Does anyone have this picture without the text? Don’t get me wrong, it’s pretty funny with the toot, but I feel like it would also be funny without.

You can lock your password database with a key file (this is a standard feature in keepassxc) and transfer the key file once between devices via sneakernet (microsd or usb drive). That way even if someone intercepts your database file, AND knows your password, it is still virtually impossible to crack. Should be a good enough solution, unless you are quantum-tier paranoid
Marginally better than using discord itself as your password manager (also a true story!)
If you’re on Linux and you like minimalism, pass is also a great option
I mean he’s not wrong about paper being more secure than password manager (provided you have good physical security and trust the people you live with)
I once ended up locked out of a bunch of accounts because my phone with the authenticator app died. Oof.
Nowadays I use a TOTP dongle instead of an app and write down all of the keys in a paper notebook. Never again!
Okay, I just tested Tor on windows, and it shows a bunch of microsoft fonts that my linux box doesn’t have.
But what I did notice is that the fingerprint changed on my linux box after a full restart of tor browser. So I guess their approach is to randomize fingerprints between sessions, rather then to keep everyone’s fingerprint the same?
how much of the internet is unusable with js disabled
Quite a lot actually. A lot of articles / blogs / news sites are actually more usable without javascript than with, because none of the annoying popups and shit can load. I suggest having two browser profiles: one with javascript enabled by default, and one with javascript disabled. So for things like online shopping, you’d open the js profile. And for things where you expect to do a lot of reading, use the nojs profile. Ublock origin also lets you temporarily enable/disable js for a particular website pretty easily.
This is what I though as well, but brave on stock windows doesn’t show any noto fonts. Haven’t tested tor browser on windows yet tho, so idk
I’m running Brave and Librewolf from flatpak. Nope, it doesn’t help, at least with default sandbox settings.
I’m slowly starting to agree with @ssm that safeguarding against fingerprinting is an exercise in futility though…QubesOS sounds like something that might help though, since it makes it easy to browse from a virtual machine with fonts and other settings that may be leaked set to the most bog-standard defaults.
On a related note, disabling javascript can actually improve your user experience quite a lot for certain types of tasks. A lot of news/blogs/article-style websites nowadays are actually more usable without javascript, because you don’t have to waste time closing all of the ads and cookie popups. I have a separate browser profile with js disabled and use it quite a lot.
For a while I had a low-power server for my personal things that stayed on all the time, and a more powerful computer that hosted a minecraft server. As the player count dwindled, I decided to make the minecraft server automatically shut down at midnight, and wake up at 8 in the morning using rtcwake
. And eventually I disabled the rtcwake thing entirely, and made the smaller server run a webui that could wake up the minecraft server using wake-on-lan. So if anyone wanted to play, they would first have to remotely turn on the server through a web page. This was all password-protected ofcourse.
Also, no, I don’t use a UPS. I’ve never seen anyone use a UPS in the country where I live, and I don’t think I’ve experienced a power outtage in like 4 years. Whether or not you need a UPS seems to be largely dependent on where you live.
I’ve heard stories of webdevs adding technical-looking error popups on their website asking the client to pay. Something like ERROR 402 PAYMENT REQUIRED: Database connection failed due to insufficient funds.
Apparently it works pretty well
idk man ipv4 NAT sounds like the “complicated bloat” to me.
Thanks, will take a look when I have time
No, it’s an edit. I linked the original in the post text. If you can’t access it for some reason, here’s a transcript:

Agreed. Though I wonder if ipv6 will ever displace ipv4 in things like virtual networks (docker, vpn, etc.) where there’s no need for a bigger address space
Python is so great (half-sarcasm) that a trailing comma on its own constitutes a tuple (immutable list):
mytuple = 4,
assert len(mytuple) == 1
assert mytuple[0] == 4
yes, it’s that.
