$20… Wait… why do I keep doing this for free?

Shadow socks? Ssh?

tell me.how

Also fuck your school board’s it

His son just probably has a laptop and boots using a usb into linux. All of these christian goodie-do-gooders are going to create a nation of hackers.

I don’t like her, but you have to admit that’s hysterical.

i wonder if they are a honeypot too

If you use a free tier VPN, which doesn’t allow torrenting, then connect tor to it, then connect another non-tor encrypted connection to that (such as a different VPN), if you torrent from the different VPN (an encrypted VPN stream that passes through Proton), they still detect torrenting. This suggests advanced DPI. What no log VPN needs DPI?

They also have dark design elements including logs you have to turn off by default.

Proton also does aggressive scanning of certain things users do and will shut down accounts based on that. The problem is what privacy focused company scans user stuff like that?

They also log multiple browser metrics when signing up or at least access them, such as audio context fingerprints. Is that really important for the sign up process?

It wasn’t bad they gave up info to jail an activist, it was bad they said in their marketing materials they couldnt and didnt do that.

ProtonVPN also for many years never accepted Monero and their email didn’t as well. So they care about privacy, but won’t accept the privacy crypto? There wasn’t a rational explanation for it, unless they are a honeypot. There were third parties who could have accepted the funds. The whole thing was unusual. It was incredibly suspicious. If you care about privacy so much, why not accept Monero for your email services? This is the most damning part of this. If they are a honeypot, it makes sense, if they aren’t it’s a head scratcher.

It could be a coincidence? Possibly? But probably it isn’t. Everyone who loves privacy loves XMR. They don’t like XMR. You know who hates XMR? Governments. And so if someone is saying “I love privacy” and has numerous complex programs released, but then says XMR is too hard to accept, it should indicate something is odd.

It’s possible it’s a coincidence.

The idea that scientists, especially hard scientists, have a certain look is something many think… so despite literally everyone on lemmy downvoting me, i still think it’s important to notice when these things coincidentally happen or don’t coincidentally happen

However you are saying SMBC is very tolerant and unbiased and I believe you. I was’t saying it was sexism, I was just noticing it. But I understand the defensive reaction: if the comic creator is generally accepting of many people’s identitites then they are less likely to have done this with any sort of biased intent and the comic creator is probably cool and not prejudiced.

A lot of gay people are financially kind to people they have had sex with. I am not saying that’s relevant in this situation.

There’s another person who Theil “randomly” put a lot of money and clout behind too.

I guess it’s possible it’s not related to sex both times? But it seems really random if it’s not related to sex.

Pete gave the kind safe answer.

Looks like both the big political parties offer people opprtunities to fuck their way up to the top.

No, it’s shorter and more masculine… since more masculine people do hard science like physics while even a regular mom who is a little bit smart could learn biology. (I don’t think this.) I am just pointing it out, it probably wasn’t done with intentiinal sexism.

Youre right. And… Do you think DEI becoming a buzzword in the Republican culture war makes it more or less likely there will be more of those lawsuits?

But yes, at the end of the day, whatever the reason it just means more racism, because bias is often hard to prove and you often can’t prove that bias accounts for a lack of advancement, you just feel it, and bias can make getting ahead so much harder in so many ways.

I think Republicans especially hated DEI because it could include trans and LGBT people. The existence of trans people means their made up god is fake, because their fantasy book says Adam and Eve, not Adam Eve and They/Them. If trans people are real, then the magical fantasy book is a lie, and then they’ve been lied to and fooled and their magic jebus bread didnt really have magical powers and they can’t possibly admit to that, so here we are.

Plus it helps us realize that since they have more masculine haircuts they are even smarter, right?

Because it wouldn’t make sense for the initial female to look the same and still be a physicist, right?

Just pointing out that bias may also be affecting the cartoon too, even if not maliciously intended

There is a single best answer. 40 hours of work is too much given other responsibilities and compankes should be required to pay overtime when someone works over 32 hours.

Women in the workforce means most workers don’t have a fulltime childcare assistant cook cleaner at home anymore and the hours per week at work has not adjusted accordingly.

This doesn’t preclude policy decisions made by elite politicians funded by the wealthy from being designed to keep lower classes too exhausted to politically mobilize or rise up the caste or class system.

The OT rules are governed at a national level and incentiving certain hourly amounts is policy created by the elites who know exhausted workers have less energy to question their exploitation. Look at wealth inequaluty by country and hours per week worked by the average person.

Corporations don’t think. People do. And elite rich people set policy that the lower classes either accept or rebel against.

In the future there will probably white people suing for racism based on the existence of dei and the courts are now so racist those lawsuits will be allowed because the same territories that fought for slave ownership during rhe civil war have political leverage via republicans

Dei is now a legal liability instead of protecting against lawsuits. Many companies that are laying off people cant justify keeping dei in that environment when they are laying off people that do work that is closely aligned with the business. Laying off a senior programmer but keeping dei seems a bit unfair and since dei could be a liability why keep it?

There was also pressure to hire more black people in business back in covid times and post-covid and companies did that, with data showing it probably impacted other races getting hired. It’s risky for them to keep doing that and likely expensive. Dei was also keeping more data allowing them to get sued to more easily either way. Many employees complained about dei and that it was all for show even when the expense was there.

Its also became synonymous with woke and republicans hate the term. Conpanies only do what the prevailing political winds say so they can fit in with legal compliance enough to keep profiting. They don’t care and are mostly an illusion of a logo with greedy people worshipping money behind the veneer.

Are websites often implementing all creepsjs tequniques? It seems like if standard identifiers were enough they wouldn’t add in more just because minimal benefit relative to extra effort.

Does TLS fingerprinting do more than fingerprint browser type?

Any screen is unique based on manufacturing process. Resolution not unique does not mean canvas fingerprint is not unique. You are wrong. Nothing special does not block canvas fingerprinting attempts.

This is naive and inaccurate because unique screens have unique canvas fingerprinting. Youre giving people bad info.

Totally true

You know how matter changes from solid to liquid to gas at certain points? I believe there are phase changes in ecology and environmental habitability and sometimes things seem fine and suddenly they aren’t.

At the risk of sounding prejudiced and offensive, the norse are a very smart and sexy group of people, so perhaps I am wrong in not accepting your illogical and sexy perspective?

I just think 1 variable of change is not the correct barometer of “how close are we to the ecological abyss?”

I always am open to recommendations.

What are we talking about?
