Not to mention that if you want to type it in somewhere ( like your car for a Spotify account or whatever ) a passphrase like Hunter7-Tower-Ballsy9 is easier to type than some random gibberish with special chars.

Note: codium and codeium are two completely separate products.

Anonimity is keeping your identity private, but not your actions.

Privacy is keeping your actions hidden, but not your identity.

Using a VPN will hide your IP and make you more anonymous online. Using a personal CC to buy the vpn does not compromise that and does not defeat the purpose at all.

Only if your specific account ID is compromised could the personal CC be used against you by identifying you. E.g.: “they” found your bad email in an inbox of somebody who is less privacy conscious and are trying to figure out who festybear69@... is.

It depends on what your use-case/threat model is.

I think bitwarden checks all the boxes. It’s 3.33$ per month for a family plan ( 6 users). I’ve used it for a long time and I’m happy with it.

If you want more privacy you can always self host vault warden and use that. In which case you have full access to the premium features and you just pay the hosting costs.

Bitwarden can be set as the default password manager in browsers. Stores TOTP codes, has a browser plugin, has android app and iOS app.

Works flawlessly in my experience ( Linux/macbook/android).

No experience with iphones, but I assume it is fully supported.

I think you greatly overestimate the average person’s ability to understand even the most basic code. Let alone in multiple languages.

Talk about a reverse UNO card.

They dont need to know any commands.

Everything in Linux is point and click. There’s an app store where you’ll find everything you’ll need. You will not need to open the terminal at all. All drivers will get installed through the OS.

Only things which do not work are the keyboard software and stuff to map macros to your keys and/or mouse buttons ans tweak the colours. Like the Razor software.

Distros like Ubuntu, popos, Linux mint are incredibly beginner friendly. There are, without a doubt, others.

They didn’t need to know any cmd/powershell commands using windows and they definitely don’t need to know how to use a Linux terminal to browse/mail/install software on Linux.

We do this to find criminals, drugsdealers, paedophiles and terrorists. MEPS are never part of any of those groups.

Rules for thee and not for me.

Well. Now seems to be a good time to be ashamed to be Belgian.

Shameful politicians :(

Windows: does something privacy invading bad

Google: why didn’t I think of that? Hold my beer

There’s also the option of setting up a cloudflare tunnel and only exposing immich over that tunnel. The HTTPS certificate is handled by cloudflare and you’d need to use the cloudflare DNS name servers as your domains name servers.

Note that the means cloudflare will proxy to you and essentially become a man-in-the-middle. You – HTTPS --> cloudflare --http–> homelab-immich. The connection between you and cloudflare could be encrypted as well, but cloudflare remains the man-in-the-middle and can see all data that passes by.

And fucking fine them to infinity for it. Why would they not do something like this again if all they have to do is say “my bad bro”.

I mean my Asus router models aren’t supported by merlin. Only 1 of them functions as an actual router.

But that’s the point. You, the 15 year old, never click or see the box. Your data is harvested because somebody somewhere else agreed to it.

It’s like giving any website the right to farm your data because somebody else on the same shared IP clicked accept all.

I’m also totally okay not having to send any identity data over the net. I fully agree there. It’s just their standpoint of “let an admin click it and we can farm everybody’s data behind that device” seems like a very unstable legal standpoint.

Then again. I’m not a lawyer and the law doesn’t work based on how lawful i feel something is or should be.

I’d rather update it as well. But the routers are behind my ISP router and aren’t externally accessible. The attack surface is smaller in that regard. I’m not happy with the thought of an unpatched router. Maybe I can hold out long enough for merlin to support my routers.

I dont think the latest few updates I did mentioned any security updates. Only bugfixes.

I’ll tackle the problem when it presents itself I guess.

Routers aren’t supported by merlin unfortunately :(

Is the train of thought that if the adult approves they can harvest data from minors regardless? It harvests data from anybody using the internet, not just person handling the settings. It doesn’t seem legal that the data harvest agreement binds all users in a household rather than the one managing the settings?

Is that legal in Europe? is it legal to suddenly semi brick a device if you dont allow them to data harvest? Is it really considered giving consent freely when the device you paid $$ for suddenly no longer does 90% because you disagree with sudden data harvest practices?

I can understand a feature not working because you disagree on sharing something. E.g: can’t tell you which pizza place is near you if you dont share your location.

But this? I hope it’s illegal and they get sued into oblivion for this. This is super invasive.

Same :(

I guess I’m not updating my routers anymore then. Sucks though. It seemed to be the only Asus product that wasn’t garbage.

Oh I thought the cloud game pass wasn’t Xbox games only. But that is entirely possible.
