signal has been eroding it’s trustworthiness, and all the stuff you said is why myself and most folks keep using it despite its downsides. in a perfect world more of us would be working to make xmpp a viable option for most people but as it stands it’s a touch too technical for the average person’s mom and dad, who are ultimately who you have to appeal to
telegram did something important by being the first mass market “private” messenger that people were aware of. it has outlived this usefulness by nearly five years now. even the things that replaced it at this point are getting run into the ground and require replacing.
how’d you do that?
I think the issue is that this marketing consultant didn’t build anything. They just prompted an LLM to generate output
Yeah which if that’s the argument we’re having… I kinda don’t want to give people that dumb any influence. The fediverse symbol is not a pentagram and if the rainbow giving gay people visibility is somehow wrong, then… Fuck me I guess because I’d rather make gay people comfortable than a bunch of folks who’ve fallen down some manner of christofascist rabbit hole
The weak argument they make is this doesn’t look good at small sizes. Personally I don’t think that constitutes a good enough reason to rebrand the fediverse
Microsoft is still who vetted and hired the contractor and who selected the location.
And yeah. Past CEOs of Microsoft have continued to be shitty. They’re who’s responsible for what’s going on. I just wanted to talk about the ways white knight philanthropy doesn’t help, it just perpetuates colonialism, and Bill Gates+Microsoft have always been in lock step in this regard.
The point is the true villain here is colonialism
So construction waste is a subcategory of industrial waste. Typical industrial waste includes toxic materials like excess cement, fiberglass, bits of plastic from wires and cables. But once the data center is in place, most likely the waste will be e-waste in nature. Think heavy metals, copper, and yet more plastic. And the thing is… This is why they’re putting this data center here. Disposing of this toxic waste will be cheaper because it’s less regulated. The long term cost of high tech industries like this to neo-colonialized communities like this is the communities themselves. It doesn’t matter to Microsoft they’re making the water undrinkable. They don’t have to live there.
And realize, too. Bill Gates’ philanthropic missions aren’t accidents. He may not run the show at Microsoft anymore but he still benefits greatly from their business. His philanthropic efforts aren’t about making the lives of people who are exploited better. They’re about maintaining that cheap form of labor just a little bit longer. And that may not be Bill Gates’ actual intention, but the fact of the matter is he’s a billionaire. He could make much larger changes in the world by not being a billionaire. He has power and influence to do things the rest of us can’t, but instead of treating the illness he treats the symptoms. His actions sustain the system he benefits from
Sure yeah. I think corpos suck, too. That’s why I don’t prefer 1password. But Firefox puts their passwords into a file, too (two actually). Key3.db and Logins.json, both with known locations, and encrypted using AES-256-GCM which is… Decent but I prefer to go a little more hardened. The thing with keepass is the following:
But I want to make it abundantly clear. @Dyskolos@lemmy.zip has not recommended storing your passwords in a file. They have suggested storing your passwords in a mechanism that can be as secure as your hardware is capable of securing and keeping the location of that up to your own decision making.
But also. Promise me this. If you’re going to keep using Firefox as your password manager:
Correction: yes it will. Source: that’s how I installed it

Cover the G logo with a pop socket or some shit. No one will give enough of a shit to desire your phone. Buying used always denies OEMs sales so its always good to buy used
Using the internet without an adblocker is genuinely dangerous. Everyone really should be using uBlock Origin. Using a web browser that prevents uBlock Origin puts you in danger
I wonder if its because Beehaw is staying on 18.x while awaiting Sublinks
Lionir is talking about API implementations for everything to go off a single CSS file or a single icon pack. Not about the implementation of your personal desired aesthetic (I refuse to use the term rice, it has origins in racist car and motorcycle culture)
If you use a deterministic password manager, make sure you make your master password strong
In-built password managers for browsers are straightforward to crack. Like… Terrifyingly easy. It’s much better to use something like Bitwarden, Vaultwarden if you don’t trust Bitwarden, 1Password if you really want the reassurance of paying someone for trust, or KeePass if you don’t trust anyone at all (I, personally, fit into this category).
