:q!<CR> is equivalent to ZQ

guess which type of person prefers which rhetoric

The answer would surprise you, see The Righteous Mind for elaborations, but TL;DR while the US Republicans succeed at capturing morally more diverse population, especially (and ironically) the rural and working-class, the US Democrats still fail to cater to or even acknowledge foundations other than care, liberty and fairness.

Steamworks is DRM like anything, but if it is possible to play without it then it’s “yours”, is how I summarize it.

Since we're in a community about events making us (regrettably) admit that Stallman was right, I don't think freedom 0 alone is enough for the concept of ownership.

But are the games you redeem even yours?

if I sent you a private message, is that viewable in plain text by not just the instance owner we’re both on

Yes.

other federated instances too?

Not by design, but instances can misbehave.

private messaging over AP

Private is misleading here: for messaging to be private, no third party should be able to read the messages. In practice, this usually requires end-to-end encryption.

I've been using disroot.org for a few years and it does what I expect. Recently I started a maddy.email server on a VPS and it's easier than I thought.

doesn’t collect my data and its [sic] secure as well

To quote cock.li,

How can I trust you?

You can't. Cock.li doesn't parse your E-mail to provide you with targeted ads, nor does cock.li read E-mail contents unless it's for a legal court order. However, it is 100% possible for me to read E-mail, and IMAP/SMTP doesn't provide user-side/client-side encryption, so you're just going to have to take my word for it. Any encryption implementation would still technically allow me to read E-mail, too. This was true for Lavabit as well -- while your E-mail was stored encrypted (only if you were a paid member, which most people forget), E-mail could still technically be intercepted while being received / sent (SMTP), or while being read by your mail client (IMAP). For privacy, we recommend encrypting your E-mails using PGP using a mail client add-on like Enigmail, or downloading your mail locally with POP and regularly deleting your mail from our server.

isync can be used for archiving IMAP into maildir format, which is readable by all MUAs.

Its market share defeats the point of self-hosting.

If you have a static IPv6 address you can host your own authoritative DNS locally and use it for IPv4.

I use Liferea, which

  • Discovers web feeds from web page's alternate link
  • Embeds WebKit to render HTML in full
  • Supports RSS comments
  • Has configurable enclosure handler, so I can open YouTube in mpv

Original article (in French) so gaggle doesn't know what one reads.

 

You are at a lever. A trolley is approaching 5 people tied to the track. You can pull the lever to diver the trolley to the other track, giving another person at the lever the same options you had.

Do you pull the lever?
