Where do you think your staunchest supporters are today?

/Proton Visionary that doesn't use Reddit for reasons

(quote from the account info, they didn't even make a post of it)

@dangoodin@infosec.exchange Or maybe we actually need to come clean about how _good_ alternatives will never be as "simple" as the bad ones - and stop claiming they must?

It is harder to run your own web site than to use Substack. It is more difficult to set up your own Matrix server than to create "your own" Discord "server". It is more difficult to drive a car than to ride the bus.

Your union should accept that it's up to them to use the right tools for the job.

I run a Matrix server for my family. Once it's up and running (trivial for anyone who's ever hosted anything) the usability is most definitely on par with Slack et.al. My elderly parents have absolutely no problems navigating the Element X client fluently.

@taviso@social.sdf.org Ahhh beautiful. That reminded me of when Microsoft used not-meant-for-hashing TEA for ... hashing :D

No, there's nothing in #Firefox' new ToS that has me change browser, yet. The edits might mean things could change in the future, but any switch will be as easily made then as it would be now.

@aphyr@woof.group also all over Lemmy/Mbin

@chainq@mastodon.social Haha when did you get them though?? I have a single rev 6 060 in my Falcon and will protect it with my life :D

Remember those posts on how Mitre declined assigning a CVE for an IoT exploit I identified and disclosed here a bunch of months ago?

It turns out Mitre did change their minds after I had explained how it could be exploited and thus it did get published through the CVE process after all. Just now.

@cR0w@infosec.exchange oh lord. I wrote DES stuff in the beginning of the 90s.

@avadeaux@mastodon.nu Precis. USA, Europa, Ryssland och China har alla egna system. Hårdvaran för "GPS" har i många år haft stöd för minst tre av dem, när jag hade koll på det i mobilvärlden.

@avadeaux@mastodon.nu Du vet om att när vi säger "GPS" pratar vi egentligen om fyra olika system varav ett är helt Europeiskt?

@bodil@social.treehouse.systems

I'm sure you are - but is it one of the allowed exceptions? Daniel is (mostly) right here.

(I went from Github to Codeberg but for the really private stuff I wouldn't put it in the cloud anyway so I run my own Gitness too)

@tastapod@mas.to

@NotErsichtlic Bluesky aren't running the bot. You're really really misunderstanding what's happening here.

@NotErsichtlic You completely misunderstand that message. It simply says that your reply won't be visible for the original Bluesky poster unless you yourself bridge your account.

Nothing about moving anywhere.

@littlealex@infosec.exchange "At first I only had negative feedback when I posted new additions to my collection, later on almost every post where I showed some exotic hardware. Some little brats flooded my DMs and kept saying that I should check my privileges before I bring something like that."

wtf!

I'm very sorry to see you leave. We have exactly the same interests and I am lucky to not have experienced the same feedback as you have.

@mttaggart@infosec.exchange To the question of what they do with the data we enter - it covers something as simple as sending what we type into the address bar to third party search services.

To me it mostly sound like just the legalese someone tasked with "make sure we're ok license wise" would come up with.

@Inno_3@framapiaf.org

I thought OpenSUSE was quite European too but maybe I'm just thinking of SUSE/Germany?
