When I announced I would be closing my communities earlier this year, a curious thing happened: a surprising number of regulars replied with some variation of “I think this is my exit.” While some were specifically talking about Matrix, claiming that mine was the only room they were really active in and therefore they saw no...
As my friends and family have come to respect my lifestyle, they make a point of sending me videos, pictures, and other content that they also posted online so that I don’t miss out.
Our results show that women's contributions tend to be accepted more often than men's [when their gender is hidden]. However, when a woman's gender is identifiable, they are rejected more often. Our results suggest that although women on GitHub may be more competent overall, bias against them exists nonetheless.
I'm not on tiktok but my understanding is that there's a lot of Palestinians on there whose voice otherwise wouldn't be heard from the taxpayers that are funding their genocide.
That's a very positive political consequence of the platform.
I think you made a valid point, and its absurd you got down voted
I do think its ironic that you're advocating for an exodus from mainstream platforms to the fediverse. Those mainstream users are exactly the same users who don't understand what the downvote button is for..
The notice shared several recommendations to protect against the attacks such as blocking access to services from insecure infrastructure such as anonymization services (VPN providers and Tor exit nodes) and VPS providers. Cisco released important security updates to address these vulnerabilities.
Tor is "insecure infrastructure" wtf are they smoking?!? It doesn't get more secure than TAILS.
They're not necessarily made for killing. Most people defending themself with a pistol (whose only purpose is for shooting humans) would not want to shoot for the head or chest
But, again, the same applies. I deposit btc or cash into a bank, even $50k, then I disclose its source to the authorities, with the paperwork. But by using a privacy service, I can comply with the law and protect myself from malicious actors
Go open a bank account right now and try to deposit a briefcase full of $50,000
I've done this. They ask you for the paperwork documenting the source of the funds. Just follow the process. It doesn't matter if its fiat or crypto.
Uh, I started this thread, and I brought up other products: electric chairs and the guillotine.
And, no, hunting rifles are the worst kind of guns. They are definitely designed for killing. But my point was that not all guns are designed for killing.
I have my personal blog, made with Hugo and hosted on GitHub pages. Initially I did not turn on any kind of web tracking / web analytics, because I do not like tracking at all. But I want to make my blog better and to achieve it, I need a feedback loop about traffic. For example, what are the most popular publications, or how...

Guess you have a very insecure browser. Try hardening it and then logging into both. GitLab will throw you in an infinite loop at login. GitHub works fine.
