Finally deleted my LinkedIn account!
I keep LinkedIn telling myself it's necessary to find a job but I don't think I've ever gotten a job from LinkedIn, now that I think about it.

What phone brand do you like the best?
I don't get people claiming stock iPhone is private. We literally have very little idea. It's a closed system. It's private if you take Apple's word but all the other manufacturers also have similar claims. Why trust Apple and not them?
On top of that you end up locked into their ecosystem, unable to use most FOSS applications or have cut down versions of them because daddy Apple didn't like some features.

People in the privacy community need to get over the unrealistic dream that regular people will adopt Matrix when we can't even get them to use Signal. The only way Matrix will have mass adoption is through getting a lot of corporate clients. Then the workers might choose to use it personally too after being familiar with it.

Yes iPhones are secure but not private. The two are related but different concepts. I'm not sure what exactly your friend is referring to though.

Meh, when you have a chip that powerful and that energy efficient, trying something in wearable computing is a no brainer imo.

It does feel like that.
That's why I don't get the arguments about "x and y will kill the fediverse". Bruh there's nothing to kill in the first place.

Expecting Discord to delete your data is like expecting a company to burn the money you paid them after you stop doing business with them.

My experience with Nvidia had been mostly seamless (although, laptops could be performing worse) up until recently when everything started bursting into flames. Electron applications are nuts, steam store doesn't even render, multiple game broke down fully. I can't even find any other use reports.

Israeli strikes on Rafah raise fear assault could begin
The war began after Hamas fighters raided Israel on Oct. 7, killing 1,200 people and abducting 253 hostages according to Israeli tallies.
That's not when the war began.

I don't think you will ever be able to use Wayland on Nvidia without enabling modesetting which sounds like you haven't.

Thoughts on Guard.io as a service for lesser tech savvy family members?
Is it necessary, compared to the measures I mentioned above?
That product is trash but how is what you're doing helping with phishing?

I nuked NixOS so can't really test but doubt this is relevant. It was working before and Arch has the same issue.
