Thank you for the correction. For Matrix encrypted messaging, does it depend on app/'program, or is it dependant on the instance?

XMPP is decentralized but it is not federated.

[–] [email protected] -3 points 1 year ago (6 children)

XMPP is decentralized but XMPP has never been federated. I'm a fan of OMEMO but it's decentralized.

Anybody looking for privacy from a federated service will never find it. It seems SimpleX is implementing more decentralized capabilties and it has superior privacy over anything else.

While Signal is the gold standard, it is not at all the best app or service for privacy.

Can anyone name a federated service that has built-in encrypted messaging enabled for privacy?

Why does the nVidia work well on FreeBSD but not Linux? Are you fully confident that the problem is only nVidia if the driver works fine on FreeBSD?

Navi has a built-in download manager, it is not a standalone download manager. I use Navi as a light web browser for websites in case I never a browser on phone.

I do not compile IceCat, it's available in different repositories.

I am using Graphene abd I disabled Vanadium due to it being Chromium essentially. I use Navi or Download Navi from F-Droid. It does not have as much web functionality as Vanadium, but I don't use phone for websites, I read websites on computer or laptop, but occassionally something might need a browser momentarily so that's what Navi for.

If you want a web browser for privacy, I would suggest use F-Droid and in Settings under Anti-features, turn off every option in there, do a search for browser and see what you think of the options. It's either cheap development or old. A mobile web browser that protects privacy doesn't seem to exist with the capabilitied of a Firefox.

I'm a strong believer that there is no such thing as a privacy respecting browser that is closed source. For that reason, I use IceCat on computer.

I'm planning to watch it and ask a question.

Thousands of port workers, including scores of Hell Angels, their associates, gangsters, and other criminals across British Columbia, are set to resume strike activity after failing to ratify a tentative deal that was reached through federal mediation. https://tnc.news/2023/07/19/bonokoski-hells-angels-control-of-bc-ports/

 

For someone wanting the best raytracing performance and AV1 encoding, isn't the 40 series the only to choose?

People that don't care about raytracing, it would not apply to them, but for AV1 recording and raytracing, what other choice is there?

Friendship kiss (latte.isnot.coffee)
 

For a city that is all about showing public acceptance of gays and trans, why do the men seem so uptight as a matter of respect and greeting, for a man to kiss another man's face, on the cheek of course?

Explain how people are all for 2 men frnech kissing, but a friendship kiss is too sexual, there seems to be a contradiction.

Are men not comfortable showing a bond with other men but let's love the gays? I grew up with a kiss on the forehead or cheek is strictly general affection to show a sentimental care for the person.

Strong Men (latte.isnot.coffee)
 

Is there people on here who are old enough to remember when a man could take a punch and would physically defend other people's safety?

How did it get replaced by people complaining on the internet about a website hurt their feelings?

 

From Theo de Raadt of OpenBSD

Over the last 6 months we've worked on adding arm64 BTI & Intel IBT support in the kernels and all userland binaries. We have been fixing all the applications along the way. Many developers were involved. There is an innovative and substantial difference in our approach compared to how Linux is doing it:

  • On OpenBSD, IBT/BTI enforcement is on by default (meaning mandatory), unless a binary is linked to request opt-out (using -Wl,-z,nobtcfi). After all our fixes, very few application binaries need that, and that count is expected to shrink quickly as we (or upstreams) fix the outstanding issues.
  • On Linux they are rehashing the same design as their executable-stack mechanism: if a single .o file in a resulting binary isn't marked as IBT/BTI enforcement, the system will (silently) execute the program without enforcement and noone knows this is happening. So for an issue from around 2001, today Linux binaries with executable stack exist and work unsafely. I expect that 20 years from now Linux binaries without IBT/BTI enforcement will also exist and work unsafely..

Men are cowards (latte.isnot.coffee)
 

The fact that men on the internet are fine with mocking, insulting, and ridiculing others online, but when those same men are out in public areas they clearly are not comfortable talking with strangers face to face and try to get away if someone shows a slightly aggressive behaviour proves why men are losers.

Do men feel good about being a punk, a coward, and a softie? Is that why there's more men claiming to be a woman, because it's easier for weak soft men to bend over and take it comapred to determined successful men who don't accept defeat and fight for their accomplishments to achieve their goals?

It seems a lot of men are fine dying as a coward that people laugh at than die a hero that people mention with respect and publicly honour.

If system security is the most important criteria above everything else, switch to using BSD.

 

I only play single player campaings exclusively, I only buy games based on the campaign, I never play multiplayer, not one.

Does high framerate really make for better gameplay in a campaign? Is 120fps noticable over 60?

I play on 60Hz now at ultra. Is 120fps Cyberpunk really a better experience than 60fps Cyberpunk?

 

An interesting comparison and discussion https://yewtu.be/watch?v=f2e4FNMzyto

 

Have people noticed how much popretary java code ProtonMail requires when using a web browser for email?

Also, why the required login on their free VPN service if they are all about privacy and encryption? Why do they want someone's network traffic in order to use their free VPN?

Over the past 6 months my suspicion grows bigger and bigger of who is behind Proton, the agenda behind starting the service, and how it caught on? Why don't free encrypted anti-government services catch on?

Until ProtonVPN removes login requirement and release VPN server code under open source license like RiseupVPN or CalyxVPN which are anonymous VPN's, no account, I will choose to treat Proton like a spy agency.

 

I try doing a search for !pcgaming[@lemmy.ca but says not found. The website for https://lemmy.ca/c/pcgaming is up and running but I can't find the community. Is there something I'm overlooking or not considering?

I am a member of 2 other lemmy.ca communities.

Is there nothing in settings to the default feed when ooening the app? I only want to see subsscribed communities starting with newest.
