They’d come up with a conspiracy theory.

Seems cool. Thiccc though.

Any ideas on price?

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but most people can lookup most other people’s addresses in the US for free (or cheaply) on websites like whitepages.com. Even without that, if someone is very determined, they can visit the record office for the area on get public info on you, which also likely includes address.

What’s the benefit of paying such a premium for an anonymous delivery if your address is likely already available?

The only thing I can think of is if buying something sketchy, but I’m genuinely curious here.

csm10495,
@csm10495@sh.itjust.works avatar

It’s public knowledge. If they want to know where you personally live, they could look it up via the ways I previously mentioned.

Heck, even if you never visit their sites, they could easily get big lists of names and addresses that may include you: all legally.

Any attempt at fighting that is likely not to be fruitful. It’s basically security by obscurity, you’re trying to complicate it via one way, but they can just go another (more obvious) way if they wanted.

Ah. Then just buy a gift card in cash from CVS, etc. Then use it on an alternative account and delivered to one of those pickup boxes.

Still sketch though lol.

Cool looking app. I wish it was available on Google Play for people not familiar with third party app downloads.

csm10495,
@csm10495@sh.itjust.works avatar

Understood. I just think it could spread and be enjoyed by lots more via that path. Of course, it’s all up to the devs.

And even if it was: it goes to his personal court costs.

I actually don’t care here lol. It scares me when it makes noise but I just play with my phone anyways.

I wouldn’t condone vandalism or anything like that here.

gotta get a new printer

Greentings As youve seen from the the title, i want to get a new printer as a present for my parents. Sadly they are still windows peasants and my mom somehow thinks that the HP printer on her desk has been a good financial investment, even though it has costed us more than 300 bucks in ink over the past 2 years....

I’ll cast a vote for checking the local Facebook marketplace or craigslist for a deal on a good laser printer.

How do we know that these solutions are more private than Discord?

Even if open source, how do we know the compiled version wasn’t altered?

Sure but how do you know those encrypted requests don’t contain personal or unexpected information?

A lot of compilers have things like timestamps in the finished product that could mess with hashes. I guess hashing the rest of it could work if hashes for non static regions are given.

Major Asset Seizure Likely as Trump Can't Afford Bond for NY Fraud Case (www.commondreams.org)

Less than a month after New York Attorney General Letitia James said she would be willing to seize former Republican President Donald Trump’s assets if he is unable to pay the $464 million required by last month’s judgment in his civil fraud case, Trump’s lawyers disclosed in court filings Monday that he had failed to...

A lot of the comments here are straight up nuts. Do what you do at home. If that’s a VPN, go for it. If you rawdog it, whatevs.

Https is on almost everything at this point, so just be smart like normal.

I doubt anyone cares enough to bug you that much.

I remember these from other EU countries as well. Seems reasonable enough.

If making payments in crypto back to FIAT was free it would be more popular. For me it’s mostly useless since the fee to spend crypto is more than the (often free) fee for using my credit card.

New needs to be better and cheaper to be picked up.

After reading my own post over it sounds like a weird erotic ‘personals ad’.

The usb port is really close to a requirement. I use a yubikey for work often, and liked having it easily press-able. I don’t really have another usb port within arms reach of the keyboard/mouse.

I guess I could add a switch somewhere but it would be kind of ugly on my desk. Still: Thanks for the suggestion.

Fair enough. If all else fails, I’ll try something similar.

I’m completely fine with buying one and doing random swaps… but man its tough to search to find exactly what I’m after.

The answers here are all well and good, but show how using Linux isn’t as user friendly. Regular folks could care less about what filesystem they have. Heck even having a specific window manager vs another can seem farfetched.

What games do you recommend for my girlfriend?

My girlfriend has never really gamed. But she’s now forced to move less than she would like to (health problem) and she’s getting bored. I was thinking of introducing her to a game or two that we could play together. She’s not the real action game type, and seeing as she has no experience with controller/mouse and keyboard...

Overcooked could be fun and easy to get into.

I wouldn’t do this since I don’t want to be even more tech support for people I know.

My mom has used windows for as long as she has had a computer and still doesn’t know what the start button or the windows key are.

I’ve explained it millions of times.

I’m not signing up for more of that than we need.

Reminds me of the US swapping to the metric system.

Short to mid term would be miserable and confusing for people. Long term would probably work out better. Will it happen: never.
