add keepassxc to the list. I've avoided it for the longest times because I remember the horror that was the OG keepass. this is modern software, minimal footprint (miniscule compared to bitwarden's electron crap), easy to use, the db is one file that's easily syncthing-ed around, browser extensions, etc.

didn't see anyone touching on the most important part, and that is the decisions regarding our data we make now are coming to bite us in the ass five or ten years from now. our chicken brains can't comprehend that, not really. we need a direct feedback loop: hot stove, finger, ouch - no more touching.

up until a decade or two ago, we didn't have the concept of forever in our lives. do stupid shit in school, in uni they don't know about it. fail at one job, the next one doesn't know about it. say something stupid in front of a love interest, the next one's blissfully unaware. in our current paradigm, all of them transgressions are with you, forever.

any and all corporations even adjacent to the advertising/harvesting/mining industries have lost the benefit of doubt, forever. our interaction with them is and should be adversarial from the get go. they should never be in the position to retain any meaningful data points and polluting their ingestion avenues and obscuring activity is mandatory.

edit: the AI example is touching on it.

I’ve got nothing to hide

is a false dychotomy. you're not hiding, you're deciding what to share and that's a huge difference.

I mean, the american idiotic narrative of outraise, outspend, outcapitalist can get bent. when you're faced with such an immense force of vast resources, you don't raise a similar sized force and roll the dice on the outcome - you engage in asymetric warfare.

disperse all that shit in P2P networks with multiple redundancies with no single point of failure. who are they gonna sue, the i2p stack or whatever? fuck those fuckers.

I'd finance something like that with my meager resources, instead of filling some coffers to finance lawyers and whatnot.

disable BD_PROCHOT. msr-tools on linux, Throttlestop on windows.

is there anything more useless than signing online petitions?

there is, either by manually remapping everything using Plasma's keyboard settings or using one of the many Kinto variants.

advice from someone who made the same switch - don't do it. start adapting and relearning. muscle memory is a pain, but it's tameable. you're not going back, there's no point in retaining useless skill.

I tried using bazzite as a media PC and gave up after a couple of days, this isn't even remotely something I want in my household.

try it on fast hardware and make up your own mind. good luck!

p.s.: plasma bigscreen isn't available for public use and kodi and its derivatives should be tossed in the deepest volcanoes we got.

tried three times, either neochat explodes or the messages don't go through. thanks anyway.

yeah I found that but I don't know how to query matrix.org for those settings, no clients I tried can tell me what the settings are. I'm just interested in 1on1 chat where both users are on matrix.org, so federation shouldn't complicate things (?)

so what unlimited cloud storage a la telegram? can you share where that's stated? thanks.
