  • [Opinion / Technology] Telegram founder’s arrest is radical — if it’s a crime to build privacy tools, there will be no privacy [Chris Berg | Aug 29, 2024 | crikey.com.au]

    Jump

  • they did ban it, and everyone still used it (Telegram was good at evading the bans back then, but eventually Roskomnadzor became decent at banning it), and then they unbanned it, whatever that means

  • Turns out, I wanted a tiled window manager all along

    Jump

  • I use sway on my phone, had to add a secondary menu bar with a few keys for stuff like opening rofi, but it works perfectly fine otherwise

  • Founder and CEO of Telegram messaging service arrested in France

    Jump

  • Russia banned Telegram, everyone (incl. the government) continued to use it, Russia unbanned Telegram - that's how it looks from here. A government official told me Telegram being unbanned was just a matter of time when it was still banned.

  • people always joke about this but defenestration has never been that common in neither the Russian Empire, USSR nor Russian Federation

  • What are your favorite open-source games?

    Jump

  • it receives relatively frequent updates, and it uses love2d (with a native lua module for the AI) so it's crossplatform.

  • Llama 3.1 is out!

    Jump

  • the code is FOSS, the weights aren't, this is pretty common with e.g. FOSS games, the only difference here is weights are much costlier to remake from scratch than game assets

  • Japan declares victory in effort to end government use of floppy disks

    Jump

  • huh? I'd say email was quite popular there, it was just tied to the mobile operator (and has then been replaced with Line)

  • China's Xi accused the US of trying to trick him into invading Taiwan, but said he won't take the bait

  • The right of self-determination means that a nation may arrange its life in the way it wishes. It has the right to arrange its life on the basis of autonomy. It has the right to enter into federal relations with other nations. It has the right to complete secession. Nations are sovereign, and all nations have equal rights.

  • again, !bang is for searching using a specific search engine, !!bang is for redirecting to a search engine's page

    !g will search with google

    !!g will redirect to google

    all ddg bangs are supported to my knowledge, but obviously !bang will only work with the search engines searxng supports

  • Mozilla Firefox Blocks Add-Ons to Circumvent Russia Censorship

    Jump

  • it might work with obfuscation, in general my preferred solution is VPN+proxy, the proxy is used for bypassing the DPI and doesn't have to adhere to particularly high standards and can be easily swapped, and the VPN is used via the proxy for actually routing L3 traffic

  • Mozilla Firefox Blocks Add-Ons to Circumvent Russia Censorship

    Jump

  • Well, Tor (with bridges) still works just fine, I don't really know any other "crowdsourced" proxy networks. Telegram isn't blocked (it used to be, but everyone used it anyway, including people in the government, so they unblocked it), so any info there is freely available. Wireguard and OpenVPN are blocked (even within Russia for some reason), shadowsocks is throttled on certain connections but works fine, and I haven't extensively tested anything else.

    Also, mobile networks are used for testing stricter blocking measures before rolling them out to landline connections

  • searxng has bangs too

  • RustDesk (FOSS easy to use TeamViewer alternative) has experimental Wayland support that needs testing!

  • this kind of software is mostly used for tech support, so your option is too hard to setup

  • Firefox has a problem and Android phones are affected by it (does that help all of you down voters?l

    Jump

  • I agree that's a problem, but refresh rate is one of the fingerprinting methods, and resistFingerprinting doesn't offer finetuning options (except canvas permissions?), which is what prevents me from using it

    Jump

  • you can change that in about:config, i think privacy.resistFingerprinting is the culprit

  • TCL demonstrates 4K gaming monitor with a 1,000 Hz refresh rate

    Jump

  • as a rhythm gamer, I can say you're full of shit lol

    I have 240hz and the difference between 120hz and 240hz is somewhat noticeable, don't see why I'd need any more than this though
