it wouldn’t be so hard but it would be a federal felony :3
edit: and if you’re trying to decrypt HTTPS traffic sadly the app probably uses cert pinning and thus decrypting it would be hard to do. if it didn’t use cert pinning that would be funny

oooh i love this! thank you! FOSS cooking is indeed based af


gasp you mean to tell me you DON’T like 20 million videos playing over the top of the recipe that you’re trying to read while trying not to burn dinner? unbelievable.
smh these motherfuckers are so brazen
If you’re doing regular backups, an SSD would be totally fine I think, since it’s getting power reapplied to it regularly. maybe use ZFS or a filesystem that protects against bit rot?
USB 3.0 caps out at 5Gbit per second, which is 1Gbit short of Gen3 SATA. USB 3.1 bumps up to 10Gbit which would mean likely no bandwidth limitation if you were to run a 3.1 capable adapter and machine, or if you were at 3.0, it would be a relatively small loss. Also, anecdotally, I’ve spun up 16 TB Seagate hard disks (spinning rust) with USB to SATA adapters, so I imagine it would work and wouldn’t be as cursed as it looks :3
edit: picture looks like an SSD with a USB port, not a SATA SSD. My above rant applies to SATA SSDs, not USB SSDs like the above.


which is ironic considering Meshtastic is better than this shit tbh. VC just hard forked it and set it down the great path to enshittification


shit is so fucking insane, hard to believe. not gonna help us trans folk with the whole “this is just a mental illness” look either, especially with the “correlation is causation” attitude running so rampant these days.
honestly I get popping off once in a while but the reasoning is poor in this case. they could have done something more actually effective with all those resources and shit, why this?? I mean, I totally get cultism - I spent 16 years in a cult. but ugh what a waste.


can confirm, I’m running GrapheneOS right now with F-Droid and some extra repos as my only app store, it works fine for me. but I don’t use banking apps (web browsers do fine for that), and I’m using a de-Firebase-d version of Signal (Molly F-Droid) so no issues so far with no GMS and no SafetyNet.
edit: I should add that a new GrapheneOS update just released, this is in the release notes:
so it looks like the devs are actively working around this issue and making changes to allow those checks to pass even without the ROM licensing GMS.

Cory absolutely cooks every single time without fail. I’m also a huge fan of how he really doesn’t budge on the point that corps are at fault for the enshitternet - I’ve followed him for years and that has always been his central point, or at least one of them. 10/10 writer and speaker too

doesn’t protect private property though because that money might give poor people strength and power and we can’t have the rubes having that now, can we? :(
perfect desk kitteh form <3


Good. do it. please. AI cannot exist without exploitation and theft, fuck 'em
yep, can confirm. I’ve even had cis and trans women/femmes tell me I look great and even hit on my oblivious ass but I still look away, hide my face/body (hoodies yay) from their view and stuff because I’m worried about this exact thing :') you’re not alone!!


my tiny rural hometown in the middle of fucking nowhere southwest United States got 10Gbps fiber to every home in the town last year, and 1G fiber in 2021 as a result of Biden’s infrastructure bill. that fiber cost $45/month for 1Gbit with no data caps - before that, the best we could get was 50Mbit on rickety wireless service. Genuinely changed my life - being able to homelab (more) reliably got me into networking and pays my bills now. I hate how this new admin is so fucking myopic, or worse, malicious


I’m not going to nitpick you on your politics since that’s not my strong suit. However, as someone who’s worked 4 years in rural networking and infrastructure as everything from tech support and customer service to engineering and field repair:
ISPs will never install 100G+ fiber circuits to cities 100+ miles from their nearest drop on a whim. They absolutely need a market that (1 needs internet and (2 can afford it. otherwise they’re gonna waste money if they can’t recoup the costs. the thing Trump is rolling back is the thing that helps to guarantee* that ISPs won’t kill themselves trying to make infrastructure work.
and yes, of course Spectrum and Comcast could do it and be fine, but because of our dear sweet “free market”, they don’t give a fuck about these small rural places because at their scale (read: monopoly) there’s no reason for them to. This means it’s the little guys - actual small business ISPs, that are gonna be pulling conduit and standing up switching and line cards and distribution backbones and applying for construction permits and FCC licenses for spectrum with the money that comes from programs like these
The little guys can’t do rural builds otherwise because it’s too cost prohibitive without a way for people to pay for the service - too risky.
The big guys won’t because they don’t give a fuck. And if they do complete a build, the service is fucking garbage because they literally leave the infrastructure to rot while saying they’ll be sure to send a tech to look at it, while paying that tech 5 pence and an “atta boy” to fix a rotting mess of cable that should have been decommissioned 20 years ago. edit: semantics


very distinguished!!

good point! an IMSI catcher without MiTM capability would do the trick, you don’t need to decrypt traffic to have the intended effect
