Email has been a decentralized federated system from the start, though I’m not aware of any community I’d trust to be a more privacy-respecting host than the available commercial offerings.

Our legal entity is in Sweden, where the law does not allow for any government to force us to spy on our users.

You’ll agree that Proton doing better would require them to move to a different country, right?

Also Mullvad doesn’t offer email accounts, does it? Seems that they couldn’t have a ‘no user data’ policy if they did since the emails would be exactly that.

You don’t have only those two choices. Be brave and support non-fire even if a majority isn’t yet. Be part of the solution and don’t believe the lies that better options aren’t real.

the LNT model isn’t actually used there at all.

But it is in use at plants in the US as it’s built in right from planning before construction even begins, because LNT has thoroughly influenced legal and regulatory requirements.

It’s less-lethal, not nonlethal. Even blanks can be deadly. A gun should only be pointed at something you’re willing to destroy.

Cops are not held to as high of standards as everyone else. This should not come as a great revelation.

If you go through a defensive carry class you’d almost certainly be discouraged from doing that by the instructor for multiple reasons:

First is that all ammo can be lethal, even blanks. So if you’re not willing to kill to protect your own life, that may cause it anyway. On the flip side, a prosecutor will argue that if lethal ammunition wasn’t required, then use of a gun wasn’t necessary and you’ve not only broken firearm discharge laws (in place where most people live), but are also guilty of assault with a weapon with intent to kill or maim.

Firing a gun in self-defense is only warranted if nonlethal means are insufficient. If you try using less-lethal ammo and it doesn’t stop your attacker, you’re killed or seriously injured. If you try using less-lethal ammo and it does stop your attacker, you’re still screwed by the legal system (possibly except under some “stand your ground” laws).

Because you shouldn’t use a gun unless deadly force is warranted.

Firstly, you should say please when you’re asking for something.

The claim was made as if they know exactly the materials the thugs’ gaiters are made of. Unless they are an insider of that group, it’s way too presumptuous.

Common natural or synthetic fabrics aren’t as effective at blocking modern facial recognition as anyone might assume.

Here’s a couple examples of someone putting in a bit of effort to actually test both common and purpose-built products against facial recognition.

By listing a schedule starting at one time, but expecting the actual start to be earlier they’re communicating an inaccurate schedule.

Could you imagine prescribing one dose but expecting another? Billing one amount but expecting a premium on top of that?

But of course if they didn’t have guns everything would be fine.

VPN isn’t the only or best solution for this. Alternatives include TOR, proxies, etc.

There are multiple types, but that looks like a press brake. If you haven’t seen one in action, you might enjoy searching up a video of someone using one to make something.

But if that’s the extent of the approach you’d still be giving the same information to your VPN provider.

Most people would be better off just making sure all of their traffic uses TLS. If you also need to obscure your address from your destination’s host, then combine the two protections.

You shouldn’t need to pay for a VPN to prevent your ISP from seeing whether your torrent is public-domain or not if you’re using TLS.

👍 I agree with that and personally use Plasma currently, though have mained gnome in the past.

Pinning the version of one package doesn’t constitute “micromanage every little piece of software independentlly”.

No need to get hyperbolic.

If you’re not willing to take even a small action to customize your system, then you should just take what you get and don’t throw a fit.

Agreed. I’ve made a day trip to the neighboring state to buy a used car from a CL listing, but I probably wouldn’t travel to the other side of the country for it.

Similarly, for many things I wouldn’t travel more than an hour to get them.

The distance radius really needs to be adjustable per search to be useful outside of densely populated areas.

It seems like on CL the city labels are mostly for human readable convenience and behind the scenes it’s by distance. You can set a distance from any point:

One thing I would find valuable is mechanisms to dissuade the listings with obviously false prices. So many things on CL that aren’t really free or $1.

My use of eBay is closer to my use of Craigslist instead of being like an auction. I don’t like to wait for the long bidding windows used online. I also don’t like haggling on prices. In this case, people post what they’re selling, and if I decide to buy it a third party payment platform is used to transfer funds.

The differences are that CL is usually items I pick up personally instead of being shipped (but not always), and some CL sellers only accept cash. I have also picked up eBay purchases locally.
