So my fear of sharks has gotten better, and I don’t quite understand why.

Curious 🏳️‍⚧️

But anyhow, you’ve probably found me because you’ve seen one of my totally inconspicuous comments

I’m open to chat about these and other related things over on Matrix

miss_brainfarts , to Privacy in Thought on Graphene?

Like the other reply said, Lineage doesn't do a whole lot in terms of degoogling. I quite enjoy DivestOS, it's a project that takes Lineage as a base and strips out as much Google and proprietary code as possible.
In fact, it's so Google-free that neither sandboxed Play Services nor MicroG are officially supported, though the latter can still be installed and used just fine, though with a few drawbacks.

Same as Lineage, it runs on more devices, but certain features like bootloader relocking depend on the phone.

Ah, PC Gaming Wiki, what a fantastic resource. Made realize how many games in my libraries are actually DRM-free

I'd love for some big regulatory body forcing them to word it better and more clearly.

miss_brainfarts , to Privacy in Does VPNs even work against Big Brother apps? Using one really protects our privacy? (masking our location)

One of those times where it sounded perfectly correct in my head, whoops

miss_brainfarts , to Privacy in Does VPNs even work against Big Brother apps? Using one really protects our privacy? (masking our location)

Others have said all the important things, but I wanted to add that there are things that Android always tunnels through a VPN, like internet connectivity checks.

So even with Always-ON and Block Connections, this will still ignore a VPN

There exists a frontend called Proxitok, but I can't comment on how well it works or what it can do. The LibRedirect addon for Firefox can redirect you to the instance of your choosing.

Great addon in general, do check it out if you don't know it already.

A very stupid gamer lesbian with a dash of chaos activist, that sounds about right

miss_brainfarts , to Privacy in Telegram founder and CEO alledges signal has backdoors, they don't provide reproduceible builds, etc.

That breaks anonymity, not privacy

Meanwhile I use a monitor with a max brightness of 250nits, and I still have it set to its absolute minimum.

I can't even imagine how just a short flash of 400 would feel to me

miss_brainfarts , to 196 in when somebody asks me why my GNU+Linux looks so cute

It's the absolutely-proprietary package in the AUR, don't know if it exists on other distros

Oh yeah, that reminds me I wanted to try out A Tale of Two Wastelands. And I see there's a lot of mods bringing textures, models and even animations from Fallout 4 to NV and 3? That could make for a great experience

miss_brainfarts , to 196 in I shame(ru)lessly stole this from Tumblr

„Me not having worked during that time quite literally means this time isn't anyone's business“

Oh, we've been through this though. Which other platform will ever have the cash to be a real contender here?
