ironic to host this on a US service

because printers are evil

you can also just check dpkg -L $installed_package_name | grep /etc/apt/ to find files that would have been installed by the package there.

I think this is zerobytes.monster, one of the reddit mirror instances.

the post count fits and it also matches with the user count not significantly dropping.

that instance has been using rather strict waf blocking rules from time to time that likely also affect the crawler for fediverse.observer.

the second link is just incorrectly linked in the comment, as the colon is included in it. it should be https://www.auswaertiges-amt.de/de/reiseundsicherheit/suedsudansicherheit-244250

not a very informed comment.

torrents have checksums, you can’t just send someone incorrect parts, they’ll get rejected.

In Germany 10 packs are common

you asked why it happens so often, I provided a possible explanation.

just yesterday we had a similar case where a usb ethernet adapter wouldn’t work on a locked device due to a similar issue, even if that one may be more logical.

especially when you have to follow an outdated password policy where people have to change their passwords at regular intervals you’ll have such cases more frequently than when they only need to set it once until a suspected compromise.

the larger a company the more cases you’ll have in absolute numbers, even if the relative numbers stay the same

the token is completely tied to your account.

you can access part of your account info/settings with that as well, a while back they added an extra password prompt to some of that.

truly anonymous searches are simply impossible unfortunately. while they claim they’re not logging any searches it’s impossible to verify.

lemmy does have a regex based slur filter that replaces matched words with removed

this one was likely caught by lemmy.ml if it was indeed the variant ending in nny, as that one is in their slur filter.

maybe add a note that the link is nsfw

that would explain the google fine in russia

just this week I’ve had multiple random matrix accounts start a chat with me to post an Imgur link with some Hitler bs. I assume they just chose random members of one or more fediverse related public matrix rooms to send that to. they probably just do this with random public rooms and the fediverse relation didn’t matter.

that’s odd, my (indirect, reported by others) experience with GlobalProtect on Linux was mostly fine, although when using SAML it only really works with the GUI version and not the CLI version

it doesn’t seem to be server specific because once prompted there is no way to use the account again, even if you decided to just not use a server that may have these settings set.

no, you’re also effectively locked out of any participation unless you provide an email address and phone number, which they won’t even tell you about in advance but use dark patterns and gaslighting that they noticed “suspicious activity” to step by step first ask you for an email and then once that is validated they prompt you for a phone number. the only thing they don’t do yet is ask for ID.

yes, there are various other browsers still supporting proper ad blocking

I can sell you a copy of lemmys source code, are you interested?

you can enable end to end encryption, it’s optional. I don’t think it’s enabled by default.
