As a tech interested kid, thinking about buying 10 btc for 3$/btc just because i liked the idea.

But truth is, i probably would've lost the keys long ago or sold at 200$ or so

Have dropped Joshua as well since he turned more and more annoying trying to capitalize on memes.

And Linus... well i think everyone that follows/ed him knows about the gamers nexus incident which was just the tipping point after, as you said, he got more and more arrogant

Unfortunately that's a lot of Youtuber's. Start out small, do a lot of interesting stuff. Then "go big" with a project

I use my tablet for 2 things"

Consuming media. Not sure what TV you have but mine would be a little unwieldy for taking it on travels.

Taking notes during conferences, meetings, presentations, etc. So much easier if all the notes are digital from the beginning

Google doing the same thing with chrome, sabotaging youtube under Firefox, etc.

i want to see both of them fined heavily and best case forced to split some of their products out to separate companies (not sure how much that helps though)

you know, I'd really love to get a good app that i pay for and that in turn doesn't collect or sell my data and has no ads, but there's so many but's.

  • one time payment is not sustainable for development
  • i can't have a subscription for each and every app
  • with free and fairly decent apps from big Corp like Google photos, most people won't bother

just to say: I'm not sure there is a good solution where everyone wins :/

What benefit do you expect to get from this switch? Just wondering why there are so many Debian over Ubuntu in this thread

And I can use it for hotspot data for no additional cost

From a European perspective (no idea about other places) this sounds so ridiculous. You pay for internet. Why should they be allowed to dictate if you can hotspot it or not

I'm currently struggling to decide between migadu and mxroute. migadu is in Switzerland (EU would be even better though), and mxroute in the US. But migadu is also significantly more expensive than mxroute (e.g. 30Gb 90$ migadu vs 50gb 70$ mxroute )

also I'm not entirely sure what you need the whois privacy for. i just checked my ccTLDs and regular TLDs - mostly on cloudflare for now - and all of them have my data redacted

Plenty of them if you just search. Not sure about maps, but I've read this multiple times about YouTube on FF from reputable sources

I can very much recommend taking a look at the AHA principle. Kent C dodds has a short and good presentation on it. That's what i go by these days

any suggestions for calendar apps that can use system calendars? i have my calendars synced via davx5

sms Integration was the reason i wasn't using it for a long time and then always made sure this was turned off because it was soo confusing for me and everyone i tried to get to signal

i really do want to use it and I'm definitely not questioning it's quality since it's recommended here a lot. my concern/issue is that it's a us company

it was actively prompting to enable the feature during or shortly after setup which could be easily confused for being part of the process and most people i know didn't actively read it, activated it and then where wondering why they get messages from X (sms) suddenly in signal, or assuming people are on signal, because it suggested regular contacts as well (which would be unencrypted sms)

They already have a monopoly. The amount of people using FF is pretty small unfortunately. And there's a bunch of sites that only test in Chrome and sometimes even actively "block" Firefox like here without making an effort to check for capabilities instead of user agent.

Yes, it's not too hard to set up. And after setting up davx5 i think you have to enable access to synced calendars in fossify calendar settings

until you realize, that "second" is also not the base unit. it's not at obvious because it isn't metric, but second is just the second subdivision of an hour (the first being the minute)

i have com domains as well and the whois information is redacted there as well
