It’s a bit different because of the stated values though.

Raspberry pi’s foundation is focused on making computers available broadly, while this new organization is focused on making privacy widely accessible.

While both can be commercialized, the pi’s foundation has no fundamental problems with selling out privacy or focusing on money to achieve those goals. Proton would have a much harder time arguing that profiting from sale.of private data supports privacy.

This is relevant because it means even if the remaining shares end up on the stock market, the foundation can use its majority ownership to veto any privacy concerns.

Time will tell. I could also have missed something

A company with a public offering basically cannot refuse a large enough buyout because with a public offering comes a financial responsibility to the shareholders. Public stock is a contract saying give me money and I’ll do my best to make you money back, and it’s very legally binding.

You can avoid this by never going public, but that also means you basically don’t get big investors for expanding what you can offer. A public offering involves losing some of your rights as owner for cash.

When the legal goal becomes “money above all else”, it is hard to justify NOT selling all the data and violating the trust of your customers for money, customer loyalty has to be monetizable and also worth more.

Proton has given a majority share to a nonprofit with a legal requirement to uphold the current values, not make money. This means that the remaining ownership can be sold to whoever, the only way anything gets done is if this foundation agrees. It prevents everything associated with a legal financial responsibility to make money, but still allows the business to do business things and make money, which seems to be proton’s founder’s belief, that the software should be sold to be sustainable.

Seems solid.

It doesn’t change a ton, but the point was basically them putting their money where their mouth is and saying “now we can’t sell out like everything else.”

If you liked them before, this is great. It means google or whoever literally can’t buy them out, it’s not about the money. If you were iffy already because they’re not FOSS or whatever other reason, this doesn’t change that, either, for better or worse

Convert to PDF before submitting a resume. PDFs aren’t vulnerable to that kind of version difference messing things up.

Its definitely possible some other word processor would mess up the PDF conversion, but moving the formatting issues to before you submit anything lets you fully control the problem.

The bug report also listed mitigation steps including turning off discovery, so it seems to me that if you enable the insecure method, you can just leave discovery off by default, and manually turn it on briefly to pair a new device, then tirn discovery back off.

Nah a fortnight is two weeks.

It means “yeah”

No, they mean the customization of the card was free.

Raw links get downvotes because it lets indexers find sites much easier, and helps get takedowns. I dunno that that’s what happened but when I saw your link I went “hey, do it properly”.

Lemmy isn’t a big as Reddit though, dunno if that’s really something we gotta worry about.

Offloading them isn’t the same. It’s about the screen clutter, not the storage space, and offloading an app leaves the icon. Offloading does its job pretty seamlessly, but that’s a negative when I want to feel like I’ve had a clean start.

Dunno enough about ipv6, wouldn’t my ISP still need to allow it?

That’s my understanding, and there’s no option in their locked-up router to enable it, for ipv6 either.

I used a pi 3 to host a Foundry server (TTRPG software).

I use Docker to simplify things, since I run two instances of it. Simple port forwarding setup within the docker container. the main reason I used a pi instead of my computer is so my players could access their dnd stuff all the time.

I stopped because I switched ISPs and they won’t let me port-forward. My vpn supports it but the latency isn’t ideal. I host the same thing through a cheap server now.

If you can keep tabs on other people, I like to get hotels, watch someone scramble to match me (trading at a loss to get a set, mortgaging everything else, etc) so they don’t hemorrhage money to me, then downgrading to houses just before they cross me.

Only actually pulled this off a few times, but the pain in their voice as they were forced to sell their hotel, just barely, to pay rent, but had to downgrade straight to nothing, and they know I have all the houses now, that’s even sweeter than just getting the houses in the first place.

Once someone teased me a property giving me a second set, so they’d have a first, only for me to do this to them after getting lucky and getting the browns to hoard houses on. Quick game, no one was happy.

Sidenote: winner picks up is a role in my household. Gives the losers a way to go “ha ha” and helps keeps bad feelings at the game table and not afterwards.

No worries. Its an interesting study, and Mozilla does good work.

There’s a link to the actual report in the article, which has further links to the documents used in the survey.

To be specific, this wasn’t a traditional questionnaire, they made limited-functionality desktop environments and had people try out different options.

The link in the article.

No. Mozilla is a nonprofit that includes Firefox, but is not Firefox.

Bias is one of the first things anyone learns in statistics, they didn’t just poll Firefox users to figure out who likes browser choice. The article says who they polled.

Yeah I do that. There’s no like, lag difference, the crap I get rid of is apps I don’t use and have forgotten about.

I don’t install any app until I need it, with this restart. That way any app that gets on my new phone is there for a reason.

Once in a while I do this to my current phone, too. Works great, I’ve done it like a dozen times.

See, while I don’t like the invasiveness of it, that’s also their business model. If they put it behind a subscription instead, it wouldn’t be right to say “this information is important and needs to be available, stop charging for it,” when charging for it is part of why they provide it. Private companies have a right to not do business with those that won’t pay for their services, even if that payment is your data.

Europeans (and everyone, morally) have a right to privacy that conflicts with the method of payment. This website resolved that, if it can’t get paid in it’s chosen form, it won’t provide its service. That’s fine. I don’t support this decision, but it’s not

If this information is vital to the public, that’s a separate issue entirely, and it needs to be available in some form that isn’t sold. We can’t rely on a private entity not employed by a government to do this of its own free will.

In the US, it depends on motor size and a few other things. Also varies by state. But that’s often true.
