Seems unlikely given that ascetic hermits around the world are known for living to a ripe old age.

I don’t mind Ubuntu server, though you’re right you need to clean it up a bit by uninstalling snap and killing the login ad of managed k8s, the LTS versions have been quite consistently easy to deal with and stable, but then again so has Debian.

I’m also the signal guy amongst my friends and family. There are dozens of us!

I think a possibility is a series of open source anvil or nixos scripts that you can run on most hardware with minimal changes, in an extendable architecture of some kind to add or remove functionality and they perhaps get maintained by the community or some structure of the kind of Linux distributions.

This could enable people with minimal skills set up and maintain a reasonably useful but secure environment just by changing a few variables.

You didn’t read the link then.

Not sure how international institutions can make it clearer.

Of course they’re committing genocide.

What if telegram refuses to cooperate with law enforcement in a timely fashion to provide details of the people sharing that material? What should law enforcement do then?

Try CloudFlare Turnstile - a lot cleaner than recaptcha.

The US passport will continue to work, the question is if you’d become a target because of it.

Remember during the first Trump term all these stories of Americans in Europe pretending to be Canadians? You would want to distance yourself as far as possible from the idiot gang.

I usually phrase it as “it’s one more app on your phone and it doesn’t ask you for anything, it’s really not that big of an ask”.

Wait, so the family chose to keep two people out of the loop until they caved and bought new hardware instead of adding one more app that would be common for everyone and give everyone the option to use whatever hardware they wanted?

No probably about it.

Mechanical watches lose 10-15 secs per day which declines as they get older or aren’t serviced, a $40 Casio might miss 30 secs per month, never needs servicing other than a battery change.

Mechanical watches are no longer utility items, they are fashion items that happen to tell time.

If Wikipedia is accurate the previous school shooting in Finland was 12 years ago - it doesn’t seem like an epidemic.

Meanwhile in the US, there are between 1-4 school shootings per month that result in injuries or deaths. I don’t think I’ve heard the 2 or 3 for March on the news.

From someone with a passing interest, Krita seems on a similar trajectory to Blender - gathering momentum and going from strength to strength, whereas Gimp seems rather stuck.

Ideally you need a double-blind checking mechanism definitionally impervious to social engineering.

That may be possible in larger projects but I doubt you can do much in where you have very few maintainers.

I bet the lesson here for future attackers is: do not affect start-up time.

From what I read it was this observation that led him to investigate the cause. But this is the first time I read that he’s employed by Microsoft.

A few years ago I would have said the courts would impose sanity over these extremes but that no longer applies.

It’s art (that makes you horny)

I don’t see an upside for Putin in this. Given how many years he’s been in power anything bad that happens falls on him for failing to prevent it, there’s hardly anyone else left to blame. He’ll probably fire a few people to look as if he’s doing something.

No worries.
