Good point. The first repo, anon-vpn, has single commit made 3 weeks ago.

Security sensitive software require time, review or audit. Let’s give this time, it may take a few months to 2 years until there’s either enough scrutiny to either confirm it’s safe, or reveal problems.

Until them, keep using well-known open-source software.

What about Lineage OS support?

The platform that works closest to this is https://www.liberapay.com/

It used to allow making 1 monthly payment and spreading it between projects. But they had to change to comply with banking/payment platform rules so each money transfer is directed to one beneficiary from the get go. Meaning you setup a recurring payment per project.

There’s also the nlnet foundation https://nlnet.nl/

It’s possible to give them 1 recurring payment to support OSS projects. But they manage how the money is split between projects and their own overhead. You don’t pick the projects.

Thirty is young enough, but if younger people want to speak then it’s great. I hope it’d more convincing to have real humans speak out than bots.

Russians opposing Putin are eventually declared extremist and either in exile, poisoned, or sent to prison.

So the only persons alive and able to openly critize Putin are outside Russia.

No need for AI slop. There are already young russian women speaking loudly against Putin. What is lacking is the ability for opponents to have their voice heard in Russia.

Après moi, le déluge

In 10-20 years Microsoft may finally reach a point Windows finally gets a package manager with a well-defined package format, auto update, atomic transactions, just a few decades after Linux.

Name the fonction after a war criminal.

Thanks.

Whoever cropped the author or artist signature should whip him/herself.

Caling your MEP is more efficient.

Protecting the identity of members make sense. If that org is fighting bad actors engaged in CSAM and child abuse, they’d want to shield themselves from harrasment and retaliation.

What’s most shady is the tactic, asking third party to block archive.is when they apparently didn’t ask achive.is themselves to remove the content.

The sad thing is you paid to get a car with a TCU, then paid a mechnic to remove it. Assuming you’re not a mechnic/hobbist yourself.

It’s good that Mozilla is shaming car companies and shining a spotlight on the issue. Journalists need to ask about tracking and privacy when a new car model comes out. Buyer should ask sellers the same.

You may be right, but I don’t see how that change the calculus. Should employees and union be complacent with corps’ bad and potentially illegal actions (firing for being in an union is not legal in some areas), refuse to defend colleagues, just to avoid hurting the corporation pride?

Anyway, we’ll probably hear more soon, and will see how this play out.

R* should have thought of that before doing union busting. Now management is left with bad options and have to decide which option is least bad, for instance admitting they were wrong, or let the situation decay further and potentially escalate the fight against their own workforce.

That’s a great ad for anyone selling pools.

It’s both, and not a small amount of bytes.

Adblocking is a more efficient way to make adversiting unprofitable, as it avoid wasting both yours’ and adtech’s bandwidth.

Wasting resources isn’t a great strategy, even if someone else is paying for it.

Not satisfied with polluting earth with resource-hungry data centers, Google is looking into polluting earth’s orbit.

Is this clickbait, or is the story as omnious as the headline suggest?

if a 100% effective cure (or preventative) for cancer comes around, what will be the next big goal?

Making the cure accessible. Some cancer treatments are more effective AND much more expensive. Companies may be looking for return on investment, or the treatment is tailor-made from the patient’s own cells, and inherently labor intensive and hard to produce.

Either way, curing 100% of the richest 5% who can afford it isn’t the most satifying outcome.
