I’m not sure, maybe if you explain exactly what your trying to do and what your looking for I might be able to help further. My thought was maybe there’s a software or plugin that can do whatever you’re trying to do, but I can’t know without more information.
Yeah, someone else mentioned that gold was better for physical savings as well. I’ll definitely keep that in mind.
I think it’s so interesting to see how we can live without the overbearing industries that seem to be facts of life. It’s so easy to forget that the people of the past that didn’t have these systems were able to get by just fine, and they were just as capable as we are now. They didn’t have special advantages that allowed them to live their ways of life, in many ways they had less advantages, but humans are incredible creatures and we don’t need an abundance of simplicity and convenience in order to exist. Often times those systems of convenience just end up becoming systems of control.
Unfortunately no, sorry
I’m not entirely familiar with this field but I took a look at there website and some other stuff online. It seems like they are a middle man between the viewers paying on the platform you stream on and you getting the payment. I’ve heard some pretty awful things about companies like that, so I would definitely be wary. I looked through their privacy policy and here’s what they claim to “generally” collect.
Most of that seems fairly reasonable, it doesn’t seem too excessive. I’m not sure what a CPF is but it seems to be a Brazilian thing. According to one user on reddit it’s an identification thing similar to social security but not nearly as harmful if someone gets a hold of it. Supposedly the worst they could do is sign you up for a political party or something.
I also looked at there github page and it’s definitely closed source, and only 7 people follow the repository so either not many people work on it or I found the wrong repository.
Again I’m not super familiar with this or the industry of streaming (which I assume is what you are doing based on the description of what the service is), but from what I’ve found I would recommend that you try to find something else that can offer what you’re looking for, preferably open source, and if that doesn’t exist then this seems like it might not be a terrible option.
If you do go with this I would recommend going through their privacy policy more thoroughly than I did, and also after you use it for a while request a copy of your data. If you discover that you don’t like how much they have on you then stop using them and look for something else.
Hope that helps
Wow thanks, that’s all super helpful!
Yeah sorry, and on that second part I’m not sure. I mean the freedom loving part of me thinks that there’s no way the government should be able to audit you just cause you have a physical safe with money in it, but maybe they do I don’t know
Thanks I’ll check that out
Thanks :)
Yes exactly
Oh sorry, I misread your question, yeah I’m wary of both. I’m ok with monero because I only plan to use it as an anonymous payment medium, not financial storage. It only gets to hold enough money for spending purposes and in small quantities at a time
It’s not that I’m wary of crypto for any privacy reasons it’s just that for my regular life I don’t want all my money held in an asset that can fluctuate in price wildly. That’s perfectly fine in an investment context but have all of my money in that isn’t ideal. And as for not trusting stable coins, that’s mainly because of all the scams. Safemoon would be a prime example but there are many more. I know there are probably some that seem like they would be fine but I’m just not willing to trust any crypto to hold all of my money long term
That’s not necessarily true, my last job would give out physical checks if you didn’t have direct deposit setup, and I could cash them out at my local grocery store without a fee because I didn’t get paid much.
As for a house as far as I know you only need a bank if your getting a mortgage. If you buy it outright then you don’t need them. It’s a tall order I know but I was already planning on attempting that route because I don’t like credit.
This defeatist mindset is exactly what I was finding everywhere else, and most of the time I think it’s just invalid. I know it’s a lot of work and would need to take advantage of niche systems but I really don’t think it’s impossible or even infeasible
Ohhh, that’s clever and really cool!
What’s that character you use for “th”?
I’m pretty sure services like EasyOptOuts automate that process
Couldn’t you avoid ICANN altogether by making a domain on tor? I’m only just now learning how all this works but from what I can tell tor is disconnected from all the ICANN stuff
Oh yeah I forgot about that. I wonder if there’s some way of completely self hosting a domain to then be used for email. My first thought would be an onion website or maybe I2p, that then somehow connects to the rest of the internet to be able to be used like a normal email. Not sure if that exists but that would probably be the ultimate free and private setup.
I’ve really been considering that, but from what I’ve heard you can’t make a domain completely anonymously. I could be wrong because I haven’t researched it enough, but if there is a way to make a domain completely anonymously by all means let me know, because that would pretty much be the solution.
Even if at some point in my life I can’t afford the electricity bill for the server hosting my domain, if I can manage an upfront investment then I could get solar and make an entirely self sustained system. This is drastic of course but it’s nice to theoretically have the option.
I’m not completely sure how it is on proton, but on tuta you can only have one free email address at a time. So if you make more then one on a premium account and then stop paying, eventually your other emails will be disabled. I’m not sure if they just get deactivated until you resubscribe or if they get completely deleted, but either way for critical services that’s a big issue.
Right but can you give more details? Like are you actually streaming? I only assumed you were based on what I read about livepix. If so what platform are you using? How exactly does the thing show up that has your name? Is there a way you could change it to a username instead of an actual name, or are you also trying to hide the username.
Like I said I’m not familiar with streaming, so I need a lot more details to understand what your trying to do and how livepix fits into that equation. I’m trying to help you but I can’t do that based on that one vague question.
