Proton Mail Discloses User Data Leading to Arrest in Spain
  • Way way better than gmail IMO. One simple reason is if you have something wrong with your account you can get in contact with a real human. And still better data protection than anything in the US. I'm not a journalist or freedom fighter so for my use case it's ideal.

  • Discord starts down the dangerous road of ads this week
  • No doubt it does. especially damning if you look into the history of the founder. Discord's data is worth too much not to be used. They even have it on the ToS that they can transcribe voice calls.

  • Discord starts down the dangerous road of ads this week
  • That doesn't help much. Maybe if your friend group is around 40+ years old, and has been on the net since the 90s. But it's not a comparable product. Matrix with element is the closest foss alternative, but even then it has clunky ux, and spaces are a subpar replacement to discord servers.

    I wish that wasn't the case but it is. The world needs a foss discord/slack option with an open protocol like matrix. If anyone knows of any projects in progress please let me know!

  • Open source in books at school in India
  • Take 2 people that have not used gimp or krita. Ask them to daw a circle, and see which software they are able to do it in.

    Gimp is a ux nightmare (or at least it used to be i haven't used ot in years) I will try gimp 3 when it comes out in 2037

    Homelessness
  • The message is that it's not only the unwashed pan handlers that are homeless. There are a lot of people that are or have been productive members of society that still become homeless. In the US a lot of the obvious homeless have major mental health conditions so many just assume that's the main issue behind the majority of homless. When in reality it's low wages that don't keep up with inflation let alone inceases in cost of living

    Homelessness
  • I was homeless in 2012 for about half a year. It was quite the eye openening experience. Most of us hid that we were homeless the best we could so the cops wouldn't falsely arrest us for being "drunk in public". Lot's of people had cars but couldn't afford gas. Roughly 80% of us never pan handled, and were as clean as we could be. I learned to sleep in the park during the day and keep moving at night.

  • Libation: Download DRM Free copies of those audiobooks you've paid for on Audible.
  • Oh yeah, it'll work fine on any truenas/unraid/synology system it works on about anything with docker/linux there's even a beta for windows.

    My only complaint is a lack of URLbase so setting up a reverse proxy on some setups does not work well.

  • Libation: Download DRM Free copies of those audiobooks you've paid for on Audible.
  • I doubt they really care, there's still a way (to my knowledge) to download audiobooks from audible to mp3. You have to dig a bit to find the option from what i remember. This just makes it easier and in chapterized .m4b goodness.

    If anyone is into selfhosting things I recommend audiobookshelf if you want to self host and stream audiobooks. Such a cool project!

  • All drugs should be completely legalized globally.
  • Meh, having everything instantly legal would be too much especially without the funding for care centers where addicts can get help. As well as preventative systems for addicts.

    Decriminalization is a step better but it doesn't solve the problems of dealers lacing fentanyl into things people dont expect.

    That said, it's absurd to not already have things like psychedelics/weed/kratom decriminalization and small amounts of party drugs. The fact that the punishment for doing drugs far more harmful than the dugs themselves is mind boggling.
