badly when they perceive they have social license to do so. anonymity has little to do with it
your second paragraph makes you sound like Larry Ellison. all you’re arguing for is the extension of the capacity of corporations to constrain and coerce invidiual behaviour, which is gross
I’ve been doing what’s in the guide for several years but its good to see a well structured and well presented resource like this anyway.
Theyve convinced normie that his valuable resources are valueless, and absent a better role model that won’t change (he’s not the type who thinks from first principles)
IF YOU DIDN’T PHONE HOME I WOULDN’T NEED A PRIVACY POLICY

But it is secure. Secure against you the genpop end user from being able to keep secrets or pursue interests that may not align with the government’s interests
Look at salt typhoon. The fact that 3P actors can use the exploit/bdoor too only matters to Gov to the extent that those actors can threaten its own interests by using it. Aka fuck the end user
Turning the clear web into a wasteland of corp/gov service portals one investigation at a time
that’s the point, to secure itself against $enemy-nation the state will first secure itself against the citizenry, by having a way of compromising citizens security on demand
ultimately governnment only cares that IT can exploit the mechanism, not that other actors cannot do so via the same mechanism
strip away all the obfuscation layers (there are so many lol) and thats pretty much the extent of the thought process of natsec orgs. you’re the threat. its an utterly retarded mind virus thats infected them we can all agree, but from an individual’s standpoint we can only protest and hope to shame the policymakers into a constructive course of action
Skinks are cool but they don’t beat the olm
Rule of Acquisition #3: Never spend more on an acquisition than you have to
wouldn’t profilers simply track via the domain tld instead of the whole address…shopping1 at uniquedomain, bank2 at uniquedomain , etc
and in the case of aliasing, couldnt a domain provider tell where the aliases rout to and sell that info as a side earner?

I use the free tier of a non-M/G email provider, and keep my use of email to a minimum. I would happily pay for it in cash but I haven’t found that provider yet, and Stripe hates prepaid cards. A lot of discretionary shopping is done in cash
Credentials are local and employ entries from a custom dictionary I made with vocab that combines multiple languages with randomized and inconsistently applied letter substitutions, to which a random string is added (it’s probably no more secure than a random string alone but I enjoyed getting some sed XP, sue me)
Certain browsing habits and needs have their own browser profile. I used to attempt user agent obfuscation but further reading suggests spoof attempts are trivial to detect by even crude scripts
The one layer that never gets enough study is hardware and software compartmentalization. The demand for sync everywhere always is itself a threat vector
Media consumption is LAN only sourced from p2p networks 🏴
The DOGE is doing a better job teaching people about the value (and problems) of data custodianship than the EFF at this rate
Yeah I don’t get the hate, people soliciting sexual material that you then provide makes you a prostitute. Nothing wrong with prostitution but if somehow I get on a cam and encourage Bob to come on my command yet still not be considered one, then neither is Remy Lacroix
