this is cool as hell

so this is a warning for the warning he's about to make

i think the DPRK is the only on that list i don't hold positive opinions about, or really any at all. everything i "know" on it is typical western propaganda so i try to keep my opinions open

yeah i've had my eye on hexbear for a while. if Lemmy weren't so resource intensive i'd run a personal instance myself, but looks like hexbear is probably where i'll end up (assuming they accept me :p)

looking more and more like I'll be making an alt on another instance then... :p

i can understand being dubious of WhatsApp given it's closed source and owned by Facebook. but Telegram and WeChat? Both closed source and with very questionable encryption? Signal is the only clear answer.

also side-note, WhatsApp audits and analyses have all come back confirming it's at least deploying the same end-to-end encryption as Signal, though stores a bit more metadata. so Facebook knows when / who you're messaging. Telegram / WeChat are much worse in this regard. as an anti western imperialist i'd still choose WhatsApp over Telegram / WeChat for comms. though ideally none of the above for anything important

oh i had no idea about this, yikes. and you're absolutely right re: mastodon

man "leaked private messages" is such a weak fucking excuse in the face of transphobia. @nutomic@lemmy.ml you realize you're just alienating a huge fucking number of comrades? not just trans people, but all those that rightfully stand with us too.

edit: nutomic you absolutely can come back from this if you don't double down. accept your shit, and work on it. and you know what that would be great to see, there's not enough of that in the world.

if not then @dessalines@lemmy.ml and other core devs, i think you have a tough decision to make. i absolutely do not envy you. though do keep in mind that handling this correctly will solidify even tighter community support behind the Lemmy project.

we need more good comrades behind ActivityPub development :p

china is at least giving me hope on the climate change front

are you sure the volume the sqlite database file is in has the correct permissions? not just in the container, but on the host, does the appropriate docker user id have permission to see what's in the folder? i've been caught out myself on that before when files in the folder had correct permissions, but the containing folder for them couldn't be accessed :p

of course, we must keep supplying the source of their misery, how else can we then help them out of their misery?

what's your setup for this out of interest? are you running a Dev environment under tmux or something? 🤔

and that's bad why?

I'm hooked already

I disagree, the judge declared the sentence time hinged on the girl being the ringleader of the two and specifically targeting the victim (at least partially) out of transphobia. it was only the cops that said it wasn't related to transphobia, and frankly the cops in this country have a shite reputation for being transphobic themselves so chances they'd look over that are high.

news aside, dear lord there are some serious american imperialism shills in this thread

this is my goto sleep-time track https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dn8-KJvXRj8

even if they are only "pushing", there will still need to be profile data exchanged with Threads in order to access it, if they have http signatures enabled (i.e. authorized fetch under mastodon)

i sneeze full force but i don't make much of a sound usually. they have been described by others as "pathetic"
