How is that different from mutual TLS authentication?
Edit: It seems like OPAQUE just initiates mutual TLS authentication after the TLS session has already been negotiated with PKI. So it basically just allows websites to design their own login page instead of the one designed by the web browser.
My biggest concern is that everyone will eventually be forced by societal and institutional expectations; for now people can easily choose not to wear them, but if/when your employer requires it for work or if/when the only way to talk to your friends is by using it, then you won’t have much of a choice.
For example, Zoom has very shady ties with the Chinese government (and several reports say that they’ve used it to surveil and censor people), yet many schools and workplaces required it (and many still do now). You could refuse to install/use it, but then you’d lose your job or fail your classes. It’s a similar story for TikTok, Discord, and Facebook before that.
I really like that bluetooth devices can still work at distances farther than a typical cable would allow. I have a decently-sized studio apartment and I can see my computer screen from most places. It’s nice to continue watching a video as I move around the apartment to clean, get up to stretch, play with my cat, etc.
You could probably get wired headphones that long, but then you’d be dealing with that giant cable all the time. Or you’d have to constantly swap cables and interrupt the audio during that time. My AirPods work reliably from 15ft away. I can’t argue with that convenience.
While I agree that you can’t diagnose others without formal training, if OP’s parents are narcissists, asking them to talk to a medical professional would likely blow up in OP’s face. Also, any reputable psychiatrist or psychologist will refuse to diagnose someone else based on second-hand information.
The most such a person (or anyone in a counselling position, like a school guidance counsellor) could do is help OP cope with their situation. That would likely be helpful, but it should be clear that most of the changes would need to come from within OP.
Now I want to start calling people "narse"s with no context.
I can appreciate the appeal of physical copies, but if it’s hindering your enjoyment then why not just listen to digital copies? The vinyl records are probably being scribed from a digital version, anyway.
Meh, it’s a hobby. Lots of people talk about their hobbies.
Still a funny comic, though.
That’s what my “friend” did. Reddit banned every account he used on his phone at once, but with a different IP, desktop browser, and cookie isolation, they haven’t noticed so far. He might sound like some professional troll, but he was actually banned for a stupid reason.
Why rely on (de)compression tools to provide realtime progress, multi-threading, and buffering, when you can put a pipe IO viewer (like pv or mbuffer) between tar -c and gzip? It’s also nice to use any compression algorithm.
There’s a “Chat” view, although I’m not sure exactly what it does.
I don’t care about the n word specifically, but I think it’s a good example of something that can be positive or negative depending on the context. There was a similar post about the q word. My concern is more generally about limiting what people can do with their own hardware.
Your style of argument has been used to argue against many different kinds of personal rights and freedoms that most people now recognize as important. It seems that the slur filter was removed a little while ago, but my point still stands.
What role do you think Lemmy developers should have in limiting the way that private instances can be used?
For example, (IIRC) you can’t say the n word on any unmodified Lemmy instance—even one that you host yourself. I wonder what other such limitations are currently in place or may be added in the future. Can any open source contributor add such a limitation?
Edit: Regardless of whether you think such limitations are appropriate, I think it’s an important question. I also expressed this comment in a neutral manner.
You know how some companies make vibrating dildos? Twitter should do that.
I’d also like to add that there are only a few days each year when it’s allowed; loud vehicles are not a great example because they annoy people year-round.
For July 4, yeah. But doing it at midnight on New Years is important to a lot of people.
I like setting them off at my own pace. Lighting the fuse and running away is half the fun.
What I don’t get is people who only buy a few 100+ shell batteries. At that point you’re better off gong to a show.
Giving permission by saying yes to a “would you mind” question is the hill I die on. Usually I say “I would not mind” but if I’m feeling frisky I’ll say no and watch their brain melt.
