To be honest, I’ve found WireGuard’s performance is harmed more by reply attacks than OpenVPN. Least that is what I put it down to when I tried them both from a VPN provider that offered both.

Easy enough to do when it’s mega corps. They don’t really care about anything but money. If everyone had self hosted services with e2e, be far harder. Encryption is everywhere now.

So they will go after the end points. Which again, is a battle they can’t win. All very Cory Doctorow’s “Unauthorized Bread”.

If you care about this stuff:

There will be others too, those are just in my head’s cache.

Some how we need to get governments to listen to us serfs instead mega corps and authoritarian police/spooks.

The world they want is not only terrible for digital and political freedom, but competition, thus functioning markets. It’s terrible for making developers and makers instead of dumb consumers, which in turn, is terrible for technology and progress.

This ends with just another war on encryption.

When encryption is legal, they can’t know what is going on between two points. They going to make is so we can only have encryption to nodes they trust?

It is dangerously technologically illiterate to wage war on encryption.

Couldn’t agree more. Everyone should be hollowing about our voting system as it is at the root of so much of our political problems. That and the 2008 crash and 14 years of bad handling of it.

Shocking and completely unpredictable…

Too many are helplessly dependent on MS, Apple, Google, Facebook, Amazon, etc.

They can’t even imagine freedom from them.

They get their tech advice for laws from big tech.

I honestly don’t understand how people don’t see that. FPTP is so dangerous. We desperately need to change our voting system before we end up with a jackboot Faragist government on like 1/3 of the vote. The majority don’t want that. Which isn’t unusual as our voting system never gives a reflective parliament.

It will be faster. It’s also cooler because of the Plan9 history. 😀

If the golf stream shuts down, it will be coming back hard.

Labour do need to reclaim more of their traditional base because if they don’t, they will not vote Labour. If that’s not Labour, or not vote, is much the same under FPTP in many places. Labour is the only way to keep Tories/Reform out, until we get rid of FPTP. Labour should be putting country before party and getting rid of FPTP, but they certainly won’t this term. If ever.

I want FPTP gone, but until then, all we can do is vote as best we can, in the area we are in, to try and keep the worse out of power. Corybn isn’t helping this, again. He was a perfect Labour leader for the Right to scare their base to rally behind Bonking Borris. Some Cons even joined Lab to vote Corybn for this reason. I know one who did exactly that and he wasn’t alone.

That is why they should pay. They advertised them as flushable and they most certainly are not.

You mean we pay? How about we take water back and make them pay for the clean up?

It’s that their power is feeble. It’s half the voltage of ours. Generally a kettle in the UK is 10 Amps. So at 220-240V that’s 2.2-2.4kW. In the US they are apparently 12A, so at 110-120V that is 1.3-1.4kW. Feeble, so takes ages to boil water.

I fear gen Z brits are just watching so much America YouTube & TikTok they think that’s how to do it. I really hope I’m wrong.

VirtioFS. You can share from the host to any number of VMs with that. LibVirtd is good. Even has a nice GUI in virt-manager.

The Right is split in two. If that, as I expect them to merge by election time.

The left… so many ways. Lab, Lib, Green, SNP, Plaid and now this. And I’m probably missing some.

We a progressive country normally but our voting system and left splitting gives us mostly Tories.

I hadn’t explored block lists on bsky. Just looked, and added a few, though it is seams focused on anti MAGA/fascist/racists stuff. Pressing subscribe to get to block is not initiative.

More vote splitting of the Left. Oh joy. So looking forwards to Farge’s version of ICE thugs…

Can we please please please get rid of FPTP before it ends in tears?

Clearly people want BlueSky for very different users cases than me. TBH, it’s not been an issue for a while now, maybe because I’ve blocked so much of it when I started I guess.

I always had “Show NSFW content” unchecked, so it should never have that shit come up.

To be clearly, I don’t support them doing this. Unchecking “Show NSFW content” should have always worked. If that doesn’t work reliable, why will this identity verification privacy invasion.
