Privacy@lemmy.ml•How can I save my money in crypto privately and safe?English
61·12 days agoPeople don’t like crypto around here - me neither, the only thing I know about crypto privacy is that samurai-thing whose owner was arrested on bogus claims of money laundering

Open Source@lemmy.ml•how do you browse and collect art digitally?English
1·24 days agoI tried the link in another browser that is not logged on lemmy and the links were there… the blog name is “apocalyptic head” and the tag “just art”, so I presume they are censoring blogspot

2·24 days agoA mix of artstation, instagram and devianart profiles for modern artists, a few with their own personal sites, and online galleries and art wiki for older artists… I have thousands of random art I liked saved on my HDD, and I used to share them randomly on this blog (which was a backup of a Facebook page but included content that got zucked) https://apocalyptichead.blogspot.com/search/label/%23 Just Art
(and here there’s a list of the artists I had posted so far https://apocalyptichead.blogspot.com/p/art.html - but I had thousands more pictures to post before dropping Facebook and that Google blog)

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•the one where ross says a slurEnglish
311·24 days agoI don’t think I watched the blackface episode, but if it was an accident that caused a misunderstanding (basic comedy trope) the joke was on people being over sensitive and raging without knowing and/or purposely ignoring context of a situation (I could as easily say “if you want to do something racist, just claim it was a dark elf”). What was being criticized there became the norm, and the consequences are in this thread - people can’t say the name of that Agatha Christie’s work in the comments, nor you can have a dark elf in Community, because context doesn’t matter.
editing a day later: This was a half-assed argument, the shows did it just because it was funny. In all the cases people jumped to conclusions that were completely fair, people should be shooed for doing what the main characters were doing, but it was funny because it wasn’t on purpose, they got in a bad situation by mistake. However, the critique on this kinda of humor, and also satires and parodies that humorously references problematic stuff, because “offensive” is absolute value, is what led to “people can’t say the name of that Agatha Christie’s work in the comments, nor you can have a dark elf in Community”.

Comic Strips@lemmy.world•the one where ross says a slurEnglish
811·25 days agoThat flag episode the joke was that everything he was doing was taken the wrong way. He had accidentally set on fire a flag that was behind him and tried to put out the fire, then someone shouts “Hey, there’s a guy stomping the Puerto Rican flag!” and he is chased by a mob…
It’s like that Monk episode where he has to shake hands with a lot of people from a group and the last one is black, and right after shaking hands with the black person he cleans his hands with rubbing alcohol, so everyone thinks he is racist and everything he does in the episode just makes him look even worse - because it was taken out of context (he is a germophobe, he cleans his hands with rubbing alcohol after touching anything and anyone).

163·25 days agoWhat’s wrong with the last one? Seems like a pretty standard critique of “science” as evil destroying humanity. In Brave New World they had reservations for the savages who still had religious beliefs, and it was a touristic attraction.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Need a solid daily driver browser that’s good for most thingsEnglish
3·26 days agoOh, before “setting in”, test out all the sites you need to use regularly, because of its hardened fingerprinting protection webgl and webgpu are disable, also canvas and other scripts, and I believe they completely stripped the browser DRM checks, so some streaming services won’t work as well.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Need a solid daily driver browser that’s good for most thingsEnglish
4·26 days agoIt needs a bit of fine tuning for daily use, but it’s nothing cryptic: If you don’t want to save all cookies, then you gotta add exception to sites you want to stay connected to (unless you are ok with having to login every time you enter a site). I think saving history is disabled by default, and this is quite inconvenient. You also gotta allow saving passwords if you want the browser to have them.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Proton has ties to Israel. What's a safe alternative?English
2·26 days agoI’m here saying Proton has servers in 127 countries and they are widely different, so how do you decide to which ones they are “tied” (protip: They are tied to none, getting an exit node in a country benefit users from the countries next to it, and it also opens that country’s geolocked content to the world). Get a brain.





offline, and yeah mostly redundant stuff… sorry, I thought you wanted a backup just to make the OS change but I think I read you wrong.
