@useless_idiot So I naturally get worried — turned out, she was attending some lecture. And she's not exactly clueless, I've set up a VPN for her so she can read the real news, not the bullshit they feed us.
Most don't have a slightest clue. A friend of mine who now lives in Spain tells me: "You always paint it black, but others aren't like that, they remain positive, look — they are attending the cafes".
So I had to show her some WW2 footage.

@useless_idiot Yeah, Moscow's huge, bigger than some European states. Considering the density population the way they carry out those drone strikes is nearly surgical — it definitely worked as demonstration that we're vulnerable, but from what I know, few actual people got injured.
People are also mostly clueless — that doesn't feel right, but it contributes to the calm. Hell, my own mother went downtown right on the morning of Prigozhin's mutiny, I call her and she doesn't pick up.

Анна Нетребко подала в суд на Метрополитен-оперу. В марте 2022-го театр разорвал отношения с оперной певицей из-за ее отказа публично осудить действия Путина 

@kravietz I totally get it, when people appeal to court as a last-ditch attempt at saving their ass, but when press does it, they keep up the myth that society here operates under a semblance of law. It does not!

@kravietz
> I intentionally avoid verbs like "sentenced", as the decision had nothing to do with courts
This is what always irks me "we are going to appeal", "if this legislation is passed…" — what lawyers, what legislations. Mercenaries were always illegal and yet, one prominent PMC never leaves the headlines. There is no law in this godforsaken country 😩

@useless_idiot Am I surprised? Not at all 😂

As of recent, Insider is consistent in having everything translated, good job!

@honkwerx
That's not what evil cunt does, real one would sleep with the knights, then kill them, free Arabella, tell her parents she's okay, sleep with Arabella, kill her, sleep with her parents (preferably both), kill them, kill everyone in the nearest town including shopkeepers…
I'm not sure that everything above is possible in the game, but something like that 🤪

@murks
> Seems like an obvious feature, but does it exist?
If it runs uses something external like ffmpeg to remove geotags and other metadata you can just add a filter to that. I know how to do it for Pleroma, but I'm not familiar with photo thingies, I don't even know what Pixelfed is written in TBH 😄

@Fullmetal2255
I've always wondered, at what point Blahaj got hijacked by trans-community, wasn't it originally just an Instagram thing? 🤔

@kirby Anyway, this was the last straw for me, I don't know how the quality could go down to shit that fast, these aren't the cheapest peripherals on the market, they aren't supposed to be replaced every other year. I still have Deathadder 3,5G and I think even Boomslang somewhere — the softer plastic is all bad, but both work perfectly 🤷
I used to hate Logitech, but now it's them for me, well, one of the mice I use is HP branded, but I know it's in fact made by Logi 🤪
@NEETzsche

@kirby I used to be a huge fan of Razer in general and Deathadder mice in particular, but first these two, then Lancehead, for which the didn't sell spare dongles and in which the battery had swollen on me, then Deathadder Elite — which was a very good mouse, way better built than Deathadder Chroma, but in a few years… Doubleclicks on LMK 😩
And I'm not even that much into gaming so this wasn't due to wear.
I did play SC2, but I gave up long ago — it was normal peripheral use.
@NEETzsche

@kirby
Especially for original Blackwidow Chroma — it's a horrible keyboard, I still have somewhere. And it's rodent sibling, Deathadder Chroma — was absolute garbage, it didn't even last for two years for me 🤦
@NEETzsche

@Hawkmoon …and even full disk encryption won't make it secure against 3 letter agencies.
So… I just don't store any sensitive data on my phone😂
And I know that if I lose it, I'd have to change passwords to all accounts I've been using on it — that's it.
As for remote exploits — no, using F-droid or AOSP-based ROM doesn't make you less secure — as code is open, it gets audited by security researchers all the time, if some serious vulnerability gets discovered, it gets fixed in opensource SW too.

@Hawkmoon Experts talk about security all the time, but most users don't even follow security best practices and no amount of security measures built into their phone will make them 100% secure. I know that is I lose my phone, in theory, it would be possible to retrieve all data off it — and it's always best to assume that because it's a matter of how much effort one is willing to put into accessing your data: petty thief doesn't care about it at all, he just wants the device itself…

@Hawkmoon
Well, it is less safe *in theory* but for other reasons — just because you have allowed apps to be installed from one more source, other than Play Store.
It all boils down to whom you trust more, I don't trust my phone's maker so I use an alternative ROM, bootloader of my phone is unlocked — which is a huge security no-no. I also don't really trust Google so my ROM doesn't have Play Store or Play services installed.

@fdroidorg

@Ivan_Ivanovich For me this is how best sleep ends most of the time. I wake up to drink water or use the john and can't fall back asleep 😩
At first, I've thought that urge to check the phone had something to do with it so I no longer do that — doesn't help, I go straight back to bed, but I just don't feel sleepy anymore 🤷
