oh, I see. well, lessons learned hopefully! :)

not bad faith, but overriding your selected search engine is just plainly very fucked up for firefox to do.

and this it not only on mobile. I had the same experience on desktop some time ago.

what garbage cleanup tool gets rid of dotfiles, especially .git? if you let us know we can learn to avoid it

well, it’s in the settings. “Include anti features” menu.

my 750 ti works. nouveau can’t increase the clock speed to the operating clock on boot, on boot the display on that card shows random data with colorful pixels, and nvtop does not see it either, but it works.

wait, are they really using it?

IT basically constructs several virus exe files during runtime FROM THE BYTECODE SECTION !!

what kind of viruses? what do they do? did you notice anything objectively bad that they do? or something fishy other than creating executables?

These exe files are what does the activation. It also installs backdoors, and potential malware !!

could you provide a little more details on what kind of backdoors does it install? and what malware?

this could be a big deal, but you didn’t provide anything that could be verified.

another person here also highlighted that mullvad can already do btc + monero + traditional money, so I guess maybe it could just work that way.

interesting though, that mullvad had that for many years now, didn’t it? and this podcast is not old. why did Andy say what he said?

tbh I didn’t read the petition page until now because I didn’t expect an official source, but this is going to be interesting

I don’t think it’s that easy. the CEO Andy Yen talked about this briefly in this podcast, it boils down to financial auditors not liking cryptocurrencies. he said even just by accepting bitcoin most of the auditors won’t agree to audit their company, all the while they are legally required to have regular audits

I would say they’re a bot,

not a bad guess probably. just a week or two ago was when I noticed them posting frequently very suddenly, and before that I haven’t seen their name anywhere.

unexpected lesson, but that umask in a subshell is very clever!

then ask a friend or a random person on the street about it. “easy for me” does not mean it is easy for the average person. the average person is lost in the settings of their phone, and they rarely turn on the desktop anymore, if they have one

their point is not the custom domain usage, who cares about that, for that you need a domain to begin with and its not that common to have a personal one. but that you can’t set up automatic forwarding without continuously paying. that makes switching considerably harder for the everyday people.

no it is not easy, but there are many open instances so there’s that

installing it is quite easy, if you have some linux-fu, but if you ask my admin its not easy to maintain.

anyone successfully managed to import chat history from one instance to another? heard it’s possible, don’t know of anyone actually doing it.

what do you consider importing?

you can invite another account of yours into the DM room. then export all encryption keys in your old account, and import them in the new one, and now you should be seeing your old encrypted messages. if the room stopped being treated as a DM room after the invite, you can kick your old account and execute the /converttodm command or something like that in element web.

Recently I learned that it does not work anymore with lemmy.ml, so its probably because of that

why don’t you/they just block meme communities then? downvoting memes because they are memes does not make any sense when they are posted to communities made for that reason

using? having! better uninstall them all, confine them into firefox if you still need them.

don’t forget to get rid of the 3 iconless meta apps either that are installed to lots of phones from the factory:

• Meta App Installer
• Meta App Manager
• Meta Services

you can only see these in the settings, installed apps list, after finding the hidden option to also show system apps.
App Manager or similar tools will also show them.
