I think you mean they shouldn’t write authoritatively about things they don’t understand, because what you said is really gate keepy. There’s nothing wrong with learning.

As said in the post, yes, lol.

Left, but in reality I’m only ever using the search bar. Further, if the OS has a good universal search (like command space on Mac) I might not even be using the search bar in the settings app directly. Search bars in settings are a blessing and I’m so glad they’ve become the norm.

VRBO. Idk if it’s European.

That’s a smellometer!

Damn, if only there was some way to certify that.

Certs are free through Let’s Encrypt (and have been for quite some time now, like a decade). Certs makes people peeking at what you’re doing along the route substantially more difficult.

Idk, the only people I know who pay for YouTube premium are a queer couple.

The ads make you gay

The “fediverse” are distributed online social networks using a thing called activity pub. Because they all speak the same protocol they can interact with each other. This is why Mastodon and Lemmy can talk to each other.

BlueSky uses something called AT. AT proto has three things to it where . The pds (I think it’s called) is where you can choose to store your data. Relays aggregate those. Then you have to have a way to view it. In activity pub the first two layers are the same thing and we typically call them “instances”. Running your own relay for AT is wildly expensive and to my knowledge nobody is doing it because of that. Not enough people use their own pds to store data to even really make it worthwhile. The vast majority of BlueSky users are actually using BlueSky itself. Even if you consider the fediverse to be things doing federation, BlueSky isn’t really as federated as they lead you to believe.

Hi, I’m Nicole, but you can call me the fediverse chick!

It’s so crazy to me that ads pay less and subscriptions cost more.

without controversy

Anno 1800 was an Epic exclusive (and Ubisoft’s Uplay) for a year on release. It was available for pre order on Steam. I believe people that bought it on Steam prior to the one year exclusivity deal still got it. It was a whole thing though. Definitely would call it a controversy.

(I am a different person, not arguing anything about this particular vulnerability or the government’s funding of Tor.)

I think you’re defining backdoor too literally. I get your point, but colloquially it just means to get something nefarious in. If someone is saying “the government has a backdoor in an encryption algorithm” it would mean they believe the government has a vulnerability in that allows them to easily break the encryption, not necessarily a separate “door” or something.

Puppy?

Not a Russian bot. Down voted it because GitHub is still a poor choice to host open source on nowadays. It’s like someone saying “It’s stupid that such and such switched to renewable energy instead of fossil fuels because they believe the world is flat. The world is not flat!” It’s really missing the forest for the trees.

This is misinformation. BlueSky is not a non profit. It is a public benefit company. The shareholders still expect profit.

Exactly, don’t let perfect be the enemy of good. Someone using BlueSky over Twitter is a good thing.
