Librewolf on desktop and IronFox on mobile (GrapheneOS) for daily browsing. I also use Tor Browser or Mullvad Browser on desktop for particularly sensitive browsing.

People already do this on “low-tech” levels ie community monitoring and alerts, but yes it’s not been done on particularly high-tech levels in a similar manner to the surveillance state

I don’t have a pressure cooker and cook beans on an electric stove, but I imagine it’s similar

I’m interested to know what power company doesn’t give price for a kWh nor how many kWh you used in a billing period.

Oh I get that too, I just meant that I don’t get a more detailed breakdown, just total kWh usage in a month and price. So I can’t see energy usage by day etc. I’d have to do calculations based on my oven specs and the cost of energy. Which is possible but I’m simply not bothered to do that.

Yeah, that’s a factor that is fairly easy to calculate though. And for myself, I’m happy to spend more time within reason. I cook fairly high-effort meals if I think the effort (and time) will pay off. I was mostly asking about energy costs as that’s something I feel is quite hard to quantify properly. With time you know exactly how long it takes and can ask yourself whether or not it’s worth it for you.

That’s pretty cool. I’ll have to check it out.

Huh, I’ve never heard of MaomaoWM before. I’m happy to see the space of tiling Wayland compositors continue to be populated.

Would you say the main differences with River is the animations?

Solely from the parts of the lemmyverse I frequent, yes definitely. People would think you’re quite silly if you talked like a redditor, even if they were too polite to openly mock you for it.

Don’t bring your phone? Either that or a faraday

I’m not sure about markdown but plenty of IDEs can fold eg a method or a class. Off the top of my head I know Geany, Jetbrains, probably most gui text editors/IDEs do. Not sure about markdown specifically, I only use vim for markdown which I know can fold.

They meant that they wanted to do a test to see if they would get any gpg-encrypted emails from people who saw the hat in real life; the “experiment” doesn’t work if you allow internet strangers to email you too, as then you don’t know where a person may have gotten the email address/key from

OP never claimed the encryption of WA and iMessage “work for us”. They just said they were encrypted. That’s a neutral statement.

??? What does that have to do with what OP asked

What do I use the most or what do people use the most? I use Matrix the most as most of my friends are on it (+ have it bridged with some chats that aren’t on Matrix). Then after that SimpleX. I don’t know what the most popular encrypted messengers among the general population, except for the ones you listed, are.

I think yt-dlp allows you to use your browser’s cookies to appear as a signed in user for downloading videos. I never bothered trying that.

How easy is it to make a throwaway google account nowadays?

I make throwaway Google accounts semi-frequently, though I don’t remember what they require. If you have a phone number it’s definitely sufficient but I don’t remember if you can make one without a phone number. If they require a phone number you can just buy a cheap sim card (in cash if you care about privacy) and use that. It costs money so if you need hundreds of throwaway accounts maybe not, but if it’s just one for downloading videos then it’s probably NBD, you’d be spending money on the VPN anyway.

yt-dlp hasn’t worked for me for a few months on Mullvad. Using Swiss and Swedish servers but I’ve tried a couple other countries too, same problem.

I’m not talking about “AES”, I’m talking about communism. By the definition of “communism = AES” then communism doesn’t abolish class, private property, the value-form, nations, etc.

Anarchism distinguishes itself from communism principally by an inherent opposition to hierarchy, and an opposition to many of the organisational forms that communists may advocate for or participate in, eg communist parties, councils, and any kind of structure that could constitute a hierarchy. And anarchists are inherently opposed to centralisation, and so on.

That’s just a communist thing, not an anarchist-specific thing…
