When this happens, I usually wait a day or two and review the text then. Better to do it with a clear head at that point.

I'm not talking to a machine unless it's actually capable of feeling offended if I don't

lmao

I’m happy such a trivial thing is what’s keeping you there.

can you link me that science

not doubting this experiment but isn’t basing the validity of the myth on one instance a bit misleading

Paedophiles create nude AI images of children to extort from them, says charity | Internet safety | The Guardian (www.theguardian.com)

Internet Watch Foundation has found a manual on dark web encouraging criminals to use software tools that remove clothing. The manipulated image could then be used against the child to blackmail them into sending more graphic content, the IWF said.

I was just watching a tiktok with a black girl going over how race is a social construct. This felt wrong to me

Lol

Hi! Thank you so much for the all the links, I really appreciate it. And thank you for introducing me to both Filen and Cryptee. Regarding Filen, I have a question. It says the price for lifetime starter is €30, but are there any other lifetime options (such as for the pro plans) that offer more storage?

@clark@midwest.social avatar

Hi, thank you for the comment! I’m very interested in those links about getting started with NextCloud. :)

clark OP ,
@clark@midwest.social avatar

Do you know how Filen compares to Nextcloud or Syncthing? It’s definitely confusing to try to navigate in this huge technical world and know what service is the best haha

    Cool art! Who’s the artist?

    I figured, but I thought I’d ask anyways in case somebody else knew :3

    also I'm so fucking white that I eat Dark Chocolate candy bars not because I genuinely prefer the taste (I mean I do), but because at this point I'm worried that's the whole reason I haven't turned completely straight up transparent.

    Accidentally un-voted my first vote because I thought I gave it a new one, this made me exhale lmao.

    @clark@midwest.social avatar

    In that case, would you not recommend Motorola? I’m not very well versed on their terms of privacy, and I really like the way they look and how seemingly good the battery is, but if it’s considered unsafe or full of malware then I might need to look other ways.

    I will read more into this, but it sounds reasonable. If I were to get a Pixel, is there any particular model I should get or does it not matter? Does Graphene support all models?

    I’m not educated enough to comment on most of your points, so here is my set-up:

    • Web: Safari on iPhone with Google browser, Firefox + uBlock origin on desktop with Google browser. I had DDG for a while but I missed the short summary answers you get when you type in a question to Google. I am not in a place to pay for a browser (i.e. Kagi).

    • Mobile: iPhone with free tier NextDNS. I am looking into buying a Samsung S9/S10 to install LineageOS on. It’s been a while I used Android so I’m not sure how easy that will be. I store all my passwords in Apple’s “Passwords” in settings, and all of them are 20+ characters long and complex (I use a generator whenever I make a new password). Any suggestions on (free/FOSS) password storers?

    • Messenger: I use Facebook messenger to communicate with my family as only my sister and I have iOS. Furthermore, FB is the only social media I have besides Lemmy.

    • Email: I use ProtonMail but am considering switching to Tutanota. I don’t have the opportunity to pay for a mail provider right now.

    • Music/streaming: I use Spotify for music. I use FreeTube for YT on desktop only. My parents pay for Netflix & HBO and so I watch them sometimes, although I have made it a habit to pirate movies online. Also books. Part of me wants to download my music from Spotify and store it somewhere, but iPhone Drive isn’t the greatest when it comes to that. Maybe somebody has (free/FOSS) suggestions?

    • Misc: I never pay with cash since most stores don’t take it. I use Bluetooth earphones. I don’t game.

    Keep in mind I am relatively new to the piracy / privacy community and there’s a lot of terms I don’t know. I hope to improve my privacy and receive advice from more experienced people. Cheers!

    I remember I tried out Spotube on my computer but the code wouldn’t work. Also a minus it’s not available on iOS. How does Graphene differ from Lineage, in any way that it is preferable?

    clark ,
    @clark@midwest.social avatar

    It’s really too bad Graphene doesn’t seem to support Samsung phones, or any phone that isn’t Google.

    That’s true, but bi women mainly face fetishisation.

    Affordable Android Excellence: Best Smartphones Under $200 in 2024 (www.gizchina.com)

    While flagship smartphones boast impressive features, spending $1,000 is not a prerequisite for a satisfying Android experience nowadays. If you’re in need of a new smartphone and have a budget of approximately $200, there are numerous excellent options available. Surprisingly, some of the best Android phones under $200 come...

    I’m sorry if this is the wrong place to ask, but do older phones running Lineage still receive updates? Say, Samsung S9, is it worth installing the OS despite its age? Not too knowledgable on this area, just wanna learn!

    clark ,
    @clark@midwest.social avatar

    If the device no longer supports updates, is it safe to still run Lineage on it?

    clark ,
    @clark@midwest.social avatar

    Does that also go for devices that don’t receive Lineage updates anymore?
