Very nice! Always love seeing opentofu over terraform

They are in large part social clubs for the rich ruling class families to send their kids to in order to gain connections to other rich families. Which explains why they act this way and why the repercussions are so often minimal. There are other types of frats that aren’t exactly like that but this describes the bulk of them

Didn’t their CEO or some similar executive openly praise Trump when he came back into office?

Nerd Reich is so good lmao, I’m stealing that

It’s interesting that fitbit did so poorly. I recently picked one up and it seems to track pretty well when I’m weightlifting. The numbers are close to what I was getting when calculating by hand prior to getting the tracker.

Agreed, and same with scales. I dont trust the number on my bathroom scale 100%, but as long as it reads consistently so I can track patterns that is what matters, even if the number itself isn’t perfectly accurate. Same goes for calorie tracking via a nutrition app. The aggregate of all this information has a nice intersection that I can treat as a generally reliable idea of how I’m doing.

100% agree with you, for who I am and what I do I know that I need a device that is as tamper resistant as possible with the smallest attack surface feasible. That goes for remote execution as much as the evil maid scenario. But this is entirely catered to my threat model and risk tolerance. And sure there is the possibility of the rubber hose cryptanalysis but that doesn’t mean we should give up on securing as much as possible on the device side. It’s the swiss cheese model and we’re plugging a hole at a time lol

I advocate for everybody to use as secure a device as practical, and for these mitigations to be the default, but I’m fundamentally speaking for myself in this thread with my stance on fairphone and /e/OS right now. I want to support repairability and ethical supply chains too without compromising on my more core tech needs

I get the sense this is sarcastic lol. In my opinion though, privacy without security isn’t very useful. Yes I can avoid corporate or government spying when I’m in physical control of a device like this, but what if I get arrested on some false pretenses and they use cellebrite to gain access? Or the same at an airport when traveling? If you’re any form of political dissident, activist, or a member of a marginalized group, being targeted this way is a very real possibility. And as soon as that insecure but “private” device is out of your hands, all that data is free game for the govt.

I want to love this but I can’t compromise my security for this device. If y’all ever add MTE and the other features required by Graphene I’ll be the first in line

I think it’s a pun about “stables”

Im not saying they’re equivalent, just saying why people might call vaxry a nazi. I’m not using that terminology myself, I’d say he’s somebody who is way too cozy with bigots for me to feel comfortable in that community or the things they touch. But i get where people are coming from, whether somebody says that he’s nazi adjacent or whatever they’re generally conveying the same idea in harsher terms. I’m glad they’re cleaning up their act with a CoC though, I really liked the hyprland experience when I used it, and it would be a net benefit for everybody if they made the ecosystem around it welcoming and safe for all stripes of people. But that trust takes time and active showing of good faith to build

Ok so you’re arguing an entirely different point than what this comment chain was about lmao.

Mostly because the dev has fostered a community that is aggressively bigoted and not only refuses to do anything about it but defends it and participates in the hate. Primarily against trans people but they’ve had plenty of other controversies from their discords and forums. More than just “being an asshole”

I use Instagram to keep up with some friends and family on GrapheneOS AMA

Threat modeling and compartmentalization are a thing

Anecdotally I bought a used pixel 9a last year for ~$350, could be regional or due to ongoing inflation though

The core of Docker is called Moby, which is open source on GitHub. So are docker-cli and compose

LLMs already tend to be the average predicted output for a given input; training on LLM data makes this worse and causes them to become less varied, less dynamic, more towards the mean generated by previous models, and more likely to spit out hallucinations

FOSS and copyleft: I want software built for the good of the public, with good intentions. Anything with corporate licensing us off the table, and ideally so are non-copyleft open source programs as corporations will hijack them for their benefit and privatization.

UNIX Like: It is my preferred workflow for development and everyday use. The windows paradigm is messy, convoluted, and inconsistent by comparison.

Fast, free, customizable: all nice to haves connected to the big two above

The system of capitalism is quiet violence every day, a pervasive exploitation of the working class and marginalized social groups. To fight back against it requires violence because this system was created and is enforced by violence. I’ll never hand-wring about somebody suggesting this obvious route of struggle against the systems of oppression, this form of self defense, when we watch social murder and direct violence committed by the capitalist state happen every day; nor should you.
