Moral of the story: don't read the Daily Heil. On top of mining your data like there's no tomorrow, it's a racist, homophobic, transphobic, fascist, pseudoscientific crock of absolute shit.

I [18NB] am starting uni in Edinburgh, Scotland tomorrow. Since I'll be living a good distance away from home, I was thinking of buying some pride merch and stuff.

However, it has crossed my mind that safety could be an issue. I wouldn't have thought that Edinburgh would have issues, but I think it's best to ask Lemmy: On the whole, is Edinburgh a safe place to be myself?

Don't let the title fool you! This is not anti-FOSS!

That's far too good for AI. It has to be photoshopped.

You were, but it appears OP is running Windows in a VM on Linux.

Guess it's time to either get a new pendrive, or enter the void.

  • OpenRC just feels nice
  • Runit is simple
  • S6 is really fucking fast
  • Some distros (e.g. Guix, Void, Gentoo) come with non-systemd init systems by default, but I use them for other reasons

As for why I sometimes use musl, I like BSD. Also, Alpine Linux uses it by default, and most glibc software I've tried works just fine with gcompat.

To be frank:

  • Good idea in theory
  • Ancaps and cryptobros ruined it for the rest of us
  • Monero is okay

I do, for three reasons:

  1. Hackers. It's unlikely that anyone would hack my webcam, but there's always a chance. Maybe I'm paranoid, idk.
  2. Hardware exploits. Three of my laptops are too old for me to update the firmware with fwupd, so I cover the webcams in case there's some critical hardware-level vulnerability which could be exploited; or in case one of the three-letter agencies are in there.
  3. Consequences. Despite the incredibly low chances of anything happening whatsoever, the possible consequences are too bad for me to want to risk it.

I'm paranoid, aren't I...

Some people will find this useful. Yes, we should really just abandon Twitter in all its forms, but there are legitimate reasons to view its content; and if there's a way of doing so without compromising our privacy, surely that's a good thing?
