Just so you understand: social media apps (and websites!) measure your linger time (how long the device’s viewport is over specific stuff), the cadence of your typing, correlate the use timing to generate an idea of your sleep/work schedule, use tons of seemingly innocuous device reported metrics and naturally scrape your cookies through cross application “attacks” in addition to paying attention to the interactive parts they surface to you like clicking stuff, liking or favoriting, repeat viewing, friending or whatever.

There’s two reasons I’m saying this: one is because you may not realize that the algorithm is showing you porno because it recognizes that you interacted with porno just by being disgusted by it or by letting the screen rest there long enough to tug one out. It doesn’t know the difference.

The other is to hopefully help make it clear exactly how wrong people were when they called social media the panopticon.

The panopticon isn’t just a word we use to describe surveillance, but a real building design some English guy came up with where all the prisoners cells are in a big circle and so you save on guard costs because one guard in a central tower can look at any particular one.

It’s a stupid idea because prison guards are cheap and provide more than just the threat of observation and it relies on the prisoners all knowing they could be observed, not being certain that they are being observed.

Social media is an unimaginable inversion of the panopticon where the prisoner is in the middle surrounded by manned guard posts all equipped with searchlights pointed at him.

Just bear in mind that when you do bring up this stuff to your brother you’re gonna need to mediate your recognition of how insane the world is.

You’re gonna have better luck changing your habits than you will making a block that you yourself can’t overcome.

I have enough limited experience receiving and transmitting rf signals between terrestrial stations and between terrestrial and extraterrestrial stations that I’m very interested in how rf interference and therefore its mitigation is different when the interference source is extraterrestrial.

-14% or -27%

Duh

I mean in a more technical sense. In what way is “traditional” terrestrial frequency jamming with wide band noise different when the source is extraterrestrial instead?

How would you say that interference broadcast from satellite is different?

Just stick with proton. Email isn’t secure and it doesn’t matter what the company does.

It’s possible but it’s more likely that the proton people were actually right place right time to catch lightning in a bottle and keep fucking up because they’re stupid and didn’t plan for it.

It doesn’t hurt that people who supposedly care about anonymity, security and privacy actually care about if they’re buying from someone they disagree with or get scoffed at online for using protons services.

For some reason I thought block 3 gps has some kind of rotating side channel bit selection method to resist jamming “perform more consistently in poor electromagnetic conditions” or some such…

Break your boy off a piece of the rapidly inflating contents of that bank account and I’ll fill you in on how to get past that feeling and reach a more whole state of being.

E: I am being %100 deadass. This post is not a joke or attempt to get “free” money. I know exactly what you’re describing and when you’re ready I’ll help you figure out why you specifically are experiencing it.

You’ll be fine, just do it

Hey since you know a lot about this stuff, can you settle the balls/no balls debate?

TIL a racial slur with over a hundred years of use to demean and insult billions of people is the same as the word used to describe big titty dragons having penetrative sex with automobiles.

Please post the updated slurs.txt so I can call you them.

Ty, comedy is my passion.

Futa apps

Oh no, not something to push people to adopt new block 3 capable receivers!

Surely they won’t just use $20 glonass or beidou receivers…

When I start a new roguelike:

Activate [j]ump ability, view [l]og, no item underfoot to mark for [k]eeping, [h]ide.

So you have two different countries, two different sets of laws, and two different services with wildly different offerings.

You can’t really compare a drilled down percentage of compliance and reach the conclusion that there’s a difference in methodology under those conditions.

Just the much broader spectrum of services that proton offers makes it more likely that they will be in a position where they are required to comply with a larger portion of requests than tuta.

This is not intended to be a defense of proton, just a recognition that metrics are hard to take seriously in a comparison.

No company is in a position to resist lawful orders from government (not good orders, lawful).

It’s why every company that sells security makes a big show about planning to leave some western country when they say they’re gonna do mass surveillance. It’s all they can do.

Email is not secure and cannot be made secure.

Do not ever send anything through email that you rely on being private.

Replace your thermal paste with ptm or some other ptm like.

The paste becomes crap over time.

It may be worth your time to use a ptm alike and new thermal pads on your 7600 as well, or pay a shop to do that.

Check that air is actually getting to your components. It’s easy for fan screens to get plugged up and for some reason people used to not put enough fans in their cases.

Those msi b450 motherboards have annoying bioses so check if there some ridiculous fan curve mess turned on or misconfigured.

I call else fails, noc-tua, blow on that thing.
