Signal Private Messenger is free open source, works on everything. Your grandma could use this.

I have slowly migrated all of my friends and family to this over the last few years.

All of the big ‘encrypted’ messengers like WhatsApp or Facebook Messenger use the Signal Protocol under the hood but insert their own shady business and tracking defeating a lot of the purpose.

There are other perhaps more anonymous options like SimpleX or XMRchat but they are not practical nor needed for most threat models.

Matrix is not quite mature enough but is a better option than discord for gaming communities.

Signal everyday. I would not recommend Telegram. DYOR.


My APAP machine has a sim card and unless I am careful to not disable airplane mode every time I start it up, it will send all of my health data to company that I have signed no agreement with.

I explicitly declined to agree to the privacy policy of the company that sold it to me.

If I find my data in a breach, lawyers will be involved.


For anyone struggling to parse the graph as I was: look at the red bars below the photos. The photos are irrelevant from the data.



I’ve been really satisfied with Alterna in Ontario for the last decade.


I’m holding my breath for Deadlock to bring my MOBA and shooter field groups together.


I got back to Grim Dawn all the time.

I’m excited for Fangs of Asterkarn!


We need a digital seed library with the crispr ready DNA of various seeds for pirates (humans that need to eat) to archive.


I won’t be voting for the Liberal party again unless they give us the electoral reform they promised us and didn’t deliver when they had a majority government.

I’m hopeful for a strong NDP opposition to a Conservative minority.


I sold my switch as soon as the original SD was announced. Just got my OLED in the mail and couldn’t be happier; easily the best console experience I’ve ever had.


It provides security to the network and gives them more power over the price.





This is how I buy all of my single player games.

If anyone hasn’t tried it, highly recommend ‘demoing’ Outer Wilds.


Fallout 76.

The game is really fun now. Only downside is the monetization (subscription model for infinite storage space)

Even better with friends in my opinion.


You mentioned LoL. Dota 2 is really fun if you guys haven’t tried it, highly recommend. Biggest thing to get used to compared to LoL is the movement (most heroes have a turn speed)


I think Flatpak or AppImages would be a more appropriate distribution method, as much as I love nix and flakes.


It’s because it’s the easiest way for car manufacturers to harvest and sell your data to third parties.


So was the guy with the swastika flag at the freedom convoy.


If anything comes of this and we get a comprehensive single payer system it will so many positive effects as we adjust over the course of a decade.

Something that not many people consider is the effect on business owners and labour:

business owners will have a lower overhead for their employees insurance

Labour unions will have better bargaining power because of this cost reduction.


If he knew about the fediverse, he would have to make internet access illegal to have the amount of power he wants the feds to have, lmao.



The BoCs mandate is to manage inflation, regardless of any excessive federal spending.


Just tried it and am liking it more than the Jerboa app. Any other webapp solutions?
