Memes@lemmy.ml•The history of electoralismEnglish
27·10 days agoFor many liberals having elections is the highest political priority.
So electoralism working is a tautology for them.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Printers leave a watermark on each page indicating the exact printer that it came from. Are there any other examples of these privacy violations that aren't common knowledge?English
7·13 days agoAnd they can do that based on the way your write text posts too, so probably not worth worrying about camera sensor fingerprinting too much.
Just don’t post about your insurrection plans on public forums in general, with or without photos.

But pictures can also be traced back to a camera based on irregularities in the camera sensor https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/tracing-photos-back-to-the-camera-that-snapped-them/
Unlike with the printers, there is probably no database of the CMOS sensor irregularities of all cameras ever made. But if you upload pictures under your government name and the take pictures with the same camera and share them anonymously, this could be traced back to you in theory.

Open Source@lemmy.ml•What will you do after Android starts restricting FOSS apps?English
3·19 days agoI’m already on LinageOS because my phone used to crash multiple times a day with the Android from Samsung.
I hope LineageOS will patch it out.
Of course this helps only so much when further diminishes the interest in F-droid or when Google decide to block chat apps and I can’t use them with friends who aren’t willing to install a different OS on their phone.

China@lemmygrad.ml•Most people in China don’t use Email, but why?English
14·20 days agoI’ve heard the same thing of Gen Z no longer wanting to work full time in Europe. I wonder how much there is to it.
I like e-mail as a concept, as a widely used federated protocol. In practice it’s pretty trash because every single company I ever interacted with feels like it needs to give me at least weekly updates.
The culture of interpersonal e-mail communication with formal greetings, closing line, signature sucks. Reading an email conversation that is 20% formalities, 75% signatures and 5% content is so annoying. And people are tought this shit at school.

Privacy@lemmy.ml•Europe’s cookie law messed up the internet. Brussels wants to fix it.English
13·1 month agoJust make companies respect the do not track flag I can select in the browser.
Denmark (currently presiding over meetings in the Council of the European Union) suggested in May to drop consent banners for cookies collecting data “for technically necessary functions”
That already doesn’t require consent
or “simple statistics."
Also doesn’t require consent, when the statistics are anonymous.


It’s only a problem when people spam the same links to all of these communities. As long as the content is somewhat unique I happily subscribe to multiple communities with the same name on multiple instances.
