First of all I just want to say that I completely agree with all of the technical things you talked about in his question but I think you kind of miss his question.

OP doesn’t wanna be on SS7 (the thing that gives you your phone number), neither do I. I’ve just come to the conclusion that when it comes to infrastructure and paying for your goods SS7 is the only realistic option I have.

There is no distributed communication network anyone can just connect to. And the dream of leaving WiFi access points open for free (or for some kinda crypto-pay, e.g SkyNet) is just a dream, individuals have to invest in it and nobody wants to or take responsibility for it.

Here are some rules:

1. Somebody* has to build the radios and computers that our phones connect to and has to build them all over the world (*doesn’t have to be an individual, could be a company or government)
2. You gotta pay to use it (whether it’s with a billing account where they have your full name and house address, or crypto)
3. It’s gotta be the easiest option

If we can come with a solution that fits these rules we can do away with the SS7 cellular protocol and have a truly anonymous network.

Nix and home-manager, those are the only 2 I have off the top of my head.

Same tbh idk if it’s the community or the app for me

Discreet math, Calculus, and Physics change the way I think about code

Forget neovim, try using ED

Id pay to watch that

Convention over configuration feels like such a fight when I’m trying to configure something

This “Amazon’s Choice” is actually really valid, I’ve had mine for a few years and they perform great

I mean if it’s just a private server for just the people he knows then I don’t get why this would be a concern, but if it is to mitigate family drama then rocket chat definitely has end-to-end encryption https://docs.rocket.chat/use-rocket.chat/workspace-administration/settings/e2e-encryption

Rocket chat is like slack but FOSS… haven’t tried it myself but it could be something

We’ll know if he ever finds some funny way to say he’s using Windows… that or he’s genuine and it’s a click bait title, didn’t watch it ¯⁠\⁠_⁠(⁠ツ⁠)⁠_⁠/⁠¯

How expensive can “reputable” be. I got danhab99.xyz for like ¯⁠\⁠(⁠°⁠_⁠o⁠)⁠/⁠¯ $20/year?? Who cares

Now consider that you remember it. You don’t need to check, you remember the things that made that memory funny.

I’m only 25 and it feels like so many of the things I have are just memories. It feels like my life is slowly coming to a close and I don’t know if the future is even there.

And you know what the worst part is? I don’t really remember much anyways.

My 20 year old cat died and all I can do is remember him and look at pictures. I don’t want to have to remember things just to keep them… I’m just not reliable enough.

I thought the whole point of android is to be open source. We shouldn’t let Google own it

Unless someone wants to disagree with me

All the code is opensource and no one has ever raised a privacy alarm in a merged pull request. There’s nothing to fear
