If I got a dollar for every bug I’ve submitted that’s in the backlog I’d almost be paid as much as the CEO

Maybe the ransomware would be better than seeing the video

Yes they’re an OG private mail provider who then started offering VPN. I have mixed feelings about their service. It’s average imo. But yes if you’re really wanting free then either Proton or AdGuard are probably somewhat trustworthy-ish.

Correct, but you get what you pay for. And they’re worth the cost. I wouldn’t trust a free VPN as much as I don’t trust an ISP. Even paid VPNs shouldn’t be wholly trusted either. But, the two I mentioned are probably the most reputable for privacy, besides Tor.

I think the best battle-tested VPN providers have been Mullvad and IVPN

I’m Jewish so it’s not possible. But cool story bro.

Good thing I’m not defending any neo-Nazis

Well, as a Jew, I haven’t seen anything else from Elon that’s emblematic of being a Nazi. Sure, he has some right wing beliefs, but those were pretty centrist ideals prior to the past decade. And I have encountered real neo-Nazis who have wished death upon my [k expletive] ass and attempted doxing. I think Elon is just an awkward person in general, but I’m not buying into the stats quo hype that he’s some neo-fascist, Hitler sympathizer. That’s just my opinion. You’re welcome to believe what you want too 👍

Yea agreed, but not Lemmy or Mastodon. Or, really anything with ActivityPub as these places are an echo chamber filled with trigger happy jannies who will ban you from a community if you have a differing of opinion to their groupthink.

Le bad

Nice

I mean, one was always for-profit and didn’t try to hide it. WPE is within the rights to do that. Meanwhile, Matt preaches open-source while acting like a manchild and showing just how controlled it all is by him alone. The only real brand being tarnished is WordPress. I’ve seen more people say their next site will be with a different CMS. Sad.

Yea ok automattic employee

Ah thanks, that does appear to be the case.

Of all the students in the world, they pick ones from a “Turkish high school”. Any clear indication why there of all places when conducted by a US university?

xcancel.com ftw

That’s fucked up

Can’t believe I wasted brainspace reading that garbage

Sadly, a lot of the QAnon types tried to co-opt the Libertarian party in the US due to being disassociated from the GOP. But those QAnon incels couldn’t be anymore non-Libertarian.

Libertarians used to be made up of people who supported bodily autonomy, legalization of various drugs, reduced government powers, etc. But have lately been infiltrated by outcasted Republicans.

That’s what those on the Left would have you believe. Since anything remotely outside their party’s status quo is ignorantly called right wing. But there are multiple iterations of Libertarianism, which themselves fall within a left/right dichotomy. For example, there is Libertarian Socialism, who’s values pull largely from the Left. Then you have the more right-leaning Anarcho Capitalist. But what these varying flavors of Libertarianism have in common is mostly all are anti-state and centrist.
