Yes. But thats not word. Thats something else entirely which atleast my employer would never use (security, long term support, offline, integration with 3rd parties etc)

Disagree. E.g. Word typography is not as advanced as LibreOffice. And words document master is buggy as hell.

But yes. Excel can handle big files now. Still sucks at im- and exporting different csv formats…

But… Because it’s integrated so we’ll with windows, is faster most of the time.

In reality: of course word should be a better program and it does get lots of loving from redmond. Only because: if no new features, no new sales. And since word is mostly a solved problem, redmond invented new problems…

Working with a LO user and a sub par program always beats working with a word user who can’t use styles, review, and merge documents.

I consider myself long time noob ;)

Fedora for me because it’s rock solid, has cutting edge software, excellent documentation.

I,ve been updating the same installation more than 15 times i think.

Against: selinux is often overlooked when following guides written for Debian / ubuntu. So sometimes you pull out your hair.

On the other hand. Podman is supposedly the new favorite kid on the block. Fedora is on the front here

I am on Fedora. Beware fedora has SElinux enabled. That can cause you issues if you follow a guide written for Ubuntu.

Cool. Thx. No option for EU.

How do you do that? Monero is one of few coins that interested me back in the day, so I am not a hater at all. But adoptation is very much lacking, and i I have no idea how you but groceries with xmr.

I am not sure this script will help. But I actually have a lot of cue/bin files from back when I ripped my cd collection. If I remember correctly, I played them through mediamonkey (ape files) or foobar. Windows user then… Most CD’s are either lost or in the back of the attic somewhere. I consider the files dead, but havent deleted them yet. I use plex which can’t play cue/bin files. This script might make my old cd collection come alive again…

Thunderbird still uses mbox. Maildir is incomplete and experimental.

I really wish we could use maildir.

I’ve never really understood Usenet. As i understand it, usenetb is essentially centralized. Even though the experience might be better, i feel it is less safe? Also when taken into account there is payment and therefore zero anonymity…

I love that fmd can make your phone ring of you lose it. Who would have thought of that :)

Jeg tror det er vigtigt ikke at diskuterer for og imod AI. Men istedet bemærke hvad der sker i dette tilfælde:

1. det generelle retstats princip om at staten kun må indhente de relevante oplysninger for en sag, forsvinder, når alt kan være relevant for en algoritme. Det tillader vi jo heller ikke når politiet efterforsker en forbrydelse. Her skal der en dommerkendelse til. Hvis princippet forsvinder rykker det ved magtbalancen mellem individ og stat.

For at kunne rykke ved principperbe bliver man nød til at snakke om konsekvenserne og indholdet og processen. Det vil man ikke

2. høringen har været mangelfuld og fraværende.

3. ikke engang formålet med behandlingen, (navnet på algoritmen) må offentligheden få kendskab til. På den måde har vi fx ikke en ide om hvorvidt det bruges penge på at fange snyd med crypto, antiklamper, leasingfælder eller måske nordjyske campingvogne…

Det er altså ret princpielle skred i den måde det offentlige normalt opererer på

On a related note? When my friend on proton send me (regular imap, openpgp) and several others (gmail, outlook) an email with all of us as recipients, it seems that proton cheats? I get to decrypt the message, where’s the others just read plain ø, unincrypted text.

At first i thought this smart. But now i kind of realize how much of a nightmare this seems to be.

On the other hand, i am not really sure how they do it? Is it to different mails, with fake headers? Or is it more like: if no encryption is available, show thisb (dentical) text instead?

My take: if your camera is spying on you, there is a big chance that your entire device has been compromised. Ig that happens, it’s game over and me masturbating to bdsm furry porn is the least of my problems. Especially now that AI video exists anyway.

Nu har de fået en ny klasselærer i 4., som er god. Ellers havde havde vi skiftet skole. Men i fra 0 til 3. Var der fx mobiltid i skolen/sfo’en. Klasselæreren sagde at håndskrift ikke var vigtigt fordi der jo kom computere i 5. Klasse. Det var helt åndssvagt. Fra 0. klasse hvor 1.maj børn blev mødt med aktiviteter som “Fortnite dans” har jeg været en pain i ledelsens røv… min læring er, at ideen om at forældre sætter rammer er fuldstændigt gak. Vi fortæller vores børn at skolen har styr på faglighed, at de skal respekterer l lærerne etc. Med skolereformen bruger børn mere tid i skole og sfo end sammen med forældrene… Og så kommer de hjem til mig, der så skal i gang med at rette op på alt det digitale adhd skabende crap de har fået stoppet ned i halsen i skolen. Uden at undergrave skolens autoritet fuldstændigt. Og uden at sætte min søn uden for fællesskabet…

Jeg fandt ud af i ca m 2. klasse, at i det store spisefrikvarter sætter lærerne DR ultra på storskærm mens ungerne spiser madpakke. Der er så meget galt i det også…

Jep… Jeg har meget på hjerte.

Mit barns 4. Klasse. De er to drenge der ikke har en telefon. “Klassechatten” har været et problem siden 2. Klasse hvor det første forældremøde blev holdt. Det er især pigerne der føler sig mobbet eller udelukket. Chatten forstyrre. Forældrene fortæller at der en almindelig dag lander over 200 beskeder. Typisk bare emoji og bogstaver uden mening. Men hver gang et det mobilen der bimler. Og pigerne føler de skal responderer. Forældrene er enige om at chatten kun er åben fra 8 til 20. Men det er svært at håndhæve får jeg at vide.

Nogle af pigerne er på insta og tiktok. Nogle sender snaps. Jeg ved ikke så meget om hvad de laver der.

Drengene ser youtube og gamer. Og bliver blandt andet påvirket af sådan nogle andrew tate typer. Spillene er reelt gambling og ludomaniopskrifter.

Tag det som anekdotisk datapunkt.

I am no expert, so this is just my understanding: pgp encrypts the message, with the the recipients public key. Once the private key is compromised , bruforced or cracked, all messages are compromised. With signal, and all the other apps that uses signal protocol, it’s different. Here, the key is renewed often (i think for each message) and the key is device dependant. Therefore if the key is compromised no previous messages are compromised and neither are communications with other people. This is what e2e means, and pgp is not that. Also the key or self is harder to crack I think, but i am not sure how strong signals elliptic curve crypto is finished to a 4096 rsa key.

Tldr: pgp is a simple encryption at rest, that can be cracked once and for all. Signal et. All is e2e encrypted and much harder to compromise one and for all.

My 2 ¢: Email is inherently not private. With tls you have encryption in transit, but as soon as the data hits the server no metadata is ever encrypted. With pgp you can encrypt the message content, sure, but not with many of the advanced features we expect from e.g. Signal and matrix. Therefore it doesn’t really matter if you use proton ot tuta, unless you exclusively mail other proton/tuta users.

I am extremely happy with purelymail.com. extremely cheap and versatile. I also use mailfence.com but that’s only because i’d like to have two different servers for something as important as mail. Been a customer with purely for probably 3+ years . Mailfence probably 6+ years. Have seen two small outages with mailfence. None with purely.

Well. I personally am very annoyed that i can’t choose a specific pin for signal. That means my kid can read my messages, because yes… Keeping password from a child is neigh impossible. But my pin for element, fairmail, telegram he don’t know.

So i get a lot of the criticism. For me personally, it’s still a matter of trust. A future malicious molly version might eavesdrop. Signal will probably not do so.

Encryption at rest on an unlocked phone is probably a hard problem. But if somebody is targeting me to that extent, i am probably toast anyways.

I try to create enough usage so that journalists and activists can hide in the mob, and i can hide from fang.

I use element, but do worry about the local server implementation and leak of metadata.

My confidence in signal is greater than my confidence in a random fork. Privacy is hard… So I feel it’s better to trust something less than ideal, than to trust a random dude promising to solve all problems…

That’s just my threat model.
